[edit] Hometown memory
Spangler Arlington Brugh (Robert Taylor) graduated from Beatrice Nebraska High School in 1929. I just finished looking over the year book The Homesteader, of which Brugh was on the Homesteader Staff. He also was in the Dramatic Club, Glee Club, National Honor Society, Orchestra, Student Council, and Senior Social Chairman. My mother, who is now deceased, often told me about knowing Brugh in high school. She said all the girls thought he was quite handsome, but did not remember that he had any regular girlfriends. The year book shows his "Handsome profile" on many pages. He was the lead in all the plays given that year. The senior class had little sayings on all the classmates. Brugh's said,"Few things are impossible to diligence and preserverance." I guess that was better than the student who's quote was,"So slick he would slide on sandpaper." or "She often talks without thinking, but never thinks without talking." My mother remembers that Brugh was the pride and joy and only son of his parents and lived in a modest home in the residential section of Beatrice. I recently watched an old movie on TCM made in 1936 which starred Robert Taylor. He looked just as he did in that 1929 year book. --Helen Hohbein-- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.40.67.13 (talk • contribs) 20:07, 31 May 2005

"Some say that Taylor outgrew Stanwyck, especially during the six months of filming "A Yank at Oxford", the first MGM film to be filmed on location overseas. Still others say Taylor found Stanwyck too possessive and would succumb to the amorous advances of women eager for an affair with the leading man." I say this stays out until somebody provides references. Clarityfiend 05:24, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
- Yep, here it is: Jane Ellen Wayne (who also wrote books on many other celebrities, including Clark Gable, Lana Turner and Judy Garland) and her book on Robert Taylor. I read it cover to cover, and that is her story of what happened about how Taylor outgrew Stanwyck. Can you put the quote back, please, and next time ask before removing? Thanks! 10:50 pm., 25 September 2006 (LD)
