NOW! FIRST SHOW STARTS 2:20 P. M. TCHED BY HER GLANCE/ SHE'S ENTRANCED WITH ROMANCE!/ EXTRA! MARCH OF TIME SPECIAL! “SET ’EM UP” Thrills on a Bowling Alley Late News Flashes Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal.,, Oct. 31.—Whitney Bourne is one of those people you hear about, and practicaily everything you hear sounds like an act. She dresses startlingly fashion, yet manages to look chickie (as we don't say in Paris) and grab attention wherever she goes. She favors evening gowns and slacks, with nothing in ward- robe for in-between occasions. Faced with such an apparel crisis, she'll merely “adapt” one or another of her favorite costumes. You hear she moved apartment in Hollywood to a big-time house in Brentwood with big lawns front and back and more shrubbery than you canvount. Economy measure Then she spent a small fortune redecorating, repainting, rebuild- ing, reshrubbing. She drives like the wind at least once and of mad impulses, wild enthusiasms, reckless gener sical fancie; She is, in other words, That's what you hear (you hear) with a happy disregard for from a she said. has wrapped her car around a tree herself escaping scratchless he's a creature ity a Personality. s0 1 went to see. and whim- You get sick and tired of acts after a few year: You suffer slight nausea every time you hear the name of Garbo, which may be unfair of you. You wish K. Hepburn would decide which role she’s playing and stick to it. You wish all the big fry and the small fry would be themselves. in Hollywood. Well, Whitney Bourne may be an act but I think not. At any rate, she's a very interesting one. The day I called she was in the throes. Breathless, Tele- phones and doorbells ringing. Her maid Marie housecleaning. Whitney housecleaning tco. All that hardware on her arm, jangling like the boss's buzzer on a morning after, showed it. She'd been cleaning out dresser drawers and couldn’t find any place to put those braclets. So she wore them. She wore, too, flowered lounging pajamas, straw slippers, and WHY NOT ENJOY A REALLY DELICIOUS SUNDAY DINNER AT THE NEWER-FINER PERCY’S She is blue- her hair in its usual long, waveless, pale golden bob. eyed, fair-complexioned, and very tall. Amid all the confusion—she has a rather flattering way of including callers in it—I gathered a few items about Mis B., to wit: She isn't really a “mad” person as she’s pictured dislikes “mad” peopie. She dre as she does becguse she likes to dress as she does—and its fun. She likes fun. She's having a lot of fun even if not much of a movie career. She’s practically hopeless on the movie score now Her option comes up in January and she knows there isn't a contraet-extending role in sight. She knows because she has read all the scripts. she in fa. She's afraid it's going to be embarrassing, going back to New York without having done more in pictures than she has. (“Flight From Glory,” “Love in a Basement,” “Double Danger,” “Blind Alibi,” a small part in “The Mad Miss Manton,” etc.) Her grandfather invented a famous sewing machine, but sold out before the fortune came. Her parents sent her to school in Paris. The itch to act made her run away at 15. She applied to the Comedie Francaise, but she did her acting—and starving— at a little Parisian experimental theatre. Gilbert Miller saw her there, invited her to New York, and she clicked. Made the movie, “Crime Without Passion,” also, and eventually Hollywood. She walked out on her own debut party. She isn't exactly—er—practical. But she is herself—and not an act. e o s e o e eaense el GRACE MOORE FEATURED ON -~ CAPITOL BILL “I'll Take R;nr{:;m‘(‘," Musi-| cal-Comedy Now Playing Here Grace Moore, who will not be de- {nied as queen of the motion picture realm of song, contrives with that| amazing Columbia Studios to achieve the most ente ning musi- cal picture to date in “T'll Take Ro-| anc opened yesterday at the Capitol Theatre Elsa Terry, a petulant opera is the main character in “I'll Ta Romance,” plz with adroitness| and charm by Grace Moore.
