Top Stars, Not Studios
Control Movie Industry
By BOB THOMAS
AP Motion Picture Writer
HOLLYWOOD (AP) The men
who hold the balance of power ir
the movie industry are no longer
the big studio bosses but a dozen
top stars.
How did this revolution happen?
Let the stars themselves ex
plain. Some modestly deny they
are the new rulers of Hollywood.
But all admit the power of box
office favorites has grown im
measurably in the past decade.
Frank Sinatra: I saw this
trend coming five years ago. I
knew the time would come when
the major studios no longer ex-

lfis work in this lino has' been

the Society of American Graphic
Arts. His etching, "Cabin By The

inaugurate a series ot covers tor
the company's magazine. His etch
ing. "High Desert Valley," has
been added to the permanent print
collection of the Cleveland Art
Museum, Cleveland, Ohio.
His etchings, according to num
erous critics, show an intimate
knowledge of nature's forms and
moods. But he is not. they say, a
mere copyist of nature. His work
reflects a strong individual view
point and interpretation which has
interest above mat ot mere
scenic attraction.
Stagecoach
Still Late
LOS ANGELES (AP) The But
tcrfield overland mail pulled into
town from Missouri and points
west Tuesday.
It was late, just as it was loo
years ago. but the reasons weren't
the same. Indians and badmen
slowed down the mail back
1858. but this run. which started
at Tipton, Mo., 21 days ago. was
held up by speeches and curiosity
seekers, eager to see the replica
of the first Butterfield stage.
The stage brought 200.000 pieces
of mail to the post office. Accom
panying it were Highway Post Of
fice No. 1, a ' covered wagon, a
mobile blacksmith shop and mu
seum and several floats provided
by historical societies. The whole
works was transported on trucks
and trailers.
The, caravan leaes today for
its western terminfcs, San Fran
cisco.' It arrives rriday.

Teen-Agers
Aid Backs
SAM FRANCISCO (AP) When
a teen-ager slouches into a room
and collapses into a chair like a
big hunk of liver he is doing some
thing good for his back, a bone
specialist said today.
The slump, when it results in a
forward curvature of the lower
hackbone, causes a distribution of
weight burden and lessens the
pressure on the discs between the
vertebrae, said Dr. Loren L.
Stephens of Arcadia, Calif.
Bad for the back, Dr. Stephens
told the Calilornia Academy of
General Practice, is the ramrod
straight sitting position, In which
ihe lower part ot the spine is made
to how rearward. This Dr. Steph
ens called the West Point position.
He termed it a malignant posture,
meaning that it tended to lead
from bad to worse.
Crossing the loss at the knees
can be beneficial for the spine.
Dr. Stephens said, because it
tends to produce the restful for
ward curving ot the bottom end
of the backbone.
sled as such, but would offer their
acilities in partnership with the

Sinatra, dropped from his MGM
contract as a singer on the skids
six vears ago, is now back at the
studio as partner in "Some Came
Running" and two more films,
James Stewart: "After the
glamor and glitter is stripped
away, you've got to realize that
movies are pretty much like any
other business. We exist on supply
and demand too. The demand now
is for solid, reliable performers
who can get people out of their
homes and into the theaters.
"People don t have the movie
habit any more. They won't go to
ihe theater unless they're pretty
sure of getting their money s
worth. When they know that Duke
Wayne or Gary Cooper is In the
picture., they can judge from past
performance that it ought to be
Drettv Eood.
Cary Grant: "we ve gotten to De
ike a well-atlvertised brand of tea.
Housewives buy that brand of tea
rather than take a chance on a
brand they're not familiar with.
"The moviegoer is the same
way. He 11 see one ot our pictures
because he knows he's pretty sure
of getting a certain quality, while
he might not take a chance on a
new fellow across the street."
Why are there only a dozen
stars who fit this category?
William Holden: The studios
are to blame for that. Right after
the war, there were 750 to 800
actors under exclusive contract to
the studios. Today there are 175.
and virtually none of them are
bie names.
"As soon as the picture business
started getting tough, the studios
dropped the actors. The produc
ers argued why should they pay
an actor $2,500 or $5,000 a week
when they can let him go and hire
him back at $100,000 per picture.
Of the golden dozen stars, all
but Marlon Brando were under
studio contracts at one time. But
now they are free agents and get
as much as $750,000 in salary and
perhaps half the profits.
What happened to the pioneers
who built the movie industry and
once held complete power over
it?
Holden: "There is no second
ccneration in the picture business
The Mayers and the Cohns and
the Warners and the rest of them
created the industry and ruled it
with iron hands. But then they got
older and lost some of their drive.
"The pioneers are dying off,
and they left no one to take their
places.
So the top - drawer names as
cended to power. Television was
their unwitting aid. The flood of
free home entertainment knocked
out the B picture. Unable to sus
lain high overheads, the major
studios became hives of independ
put producers.
The banks insisted that the in
dees sicn ton stars before loans
would he given for pictures. Hence
the prices for such stars got high
er and higher.
The deals are gelling richer
and the stars are getting more
powerlul by the day.
Next: How the top twelve stars
operate.
