ENTOUS ERRORS. —By BURTIS = THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, APRIL 14, 1930. l mfim ‘*u ] BY MOLLIE HOLLYWOOD, April 14 (NANA).— Ladies of the past provide the colony | with this week's romance. Pauline Frederick and Agnes Ayres slip into that never-failing spotlight of Cupid, although the spotlight of professional acclaim has been growing dimmer these | late years. Polly Frederick’s marriage to Hugh Leighton, president of the Interstate| News Co. of New York, will be her fourth matrimonial venture. She has| alternated her interests of late between the stage and screen. Her Hollywood experience carried her into the shadowy purlieus of Poverty Row in the pre-| talkie days. That term is anathema now. Some of the lads who created this| row of squat, shabby buildings in which | silent pictures were made by hook or| crook (or any implement save money) | hiss back at one who terms them Pov- erty Row-ites. Talkies didn't swing Pauline Fred- erick into the front rank of the pro- fession, although she has_always been a clever actress. Willard Mack, one of her ex-husbands, on the other hand, has had signal success in the new art. And Agnes Ayres’ engagement to| Lewis Milestone recalls the fact that the beauty who once was Rudolph Val- entino's leading lady has had but little success outside of an occasional vaude- ville tour these several years. Slim now—fat was the instrument of her divorce from the cameras—the pro- fession of which she was once a shining | tion. MERRICE. light has passed into other hands largely. That is why those en rapport with the colony get a bit feverish over comebacks. Bill Powell's English is something to think about. In a recent revue he ap- pears in a mystery skit which includes | Clive_Brook, Eugene Palette and War- ner Oland. The words “suspect” and “premature” are used by all members of the group. But Powell's pronuncia- tion of the two words is the correct one. See how you “see” them and then look them up for yourself. You'll never for- get it. One of the outstanding things about the Sansum reducing dietary is the fact that skimmed milk is given at every meal. There is a noticeable ab- sence of the grapefruit, which was the star element in the 18-day diet which swept the country a while back with, in many cases, disastrous results. Sansum’s diets vary with the indi- vidual. Mary Miles Minter took off some 30-odd pounds under his direc- Her diversion these days is voice culture. But reducing still remains the popular indoor sport of Hollywood. Clara Bow's present weight is 107 pounds. Reduced from 127. Nor is she haggard and wan; never perkier. ‘The word “scram” at present writing threatens to oust the “okeh” of the village in popularity. Any change is welcome after the first hundred thousand hearings. (Copyright, 1930.) i l Daily Cross-Word Puzzle | 1. Courtyard. . .6. A beverage, 11. Plant juice. 14. Lengthwise. 15. Senile. 16.
