'Deadline-USA' Portrays Life On Newspapers-Without Music
Hollywood—(U.P.)—Very little music ever is heard around a newspaper office. There is even a superstition that decrees no one shall whistle in the city room.
That is why about the only music anyone will hear in the sound track of "Deadline—U.S.A." is the music of a roaring press or a clacking typewriter.
The director, Richard Brooks, who is making this newspaper drama for 20th Century-Fox, says he wants his picture to be a realistic portrait of newspaper life. He permitted the use of a musical background but he decreed that it be subordinated to the normal noises of newspaper production.
Brooks knew how it ought to sound, because he has been a reporter for daily newspapers in New
a dinner at the Greer home in Topeka over the holidays.
Miss Greer is a graduate of Bradford Junior college and is a college senior at the University.
Mr. Stearns is a senior at Kansas State college and a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity.
A summer wedding is being planned.
JUNE MEYER, CHICAGO, relaxes amid a crop of broom corn, from which is made the housewife's best friend—the ordinary house broom (oh, my aching back!). June was awarded the title, "Miss Broom Corn of 1952," at the convention of the national broom manufacturers in Chicago. Now all we are waiting is for some sharply miss to win the title of "Miss Vacuum Cleaner Bag," or for a skinny lass to be called "Miss Mop Handle."
Vork, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Kansas City.
"Our prime ambition is to see that the picture winds up as the most 'honest' and realistic newspaper story ever put on film," he said. "It will be authentic in every detail. To add to the realism we are using these sounds, which are usually associated with a newspaper plant, instead of 'mood music.'"
To get the right noises, Brooks spent four weeks in New York last year with a special crew recording newspaper sounds.
“it's not good music,” said Bogart, who plays the role of the managing editor, “but it's loud. I manipulate the keyboard like a lot of my reporters on the paper pound their typewriters—with two fingers.”
There will be one piece of realistic music in the film. It comes from a special jukebox which the actors feed with real nickels during a beer-hall scene.
He won't guarantee it's music but another of the realistic noises in the film is Humphrey Bogart's piano playing.
