...ARQUETTE, WILL SMITH and SKEET ULRICH will become the hot male stars of next year or so. Either that or these are the ones with the best publicists. And in case tomorrow's men aren't as interesting to you as yesterday's boys, photographer Herb Ritts gives JACKIE COOPER and MICKEY ROONEY the old second-childhood makeover. "That photo should have been the cover," says Rooney, who at 75 is working and eager for more. "When you're working, you're a child." Well, anyone can see that...
