For a java programming class I am trying to create the illusion that a face drawn is moving across a frame. Everything is working just fine in an A.W.T. Applet or Frame. When I move things over to swing the repaint method seems to work in a different manner. Instead of a nice little hop across the frame the image leaves a print each time it is redrawn.Does anyone have any tips on how I can improve this feature.I have attached the code for this project. Thanks.

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import javax.swing.*;


public class PersonMain extends Frame implements Runnable{

    private int x =0;

    public PersonMain(){
        super("Moving Face");

        setBackground(Color.BLUE);
       
        setSize(400,400);

        this.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
              public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we){
                System.exit(0);
              }
            });

        Thread t = new Thread(this);
        t.start();

    }

    public void run() {

        int xDir = +1; //direction (horizontal)
        int incr = 5; //speed of movement
        int sleepFor = 600;
        while (true) {
            x += (incr * xDir);
            /*redraw image in new screen location*/
            repaint();
            setBackground(Color.BLUE);
            try {
                /*put thread to sleep for designated time*/
                Thread.sleep(sleepFor);
            } //ends try
            catch (InterruptedException e) {}
        }
    } //ends method
