This Week's Column Praises George Reed

-,, Dear Readers:

Slavery was still in existence when George Reed . . . the splendid character actor we see today on the screen . . . was born on Presi­dent's Madison's estate. Lincoln was just a lawyer then . . . and not the great President.

George Reed can remember the guns of the Civil War, roaring al­most on his doorstep. And he re­members too, when at the age of ten, he realized he was a free soul . . . and went off to Philadelphia,

I

company playing in California, star­ring Frances Powell in "The First Born." Later he played the mem­orable role of "Uncle Tom" in Uncle Tom's Cabin." After the

stock company disbanded, Reed worked as an extra in the motion picture business and has been in motion pictures ever since, having the reputation of being the oldest actor in Hollywood.

He is just a mere eighty-nine years young.

Reed has appeared in over a hun dred pictures, his latest being with Barrymore in "Cynthia's Secret." He has no idea of retiring from the screen after having been an ac­tor for fifty-six years, I dedicate this column to George Reed, a great! actor. CREOLE RICE
