Faith Domergue Scans New Film Career After Playing Jane Russell's Successor London (U.R) When How ard Hughes was looking for successor for Jane Russell he found Faith Domergue. "But," said Faith, "I couldn't possibly follow Jane. Not In the same way. The only physical superlative you can apply to me is that I have the longest lashes in Hollywood. "It's not quite the same thing, Is it?" Would B Close Rac In an off-the-shoulder dress, the brunette beauty showed why she would lose but only in a photo-finish to Miss Russell. But she doesn't care. After nine years under the Hughes banner she is looking forward to a new career as herself and not the sultry siren Hughes tried to make her. "They spent a fortune on that screen personality," she said. "And it has served me well in at least giving me a name and a character." Discovered by Hughes when she was IS years old. Faith had nine years of schooling includ ing "helping me to eliminate a lisp by talking with a toothpick between my teeth." Lots of Thanks "So I have really a lot to thank them for," she said. "But now my contract is over and I am going to try to show what I can do as an actress. I'll be sul try if the part calls for it but that's not the only emotion, I can project." Faith is here with husband Hugo Frcgoncse while he directs the film, "Decameron Nights," based on Boccacio's earthy tales. Their two children are joining them for several months of shooting in Spain and Britain. "Vendetta," her first film for Hughes, took two years to shoot, had four different directors and cost nearly $3,000,000. Quite An Experience "It was quite an experience," Faith said. "Think what it means, filming a long shot when you're 19 and coining back to match the close up when you're 21. "There was a small boy in some of my scenes who grew so fast while the picture was being made that, at the end, they had to dig a hole for him to stand in."
