Cloan, Fresh Gnrbage People move along ihe street. In and out of the i. tores ami the pool hall, and emerge on their fire escapes on signals from an assistant director. Some of the rooms in the tenements are "practical"; that la, they're real rooms which will be used for part of the action. Other rooms are not really rooms at all. Their windows are reached by liidedn stairs and cat walks. The tank had to be deep enough so the tenement kids can really dive and swim In it. The water is clean and warm, but since It in supposed to be j part of the Fast River, it also must carry a realistic amount of garbage.

They have ruined miles of footage by od-libhhig shock ing phrases from their stage role. Each of them has, or feigns com plete contempt for Hollywood. Oorley is aniious to get back to New York and resume bis (raining as a plumb er's apprentice. Only one, the Hall kid, thinks he would like to be n stage actor. That's why the others call him Hippy."
