Hollywood—Monty Wooley, u»-
ually a cantankerous crab on the
screen, is mild and gentle off it
—until he talks of picture-acting.
“The tension of it,” boomed The
Beard, waving clenched fists, just
drives you nuts.”
A brief scene the other day in
“Will You Love Me in December?"
Gave him a headache. "1 haven’t
felt well In some time,” he con-
fided upon returning to his can-
vas-hacked chair. "I’m not going
to tell you why.” Another source
said It’s kidney trouble.
I asked The Man Who Came To
Didder—-the role he played so
notably on stage and screen—If
he liked theater-acting better.
"It’s so much easier,” he said.
"In pictures, if you say one single
word different from the script,
they say "Cut! Start over!" And
1,200 people have to walk out
and come in again while you do
it.
"They’re very nice about it,
but you have the feeling they’re
thinking, “Oh, for heaven's sake,
is he ever going to get it right?"
Some h(4#ts are impervious to
that; they don’t care. They’re
much happier people than people
like myself.”
The current picture argues
against arbitrary dismissal of
workers when they reach 65.
iWoollcy, who’s 62, believes in
that message. "In my dialogue,”
he beamed, ”1 ask, "What about
Winston Churchill (76) and Gen-
eral Marshall (70)?"
For the first time, Monty dyes
his 22-year-old heard in his pre-
sent role—a rich brown; he’s sup-
posed to he in disguise. He grew a
mustache — now imperious und
pointed—in his senior year at
Yale. The beard was added later
"for no particular reason,” though
a studio biography claims it was
inspired hy a revered and heavily
beavered professor. That old ques-
tion—does he sleep with it under
or on top of the rovers—-draws a
scornful and stock reply from
Woolley: "The first man asked it
Huge Conversion
ob Tackled
By Retail Stores
Washington, Feb. 28 — More
than 200,000 retail stores which!
aeil clothing or house furnishings j
tackle a huge conversion today—
changing their system of priori
controls. The Office of Price Stab-
ilization has given each retailer
until March 29th to unfreeze pres-
ent prices and, instead freeze the |
percentage of "markup” or “mar-|
gin” between what he pays and
what he gets for each article. Ba-
sically, the order is to allow the j
stores to make their normal per- j
centage of profit. It's a complex \
job and some higher prices appear j
certain as the retailers pass 'along
price hikes by wholesalers. But, ini
the long run, some other prices
may come down to put inflated
margins bark to normal. Some I
200,000 items are affected.
Nobody in authority even pre-
tends to know exactly what will l
happen. When Price Director Mi-j
chad DiSalle was asked which
will be the greater—price increases
or deductions—he laughed and
said: “We have a pool on this in
the office.” Then PISalle added j
that it was his "guess” that price j
cuts will he greater, but he readily
conceded: "This is not a view shar-
ed by others in the (price stabili-1
zation) agency.”
