"BEHIND THE SCENES IN HOLLYWOOD By Harrison Carroll
"HOLLYWOOD - They held a double funeral in Hollywood for Arnold Gray, one-time star of the silent films and his wife, who died within a few days of each other. One of the chief mourners was Joel McCrea, whose stand-in Gray had been. Joel furnished the trailer in which the couple had gone to the desert to aid Mrs. Gray's fight against a lingering disease and, although he wouldn't want it known, it was Joel who made all the arrangements for the funeral.
"The star is in the middle of a picture at Universal, but left the set to attend the last rites for his friend."

"The Flame of the Yukon" gave Dorothy Dalton her great chance when the picture was made by Thomas H. Ince nearly nine years ago. It also brought Kenneth Harlan into the limelight. Now Arnold Ray is wondering if it will do as much for him."

"Arnold Gray to Act Lead Role in Yukon Film - HOLLYWOOD, April 24.- Arnold Gray is still a bit stunned. He can't exactly "come out of it." He was playing a minor role in "The Old Soak" at a local studio a few days ago when summoned to the front office.
"Do you think," an executive said, "that you could play the leading role in 'Flame of the Yukon' with Seena Owen?"
"The young man flushed. Could he play it? Were they kidding him? What was the idea. Leading men ordinarily are not selected in such manner from the ranks of the lowly!
"Just the same, the executive meant it. Screen tests were made of Arnold and he gets the plum, the "Flame of the Yukon." It will be remembers, was the production which brought Kenneth Harlan and Dorothy Dalton into the cinematic hall of fame when filmed by Thomas H. Ince in 1917. And Arnold Gray has been promised that if he makes good he will be features in other productions.
"Arnold Gray's home is in Toledo, Ohio, and he has been trying to break into pictures for a year. Six feet, 3 inches tall, blue eyes, blonde hair, he is of the Wally Reid type, and it will be interesting to watch his career from now on."
