    SHE GETS AWAY WITH IT
'Cheesecake' Ruled Out
By Serious Marsha Hunt
Hollywood (U.R) Marsha Hunt was at 17 the youngest charac
ter actress in pictures, and now, eight years later, she's still
the prettiest.
She's played woman of 60,"
flippant comediennes, old maids
with specs, school teachers,
dumb-style Southern girls,' un
married mothers and all.
"And I loved every minute of
it," she said. "That's what I
wanted to do. I'd never, never
be an ingenue."
No such creatures exists as the
ingenues movie starlets usually
play, says Miss Hunt. They are
figments of the Hollywood im
agination. . "All those words, words, words
they say," she sighed. "Did you
ever hear anybody really talk
like that? Mush."
Miss Hunt currently is play
ing a straight-talking,, sensible
policewoman in Columbia's "Wo
man From Headquarters."
She got over this ingenue bus
iness her first few days in pic
tures. She went straight to the
publicity department and an
nounced she'd be glad to fight
a grizzly bear or float over the
city in a balloon. But no, abso
lutely no, leg art.
i naa reaa enough movie
magazines to know that girls
who pose for cheesecake are re
ferred to as 'cuties' or starlets ,'
she said. ' "Well, I thought
could act and I didn't want to
be a 'starlet.' I wanted to be an
actress." '
-
She did act once in a bathing
suit. It was in picture called
"College Holiday." She looked
pretty good, although leggy
"I had to show my legs while
I was acting again on television,"
she recalled. "I was doing a pro
duction of 'Twelfth Night.'
Shakespeare knew enough to
put girls in tights once in
awhile."
The character role she liked
least was in "Pride and Preju
dice" singing "Flow Gently,
Sweet Afton," off key.
"I happen to have perfect
pitch," she said. "It was very
hard."
Wants Cookie Jar Back
Thief River Falls, Minn., Aug.
25U.R Mrs. M. H. Collins said
today she would bake all the
cookies the thief who stole her
cookie jar could eat if only he
would return the jar.
Man Admits
Mauling Vet
Montesano, Wash., Aug. 25
WP)--"I guess on several occa
sions I dragged him by the hair
and slapped his face, but I was
just trying to cure him.
With those words, Sheriff
Mike Kilgore said, 52-year-old
Frank Chase confessed orally to
mauling his 29-year-old ampu
tee veteran stepson, Henry
Chum.
The confession was given yes
terday before a group of news
papermen.
Kilgore said Chase admitted
beating Chum because the lat
ter "had lost his self respect."
Chase is held in the Grays
Harbor county jail on assault
charges. A suit in Chum's behalf
was filed in Superior Judge J.
M. Phillips', court by Lester
Stritmatter, a Hoquiam attor
ney. The complaint charged that
Chase, by "intimidation, threats,
force and fraud," took $2768.05
in government disability pay
ments from Chum, and alleged
that the World War II veteran
was forced to sign a certificate
of title for the amputee'automo-
bile given him by the govern
ment and that Chase sold the
machine.
The slightly built ex-GI, who
lost his left leg above the knee
in a Japanese bombing on New
Guinea, told Kilgore yesterday
I he had been forced to crawl
Mayor Frowns on Gal's Shorts
But His Deputy's Different
San Francisco U. Last year Mayor Elmer E. Robinson
refused to allow "Miss Harbor Day," a 19-year-old blonde
model clad in short blue shorts and a T-shirt, into his office
until she changed into a more decorous outfit.
This year Mayor Robinson was out of town and acting
Mayor Daniel J. Gallagher, a bachelor, looked forward with
considerable anticipation to the annual visit of "Miss Harbor
Day."
.He was disappointed when she turned up in a very
proper black suit. It seemed Janet Jackson, also 19 and
blonde, had been warned about proper dress in a mayor's
office.
"What, no scanties?" asked Gallagher?-
After a brief retirement Miss Jackson came back in
very short white shorts and a blue T-shirt. The mayor
beamed.
Commie Plea for
Mistrial Denied

eral Judge Harold R. Medina
today denied a motion by de
fense counsel for a mistrial in
