PAGE EIGHT. THI DAILY NEWS, HUNTINGDON AND MOUNT UNION, TUESDAY, AUGUST 10, 1954 HOLLYWOOD SCRAMBLES By ALINE MOSBY United Press Hollywood Writer Hollywood, California Mickey Rooney, now making a return to the big-time on television, decided today Holly vood jilted him for years because of his repeated trips to the altar. "There was a campaign for a. while there against me no more Rooney," Rooney grinned. "I' guess it was because of my unfortunate marriages." Now the veteran actor has settled down happily with his fourth mate, pretty Elaine Davis, and his career has forged upward again.

After two years of trying out various scripts, NBQ at last is shooting Mickey in a filmed comedy series, "Hey, Mulligan," that debuts on the home screens Aug. 28. Network executives seen the films swear they'll boost Rooney back to the top of the show business heap. Unhappy Home Hurt During the late 30's and early 40's, the Andy Hardy of that MGM movie series was three-times a box office champion and several times an academy award nominee. But in recent years an unhappy home life and the "down" cycle oE show business caught up with the bouncy star.

He appeared in several independent pictures, but "the release was bad, and they didn't push the movies." "Now those pictures are on television and a lot of people enjoy them who didn't go 19 see them in the theatres," said Mickey. After marrying Miss Davis, Rooney won a role in a top Paramount film, "The Bridges of Toko- Ri," and will appear on Milton Berle's TV program-before his own series begins. His Mickey Rooney Enterprises Company also is producing "Dateline Tokyo," a kimono-type "Dragnet" series for TV starring Dane Clark, and an adventure serial with Indian actor Sabu. Rooney also" plans to star in the life story of Jockey Johnny Longden. Happy Marriagre Heped "My happy marri.ge has a lot to do with this," said Rooney.

"Life is a rhythm, and when the pattern at home is right, everything else is If I'm alone, I get lonely." Rooney not only produces "Hey, Mulligan" and stars in it, but he writes the music, discusses gags with the director and shakes hands with visitors on the set. In the story he plays an NBC page boy who. "never does anything right." "There's no connection between this guy and Andy Hardy," insisted Hooney. "Anyway, theres an entire new generation who never saw me as Andy Hardy." Styled For Comfort Subscribe For The Daily News. H.

By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent Washington, D. C. The Army reports It has a private who prefers to live dangerously. He is a Britisher, now stationed at Fort Dix, N.J., who alleges the hair of our American women looks like the wool of the sheep.

It should be explained without delay that Sidney Morris is a professional hair-doer in private life and learned his trade in jolly old England from his pappy. At Fort Dix he is a cook and dishes up such things as spaghetti, which, come to think of it looks something like a hair-fix. The soldier, when he isn't cooking up something else, cooks up cute little digs to say about the hair of the female American. "American women," this soldier said, "want to be smart. English and French women want to be reserved." Sticks Neck Out The hair-stylist paused there for effect, which likely will be forthcoming without delay from American gals.

Then he stuck his masculine neck out where it is accessible to the axe. (Private Morris is all man, cular and about a yard wide, by the way.) Said he: "Continental women want to be individualists with their hair-fixes.

VIII TTONG KONG SMITH towered well above six feet six in his high-heeled boots.

He was about 45, tipped the scales at 270 and you could hear his voice about as far as a gun would carry. He came out of the Sage City Bank, his huge hat filled with coin. The score of men who had brought the first trail herd of the season up the Chisholm Trail let out a roar." About a dozen fired their guns. Hong Kong Smith -shouted the men into silence. "Come and get it, you dirty, mangy sons of Texas!" He led the way across the street to the Texas Saloon, set the hatful of money on the bar.

"Whiskey!" he roared. A bartender hurried up with two bottles of whiskey and a water tumbler. Smith'poured out a tumWerful of whiskey. "Let's do this businesslike. Who's first, beginning with "Adams, cried out cowboy.

"Adams," said Smith. "Forty- two dollars." He fished around in the hat, brought out four gold eagles and added two silver dollars. "Here's your money and this." He picked up the tumbler- ful of whiskey. The Texas man winced but drained off the huge amount of whiskey. He sputtered and choked and.

