She is still the films. Jean Willlams, formerly of the New York Follies, tried unsuccess- fully to crash the screen gates several moaths ago. A few weeks ago she came back again. This time Wér name was Sonia Karlov, the daughter, so she said, of a Russian father and a Norweglan mother, with Denmark as a birth- place. Producer Cecil B. DeMille put her thrc screen tests and told her he would sign her up. Then somebody from Broadway saw and recognized her, 8o, with her bubble of hope apparently explod- ed, back she went to DeMille and confessed. The producer decided that good screea tests could not be denled and, as Sonia Karlov, the New York Foliles girl today is a motion pleture actress with a futare. ————— Wutlm Condlhm As Recorded by the U.
