HOLLYWOOD, Cal., D¢ 4. —It's good asn't forgotten. She's Doris Davenport -— the ex to find a girl who made neod. You probably saw her opposite Gary Cooper e Wesierner” If you live in Dallas or Fort Worth, Tex., you may hav er at premieres there, taking bows and handing out autog and being treated like an established celebrity. If you Hol- lyweod, you have seen girls lose their heads over ge Lalf the attention she's had. And yet today, if you want to get Doris Davenpoii excited, just ask her about extras in general — and their acting ab*ity. “It makes me wild,” she savs. “to the stnd AL everywhere to look for talent — except right here at heme. I know a lot of extras who can act, a lot of girls who are as pretty and capable as 85 per cent of those they bring from New York. But nobedy can see them. One thing sl the New York girls have is confidence — and Hollywood atkes all the confidence away from its own girls.” spa Doris started, at 15, in the chorus of Eddie Cantor’s “Kid Million” at Goldwyn’s. Cantor picked her from the line for & bit, and later she got a job in stock at Metro. She was there two years, playing bits and walkons as a glorified extra. And then she left Hollywood in disgust for New York and a job as a John Powers model. Within two weeks she had offers to return to Hollywood but PERCY’S CAFE : ® she declined. Within seven months, however, she was being tested for the role of Scarlett O'Hara. She had assumed the name of Doris Jordan, sure that Hollywodo would lose interest if it learned she had once been an extra. When Selanick asked her to come to Hollywood for tests, she pretended to know nothing of the city, to be unable to find her way to the studio —and then walked on a fest stage where the crew was from Metro, all old friends. “They were swell,” she says. “As soon as I took one of them aside and explained I was trying to put something over, he spread the word around and not one acted as if he'd ever seen me before.” They liked the test, but then Vivien Leigh appeared on the scene. At Goldwyn's she had better luck, for he had seen her Scarlett test and turned her over to William Wyler for tests for “The Westerner.” “Mr. Wyler really took pains with that test,” says Doris. “So ur test is so many tests aren't fair. Getting a good director o important.” It was after the picture started that Doris vealed, Goldwyn didn't care. Today she's oo lcr opposite Lloyd Nolan in “Behind the News” at Republic “And if T find myself stymied in Hollywood agwin'™ si “I'm going right back to New York. That's where they look for talent with their eyes open.™ 1
