WOLNVHd AHL do has come to one is neat, articulate—and pretty, too. Her name is Jocelyn Brando, and she’s the sister of the much- publicized Marlon. Here for her first movie role—as Glenn. Ford’s murdered wife in “The Big Heat,” she has firm words in defense of her brother. © + “Marlon is a fine actor and a very interesting person,” she re- marked between movie scenes. “I would like’him as a good friend, even if he weren’t my brother. As a matter of fact, we ARE good friends. ‘ “That's why I get so mad at some of the things I read about him. His elothes, for example. He’s not as sloppy as he is made out to be. I will admit that he is a great believer in ‘informality. In his earlier days, he preferred to wear blue jeans and a T-shirt. But they were always clean blue jeans and the T-shirt wasn't, torn. “Since he has become a star, he dresses much better. He has bought séveral suits, and I under- stand he just bought three tailor- made ones last week.” She admitted that his love of informality sometimes caused a family crisis’ when both were studying dramatics at the Actors Studio in New York. Before leav- ing to attend a party or other function, she would gaze at his garb and shake her head. “I don’t mind seeing you there,” she would tell him, “but I won't walk in with you. We'll go separate- ly.’ She added that he was usually shamea into wearing something more acceptable. After a shaky start, Miss Brando is beginning to like the experience of making movies. She was the first in the family to go on the stage, Marlon following her exam- ple when his attempts at schooling and other work failed, Her first job was in a show called “The Crocus,” which lasted all of a week on Broadway. Her first lengthy run was in “Claudia,” but the engagement had its drawbacks. She was understudy to Dorothy McGuire, and the star was blessed with unfailing health. Jocelyn finally got a chance to go onstage, but not to replace Miss McGuire. Frances Starr, playing the mother role, fell ill. The actress playing the sister took over, and Jocelyn portrayed the sister. Evelyn was about a foot shorter than the actress she re- placed, and Miss McGuire giggled |hecause of it all through the per- formance. Miss Brando’s next big part was as the nurse, the only woman in “Mister Roberts.” She said she didn’t seem too out of place, since the stage manager and the goat in the show were aiso female, Jocelyn is married to writer Eliot Avilov, and they have a 7-/ month-old boy. She also has anoth- er son, 9, by a-previous marriage. Communist Check In Los Angeles Termed Success LOS ANGELES #—The House Un-American Activities Committee has finished an eight-day Los An- geles hearing which Acting Chair- man Donald Jackson (R-Calif) calls “one of the most successful ever undertaken.” Twenty - six witnesses, mostly writers, teachers and actors, were heard as the committee probed al- ™ | leged-Communist infiltration of the jentertainment industry, education > and the lives of ordinary citizens. | Star witness of the sessions was %) ars.

Pittsburgh pulled out of the West this spring, and with the Sox gone only four teams will remain—the New York Giants, Cleveland and Chicago Cubs in this vicinity and the St. Louis Browns at San Ber- nardino in California. The Browns haye not signed to return fo “San Berdoo,” but are expected to. ‘There will be some difficulty in rounding out full exhibition sched, ule for the four remaining clubs unless the Browns come to Aria- ona when they are ready to start playing’ next spring. They discov- ered to their sorrow this year that they couldn't draw against Pacific Coast League teams.

I think it's because 1 say ‘em quick and then walk away. What makes an umpire mad is when you try to show him up to the crowd.” Another veteran, and a slightly more legitimate one, who hopes to make his presence felt in the com- ing American League race is Har- ry (The Cat) Brecheen. The little southpaw, one of the pitching greats of the past decade for the St. Louis Cards, is now with their intercity rivals, the Browns. will be 39 the next time around. “What is it a pitcher feels losing first?” Harry replied plied to a question. “Not thing—hbe just years creeping i ‘Right now there a: f can i a 1 wi soled FS & A a3 ificets: grag a i Hl ition he once had. 8 i ¥ 8 ee { Petes tivill comeciewatle frelaz me ep good for the time brine Now Dom geatg beck to Lous that others needed | EF & i hi : ik a i i i it i Bee A f i Fy | i i & F 3 i ie cdi 3 Hy $83 i ap j 5. i i i i 8 ue i i f = ie : . | him, don’t you?” “Hi and show them a. ball im, hear it’s a good baseball town, The man who wears nobody’ tie says he had been guaranteed a unanimous vote to move his club to Baltimore before the famous meeting at Tampa, where he received the dusiness.
