I have also not married at all, as well as in church. I have even married in Hollywood. You have no idea how irksome alimony can become. The rumors of a crack in my current wedlock are absolutely false. We are as happy as two people can he. We adore each other. Well, if you insist, it's true—but we're still good friends. We are parting because we love each other too much to inflici each other’s presence on each other. I will never marry again. I think marriage and a career are impossible, and I'm sure there is no reason why two intellizent people in the same profession can't get along. One actor in the family is enough, I always say. I loathe gossip—but have you heard what they’re saying about . .. ? no cothers. I am a he-man, and I take off my shirt at every oppor- tunity. I am an intellectual, and T keep my hirt on, Brains at long last are coming into their own on the screen. Audiences want subtleties, not brawn. When I flex my muscles the femmes faint in the aisles. I am a lug, and a gentleman, and a scholar, and a fool for luck. I worked my way up from the bottam, and I played all the tank towns, and then again I was handsome and debonair, and they said you-ought-to-be-in-pictures, and I believed them. I am a great artist, and I live my roles, and I am just a mugg trying to get along. 1 strive to please, and I live for you and by your leave. 1 am a composite Hollywood actor. |um|mmmmlmmmmmumnnmmmmmlmmumnmmmuu||||m | that tax income has fallen some | 750,000 short of estimated reve-| nues, Rep.
