JEAN CHATBURN HOLLYWOOD, March 13. — The pretty blonde actress wife of Frank Orsatti, well - known Hollywood agent, will be missing from the Santa Anita race track for the rest of the season. Mrs. Orsatti, who is known on the screen as Jean Chatburn, is in # Reno to establish the necessary six weeks' residence to divorce her husband of two years. Last year Mrs. Orsatti had a string .of race horses that won lagain and again at Santa Anita. | This year the same horses have been running, but under differ- ent ownership and other colors. While she has played only small perts on the screen, Jean Chat- | burn, as she is known in the films, has become well known and is con- sidered one of the prettiest girls in - Hollywood. The divorce comes as a surprise, | since their marriage was considered | cne of the happiest in a town| where there seem to be too many upsets. HINTSTO HOUSEWIVES Here is something to serve after | a skating party or any outdoor ex- | ercise. Brown, split frankfurters in a small amount of fat heated in frying pan. Spread with chili sauce or catsup and tuck into split toasted rolls which have been well but- | tered. These are tops when served with hot ‘cocoa or coffee. Have | plenty on hand. As soon as you take a sponge cake from the oven, invert the pan on a cake rack until the cake is cool. {This lets air circulate under the cake, helping to prevent gathering moisture in the pan. When cake is cool, loosen the sides with a spatula ‘and slip the cake out. | Creamed oysters taste mighty good on a rainy night. Instead of serving them over toast or biscuits, pour them over rusks, split, buts tered and toasted. A relish gelatin or cabbage salad goes well with oyster fixed in any style. } When setting the table for guests ‘allow from twenty-four to thirty | inches of space to a person. This | makes for comfortable seating and | serving. A crowded tahle:is uns | comfortable and somewhat confuss |ing to both hostess and: guests.
