She held out a long time for ithe' veto power over her stories. Failing in this, she seems to have adopted a course of pass- ive resistance. Through it all, her passion for privacy is growing more and more pronounced. She hates, perhaps more than any star I know, the publicity that goes with her posi- tion. Eventually, I pelieve, these resentments will drive her back to the stage—and a long time before her welcome with film audiences | is worn out. start in about And Sc¢ They Called Him Tony Here's a bit of lowdown on how Hollywood's most famous horse get his name.
