Barrymore and Howard Compare “Hamlet” Notes John, However, Fails to Remember Lines of Role—Simone Simon Is Almost a Blond. BY SHEILAH GRAHAM. H OLLYWOOD. April 22 (N.AN.A)—Ginger Rogers removed the last of her personal belongings from the home she shared with Lew Ayres, while the latter was vacationing in Mexico. Does this mean the long-delayed divorce action will soon be started? . . . Fans are finding it difficult to recognize Simone Simon now that she has dyed her hair practically blond . . . an energy outlet in the alfalfa ranch he purchased recently in Imperial Valley. LR John Barrymore and ! wslie Howard dining at the Brown Derby and mm_ paring thelr ver- stons of “Ram- let.” The discus- sion did not last long because Bar- rymore could not remember a single line of the role he played with such success on the stage. The b following night Barrymore dined at the same place with Estranged : ‘Wife Elaine Bar- rie. But in spite of all his persua- slon, Mrs. Barrymore refused to re- turn to her mate. It is sad, when you remember that, in his younger days, the great lover could twist any and every woman around his little finger. And now the one girl he really wants refuses to have anything to do with him.

Jean Arthur has joined the ever- | growing band of actresses who refuse to emote if there are visitors present. | Others in this high-hat circle include Garbo, of course, Katharine Hepburn | end Luise Rainer. Martha Raye, accused of similar tactics, explains her reason for banishing guests was that ghe did not want them to get hurt | during her interpretation of an adagio | dance in the picture, “Mountain | Music.” | Nancy Cajroll denies the rumor re- | marrying her to Former Husband Jack | Kirkland . If you thought “Gone | With the Wind” a lengthy volume, have sympathy for Writer Sidney Howard, who is currently trying to cut 250 pages of script down to 120—with- out ruining the story . ..

The most obvious person—Robert Montgomery— commits the murder. But right up to the final expose, the preview audience expected Montgomery to turn into a detective, or his old cocktail-shaking man-about-town. Montgomery gives &n excellent performance, and is to be congratulated on his daring experiment of swapping hero for “heavy” roles. Usually it’s the other way around.

TRIO of one-act plays, con- | trasting in theme, gave the *57” Club of the Sidwell Friends School another opportunity to display before an appreciative gathering the abun- dance of its members’ talent.

RIEN, SYRL THE EVENING STAR, array of foreign born ladies-in-want characterized efficiently by Marjoria Moffitt, Mary Miller, Hildegarde von Boetticher and Margaret Cobey. A quick change in geographic lo- cation found the club's second divi- sion carrying on in darkest India, gravitating about intrigues and ro- mances of Rajpoots, Maharajahs and the like. Outstanding were the efforts of Tula Bunnag, Ethel Huffman and Oleg Troyanovsky in the main roles. Others appearing favorably included Roberta King, Martin Hiden, Mary Louise Holbrook and George Arnold. Labelled a “Fantasy,” Louise Saun- ders’ depiction of “The Knave of Hearts” lived up to its title and also provided the cast ample ground for light comedy which was traversed with aptitude. Roderick Duncan as the famous card personage who pil- fered tarts for a pastime livened the skit with some convincing antics, and William Byers, playing Pompdebile I, added his bit creditably. Ber- tram Barber, Barbara Huff and Katherine Lee were praiseworthy in supporting roles. Vocal and instrumental solos by Miss Lee, Alice King, Joseph White- ford and Everett Gayhart were given in acceptable fashion. Tomorrow night the same show at 8:15. J. 8. C. U.
