    Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
Ucfted Press CorresDondent
Hollywood (U.R) Humphrey
Bogart occasionally blasts the
new fad for actors' names such
. , as Lance Rock
i and Tab so
today I looked
up the man
who's respon
sible for the
movement.
Agent Henry
Willson is the
person who
has given so-
Aline Mosby ciety such
names as Lana, Rhonda and
Race. He started to fame Rock
Hudson, Tab Hunter. Lance Ful
ler, Guy Madison, Rhonda Flem
ing, Race Gentry and a host of
other players after changing
their names.
"Some were embarrassed,"
admitted the affable Willson in
his Sunset "Strip" office today.
"Race Gentry has been kidded
by a lot of those nonworking
actors who hang around
.Schwab's drugstore. He wants
to change his name to John.
Actors Need Attention
"But I believe a new actor,
unless he already is established
on the stage, needs an unusual
name to get him attention. A
name must have flair and flash.
Like Rex Reason Most of the
kids who come to me have
names that are just dull."
Henry started his name
changing with Lana Turner. He
moved on to Rory Calhoun (from
Francis McCarthy) and has been
name-changing with abandon
ever since.
"Mention any of my clients
or former clients in South Afri
ca and they know who you're

talking about," he said proudly.
"Who else but Rhonda Fleming
is named Rhonda?
"The right name is important.
Bogart would have made it in
Hollywood 10 years sooner if
he'd changed that 'Humphrey',"
he added.
Names Prompt Gags
Willson's names prompt many
gags around Hollywood. One lo
cal pasttime is making up new
actors' names: Chuck 'Wagon, Al
Fresco (for an Italian actor),
Hard Times, Rock Bottom and
Mack Truck. .
Willson smiles feebly at these
gags. Once he tired of the jokes
and dubbed one of his new cli
ents John Smith.
The agent now is launching
three new players Rad Fulton
(his real name, James Westmore
land, was "too long"), Cain Ma
son and Rena Clark.
"I discovered Rena behind a
bakery counter," said Willson.
"She's a combination of Lana
and Rita so I named her Rena.
She has a contract at Warner
Bros, and she's just like Lana
was at 17."
Warranls Served in
Policemen's Deaths -
Portland (U.R) SSgt. Don
ald G.. Vogel, 25, Portland, has
been served with two warrants
charging him with negligent
homicide in connection with the
deaths Saturday of two Portland
police officers in an automoblie
accident.
Patrolmen Vernon S. Stroeder
and Roy Mizner were killed
when their patrol car was struck
by a vehicle police said was
owned and operated by Vogel.
The warrants were served in
Good Samaritan hospital where
Vogel is being treated for seri
ous injuries. Al-c Sylva Vy
socky, a passenger in the Vogel
car, was less seriously injured
and was booked as a material
witness.

Fresh Tomatoes, Tomato Prod
ucts Perform Meal Time Magic
Every Day
There's no doubt about it
the tomato is an all-time favorite
for meal time magic. For not
only are sliced tomatoes, fresh
from field or hothouse, a year
round favorite; but canned toma
toes, tomato puree and tomato
paste are used in cooking in just
about every household. Cream
of tomato soup is number one
among soups; tomato juice is
found on just about every menu
round the town; and condiments
based on the flavorful, brightly
colored fruit, namely ketchup,
chili sauce, Worcestershire, bar
becue and other meat sauces,
outsell all others. ,
Agricultural experts through
cross - breeding and controlled
cultivation have been largely re
sponsible for the present day
firm, smooth, lovely crimson ap
pearance of the tomato. Toma
toes have an interesting histori
cal background. When Cortez
and his Spanish conquistadores
invaded Mexico in 1519, they
found Aztec farmers cultivating
irrigated fields in which a
strange plant was growing. The
fruit borne by the vine-like plant
was small, wrinkled and lopsid
ed; but its fine flavor made it an
Aztec favorite. Such was the
original tomato.
It is interesting to note that
soon after the conquistadors in
troduced ' tomatoes in Europe
they fell into disrepute. Bota
nists discovered the plant had
some unsavory ancestors. It be
longed to the night-shade family,
some of whose relations were
known as effective poisoning
agents. However, once the toma
to was proven harmless, all
Europe bowed to the flavor of
this lush fruit.
Today modern methods of
farming, marketing and process
ing make fresh tomatoes and to
mato products available to the
American homemaker the year
round.
Tempting Tomato Rarebii If
Delightful Quickrto-Fix Dish
Tomato Rarebit is a quick-to
fix, truly delightful dish particu
larly suited to the chafing dish,
if you are lucky enough to have
one. It can, however, be made
in a double boiler and taste just
as delicious. Because the ingre
dients are kitchen staples you'll
be ready to prepare this at the
drop of a guest's hat.
1 11-ounce can condensed cream
of tomato soup, undiluted
' pound (1 cup) grated process
ed sharp cheese

Combine soup and cheese in

dish over boiling water. Heat,
stirring occasionally, until the
cheese is melted and mixture is
smooth. Add mustard; blend
well. Serve over toast points or
crackers. Garnish with parsley,
if you like. Makes six servings.
Could anything be simpler? A

this as does asparagus or broc
coli. ,

Thearpy Used To
Teach Stutterers
Los Angeles (U.R) : A new
twist in psychological . therapy
for stutterers which includes
teaching patients how to stutter
in a new way is being employed
with success at the University
of California here.
"This idea of fighting fire with
fire is not a new one," said Dr.;
Joseph Sheehan. "But we believe
we've uncovered a hitherto' un
recognized' key point that im
proves the technique."
In adult group studies, he re
lated, subjects were asked to ape
their own stuttering style while
reading, a passage. Many stut
tered worse than ever while do
ing this.
But when men and . women
used a manner of stuttering com
pletely new to them, such as the
bouncy speech . impediment of
young stutterers or sliding ' into .
words ,they improved at a fast
clip in later readings. .. j
"The average stutterer is
caught in a vicious circle," said
Dr. Sheehan. "The more he.
stutters, the more he seeks to
avoid the words he stutters over.
"When a stutterer is forced to.
stutter in his old, unpleasant
way, "f ear is likely, to increase.
But when he is given a new way
of stuttering that is more pleas
ant, his fear of the stuttering act
is reduced and he can speak
more freely."
Gravity Gives Full
Effect of Nose Drops
Buffalo, N. Y. (U.R) Let
gravity work for 'you to get the
full medicinal effect of nose
drops.
Most people just tilt their
head straight back, squirt in' the
drops, and . sniff . This carries
the medicament directly . into
the throat, bypassing the swol
len or inflamed sections of the
moucous membrane you want to
reach. : ,
Medical researchers' here say
you can increase the effective
ness of nose drops by tilting
your head . back : and sideways.
Instead of sniffing, let. gravity
do the work.. Follow the same
procedure for both nostrils.
You'll be surprised how much
medicine you save.
