as to whether he has a commission He has no commission is training as a private i and hopes to become a bombardier "It would be presumptuous he states "to accept a commission when others deserve- it more I want to earn whatever I get" This attitude has been typical of CUrk all through his career He came to the top the hard way through knocks and many disappointments He set his goal and has steadily plunged ahead to reach it and now right at the Zenith of his career he has turned down the assignments of five pictures which represent no small fortune and has joined the army to train as a private It is this down-to-earth reality of Clark's and sincerity of purpose that has brought him where he is No glamour for him no undue honor or publicity What he gets he works for and he doesn't want it any other way One of his greatest problems before he left Hollywood for the army was dodging publicity Since his wife Carole Lombard died he has granted very few interviews Starting his dramatic career on the legitimate stage at which time he appeared in "The Copperheadf a play in which Lionel Barrymore was accorded fifteen curtain calls also "Madame and others he came to Hollywood and played many a small part before he gained recognition One of his first pictures was "A Free Soul" in which he acted with Lionel Barrymore and Norma Shearer Later he climbed in rapid succession in

luscious Betty would be quite enough to please any boy but she dances and sings for them "Just like I do in pictures "When I think of how hot St will be I 'almost wish I could do like most girls "Just walk out ari say 'Hello "But" Betty sighed "I sing a half dozen songs Dance for another hour and then afterwards if they have a dance I dance my hoe right off But I don't mind really" Betty quickly
