Peter Graves May Have Set Mark For Gray Hair Vogue Sarasota Journal - Monday, March 1, 1971 by Joyce Haber

When Peter Graves was in Louisville last year for the Kentucky Derby, two of his women-fans came up to him and asked what he used on his hair to make it silver. “Nothing,” Peter answered. “It’s natural.” “Come on,” said one of the ladies. “You don’t have to play that game with us.” As the suave, decisive, unruffled and prematurely-gray chief of the impossible missions force, the only game Graves actually plays is on CBS’ suspenseful, Emmy-award winning series, “Mission: Impossible” which is in its fifth season. This year, he took the Golden Globe Award from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for best actor in a dramatic series for his portrayal of Jim Phelps. But the lady was wrong. Peter Graves is, for the most part, precisely what he seems. His hair, for example, began going gray when Peter was in his mid-20s. “I woke up one morning,” he says, “and there was this patch of gray right there.”

As we sat in Hollywood’s famous restaurant, Scandia, which boasts, among other things, a superb array of dishes ranging from Caesar salad to smorgasbord, Graves touched his left temple and laughed. “I thought ‘Oops’ - and it just continued. When I started going gray over-all. I appeared on a big TV star’s variety show. He started kidding me about it right on the air - as did everybody. Next day he came and apologized. ‘I’ve been gray myself for 15 years,’ he admitted, ‘But I touch it up.’” If gray is in now in Hollywood, as it seems to be, Peter started the trend. I noticed that actor George Kennedy, at the Golden Globes Awards, was completely silver-polled. He used to be very blond. But gray wasn’t always in, not even for Graves. Only three years ago, when Universal cast him opposite Doris Day in “The Ballad of Josie,” director Andrew McLaglen took him aside. “Listen,” he said, “no big star has ever been gray,” and; against the star’s protests McLaglen took Peter to makeup, where they “put on something from a bottle called Frivolous Fawn.” Andy McLaglen took one look and said, “OK, you win. We go back to gray.” The late Martin Melcher, Doris Day’s husband and manager, took a look at Graves’ first day rushes, gray and all, and asked him, “How come you aren’t a big star?” Quipped Graves: “Because I’m not married to Martin Melcher.”

But Melcher was wrong (Miss Day hadn’t started her TV series at that point). In terms of audience, Graves was even then a big star. “More people have seen me on TV in two nights,” he once put it, “than the total number of people who have paid to see ‘Gone With the Wind’ for 30-odd years.” Graves recalls a conversation with Joel McCrea in which the movie actor referred to Graves’ brother, Jim Arness, the seemingly eternal star of “Gunsmoke”. He commented on what a great job Jim had done and talked about how many years he’d lasted. He said when he was in studios seven years was the average endurance of a star, not the big ones - the Gables, the Bogarts - but take Dana Andrews.

"I’d guess,” says Peter, “if you look back, he was a star for only seven years.“ “In a sense, the stars today are on TV, because that is the medium. Movie stars, as we knew them, no longer exist, but I think they can again. For the past 10 years, everything has been anti-hero, but I sense a change. The heroes of the ‘60s were the John Kennedys or the John Glenns. People now want a hero they can identify with or admire. Once the motion pictures straighten themselves out, the first girl to make three good pictures in a row will be a star.” Graves, who once made a movie with Gary Cooper (“The Court Martial of Billy Mitchell,” 1955), was impressed with the late great star’s reply when someone asked him to what he owed his success: “Good parts in good pictures,” said the man who was spare with words, on-screen and off. “No truer words were ever spoken,” says Peter. “You can do bad parts in good pictures or good parts in bad pictures and maybe get a little personal satisfaction. But the key to it all is good parts in good pictures.”

