‘Mickey Has

' Actor Has a Girl, An Orchesira and ‘Writes Songs. By PAUL HARRISON HOLLYWOOD, June 10.—NEA—

Try as he will, Mickey Rooney is having a tough time growing up.

Having been a [child actor for about |

15 years, he’s afraid| that he is in danger of being typed. | Kid stuff! Why, he'll be 17 years old next September, and that’s al~most college age. He has a girl, a dance orchestra, a football team, .and some tennis trophies. He writes songs and plays the piano and is a pal of W. S. Van Dyke. | So what? So Magter Rooney is still a child actor. I; isn’t that he .minds his roles so much; several times he almost has had a chance to act his age, as| in “Captains Courageous.” But people continue to ‘think of him as a kid, and in five years he’ll be a movie director. Well, an assistant director, anyway. Look at the way he has to pose for pictures: At a blackboard, doing percentages. Nufs! Rooney can figure an income tax return! Or they take him outdoors and snap him playing golf or basebdll with his pants rolled up to his knees to look like knickers. | To his knees, mind you! And Rooney has been wearing long pants| ever since, at the age of 22 months, he appeared “on the stage in a tuxedo.

‘Wrote Song

They take pictures of him drink- + ing milk and eating spinach. They shoot him at a pian, and the music placed before him is a ditty called “When I Grow to Be a Man.” And that is the guy who has written a slow fox trot titled “Mister Heartbreak” which has heen accepted for publication by Irving Berlin. Master Rooney's great sorrow is his brief~stature. He's only 5 feet 1 inch tall. When hg isn’t working in ~a picture he gets a bristling military haircut that sticks straight up and makes him look about an inch taller. He measures himself every morning on the wall of the shower at” home, but the mark doesn’t seem to move much. He cuts quite & swath in studio sub-deb circles, buf his best gal is “ Margaret Marquis, who appeared . with him in “A Family Affair.” He . took Judy Garlan¢ to the premiere of “Captains Courzgeous,” but that was just one of those [synthetic ro- . mances hatched by the publicity department. In the M-G-M schoolhouse he sits

ACTOR GIVES NEW TWIST TO FILM

XE

Lyric tomorrow.

-

Pat O'Brien about to give a new twist to some high-tension drama in “Slim,” a picture about electric power linesmen which comes to the

opera singer recenily put under contract. She’s the only other pupils of his own age. He's always organizing something. During football season he heads a team called the Blue Devils. Director Clarence Brown sponsors it and Rooney plays center, guard, or quarterback as the spirit moves him.

The dance orchestra was his idea, and the 11 other members—no actors among them-—are all under 20. Rooney makes faces and waves the baton. Now and then he'll take over the piano or swing a slide trombone. Reminds you of Buddy Rogers. The band is in demand for school parties. and Rooney is making quite a good thing out of it. His real name is Joe Yule Jr. Joe Senior was a vaudeville come-| dian and Mrs. Yule, with whom Mickey now lives, was a dancer. When Mickey was 2, Al Smith, then

New York’s governor, issued a special permit for him to work on the stage. He was signed for the movies at 4, playing the role of a midget in “Not to Be Trusted.” In his second picture, “Orchids and Ermine,” he also portrayed a midget and had to smoke a cigar. . During the past 18 months he appeared in 40 pictures. Doesn’t think much of himself as an actor, but he expects to do all right when he gets to bossing the stars around.
