more articulate, also! Finding the words to describe your feelings is another adventure I wouldn't miss. In New York this last time. I went out with a television director for awhile. Then with a stockbroker. Then with a successful man in the clothing business. I adapted to their kind of dates, rather than dragging them to show business hang-outs. And they spoiled me with their manners. Now. the character who takes it for granted he's doing you such a favor by calling you seems a bore. I'm independent by nature, not very helpless. But how I adore the game of becoming more feminine the minute a gentleman hovers on my horizon! One particular date I missed in Manhattan gave me more physical courage. I was there during their last hurricane. The windows in my hotel room were broken by the blasts of wind. I ran out to Fifth Avenue, where it was raining so violently I almost had to crawl on my hands and knees to get back inside. But I shouldn't have been so scared that I cancelled my dinner date at La Rue's for that night. In a few hours the weather had changed incredibly, and it was calm. I was left all alone in my hotel room, hating myself for having been so afraid. One day. while looking for an apartment to lease with a girl friend ( and we'd just located a good deal on East 44th Street/ I received a call to start back for Hollywood in eight hours to report at RKO for "Two Tickets To Broadway." While making the picture. I became good friends with Janet Leigh. Gloria De Haven and Ann Miller. We had lunch together almost every day. went to each other's houses for dinner, and made fancy plans to fly to Nassau and Acapulco for a grand holiday. Which proves once more that the asserted cutthroat competition in Hollywood does not turn human beings into monsters. An actress's picture schedule is her bugaboo, though. At dinner at Lucey's with Gloria (when she and I were both made W as' Indians and dumbfounded the Sensational New Scientifically Designed p°enT BRAS for LARGE • MEDIUM • SMALL BUSTS Correct and Flatter Your Individual Bust Problems INSTANTLY! on Free io-Day Trial!

Evelyn Keyes and Joseph Cotten play zither at "Third Man" radio rehearsal. mere civilians), we both agreed that it would be pathetic if we lost track of one another. We hurried back to the studio for night shots, resolved to keep in close touch. Then, my new girl friends all went right into different films, and not one of them was free to so much as fly to nearby Palm Springs with me! I like living at home with my mother and step-father. We get along very well, probably because they're so understanding. I appreciate mother's knack with the household. Since she's been producing her own radio show while I've been growing out of my teens, she has an accurate notion of what's wanted of me as an actress, ^"hen the folks took a leisurely vacation 1 rip to Jamaica recently, I dreaded being left alone. So I had some dates to distract me! My most interesting dates are the ones that have taught me there is so much one can do in spite of the hectic commotion beyond our individual control. I see now that the more resources I develop from within myself, the more assured Til be. I haven't found the man to marry. Should I despair, or go out every night to prove to disinterested onlookers that I'm "popular"? I don't think so. I'm not discouraged. Actually, I'm not ready to settle down. yet. Now that I recognize the real responsibilties a wife and husband have I'm not going to rush into marriage again. I'm astonished by girls who look at a man as only a free dinner date. I'd rather earn my dinner than be mercenary. I won't go out unless I can be interested in the occasion and the man. I still speak flippantly and relish fast repartee, but running away from a person who's so stuffy he or she obviously is a square doesn't put me in the flighty class today. / like to be taken seriously. I still have my little problems. I'm dying to win a certain part in which I'll play an Italian. I could wear a dark wig that'd do wonders. I wouldn't have to wisecrack. But the producer in charge has no imagination, and I'm stymied. Letter writing remains a sad thing with me. I just can't write a letter unless it's a love letter. Then I'm a bad correspondent, for I don't put down my pen. I write seven letters a day, I'm so gushy. I'm so convinced everyone should be in love that I enthusiastically throw in even the hammiest soap opera phrases I've heard on my radio. The extremes to which I go give me 67
