Here's Where 5000 Phone Calls a Day Give 500,000 People
a Chance at Stardom
A LITTLE blonde girl named Lorraine Krueger splays her first
starring part in "New Faces of 1937" and a lot of people will
ask where her career began. Mark Sandrich, director of the pic-
ture, says it began one day when he passed a stage where she was
practising some intricate steps with a group of chorus girls, in
rehearsal f: r "Shall We Dance." He liked her personality and
skillful feet and gave her a bit in^
the picture. But Lorraine herself
insists her success really began
with a phone call from Central
Casting.
On the books of the Central
Casting Bureau in Hollywood are
listed approximately half a million
persons representing every nation
in the world, all living in Los An-
geles. The names of these new
faces are tabulated on Lindex ro-
tary flies that are placed on the
switchboard In front of seven
operators. 5000 calls are a daily
average and at five o'clock in the
afternoon, when requests for to-
morrow's extras come in, these
seven flies are the busiest battery
of indexes in the world.
No matter what sort of odd SOS
Is issued from the studios, these
extraordinary files are ready to
meet it. Perhaps a director must
be supplied with as many as 104
extras who can play speaking parts
—the difficult demand made in the
casting of RKO's "Toast of New
York"; or the call may be for an
even dozen of typical "beef-trust"
chorus girls, such as were hired to
dance in front of Jim Fisk, fabu-
lous speculator and financier,
played by Edward Arnold In the
jams film, a brilliant spectacle of
tjie 70's.
Another flip
of the files
makes available
names of 100
actors needed
in an orien.
tal bazaar
scene, each man
speaking a dif-
ferent lan-
guage. Itis
even possible to
meet a call for
seventy stunt
men who can
recreate the
wild scenes of
the "Black Fri-
day" panic of
1869 and who
will r ot revolt
if the end of
the day's work
finds them with
black eyes and
bloody noses.
Behind It
all, behind these
visible flies and Lorraine Krueger
the supply and
demand that deals In blondes, bru-
nettes, young ones and old ones,
is that intangible lure — the
chance for success 1
