Company, Than It Was in Old Days of Movie By VICTOR GUNSON Central Press Correspondent HOLLYWOOD—Back di pictures after a two-year illness, ack Conway took another good look at Hollywood today and opined it ain’t what it used to be. Jack, who has probably directed more top flight stz than any other man in the movies, can look a long way back—all the way to 1909, to be exact. “No, Hollywood is nowhere near as colorful as it was in the early days,” Jack says. “The town has pretty well calmed down. Times have changed and so has Hollywood. “When I say that to people they Jaugh at me, but it's a fact. The people who haven't been here near- ly as long as I have say that I talk that way because I'm getting old. But, that’s not the case, it's fact.” Conway started out as an actor on the stage with the old Belasco company in New York city in 1907. Two years later he came to Hollywood at a time when what is now part of the center of the screen capital was an orange grove. He starred in the first pnctuxc produced here, “Her Indian Hexo,” made by the Nestor company. It was a two-reeler, made in two days outdoors. His heroines were Dorothy Daverport, who later ting married Wallace Reid, and Vic- toria Ford, who became the wife of Tom Mix. Conway got the top salary of 75 a week, which was big money at the very beginning, although in a very few years screen sal- aries had reached a peak where William Farnum was paid $10,000 a week, highest ary in the his- tory of the indusixy. . Hand-to-Mouth Then Conway, who returns to his work directing “High Barbaree” says: “In those early days no one had much money. As a matter or fact, sometimes it used to be very much of a hand-to-mouth ex- istence. “Of course,” Conway laughs, “no matter what they had every- one tried to make as big a show as possible, “I remember one point in my career. Things hadn’t been going too good and I ran $2,000 into debt. Then I got four pictures to direct in a row. A HAPPY FAMILY—Mrs. OLD-TIMER—Jack Conway remem: bers Hollywood back in_1909. Conway and Jack examine antique plow, an- niversary gift to them of their two sons, Patrick, left, and Michael. town would go down to the train to meet them, so they'd be sure of a royal welcome. “They didn’t have to be impor- tant—they just had to have a connection with the business.” Conway recalls that one of the first stars he directed was J. War- ren Kerrigan. “I don’t guess any of the ycunger prople even remem- | ber him,” he said. Married Bushman’s Daughter Conway recalls, too, the reign of Francis X. Bushman who, with Beverly Bayne, formed one of the screen’s great all-time co-starring couples. CTonway married Bush- man’s daughter, Virginia, in 1926 and they now have two sons and a daughter. One of the high points during Conway's career was directing his studio’s first sound picture in 1928, It was “Alias Jimmy Valentine,” starring William Haines. Among the others of the movie greats Conway has dirccted are Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Joan #When I got paid I first paid|gifrerent in the early days than|Crawford, Norma Shearer, William off my debts and then I went out|it js now, when in many cases|Powell and Robert Montgomery. and bought a $9,000 automokbile.