It occurred to me then that for Graves, the “good part” might as well be the one that reflects his own self. He sat, the debonair man of 6 foot 3 inches, conservatively dressed in a Madison Avenue-gray worsted suit, a Rep tie that evoked the Brooks Bros. (logo [illegible] and all), a pale blue shirt that duplicated the costume-requirements of the early days of color TV. “Do you know what parts are right for you?” I asked. “Well, I think so. I doubt very much that I’d remove all my clothing and simulate any sex act on screen,” said Peter soberly. “I think that kind of appearance on screen is strictly faddistic and confined to its time. It fascinates me that the Readers Digest has had one article an issue for the past 40 years on sex education. I don’t know if that means that everyone is uncertain about sex.” “I think the general public’s attitude, particularly in the United States, has changed greatly vis-a-vis sex. I think whatever the Puritan ethic was that dictated restrictions on sex is being broken down. I think that’s a good thing, particularly concerning the teaching of the young. I think the pornographic movies do appeal to the prurient in us.” “People do want to read about sex in the Readers Digest. But they also want to see it on the screen, but pornography on the screen can be faddish, because the screen belongs first of all to the writer. When writers write good stories, people will go to look at them.” “Watching the sex act may turn you on for a while, but it’s got to get tiring. Pornographic films cater to the basic instinct, but not to all that instinct implies - which is love. I think that’s the reason for the high success of ‘Love Story.’ It’s about two people who go to bed together, yes - but mostly they’re in love.” Graves learned about love, and the Puritan ethic, as the son of a traveling salesman for a surgical supply company. He was born Peter Aurness on March 18, 1926, in Minneapolis. “I think we were born 6 feet tall and then started to grow from there,” he says.

His brother, Jim, is three years older and three inches taller than Peter. “My dad’s not particularly tall, only 5 feet, 11 inches," but his mother was almost 6 feet and straight as a ramrod - "a German woman who used to scare the hell out of me.” During high school, Peter took up the clarinet and the saxophone. At 15, he became the youngest member of the musicians’ union, playing with local dance bands for spending money. He once turned down a request to play with the Lawrence Welk Orchestra, then on tour in nearby South Dakota. “I was at school, so there was no chance.” He’d joined the staff of radio station WMIN as an announcer at the age of 16. Upon graduation he enlisted in the Air Corps. After his discharge two years later, he wanted to go to the Julliard School of Music, but finally entered the University of Minnesota instead. Peter majored in drama, which led him west to Hollywood. His brother, Jim, already was here, but he’d had no degree of success. “He was a disaster case,” says Peter. “I came out with a friend from school, (director) Jack Smight. I remember we told the porter on the train we were going to be actors, and he said ‘Don’t. They’re all going the other way - to New York.’ “Jim met us at the station and said, ‘Go back.’ We wouldn’t, so he checked me into the Hollywood YMCA, which is a far cry from Hotel Bel-Air, I’ll tell you. Jim gave me a copy of the Hollywood Reporter and said, ‘Go.’” “We went, making the usual rounds of agents, but the going was rough.”

His college sweetheart, Joan Endress, followed him from Minnesota, and after he landed a job in a feature, “Rogue River”, with Rory Calhoun, Joan and Peter were married. Joan worked for some time as a doctor’s receptionist to keep them afloat in those difficult days when TV was just starting and giving the movie industry problems. Peter had taken a name from his mother’s side, Graves, because his brother was using their simplified family name, Arness. Peter’s first big break came with Billy Wilder’s movie, “Stalag 17”; “Paramount had seen me in a couple of Westerns, and said ‘No, Graves looks like an all-American. We need someone who looks like a German spy.’ My agent, Paul Kohner, persisted. He knew Billy Wilder. We went to Wilder’s house on afternoon and he kept walking around and looking at me like and going like this-“ Peter spread his hands on either side of his face, imitating the director’s gesture that simulates what you see through a camera lens - the frame. Wilder gave him a screen test and the part. But after the movie, at option time, “Paramount said, ‘Forget it. We’re only going to make two pictures a year. Not only that, but you’re a German spy. We’re looking for an all-American boy.’”

A new producer, Howard Koch (“Odd Couple”) used Peter in several films. With “Beneath the 12 Mile Reef” at Fox, that studio took an option for a contract. “I thought that was it. We were shooting in Florida and they kept saying, ‘Darryl Zanuck likes you.’ Pretty soon came word that Zanuck did like me, but he was dropping me because Fox was only going to make one picture in the next year.” The picture was “The Egyptian,” an extravagant project intended for Marlon Brando, who dropped out. Zanuck wanted to test his then-girlfriend Bella Daryl, for a role. He asked Graves to test with her. “It was massive,” he recalls. “Full wardrobes. Huge sets. We rehearsed for two weeks in Michael Curtiz’s office. Leon Samroy (a very top cinematographer) shot it. Well, anyway, Bella got the part but I didn’t.” (Edmund Purdom starred in the film.) Peter’s one try at Broadway was unsuccessful: He played in Paul Gregory’s “The Captains and the Kings,” which got “so-so notices,” and folded after 10 performances. Graves really found his legs, so to speak, in TV. Paramount’s “Mission” is his fourth series. The others were “Fury,” “Whiplash” and “Court Martial.”

