We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Jean Puts Glamour Aside IN PLAYING the role of Phoebe Titus, first white woman pioneer to figure in the Apache state's history, Jean Arthur has discarded all the magic of make-up relying on soap, water and the great outdoors to add to her natural beauty. Columbia Pictures, in spending close to $2,000,000 on this western classic, filmed it in its entirety in its authentic locale on a mile-square reconstructed Old Tucson, 14 miles from the present city. Above left: William Holden plays Peter Muncie, who falls in love with Jean and finally wins her hand in marriage. Above right: The temperature was 120 in the sun as this was taken. Right: Jean, an expert horsewoman, needed no double for the riding scenes. Beloiv: With Producer-Director Wesley Ruggles between scenes of "Arizona." 66 Silver Screen
