LoUis B. Mayer, executive head
of fh'6 Studio arid fir. A. P Gian
nini of the Bank of America were
frequCnt visitors in the Durante
diessihg room, and Upon entering
it would rub Jimmy’s rtoisp for luck.
Unable to remeihtfcr almost any
one’s name or title, the JSchnoz
zola greeted all callers with a big
hello. He had been given to under
stand that Mayer was the studio
cashier. L. H. had said at their;
first meeting that he paid out all
the checks. j
Whenever Jimmy saw May Cr-he
would call oUt, “i’ll be in to see
you on payday. Always glad to sCe
the cashier."
The acclaim that Durante re
ceived for Wallingford placed him
in great demand on the M-G-M lot;
but no stories of any consequence
were available. Producers of pic
tures that needed,uplift called upon
him to do mere Comedy bits instead

dull photoplays, but such stop-gap
casting caused a slump'm? hft pop

Ih four pictures that first year
he applied the pulmotof to
weak scenes. Sometimes NS would
merely walk on, make characteristic
movements on hft Head, roll his
little eyes, and say, “Hot-Cha, hot
cha!” and then exit.
ThiS expression, Which Jinfliiy hare!
originated in £h* night clubs, de
lighted the picture-makers, sat Du
rante grew tired of saying Httle
else while performing for the
screen. He eventually rCfuaSd to spy
“hof-cha” evCr again.
In 1931, l 9&, and on into. 1933
a succession of mediocre pictures,
some of them eXpensfffiy mounted,
alarmed Lou Clayton, Duran te’s
mentor. Where would it all end?
Lou asked.
Jim had followed the WaHfngford
picture with a' washout, The Gatofti
Love Song, in which Lawrence Tib
bett and Lupe Velez appeeed. The
Schnozsola played the pvt of a
clown. Then came another dilly,
released in January of 1833. The
Passionate Phnhtr. it starred
Buster Keaton- and Polly Moran,
and Durante again played a clown.
ACCOMPANIES EINSTEIN
During the early Hollywood days,
Jimmy and Jeanne Durante took t
holiday at Palin Springs.
One evening the owner ot the ho
tel said to Durante,- “Jkmny, Pro
fessor Albert Einstein J* down here
with his wife. He plays the Violin,
and he wants -to know would jmd
(tome on down and aocoinpany him
on- the piano?" \ ji,;
“Sure thing,”' the Schnozzola
said. “But who's the Professor? A
concert player ?”
“Are you bidding? Just come On
dowxa". f .
Mr. Durante was introduced •to
{he scientist in the lobby. Dr.
Einstein did not speak much Eng
lish, and Mrs. Einstein did -the
traniOMing (or him.
As she talked to Jimmy her hus

I believe the time has come to

least one in every 15 Americans and
last year it took 750,000 lives. These
facts tell only half of the story.
They make no mention of the great
amount of human suffering.
These statistics do not tell us
about the great number of people
whose hearts have been damaged
and are today leading normal, use
ful lives due to' the successful a
mount of research instituted in the
past few years.
* Let us not look to lightly upon
the suffering of others. This ma
