COAL CO. WINS OVER GLAMOR!
Betty Jane Turns Down
Television for Old Job
Kansas City, Mo., (U.R) Hollywood television is playing
second fiddle to a coal company for the affection of a sul
try, dark haired Kansas City secretary.
Pretty Betty Jane Smith refused the television contract
after appearing on one Hollywood produced program with
Russ Morgan, Martha Tilton, Harry Savoy and Red Nichols
and his orchestra.
"I'm loyal to a Kansas City coal company," Betty Jane
told Producer Don Otis after the show and after refusing
his contract offer.
"Things are too chancey In Hollywood. Plenty of stars
are looking for work there and at home I'm sure of my
paycheck."
Betty Jane gave a similar excuse to Harry Savoy who
offered her dancing engagements at the Florentine Gardens
and other Hollywood night clubs.
Today Betty Jane was back in her coal company office and
completely indifferent to the Hollywood experience which
was just "an incident in a vacation trip."
"That television appearance was just the result of a dare,
anyhow," she said.