Joan and Peter live with their three daughters in a house in Santa Monica, Calif., which Peter says is haunted. It was built by a German couple called Von Lichtenberg. “There was some sort of tragedy. I’ve never seen the ghost, but I’ve heard it. We have a cukoo clock that hasn’t worked for 20 years. Occasionally it strikes.” Although he works for the American Cancer Society, he hasn’t given up smoking: “I enjoy it, and I haven’t gotten to the point where it’s affected me. I resent the label on cigarets. If they’re going to warn you why don’t they put the same sign at the entrance to every freeway, or on every banana that’s sold? You can slip on the peel, you know.” The only “romantic lead” Graves ever wanted to play is the starring role in a remake of “Dodsworth”: “That story could be updated to now and would make a great picture. But I think Sam Goldwyn still owns it.”

On the other hand, with his conservatism, it’s unlikely the man who is as he seems would back a film. “You cannot simplify human intelligence, emotion, and growth. To watch the frills and foibles of a human psyche is fascinating. All of which adds up to the fact that I might not put a dime of my own in a movie right now.” With “Mission” and Graves both near-institutions, it’s not very likely he’ll ever have to.

It was only worth 10 points on the Derby trail, but Chase the Chaos got the job done in the El Camino Real Derby and also earned a free spot in the Preakness should they choose to go.\

He sat well back early and had too much late kick for big favorite Gilmore to catch him in the stretch. Chase the Chaos won by a comfortable 1 1/2 lengths and has put together a 3-2-1 record from 6 starts.

Chase the Chaos is by Astern(AUS), a top class Australian stallion who shuttled to the US for the Northern Hemisphere season. Chaos is the first foal from his dam, Live the Moment. You have to go back a bit in Live the Moment’s pedigree to find some class, but she is from the same family as Mister Marti Gras - a gelding who loved to win races in Illinois and earned over $1million doing just that.

[squids-comics]

Hey everybody! I hope you liked the comic yesterday! Here's another short story to keep you busy while I start on the next one. This one is one that I plan to turn into it's own series someday. It was written for the first part of the second round of the smackdown, with the genres being children's book and steampunk, and the challenge of it being written from a toy's perspective. Here's Before the West was Wild!

The first thing I remember were the firm hands of my creators. They molded me, shaped me. Their hands were warm. They shaped my body, shaping the cold steel, giving me form in a slow process, full of care. For hours they toiled away, making sure I would be perfect. Then, there was a spark. Steam flowed through my pipes, and my eyes opened for the first time. The gears in my head started turning as I looked side to side at the world around me. The faces of my creators lit up as they saw me. There were two of them, a man and woman. The man wore thick rimmed glasses made from old cogs and a derby hat pulled down over long dark hair. The woman wore welding goggles pulled up onto her forehead, resting beneath very curly hair. They both had kind eyes and warm smiles. They looked at each other, excitement spreading across their face.

"We did it Doris!" The man said with a smile on his face. "Do you think Vern will like it?"

"Of course he'll like it!" The woman said back, smiling just as brightly. "You know how much Vern loves the stories of the Coyotes!"

They grabbed me off the table, lifting me into the air and carrying me through the house. It was a modest house, with all the essentials for a family of three. The floor was made of plain wooden boards, nailed down with a few threadbare rugs strewn across them. The walls were all painted bright colours, vibrant yellows and mellow blues. The place was lit by lamplight, giving everything a warm orange glow to it. Metal pipes ran along the walls to each lamp, providing steam to keep them lit. Other pipes climbed out of other spots in the walls and floor, linking up with various appliances and tools. Each shaky wooden table was piled high with all sorts of gadgets and gizmos, blueprints and tools. 

They carried me into a living room with a roaring fire set in a stone fireplace. Steam pipes ran into the fire, keeping it burning warm and bright. A young boy sat on a worn down rug, reading a book. Doris hid me behind her back, as my other creator went over to the small child. 

"What'cha reading there Vern?"

