Jack Majovski Sees Hollywood Through Glasses of Movie Star ‘Opportunity for Girls to Get ^ork?’ He Says ‘No’ to Everyone The Hollywood pictured in the mind’s eye of the overage movie fan which is largely based on screen attractions (or disattractions) he lias seen, and the Hollywood as it actually exists are very different, in the - opinion of George Majovski, pre-medics senior, who spent the summer working in studios at the movie colony. Jack was one of the ten Oregon boys selected from the University last spring in the na tional movie tryouts. As a publicity stunt he hiked south to Hollywood, seeing the coun try at first-hand, and getting into good, physical trim. The Portland papers gave him a good send-off which was to open the way to moviedom. How lie got into the ■ movies m another story. Suffice it to say that it was far from a simple pro ee lure. Letters of introduction we:y so many scraps of paper. As to the opportunity for girls to get screen work,, the answer was an emphatic “No!” “Girls,” said Jack, “have far less chance to get into pictures than boys, and boys have siwli a microscopic chance tlial it is practically nil.” Jobs of all sorts are constantly opening up, but not in relation to the motion pic ture business. An example is cited bv Jack where an acquaintance of his, a Mexican youth of high caste, had been on the waiting list of the pic ture, “The Thief of Bagdad,” star ring Douglas Fairbanks, for almost two years. Looks aren’t the only requisite to a movie career, says this . embryo actor. There must be talent to go along with them. If you have talent, education, and good looks, you are not assured of a future in the movies. Jack pointed out. It is. next to impossible to get within the gates of a studio, Tim milkman, the fuel mail, or the ice man have passes. Actors and actresses who are pop ular with the movie-going public '■ are reticent about being seen by I tourists. They know that they rep resent the ideals of the people in 1 the types they portray and they do not rare to be observed in real life. Stories of actors' and actresses’ | drinking are exaggerated, Majovski j asserts. Actors must keep in trim as do athletes if they are to do ; t heir best work and keep their posi tb ns. Motion picture people are | artists, he says. When a picture on j the screen portrays tears or some ether emetion#it is real. Artists are | temperamental. He cites the case of Belle Bennett, who starred in ‘’Stella Dallas.” Two weeks before the com pletion of the picture her 16-ycar : old son died. She went ahead and ! iinished the picture. Her work of S putting over the mother role was ; extremely real—she was actually a 1 heartbroken mother, i Majovski in his picture work, j which he insists was confined to very i minor parts, came to know Douglas 1 Fairbanks, Rohald Coleman, Harry j Longdon, and many other stars of • trie silver screen. Jack told of a few of Iris on a parts in picture work. In the pic ture “The Golden Snare,” which i has not been released, he doubled for Lewis Stone. At one time he was called upon to dash into a burn ing building and return carrying Ruth Renick, leading lady in the i picture. In Douglas Fairbank’s new pic ture, "The Gaucho,” Majovski danced the tango. lie hail numerous parts -in mob scenes. He secured some jobs with Fox and Christie comedies. He met a number of in teresting and famous people who were not movie actors, including Rupert Hughes and Judge Ben Lind sey, who was on the campus a week ago Thursday. “I’d certainly like to live in Fort land and receive the pay 1 got in Hollywood,” he said, when asked as to living conditions in the movie, oloiiv. “ Brices for eats arc easily twice as high around the studios as they are here.

Cold, gray stillness of fog on the liver. Skeleton-like frames of bridges receding in the distance, changing to giant phantoms in the misty air. In the fifi'eground a houseboat at anchor seems lifeless and deserted. Shell an impression is given in “October Morning,” one of a col lection of photographic studies by Albert and Alda Jourdan, Portland photographers, on display in the little gallery at the Arts building. “October Morning” is one of a group of bridge studies, so-called because the pictures were taken from bridges spanning the Colum bia and Willamette rivers, or other high points. “A Nook in tin1 Cliff,” another of this group, lias a peculiarly soft finish similar to a study in pastels. It is purely artistic photography for its own sake. The light and dark are deftly brought out, and the ob server has a sensation of truly be ing upon the cliff, looking down upon the water. A portrait of Feodor Chaliapin, opera singer, lias more of the (de ment of spontaneity than the other portraits, though they are all good likenesses. It is alive, vital. It does not seem posed. “The Skip per” has a certain naturalness, and gliows a grizzled-faced man, pipe in mouth, wearing an old seaman cap. There are many other portraits of interest. Signor Alberto Bimboni, the composer, is shown laughing, cigarette-holder between liis teeth. A small bov in plaid jacket, study ing over a checker-board, is entitled “Notre Fils.” There are pleasing likenesses of Lewis Browne, autlipf of “Tlio Believing World”; Mon-, sieur Emil Jacques, the painter; Bruce Knowlton, of the Portland Opera company, A. E. Doyle and W. G. Purcell, architects, and many others. “October Sunlight on Alder Street” :fnd, “Alder Street *011 a Rainy Day” catch the rhythm of city life on a well known Portland street. Some studies of Fourth of July crowds at Council Crest park have a certain appeal. They remind one of a Middle West county fair. Two pictures of the Skfidmo-V', fountain in the old part of Portland No Matter How Much You Learn YOU KNOW ONLY SO MUCH AS YOU REMEMBER.
