Did George C. Scott's Father Pick-up an Oscar in '62?


Chicago Tribune, Monday, April 16, 1962, pt. 3, p. 10, c. 2:

LOOKING AT HOLLYWOOD

by Hedda Hopper

The Oscar for the best documentary film of the year went to "Project Hope," made by the Excello corporation. The head of the packaging division of that company is George Scott, father of the George C. Scott who said if he won an award for "The Huslter," he wouldn't pick it up. Papa had no such scruples. . . .
