Press Association —Copyright. Hollywood, February 24
Sir Guy Standing, the noted film actor, died of a heart attack while chatting to an employee in the offices of a motor agency. The employee asked how Sir Guy felt and he replied: “Excellent. I never felt better in my life.” A second later he fell to the floor. Friends traced Sir Guy’s death indirectly to the bite of a black spider two years ago during the filming of “Lives of a Bengal Lancer.” Apparently Sir Guy recovered but recently he complained of pains In the legs. He refused medical care and it is believed that the poison affected his heart.
