New Movie Idol Tells How to Elude Leap Year: Females Best
HOLLYWOOD UP—One of Hollywood's most eligible males offers this advice on how to elude designing females in this Leap Year: RUN!
Don't try to argue or rationalize or dawdle in any way. Just RUN!
Handing out this advice is Rock Hudson, tall, dark-haired, solidly-built actor. The handsome Winnetka, Ill., lad is the latest to cause a big noise among the bobbysoxers. In his two years in Hollywood, he has squirred a good number of the glamor girls and he would like to continue his single ways.
"I'm 26," he remarked, "I don't think I'd like to get married until I'm 30."
Leap Year or not, there are girls who would like to thwart his long-range planning, he said.
Feels It
"I can always feel it coming on," he said. "I have several dates with a girl and then she starts wanting to get serious. She starts to work me into a corner. That's when I use my strategy. I run.
"I don't call her up for four or five days. Finally, she calls me up and she's indignant. She wants to know what the dickens has happened to me and why haven't I called her. Pretty soon she gets the idea."
Hudson came close to marriage once during his Hollywood career. He and Vera-Ellen decided they would wed and even set the date for the big event. But it was cancelled by mutual agreement.
"Now I don't believe I would marry an actress," he declared.
"It places too much strain on a She'll be going out on a tour next, and soon as she gets back, I'll be going out on one. We seldom have the time to see each other."
Hudson is currently the fair-haired boy at Universal-International. He gets his first star billing in "Bend of the River," but it was the premiere of that picture that put him in solid with his studio bosses. He spent a week touring Oregon for the film, and he got the cheers of the younger set wherever he went.
At the Portland premiere, he attracted more clamor than the more established actors. Fortunately, the studio boss, William Goetz, was present to observe the ovation.
"It was tremendous." Hudson recalled with enthusiasm. "It was raining, but the crowds didn't seem to mind. They pushed against my car as I approached the theater. I could hardly get the doors open. The sidewalk was jammed. Two rows of policemen, arm-in-arm, pushed open a passageway and I ran through it."
Do such demonstrations frighten him?
"I should say not. It's wonderful."
Musical Biography
Capsule review: "With a Song in My Heart" is a musical biography with a ready-made plot: The dramatic story of Jane Froman. The movie makers had to do little elaboration on the exciting life of the famed singer. Fortunately, they stuck largely to the facts, and the result is a moving and highly entertaining musical.
With the possible chance at the state championship prize of $100 dangling before his eyes Hudson Harrison of Horace Mann elementary school district, who won that playground yo-yo championship, captured the Anaheim city title to advance into the district tourney in Long Beach and a possible chance at the state award.
Harrison, who had to go all over in his yo-yo ability to edge out city runner-up winner Stanley Evans of the Jefferson playground will travel to Long Beach Saturday day to compete in the district championships.
The first eight finishers from that tourney will compete in the All-State yo-yo championships in Los Angeles. Winning prize there will be $1000 while the runner-up will receive $500. All state finalists will receive $90 Schwinn bicycles from the Duncan yo-yo Co. All levels of the yo-yo competition are under the sponsorship of the Duncan company as well as the city recreation departments.
Other Anaheim playground winners were Raymond Jones of the Benjamin Franklin playground who also finished third in the final city championship. Runner-up to Jones at Ben Franklin was Louis Leos.
Jimmy Brockman won the title at the Thomas Jefferson ground with Stanley Evans coming in after the runner-up; however, Evan placed second in the city championships.
Jeffery Bates won the Georgia
Hudson came close to marriage once during his Hollywood career. He and Vera-Ellen decided they would wed and even set the date for the big event. But it was cancelled by mutual agreement.
"Now I don't believe I would marry an actress," he declared. "It places too much strain on a marriage. For one thing, I want to be the breadwinner in the family. I wouldn't want my wife footing any of the bills."
"That was one of the reasons Vera and I broke it up. She was making 10 times the salary I was."
He further illustrated with one of his current dates, Marilyn Maxwell: "She's just finishing up a picture and I'm just starting one.

The movie makers had to do little elaboration on the exciting life of the famed singer. Fortunately, they stuck largely to the facts, and the result is a moving and highly entertaining musical. While it doesn't have quite the impact of "The Jolson Story," it is nevertheless a craftsmanlike job. Susan Hayward is merely wonderful as the singing star and she is aided by David Wayne, Rory Calhoun and Thelma Ritter. But the real star is the voice of Miss Froman herself, more vibrant and stirring than any other in the business.
Elizabeth Taylor Marries British Movie Actor
LONDON (UK) — Movie stars Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Wilding were married shortly before noon today in the midst of a lively mob scene.
The 19-year-old bride and her 39-year-old groom, arriving separately, slipped almost unnoticed into the Caxton registry hall through a side door but a crowd of hundreds descended upon them

Navy Wants Honest, Frank Answers
WASHINGTON (UP)—The Navy reminded its officers today that "the Navy belongs to the public," and urged them to give whenever possible "frank, honest answers to questions from newspapers and wire services."
A public relations newsletter to all commanders, executive and staff officers said "too often newspapers are met with evasiveness, doubletalk or outright refusal to cooperate."
The newsletter, issued by Navy headquarters, said it is difficult to be completely frank with the facts "when you know that the editorial interpretation may not agree with the Navy's opinion," but laid down the rule that telling the truth is the best policy "even when the truth hurts."

Eastern Plane Victim Dies
ELIZABETH, N. J. (UP)—The death toll in the Feb. 11 crash of a National airlines plane here stands today at 33.
Harold Brown, 26, of the Bronx, N. Y., a passenger on the doomed DC-6 that smashed into an apartment house, died last night at Elizabeth General hospital.
Besides Brown, 28 of the Miami-bound plane's 63 passengers and crew members perished in the tragedy—the third in Elizabeth within a two-month period. Four of the dead were residents of the apartment house.
Kangaroos, wombats, "teddy bear," koalas, and platypus are creatures common to both Australia and Tasmania, but found nowhere else on earth.
LONDON (UP) — Movie stars Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Wilding were married shortly before noon today in the midst of a lively mob scene.
The 19-year-old bride and her 39-year-old groom, arriving separately, slipped almost unnoticed into the Caxton registry hall through a side door but a crowd of hundreds descended upon them as they emerged after the 10-minute civil ceremony.
Elizabeth radiated happiness as she was jostled by hundreds of persons in the corridors of the hall and in Caxton street outside. Seemingly the cooler of the two, she recognized friends in the milling crowd and shouted greetings to them.
The Hollywood beauty wore a grey woolen frock with a noticeable flare, and a stiff, pleated organdie collar. There was a single strand of pearls around her neck. A white Juliette hat set far back on her dark hair.
The crowd was very friendly, but eager.
"Hya., Liz. Are you happy?" yelled a giddy feminine fan.
"Yes, yes, very happy," Liz managed to say.
"And you, Mike. How do you feel?" others shouted.
But Michael was too busy to pay much heed, although he did flash several swift smiles for photographers.
He was wearing a dark sack suit and the moment he stepped out of the registrar's office he set a soft dark brown hat, its brim snappily angled down, on his head.

HOUSTON, Tex. (AP)—A 6 feet,
1 inch, 220-pound Negro who
wrenched apart a steel truck cab
to free the trapped driver doesn't
think the exhibition of strength
was so unusual.
Jones appeared on the scene of
an accident near here Tuesday as
flames threatened to sweep the
wrecked truck. After prying apart
the telescoped cab with his bare
hands and back, Jones disappeared
before anyone could thank him
or get his name. He was identified yesterday.
