It was Jack Hoit who started, his career as a double for a star, but now that he has attained the rank of a star himself, you would think that he would stop doubling. But the daring Jack still continues to do his own work without substitutes. While making a dangerous ride along the rim of a canyon for a scene in his last picture, his horse fell in the loose dirt and rolled into the chasm will him. Jack escaped with minor injuries. Immediately he was warned that when dangerous stuff was to be photographed, he was to let somebody else do it. That is just about as useless as telling Mussolini that he hasn’t anything more to say about Italy.
