swers. "Some of my friends have wondered why I didn t try something different instead of copying Miss Fontanne. But why shouldn’t I copy her in the matter of the wig? She is a great actress and she was very successful in the role. We are enough different, anyway, for the portrayals not to be too much alike. Norma loves this heroine for the very reason that she is a fake. “Most of the characters I have played have been sincere," she says. "According to my ideas, being sincere means being simple. But, as this girl, I’m permitted some tricks. It’s fun for a change.'

We visit “The Castles” set and find Ginger Rogers, dressed in a black clown's costume, doing an imitation of Bessie McCoy s famous Yama Yama number Fred Astaire, wrapped in a flannel bathrobe, is watching. The scene is the living room of Ginger's house in New Jersey and the two, who are later to become America’s most famous ballroom dancing team, have just met. Fred has to watch Ginger s performance because he has gotten soaked and his clothes are drying in another r °G?nger not only sings the Yama Yama number, but accompanies it with splits, cartwheels and high kicks* When she Is through, Fred applauds politely. . Ginger makes faces and rubs the muscles in her right thigh. “Those high kicks have about given me a Charley horse, she savs. "And I’U have you know that’s the first time I’ve ever done * Being a Ginger Rogers Is no cinch. While the rest of us wander off to lunch, she has to go get a massage. We catch Astaire on the way out and ask if the polkas ; the tangos the Maxixes and the Castle Walks of this picture will be easier than the swing rhythms and the trick numbers he and Ginger have done in their other pictures. "No dancing is easy, he replies Fred was a great admirer of Vernon Castle, but never met him. The Castles reached their peak of fame about 1916, and Fred and his shster Adele, didn't attain stardom fn their own shows until around 1923 The two teams, of course, were noted for different things. The Castles primarily were ballroomdancer.. The Astaires were musical comedy dancers.
