DOUG REDMON INTERVIEWS
MOVIE STAR IN NEW YORK
Editor's Note: Doug Redmon has been
in New York City pushing three songs
which he wrote. Before he left he made
a bet with one of his classmates that he
could date a movie star while he was
there. He didn't quite do this, but he did
next best. He interviewed a movie star,
Sandra Dee. This is the account of his
interview. Note the picture of Sandra
Dee with her autograph addressed to the
students of Guilford College.
I had great hopes of seeing San
dra Dee when I came to New
York. I had been there about two
weeks when I saw her name in a
weekly paper called "Show Busi
ness' listed under "Celebrities in
Town." It was then that I make my
decision to make an honest effort
to meet her.
I called her hotel and was told
that she would not arrive until
. -r4,. ;P|g,
Mm :: ::
Saturday at 12:00. After several
calls I finally reached her and
talked to Sandra's mother. She was
very co-operative when I told her
that I was sent to New York to in
terview Sandy (as she is called) for
our college paper. She referred me
to Mr. Camey at Universal-Inter
national offices on Park Avenue. I
did so and was told that there
would be absolutely no time for a
personal interview.

I hung up very disappointed, but
I wis not through trying.
On Tuesday, my day off from
looking for jobs and keeping ap
pointments, I proceeded to the
hotel again to tug at "Mrs. Dee's"
heart strings. I called up to the
room to tell her that Mr. Carney
had refused me an appointment
and asked her very politely if there
was anything she could do. She
declined, saying that she had ab
solutely nothing to do with Sandy's
business life and that she was "only
her mother." I then asked to in
terview her from a mother-daugh
ter viewpoint and she kindly ac
cepted saying that she could give
about 10 or 15 minutes of her time.
She asked me to call back in an
hour. I took my place in the lobby
and began to read.
Looking up I saw Sandra Dee in
all her "mink glory" passing by. I
froze instantly and just looked. I
wanted to jump up and get her
autograph, but I couldn't move.
Educators from seven counties
will be on hand for this event.
I was disgusted with myself for
not getting her autograph for I
just knew that that had been my
one and only chance.
Going back into the hotel I saw
that it was time to call again. I
did and I was asked to come up
immediately. All the way up the
elevator, I felt the butterflies re
producing like mad.
I walked into a very plush hotel
suite covered completely in gold
and white. Her mother introduced
herself and we began the inter
view as follows.
Sandra Dee was born in Bay
onne, N. J., on April 23, 1942. She
was a top model at twelve. Her
career progressed rapidly through
TV and other media until Ross
Hunter discovered her, signed her
with Universal, and cast her oppo
site John Saxton in "The Restless
Years." She did have a small part
in "Until They Sail." She was an
immediate success and her career
was officially launched.
Sandra is delighted with her sur
roundings. She works with the top
people in the movie world: they're
all her friends and she is loved by
all. As for the future, she is now
recording for Decca Records.
After learning more about San
dra's personal and professional life,
I asked, "Is there a possibility of
dating Sandra Dee?" Mrs. Douvan
looked at me very assuringly and
said, "There are always possibili
ties!" I laughed hopefully and said,
"Then she is available?" "Very
definitely," was my answer.
I readied myself to leave when
the door bell rang. I was very as
tonished to see Sandra Dee walk
in. Her mother introduced us and
I bravely stood up and shook hands
with her. We began to talk and I
found myself eyeing her from
head to toe. She is a very lovely
blonde of 5' 6" with brown eyes
and a lovely figure. She was then
hurried into another room and I
was left on a cloud.
This was the end of one of the
most exciting and satisfying hours
I have ever spent seeing that
famous people are actually human
and can be very usual.

Lights for Dances
To be Bought Soon
Plans are underway to purchase
two new spotlights for the use of
the social committee, it has been
announced by Lynn Hundley, co
chairman of the committee.
These lights will be strictly for
use at social committee sponsored
dances. Each one costs approxi
mately $16.00. After conferring
with Mr. Donald Deagon, dra
matics coach, on the size, price,
and type of the needed lights, the
purchase will be completed.
For all previous dances the com
mittee has rented spotlights from
the Reveler's Club. "We feel that
this has been running into a lot of
extra expense and needless trou
ble," Lynn Hundley said. "We
should be able to buy them with
the money we save by not renting
the spotlights."
The social committee has a num
ber of other projects underway. It
has already bought a stereophonic
hi-fi record player, opened the out
door recreation area for after-din
ner relaxation, and planned a hay
ride for this Saturday night.
