During his stay in Hollywood, Jack Moffett, Kansas City newspaperman, won a reputation as a practical joker. His most famous exploit led to hot words between two studios. It seems that Jack and a fellow scenarist passed by a night location where another company was filming some explosion shots. Jack got out of the car, announced he ' was from the sheriff’s office and ’ demanded to see the permit for ’ the explosions. ! He held up production for ali most an hour and then obligingly ' told the frantic assistant to go ahead. t Unfortunately, one of the elec- ' tricians on the set recognized . Jack’s companion. The next day, wires burned between the two studios.
