JIM, THE ROVER, GIVES TOE HOBO : PLACE ON SCREEN Movie to Seripusly Reflect Life of the Tramp in ;/ Photoplay. By Jack Jnngmeyer NEA Berrir* Writer HOLLYWOOD, July 10.-Jim Tub ly, literate Itinerant among the "Beg gars of Life,” as he dubbed his fellow wayfarere, la giving the hobo a place on the screen., Thus far the hobo, aa the parlance of the road designates the migratory laborer, has received but meager hand outs from the back door of film representations. Asa class and as a character he has been decidedly “Outside Looking In," so presented in a TullyAnderson stage collaboration of laat year. Hobo- roles have been Invarl. ably superficial, and uaually comic. “Passing Strangers" Now Paramount, hnfler the perj suasive urging of Tully's IrisH tongue, and with a specially writteiW story by him In hand, la preparing to deplot seriously the dramotio im port of the Bating workman whose seasonal appearance la the salvation of vast western reglona during harvest time. It will bear the title "Passing Strangers." And Jamea Cruze is likely to direct It. Jim Tully. lashed by insatiable wanderlust, emerged a decade ago from the Irish neighborhood of St. Marys, Ohio, to become in turn a rover, fighter, migratory worker, author and playwright. He has put himself and those among whom he has drifted and tolled Into ‘Taasing Strangers.” Filming of this piece also marks for Jim a cycle In Hollywood. Years ago when he and Wiliam Howard, now a dliector, hoboed to the film town together, Tully expected to carve hla monicker big on the screen. Fired aa Reader He landed a Job as reader, largely because of his picturesque manner, but was promptly fired. For years he dubbed around, doing publicity, plugging tenaciously away at hla first novel, eking out a precarious existence, his writer’s zeal, like hla rod hair, rampant. Hollywood kept track of tha ruddy, bulky little Mick, reading with relish the tangy piece* he wrote about its celebrities, but dubious about employing his trench* ant and often Ironic pen for the movies.