Today Hong Kong Smith pays the bill." a for Hong Kong Smith!" yelled a man and the ovation was taken up by every man in the Texas Saloon.

Lily Leeds came out of her office. Hong Kong Smith whooped when he saw her. "Lily, my girl, you get prettier every time I see you." "Oh, it's you again," said Lily in disgust "That's what I like about you sense of humor," roared Smith. He swooped Lily into his arms. "Give us a kiss, Lily girl." She slapped his face, but the big man crushed her to him and forced her face up.

He kissed her resoundingly and when he released her, his head with hard slaps. But Smith was impervious. A half hour later they smashed four tables in the Texas Saloon and broke the back-bar mirror. Marshal Kinnaird and his deputies, acting upon instructions from Mayor Fugger, discreetly stayed out of the way of the brawling men. CHORTLY before 12 Luke MBl- ler brought a couple of sheets of copy paper to Tancred.

Tancred's eyes skimmed over the story, which bore the head, "The Devil and T.exas Rule Sage City." Luke Miller pulled no punches. Jacob Fugger, he said, catered to the lawless Texas men, because they were making him rich. The Kansas Western Railroad paid.him $1 lor every Texas steer that was shipped from Sage City. Fugger saw that the Tcxasjcowboys received hard cash in Sage City, instead of at tbeir homei in TCXM. By Frank Gruber through hjs stores and saloons, Fugger saw that that money was taken away from them.

Fugger owned Sage City and he pulled the strings the way they suited him. Right now it suited him to let the Texas men run wild and the citizens of Sage City could expect only violence and bloodshed. The law would not curb the Texas men because Fugger owned the law. TJIGHT now, if yon were a Texas man and it suited you to insult a -Sage City woman on the streets, that was perfectly ail right. If you felt like breaking a few windows about town, no one would punish you for indulging your whim.

Or, maybe your fancy ran to riding your horse on the sidewalks or into stores. Go right ahead, no one would stop you. As long as you paid your tribute to Jacob Fugger. "Ill set it up," said Tancred, "After lunch will be all right Fugger will never forgive me for that." "He's not exactly your friend right now." "Now hell really put en the But there's an election in a motrth. My only chance is to try to rouse the local voters enough so they'll vote Fugger and bis clique out of office.

they don't, I'm through in Sage City." Tancred washed his hands Mid left the riiop. He walked to South Street and crossed to go to the Bon Ion Cafe. As walked along he heard angry yelling in Saloon, then two quick shots. A man catapulted-oat of McCoy's and made lor the horses at the hitchrail. He mounted one and galloped up the street, emptying his revolver at the blue iky.

American women want to look mass produced, which they succeed in doing. With their hair they look like sheep. They want whatever is worn in the magazines or on the streets. They don't care if the style flatters." Morris, on a recent pass to New York, dipped his talented hands into the lovely 'locks of an American model and took third place in the "all American hair-styling competition." Also consider the fact that he put to work what his daddy taught him and curled and permanented milady's tresses at a Fifth Avenue salon in New York. That was before he was drafted into the Army and turned to mundane things like fixing spaghetti and meat balls and string beans and cabbage heads plus chili, with and without beans.

The private was reminded that he had his neck out. Army Protection "With the protection of the Army," he said, "I think I am safe. Women who are admitted to Fort Dix are not allowed.to'carry guns or knives. Anyhow, who would want to bump -off an honest man?" The hair dos the girls want, he give a stylist the quivers. Morris, to his credit, he said, has done a little business on the.

side with some of the girls around the Fort Dix base. "I don't charge them," he said, "but you ought to see some of our civilian help. I have dolled them up, as you say. They have the Morris touch. The touch of an artist.

Sorry now, though, my leave is about up and I must i catch a train 'and get back to Fort Dix and back at my spaghetti." McALEVYS FOBT Mr. and Mrs. John Davis and daug-hters Phyllis, Doris, and Marlene and William. Groninger of Mexico recently visited Mr. and Mrs.
