(Joha Rich &Bros.). | veteran | 7:30 to 10:30 It was agreed by all che acums‘,, Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons PR HOLLYWOOD, Cal,, Oct. 5.—This is the sad story of Anthony Allen, a young actor whose career was brief and glorious. Before I met Anthony — who didn't exist long enough to be addressed familiarly as Tony — he was pointed out to me as a comer. That was on the set of “Dramatic School,” a picture about I forget just what. Anthony, they said in hushed voices, had “just come out” and here he was playing a second lead in a big picture with Luise Rainer and Paulette Goddard. He was on his way, oh, definitely. T must meet him, so I did, and we shook hands and before you could say How Come You're a Comer, or even before you could snee: the director called him and Anthony Allen said “Excuse Me I never saw or heard of Anthony Allen again. Anthony is no more, His career was glorious, I say, in d)e sense that he never got a bad notice. T don’t remember him in “Dramatic School,” but then I don't remember much about “Dramatic Sehool” either. “Anthony Allen,” said John Hubbard the other day, “should never have been called a comer. No actor’s a comer unless the public decides he is, in its own good time. And he hadn't ‘just come out’ — he was brought out here from Chicago by Para- mount. He was one of the boys in stock. His first picture was “The Buccaneer. He was the fellow who sailed on his honey- moon with Louise Campbell in the ship that was lost. “He'd known Louise back in Chicago — they'd both worked in the theatre there — and it was good meeting her again, even though he didn’'t know her at first in her make-up. Well, he PERCY’S CAFE (] STOP AT PERCY'S CAFE Breakfast. Dinner or Light Lunches * DELICIOUS FOOD . I‘OU!H‘AIN SERVICE did that one and that was the end — at Paramount. He was just one of the boys in stock — Robert Cummings was another then— getting nowhere. So he got out and his agent landed him at Metro. : “That was where Mervyn LeRoy changed his name to An- thony Allen (for good luck, because he’'d just done ‘Anthony Adverse’ by Hervey Allen) and where he did ‘Dramatic School.’” John Hubbard, 26, is now the hero of “Who Killed Aunt Maggie?” the comedy mystery by Medora Field. He is also the world’s greatest living authority on the late Anthony Allen. He was Anthony Allen. “Mervyn LeRoy, who was sponsoring me at Metro, had a musical scheduled,” he says. “I didn't fit in, and Mervyn was frank in telling me I'd be better off to go on my own. They transferred my contract to Hal Roach, who changed my name to John — it’s really Jack — Hubbard, and put me to work. We just finished Road Show' there, and he’s loaned me to Republic for this one. . . .” The story of Anthony Allen isn't sad. Jack Hubbard, son of a big steel executive in East Chicago, always wanted to be an actor. His dad scowled, but when he was 18 Jack issued his declaration of independence. In four years at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago he did at least 100 plays, finally made a booster or his dad and wound up in Hollywood. [ €.
