Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Rabbia Ceens HOLLYWOOD, Cal., March 18.—Hollywood is full of lunatics. A guy, for instance, who can’t be happy on $4,500 a week. A guy who chucks it overboard, when it's coming in regularly, 52 weeks a year, just so he can be happy. Youve heard of him, and he’s not in a padded cell. He's in jail, though. He's working his poor head off in the ‘twine mills of a big prison—even though it’s just the movie prison of “Each Dawn I Die.” His name is Raft. George, you know. That one. The one who always didn't wanna play—and kept on balking until finally the whole deal blew up, happily for all concerned. It's funny, though. They said he balked at playing gnnfister roles—and yet the first role he takes when he’s free to take one (away from Paramount) is a gangster role. George says it isn't quite true—about his hating gangster roles. It's true he didn't like certain kinds of gangster roles. It’s this way: “I playeed a gangster in ‘Scarface.’ I killed 14 people, but the audience felt sorry for me when the picture was done. Now I'm playing an underworld big shot, a four-time loser who goes to prison with a 199-year sentence. But this hard, tough con has redeeming qualities. He's the product of vicious environment, and in the end he does a fine, decent thing. He goes back to prison to save a pal he knows is square.” He says he draws the line at gangsters who are all bad and we’re in a rut—— and darned glad of it . . . it doesn't matter {o us what happens or who is kicking up a fuss . . . we just go right on serving the best meals in Juneau. Percy’s die rats. He can't afford to sacrifice audience sympathy, have people pay money simply to hate him. “Lot of people may think, from what they've heard, that I'm a hard guy to deal with. I don’t think I'm that, but I guess I am a peculiar cuss. I like to be happy. I've been called all kinds of a chump for kicking over a fat contract. Some of my friends have been inclined to doubt my sanity. Well, what good was that money coming in every Wednesday when I couldn't be happy in what I was doing? I'd a darn sight rather have far less and be at peace mentally.” And there was another point of friction, to hear Raft tell it. He wanted to work with other stars, let them help carry the pictures. He liked especially that “Souis at Sea” with Gary Cooper. “Look at it this way,” he says. “In New York, for instance— suppose there’s Cagney and O’Brien in ‘Angels with Dirty Faces.’ And up the street there’s ‘Gunga Din’ with Grant, Fairbanks and MecLaglen running competition, and then another house has Gable and Shearer in ‘Idiot’s Delight’ You know the companies do that— meet strong opposition with their best pictures. Well, suppose there’s a picture of mine, with only the name of Raft up in lights, playing against that type of competition. What chance have I got? - T'm not that big a star and I know it. One of the reasons I signed for this part was that I'd be working with Cagney. . ..” And I figure up. Just $4,500 a week, 52 weeks a year. It's $234,000. . . . But Friend George is happy, so what?