The boy looks up at his father with a smile on his face. "The story you gave me! The one about the coyote stealing fire to keep the people warm!" His book has what looks to be a hand drawn picture of a coyote, running through a forest with a flaming branch. 

Doris smiled. "I knew you would be." 

She pulled me out from behind her back. The child audibly gasped. His jaw dropped low as he stared at me in amazement. He looked like a mix of my creators, with Doris' hair and the man's eyes. He watched the cogs turn in my body as my tail began to wag. Doris took a step closer, as did he. 

"Is that a coyote Steam Critter? That's screaming!!"

Doris set me down on the floor as I ran a lap of the kid. He laughed and watched as I circled him. The firelight gleamed off my metal exterior as I ran, steam streaming from my mouth. My pistons pumped with each step. The child practically squealed with excitement. He joined me, running right along beside me, running through barren rooms filled with cluttered tables. We ran through the squeaky front door and out into the wide stone street of the city. Tall houses with ornate decorations and pointy rooves circled us and the little shack of a house we came from. Bright and beautiful street lamps lined each side of the street, each one lit with a soft gas flame. Gargantuan mechanical beasts pull carriages full of people. Beautiful stallions guide elegant buggies, while mighty bulls heave dirty stage coaches down the pristine tiled roads. We ran down the sidewalks, so bright they sparkled in the sun. We ran up and down the neighborhood for hours, looping through side streets and back alleys, all across town. 

This was how we were for years. We were close as brothers, thick as thieves. We did everything together. I was always at his side. Over the years, he grew taller, with his hair growing thicker and darker. He began studying technology, just as his parents did. At first he did it to repair me when I broke. Later on, he began doing other things. He modified me, helping me run faster and more efficiently. He helped his parents with their projects, and even started a few of his own. He loved working with steam parts, and I still loved running circles around him. 

But everything changed when the steam started running out. It was a crisis that affected the whole west. Steam provided people with warmth, safety from the elements, and even their livelihoods in some cases. There was a panic as people started hoarding as much steam as they could get their hands on. Some people even went rogue, forming gangs to rob and pilfer the remaining steam from any source they could find. The once sparkling streets were grimy and dusty. People stayed in their homes, their windows barred. The shining brass streetlights were never lit anymore. The west was wild, and Vern was no exception. 

He had grown into quite the capable young man. Years of carrying scrap metal for his parents put some muscle on his slender frame, while all his mechanical tinkering gave him an eye for the finer details of the world. The west needed someone to help it, to quell its newfound wildness. Verne decided he would be the man for the job. He left home at the age of twenty two, taking only a small bag of belongings, some of his inventions, and me. The west was wild, and we were going to fix it.

Doris Adelaide Derby (November 11, 1939 – March 28, 2022) was an activist, documentary photographer, and director of Georgia State University's Office of African American Student Services and Programs and adjunct associate professor of anthropology. She was active in the Mississippi civil rights movement, and her work discusses the themes of race and African American identity. She was a working member of the SNCC, as well as a co-founder of the Free Southern Theater. Her photography has been exhibited internationally. Two of her photographs were published in Hands on the Freedom Plow: Personal Accounts by Women in SNCC, to which she contributed an essay about her experiences in the Mississippi civil rights movement. She began to study dance while in elementary school and gravitated toward African-centered dance traditions. She received a scholarship to study at the Katherine Dunham African dance classes at the Harlem YMCA. Her association with the civil rights movement began when she joined the NAACP Youth Chapter in her hometown of New York City. She was a member of the Christian Human Relations Group where they discussed topics such as segregation, sit-ins, and the Freedom Riders. She was on the front lines of the civil rights movement. She worked primarily with SNCC in New York, Albany, Georgia, and throughout the state of Mississippi. She was approaching her last year in college when she visited countries such as Nigeria, France, and Italy. During her time she began appreciating the differences in cultures and learning about the struggles the countries were facing. She visited the Navajo Indian Reservation where she saw the economic inequalities the population was experiencing. In 1963, before the March on Washington, she was a teacher, she was recruited to work in an adult literacy program initiated by the SNCC at Tougaloo College. Her many "trials and tribulations" in the SNCC and FST in Mississippi are reflected in her book Poetagraphy: Artistic Reflections of a Mississippi Lifeline in Words and Images: 1963–1972 (2019). #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence #zetaphibeta https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck0dMQYLXMT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
