2 UNIVERSAL WEEKLY . Nov. 4. 1933 MARGARET No. 746 Straight-from-the-Shoulder Talk by Carl Laemmie, President of the Universal Pictures Corporation Miss Sullavan, I am old in the picture business. I date away back to the days when there was no such thing as a feature-length picture; to the days when folks saw two reels of picture with a piano and drum accompaniment for fire cents. That goes back about 28 years. Miss Sullavan. In all those years I have developed a great many of the screen's greatest stars. Perhaps I did not develop them. But at least I gave them their opportunity to develop themselves. Most of them forgot it. Miss Sullavan, and were easily lured away from me by more money than I could afford to pay them. So much for the past. I do not remember any one of them. Miss Sullavan, who showed greater promise and greater ability in her first picture than you show in ''Only Yesterday." To say that I am proud of you is to put it very, very weakly.
