Cobina Wright, Jr., says it isn't 50. She never was a debutante and besides— “I'm working for a living, the same as any other girl in pictures. I have to work. There was a lot of money once, but it's been gone for years. The pretty blonde daughter of Cobina Wright, Sr., herself long a professional singer, has just won a movie contract. Yowll see her first in “Murder Among Friends.” Cobina feels pretty strongly about the ‘deb” business. “Just because a few girls took up cafe singing as a gag, and did it for a couple of weeks,” sfle says, “it gave us all a bad name. But there are girls like Eve Symington and Ade- | | B £ [ sk same chance. | 1aide Moffatt who really can sing and are earning their living by it. “I was hurt, doing a show with | Eddie Cantor in New York, when I got a note that said “Why don't | you move over and give a working | girl a chance?’ Well, at the time I | | was doing 45 shows a week, and was | in the theatre from 9 a. m. to 1 a. | m. the next day. If that isn't work | I don't know what is.” | Cobina made her first professional 'S | appearance three and a half |ago when she won a singing con- tract at Palm Beach. She appeared | on Broadway with Philip Merivale ‘n “Lorelei” and was with Charlie Chase in trvout engagements of an- other play which, owing to Chase’s | death, never Yeached Broadway. | Cobina, Sr., famous society hos- | tess as well as opera singer, guided Juniors training from the time when | the family milllions — and homes, servants, and yachts — went down | the sink of the depression. | “I want her to be able to stand [ on her own feet and marry whom | she pleases,” says the mother. “I didn’t want her to have to marry a rich boy.” Once Cobina, Jr., said she'd never go into the movies. “But here I am,” she says. “And even if she stays seven or eight years,” says her moth he'll |still have plenty of time for the stage.” In September, 1940—one year after the attack—she returns an out-patient of the hospital which began the treatmnet. And three months later, she is pronounced fully restored—a victor ove: the disease and ready to resume life as a strong, heullhly. girl.
