THE POWER OF
DEDUCTION
A contributor to
"Spotlight and Keel"
Opus of Omaha's
Movie critic,
Ogdon Nashes:
"Hedy Lamarr can't act for
sour apples but she has readied
the pinnacle,
Which just proves again that
everything depends on being
photogenical." .
There are
Two quarreLs
To pick
With this.
In the first place
Hedy
doi:snt
Act for sour apples.
That gal
Performs
For plenty of
Sweet potatoes.
If you
Get what I mean.
Secondly,
"Photogeniear"
Is by no mens
"Kverythinjr to"
Heady Hedy.
Iledy's appeal
Is less
laical than
Biological.
And "photogenic" (al),
Biologically,
Means
"Producing
PhosnhenMicc.
And
"Phosphcreuec,"
Biologically,
Means
"I'niission of ligtit
Without
Sensible heart."
And
"Sensible"
Bioligically,
Means
"Appreciable
Through the senses.'
You sense
Plenty
Of warmth
In Hedy.
Critics can
Tear her apart,
Logically,
Yet
The heat
Stays on:
Her figure
Is unsymmeUJcal
Her legs are fat,
Her chest is flat.
Her mouth's too big,
Her hair's a mess.
But
Ohhhhhbhh Boy!
She's got
Something there.

Tretty puas,
And the
Publicity stills
Were dead-ringers
For Hedy.
But she
Wasn't the same.
The light
And heat
Were lacking.
There's a ,
Moral
To this
But
The censors
Snipped it.
