‘Hiring 5 Film Girls | Tough Job

By VIRGINIA MacPHERSON

United Press Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOQOD, Nov, 22 — A young bachelor ‘Who drew the job of hiring six girls to play vestal virgins in a movie said today it took seven weeks—and made him 1000 enemies, *I still blush when I think

_ about it,” Jus Addis said. “Almost

every girl in Hollywood tried out for those six parts.” >

RKO producer Gabriel Pascal i»

got him into .this fix when he sent out the following bulletin: “Wanted: Starlets for six vestal virgins for ‘Androcles and the Lion' Must be of classic beauty of face and figure with an aura of spirituality. Only young women who can exude delicacy with dignity are suitable.” When the calls started coming in. Mr, Pascal tossed the ball to Mr. Addis, whose regular job is dialog director on the picture. “I'm still single at 34,” Mr. Addis grinned. “Guess he figured I was his man.” Jus says there was more “fuss and furor” raised over these six parts than any role since Scarlett O'Hara. “They were only paid $15.56 each for half a day's work,” he said, “The virgins are on the screen maybe 20 seconds. And they don’t have a single line of dialog between em.”

Wecunded Know What to Be Thankful for Today

By KEYES BEECH } TOKYO, Nov. 22 (CDN)—You might think the wounded would be bitter this Phanksgiving. But you would be wrong. More than most men they know what they have to be thankful for. Take Pvt. Julio Carrera, 23, Richmond, Cal, a darkly handsome youth who was lying in bed listening to the radio when 1 found him at a nearby Army hospital. ; “What have I to be thankful for?’ said Pvt. Carrera. “I'll tell you. I'm thankful for this arm.” ,Bvt, Carrera slowly opened and closed the fingers of his stiff right hand. "This arm is gonna be okay." he said. “It was the funniest thing

when I got hit. When I came to I couldn't find my. arm. I thought I'd lost it of my head. “I said to- my buddy, ‘Hey where's my arm’. He says, ‘here's your arm,) Julle’ and he put it back where it belongs.” ” n ” OR TAKE Pfc. Merle H. Yttri 24, of Kirkland, Wash “TI was doing all right until I stuck ‘my head up at. the wrong time. I got it right here.” Pfc. Yttri put his finger on his chest. “But I'm thankful I'm not in Korea,” said Pfc, Yttri. “Me, I'm thankful just to be alive,” said Pfc. Ralph A. Ubl, 19, a big redhead from New Ulm, Minn. . Like others with whom I

itsvas somewhere back

talked Pfe. Ubl was hit more than a month ago.

" o n M/SGT, JACOB SALISBERY, 27, Sumter, 8. C., a tank commander, was standing ereet in his tank turret when an enemy bullet hit him in the chest. That was back in September. “My job is fighting a war, not to think about why we're fighting it,” said Sgt. Salisbery. “I guess somebody knows why we're fighting this one. Anyhow, I'm thankful for another chance.” " o u PVT. HERBERT BARBOZA, 23.'of Honolulu, was thankful that his wife has safely delivered a 6pound boy. Pfc. James E. McFarland, 18,

Hutchinson, Kas. was thankful that the bullet that entesed his

chest missed his heart by half an’

inch. A tow-headed kid with a halfmoon, incision reaching from his chest To his back was about to tell how he was hit charging up a hill when Cpl. Theodore~ Davis, 21 Akron, O., interrupted: “Just a minute. If you're going to tell that story I'll go get your steel helmet.” Spl. Davis was hit in so many places the other fellows call him “Scars” for short. What's Scars thankful for? “That I've got enough poi rotate,” he said. ‘Main Street,

here I come.”
