could let down the bars and open
the gates to the sightseers who
sometimes have come great dis
tances. The city officials, prominent
business men, the picture execu
tives and stars could entertain
their foreign visitors in their
beautiful homes and gardens. A
huge formal ball, following pur
own Academy Awards event,
could be a fitting climax.
The goodwill and bond this
American festival could create
in bringing the people of this
earth together is incalculable.
Remember, it was the "motion
picture," more than any other
single medium, that brought
"our way of life" to the people
of other lands. Even though the

Another Day Dream
I have still another day dream.
It is that one day all the citizens
(non-professional) will find it in
their hearts to raise enough
money so that the city could
build a monument to the "mov

museum, for it would seem more

Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
Editor' note: Few tragedies have
(tunned Hollywood as did the tragic
death in a head-on collision Friday
Blent of new star James Dean. In a
series of two articles, the United
Press probes the enigma of the actor.
if
Hollywood (U.R) What .was
Jimmy Dean really like? One of
his closest friends described him
today as a
lonely, unhap
py boy who
never got what
he really
wanted out of
life love.
James Dean,
star of "East
of Eden," has
been an enig
ma in Holly-
insurance agent
Aline Mortr
wood. But an
who was the star's constant com
panion, Lou Bracker, told what
he thinks is the first "true"
itoty about Jimmy.
I sat with Lou at the home of
photographer Sanford Roth, an
other close friend of the actor's
who was driving behind Jimmy
when he met death in an auto
collision on a lonely highway
Friday night. Lou talked for
hours about his friends.
Lacked Lot '
"Jimmy died," he said, "with
out ever getting what he really
waited, love and marriage."
The only -girl Dean really
loved according to Lou, was
beautiful Pier Angeli. Jimmy
was broken-hearted when Pier
suddenly announced her engage
ment to Vic Damone.
. Even now, in Dean's modest
house in the San Fernando Val
ley, a photograph of Pier sits on
his desk.; '; . 1
; "I just wish somebody would
print the truth about Jimmy
nobody ever did," Bracker
said. a
"He was the loneliest man in
the world. He wanted a wife
and children, and he . used to
talk about how important it is
to be married to a woman who
is understanding. He could be a
lonely man in a room full of
people.
"He was so misunderstood.
People thought he was a non
conformist. But it wasn't that.
He couldn't open a conversation,
he didn't know how. He stayed
away from night clubs. . He
thought they were false and he
was shy; he didn't want to be in
the public eyeJ' "
Jimmy often ' "went into a
shell, but it was not in rebellion,
it was self-defense," Bracker
went on. :
"He'd been hurt a lot," he
said. Jimmy's unhappiness took
him'. to a psychoanalyst.) The
young actor's mother had died
when he was eight, anrn aunt
and uncle virtually reared him.
Friendships Described
After his . broken romance
with Pier, Jimmy had brief
friendships with such starlets as
Ursula Anders and Jeanette Mil
ler. To them all he talked in
tensely of his problems, his dit
ficulties in finding peace of mind
and getting along with people. .
The young actor was just be
ginning to feel more at ease with
himself, Lou believes, when
death caught up with him. Re
cently Jimmy even went to a
party in a tuxedo. His usual at
tire had been a loose-hanging
shirt and ill-fitting pants. But
he was discovering, "as Lou says,
that "He could wear blue den
ims, but they could still be neat."
But before Jimmy found the
happiness he sought, he got in
terested in a lighter, faster
sports car than the one he
owned.
Tomorrow: Why Jimmy was
killed.

tary of State Herbert Hoover
Jr. said today the United States
