Cooey Gets Heart Attack
Dancing With Mac P her son
By VIRGINIA MACPIIERSON
Hollywood, Calif., Dec 15 IU.R) Western bandleader Spade
Cooley hired Macpherson to do a one-minute acting job with him
In Robert L. Lippert'i "Everybody's dancin'."
We did Just what he told us to. But we must have been pretty
awful. Twenty minutes later Cooley crumpled to the floor from
c heart attack. 1
Three policemen rushed him
to St. John's hospital in Santa
Monica, where he is recovering
from his horrendous experience.
Cooley is being real gentle
manly about the whole thing.
He insists it wasn't our fault.
He had been working too hard
lately, he says, and the ticker
had been acting up.
"I knew I was gonna have to
alow down, anyway," he said
from his hospital bed. "But I
was trying to finish that pic
ture. That was the last day.
"As soon as I wound up that
scene with you I was going to
the hospital for a check-up. I'd
already had one attack."
Maybe. But our brand of
emoting will never put Bette
Davis out of business. Turn that
loose on a man with a tricky
ticker and the results could have
been a lot worse.
We're waiting now to see how
the make-up man came out. He
had a bad time of it, too. Getting
the MacPherson mug ready for
the scene is no cinch.
First, there was the matter of
a pug nose. In desperation he
smeared a long streak of brown
goo down the center and said
maybe that'd tone down the
coop snoot a little. But he
wasn't guaranteeing anything.
He didn't like the MacPherson
eyebrows, either. Seems they
have a tendency to curl up on
the ends. And anybody knows
a dame can't look glamorous
with a pug nose and eyebrows
to match.
The hair was another prob
lem. He combed it up, then he
combed it down, and finally he
gave up and left it the way we
had it in the first place. (Our
only victory of the day, we
might add.)
For our screen debut we walk
ed on the set, shook hands with
Cooley, said a few words, and
walked off again. We had to
do it over three times. Seems
we don't talk loud enough. (And
this will come as a complete sur
prise to our old man!)
Re-takes are expensive things.
But Spade was a gentleman to
the bitter end. He said we did
fine. Then he collapsed.
His doctor said he will re
cover. As long as he takes it
easy from now on. It goes with
out saying that Includes no more
movies with female reporters.

Court Tilts
All Pinballs
Olympia, Dec. 15 W) The
Washington state supreme court
tilted all the pinball machines
again yesterday and the machine
owners declared they would ap'
peal to the U.S. supreme court
to keep the pinballs rolling.
The state court denied a pe.
tition for a rehearing of its Nov.
9 ruling that pinball machines
are illegal. Then the judges
turned down a request that the
ruling be stayed pending an ap
peal to the highest court.
Wilmot Garvin of Spokane,
attorney for the pinball owners,
said the U.S. court would be ask
ed for a stay of Judgment "in
three or four days." He said any
justice of the high court has
the power to halt action on the
ruling.
Reapportionment
Petitions Circulate
Portland, Dec. 15 W) Peti
tions for an initiative vote on
reapportioning the legislature on
a population basis were circu
lating here today.
The state AFL and CIO organ
izations, the Young Democrats
and some of the Young Repub
licans have endorsed the campaign.
Another reapportioning meas
ure is expected to be out soon.
The plan of Rep. Giles French,
Moro, which has the support of
the farm bureau federation,
would change the legislative
system to the federal plan. It
would give each county one sen
ator and put the house on a
population basis.

Accused Denies
'Urge to Kill'
Iowa City, la., Dec. 15 U.fil
A University of Iowa psychology
student accused of strangling
his pretty coed sweetheart Wed
nesday denied he had consulted
a psychiatrist about an "urge to
kill."
County Attorney Jack While
said he had a sworn statement
from a psychiatrist that Robert
Bednasek, 24, charged with the
slaying of Margaret (Gee-Gee)
Jackson, 20, confided that he had
"homicidal and suicidal im
pulses." But Bednasek denied that he
had visited a psychiatrist.
"I wish you would talk to
Professor Edward Shoben (As
sistant Professor of psychology
and clinical consultant at the
University of Iowa)," Bednasek
said.
"He probably knows more
about me than anyone else. I
trust his Judgment Implicitly."
Shoben confirmed that he
knows Bednasek "very well,"
but said he didn't feel free to
discuss his relationships with
students.
"I will be wiling to tell of
the relationship after I have
been subpoenaed," Shoben said.
The county attorney, who
would not identify the psychia
trist or elaborate on his state
ment, said authorities' investiga
tion has "establish a motive and
an intent for the crime."
The National Geographic Sod.
ety says American craftsmen
have recaptured the lost medi-
eval methods of staining glass.
