Players Often Forget to

Earnest Actors Make a Hit Sometimes in Slap Scenes

Fake Blows

And Send Victims Reeling Off Sets

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 26 (UP)—Occasionally in movie slapping scenes the actors make a mistake. They really slap the other person. Producers generally try to conduct the business with as little wear as possible on their actors’ million-dollar bodies. But sometimes an actor is working so hard he doesn’t stop to fake things. Laraine Day is supposed to slip Dane Clark, who plays her
