Luck O' the Irish' Is So Much Alfalfa, Says Actor Pat O'Brien
Hollywood, Sept. 26—(UP)—So far as Pat O'Brien is concerned, the "Luck o' the Irish" is so much alfalfa.
“Every time an Irishman gets anywhere,” said Pat, “someone dips up that moth-eaten phrase to explain it. Whether it is in business, in politics, in the theater or in the professions, they just take it for granted, grin and mumble something about the luck of the Irish.
“If a man plays out his string, whether he’s an Armenian, a Portuguese or a Greek, he's bound to have a little luck. I've had my lucky breaks just like anyone else, but 90 per cent of success is the ability of a man to refuse to give up in the face of bad luck.”
O'Brien's discourse on Irish good fortune was delivered on the set of "Passage West," in which he is being starred with Constance Bennett at Columbia.
"Every man needs that one important opportunity," he continued, "but it will come to him if he has gumption enough to play out his string. When it does come, however, he must be able to fill the requirements and all the luck in the world won't help him if he isn't up to the assignment.
"I lived in ball rooms for years, and nobody can tell me that there is anything lucky about that. I've played one night stands and been stranded in a dozen towns hundreds of miles from Broadway. What's lucky about that?
"Sure, I've had breaks like everyoe else has had. There are two in particular. The first was when I lost the part of the managing editor in the New York company of 'Front Page' and went on the road with the second company instead. I thought at the time that was a bad break, but I met a girl in the company by the name of Eloise Taylor. She's Mrs. Pat O'Brien now, and that's the biggest stroke of luck I've ever had.
