A DIP FOR VIRGINIA MAYO
Getting Measured for Bath
In Order to Disappoint Fans
By VIRGINIA MACPHERSON
Hollywood, Calif., Nov. 7 U-B Actress Virginia Mayo was
measured for a bath today.
She had to sit on the floor straight up, shoulders back for
hours while a gang of construction men swarmed over her with
ape measures and carpenter t's.
This was for the water level.
Too high no good for the cam
era. Two low no good for lots
of reasons.
This kind of precaution is en
dured by every Hollywood bath
ing beauty over the physical age
of 8. And those slide-rule cal
culations are as exact as any
thing they figure up at Oak
Ridge.
They had better be.
Plenty of movie customers sit
hopefully through all bath
scenes, counting on the law of
averages that says someday
something's gonna slip up or
down somewhere along the
line and they're gonna get an
eyeful.
It never has. And they never
do. A lot of people draw hand
some salaries to make sure of
-that. -
They've even got the sound
stage at Warners, where Miss
Mayo will do her scrubbing on
"The Hawk and Arrow," pad
locked against peeping toms.
No one will be allowed inside
when the gal takes her plunge
in the pool, nobody except 20
assorted grips, electricians, cam
eramen, prop men, directors and
actors.
They don't count. To a lady
star taking a bath out in the
open, a crew is just as neces
sary as soap. And just as im
personal.
There is another problem con
fronting the boys who're draw
ing Miss Mayo's bath. The pool
has to be smooth on the bottom
according to Art Director Ed
ward Carrara.
"No rough plaster work and
no pebbles," he said. "Particu
larly no pebbles. Miss Mayo
will be sitting there with not
much on and she might come
out all marked up ... if you
know what I mean.
There is another thing.
This movie is in technicolor
and the shade of the water is
just as vital as the depth.
If it's too clear, you'll see too
much of Virginia, according to
one way of looking at it.
Let 'em mix it too blue, and
Virignia might climb out with
her creamy skin a deep indigo
shade. And that would never
do. None of the glamour queens
' are wearing their skins blue this
season.

BROWS"
Capital Journal, Salem, Ore.,
Blue Lake in
National Drive
Consumer purchases of one of
the largest and best quality can
ned corn stocks in years are be
ing boomed by a merchandising
and marketing program of Can
Manufacturers Institute of New
York and the Associated Inde
pendent Corn Canners, Chicago,
of which the Blue Lake Packers
Inc. of Salem is a member.
The local canning company, in
cooperation with more than a
hundred other independent corn
packers, will encourage corn
sales at the wholesale level and
through retail store displays
across the country. The market
ing bureau of the Can Manu
facturers Institute, representing
can makers, will take the canned
corn story to the consumers
through magazines, newspapers
and radio stations. A total of
6,700 newspapers, 1.500 maga
zines and more than 300 radio
stations will thus be informed
of this program by photographs,
recipes and stories about the
supply, economy and nutritive
values of canned corn.
Canning officials realize that
contracting for and canning corn
is not their sole job these days.
To assure a year-after-ycar mar
ket from locally produced corn
and full-scale employment at the
local cannery, it has become nec
essary to follow through direct
to the consumer via active parti
cipation in the modern sales
methods advanced through na
tional merchandising programs.
