Brooklyn, and the National Boxs Hollywood Sights And Sounds By fBablia Cooas HOLLYWOOD, Cal, May 13.—Cary Grant is reading a news- paper, and obligingly turning his profile this way and that. He's being sketched—not by Carole Lombard, as you'll be asked to believe when you see “Memory of Love"—but by Hectot Scerbaroli. Miss Lombard is playing a designer who sketches (or maybe it's a sketcher with designs on Grant) but Miss Lombard isn’t even on the set as she does her sketching. Sketching, so far as I know, is not among the many Lombard talents. But it doesn't matter because Hector is here. Hector is Hollywood's Michaelangelo. He has been on hand, painting and drawing by proxy, about 15 years. He has no idea how many portraits he has done for screen use. One of the most recent was that of Irene Dunne (sup- posedly painted by Charles Boyer) in “Love Affair” His prices have ranged from $3 an hour for simple sketches to $200 for a single quickly done portrait. Art may be long but it’s quick-time in the movies. Sometimes Hector's paintings have been delivered, photo~ graphed, and stored in studio prop rooms before the paint has dried—which requires 24 hours or more, It was not always thus with Signor Scerbaroli, He was born in Rome, began studying art when he was 15 at the Academy of St. Luke. He came to America in 1913 and began bninung a huge panorama of Marin County (Calif.) for the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition at San Francisco. For 10 years he had his own studio in San Francisco, and then he spent two years doing murals at William Randolph Hearst’s San Simeon estates, Then to Holly- itdoesn’tmatter.... which side of the bed you get out . . . after a breakfast at Percy’s you're sure fo be set for a big, glorious day . . . PERCY’S wood—and except when heé went to Texas to do murals for the Dallas Centennial, he has been here ever since. He is lean, neat, dresses like everybody else—no long hair, no flowing black tie, no half-starved artistic look. Excitable, though, sometimes, if you can believe his studio associates. (But who, in a movie madhouse, isn't?) 'One of his toughest assign- ments was & rush order for a portrait of H. B. Warner. The artist worked on it all night from photographs, then Warfier came at dawn to sit for an hour, and the portfait was ready on time, Craftsmanship? 1It’s the samé for movies, He says, as for non- movie work. Maybe it calls for more speed, confidence, and' ve satility. ‘Versatility for instance, thdt erablés him to “forge"— for movie purposes—the works of most of the masters. He has “done” several Hollywood célebrities in ofls for thelr homes. Bette Davis, Dick Powell, Phyllis Haver, Al Santell have pald him from $800 to $1,000 apiece for poftraits. If you dine in 20th Century-Fox's Cafe de Paris, youll see more of Hector's work on'the walls—45 big turals of the stars. His best stellar ‘subject he'considers Bette Davis, who sits quietly and is interested in' his work. His' worst (hé 'has painted her six times and probably will have to do her several times more) is a young star who “wiggles and squirms.” Now that Shirley Temple is 10, however, she’ll ,brobably sit quietly. o e
