Dean took off. "I don't know if you're going to be an actor. I have 13 Chattaqua companies but if you can't act, you won't get in one. We'll see," is what the school head told him.

Dean was in one of the touring companies in less than a year, got on Broadway in 1925 with a bit part in a George M. Cohan vehicle and has been working steadily, profitably and with acclaim on stage and in film ever since. Futher he won't take a part he doesn't like. "I tend to be stubborn, though, and sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm wrong." Then he laughed about a part he'd turned down because he didn't want to put on a fals(v stomach and play a shuffling character in a Western but "Dar-ryl F. Zanuck dared me to do it and I began to study the character, a fellow named Yancy who had stolen a horse, and the humanity in him came through and I understood him and had a wonderful time portraying him." With "Mr.

Novak" it's going to be easier. There's already a lot of Principal Albert Vane in Dean Jagger. Furthermore, there's a teenager, his 13-year-old daughter Diane, around the house to give him the high school student's viewpoint. Both his wife of 18 years, the former Gloria Ling, and Diane share his passion for blending creativity with orderlinesa. "My wife is a wonderful, creative girl," is the tribute he pays her.

"She writes and edits and thank goodness, is economical." Though they live in fashionable Brentwood, Gloria last year dispensed with servants except for cleaning help. "Can do it myself," she told him, "furthermore it's important that Diane learn how to cook and keep house, too." And, adds her proud father, you should see how that young lady cleans up a kitchen. "It's not a pretentious house," he said comfortably, "but it's the way we enjoy it. All three of us paint and we have a middle room upstairs, with the wrong kind ofa wallpaper, where we hang our own pictures. We like them." In addition to being a man of high standards easy to see his school principal is also going to be a likeable human being.

What does Dean Jagger think about education today? Acting? Life in Hollywood? Jagger has definite ideas about teaching and he's entitled, because before becoming an actor he was a teacher "At 17, right near home in Indiana." He got the job because he filled both requirements for handling an unruly class: first, h'd earned his teaching certificate; and second he had an air of authority was bigger than they were," he smiles." But then he can also appreciate a student's restlessness, too, because "I ran away from college, you see, in my sophomore year." 'In those days," he said, "after finishing high school you could take a 10-weeks normal school course after which, if you passed your state teacher's exam, you could teach. I knew more than my students because I taught the elementary grades and I mean grades, all eight of them. "I got the unruliness under control fast," he noted. "Then as now I'm a believer is strict discipline. I suppose one of the most lasting satisfactions was when a boy who started out unruly started taking an interest in school that year and went on to become a noted scholar." Jagger, on the other hand, was to learn that the academic life was not for him.

After a year of teaching he enrolled at Wabash College "and doubled credits to JUNE lfi 9:00 (3) Pete's Gang (12) Church Day by Day (22) In the Public Interest (28) Hour of St Francis (C) 9:15 (6) The Christophers (22) Mass for Shut-ins 9:30 (2) The Way to Go (6) Off to Adventure (10) Tottle (12) This Is the Life (26) Oral Roberts 9:43 (6) Stories Retold 10:00 (2-10-12-22) Lamp Unto My Feet (2) Bertie the Bunyip (C) (6) Pick Temple's Ranch (16) Today's Farm Outdoorsman (28) Frontiers of Faith 10:30 2-10-12-22) Look Up and Live First in a two-part series exploring the elementary religious education field.

Jagger is still grateful for a discerning professor's probing "over tea and cakes" which helped him discover what he wanted.
