    Ruth who was to star alongside screen-cowboys,
    such as Duke, Ken Maynard and Tom Mix, was often known as 'The Girl'


    She recalled

    Quote

    You had to play the scene right because there were no second takes and, horrors, of course no retakes.
    The main stars were coached but not the girls. It may have been arduous work,especially on dusty locations, with few if any conveniences --


    Always a game actor, 'The Girl '-- would remain a favourite of both Duke and Ken Maynard, who felt the loss when she left films, to marry one of thy's best cinematographers, Lee Garmes, a union that would last a lifetime.

    Min-Biography
    From All Movie Guide:New York Times
    Reportedly a great-niece of novelist Vicente Blasco Ibanez of The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse fame,
    brunette Ruth Hall had been an extra prior to playing Zeppo Marx's girlfriend in Monkey Business (1931).
    The comedy earned her a berth as one of the 1932 Wampas Baby Stars and a host of leading lady chores
    opposite silver screen cowboys such as John Wayne (with whom she also did the serial The Three Musketeers in 1933),
    Ken Maynard, and Tom Mix. Hall recalled being termed "the girl" on these cheaply made program Westerns.
    "The Girl," she told Western historian Jon Tuska,
    "had to play her scene right because there were no second takes and, horrors, of course no retakes.
    The main stars were coached but not the girls." It may have been arduous work, especially on dusty locations
    with few if any conveniences --
    especially for The Girl -- but the always game Hall would remain a favorite of both Wayne and Ken Maynard,
    who felt the loss when she left films
    to marry one of the industry's best cinematographers, Lee Garmes, a union that would last a lifetime. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
