The redhaired beauty explained how it all happened. She had been | posing for a “high fashion” layout | in one of the sheer nightgowns she | has designed and marketed. “I. didn't think anyone could see thropgh the nightgown,” she re- ported, ‘‘and the magazine weuld not let me approve the proofs. At the end of the sitting, the photog- , rapher took a few shots with my | hair awry. 1 thought they were | only going to be for my amuse- ment, but they turned out to be the shots in the magazine.” | The photos left little to the imag- inaiton. Arlene said she was shocked, and so was her father. His comment: “Marilyn Monroe did not go as far.’ (This may be | cepted as an exaggeration by any- | one who has seen the famed cal- endar pose.) “And several of the ministers in my family background must have been spinning in their graves,"’ Ar lene sighed But the poses apparently had film producers spinning, too. The actress reported that they viewed her in an entirely different light. “They used to think of me to play cool, unattainable heroines,” | she remarked. “But now I'm get. ting scripts that would have me as fiery, sexy women. Until now, I have generally drifted over movie | sets in an ethereal manner. But now I have the chance to play vibrant characters.” She was vibrant, all right, when I saw her in costume for “desert legion." She sported a dazzling out. fit with sheer pantaloons that gave a good view of her shapely gams. She was supposed to be a princess jim an African Shangri-La, or some | darned thing like that. You know to how these costume epics go | Miss Dahl is a busy little bee these days, what with writing a Beauty column, incorporating right and left to sell her own fashions and trying to make a go of her marriage to Lex (Tarzan) Barker Everything seems to be hunky- dory in the latter department, a: least it was as this went to press. | Tarzan and his Dahl bave split tand reconciled in their brief months of marriage. I asked her if their troubles were due to life in Hollywood. i “Ne, our problems have nothing | \to do with the fact that we are both im pictures.” she replied [They are the same adjustment difficulies that every sewiy mar. ried couple goes through.” She de | clined to elabarste She seemed happy that Barker is escaping the Tarsas type and my studies next summer, or will I lose out because I skipped, a. sum- mer? A. You will be permitted to con- tinue with your GI studies next summer, since this summer's in- terruption has been for a reason’ beyond your control. Of course, you must continue to be employed as a teacher during consecutive regu- lar school years. Q. I am a peacetime veteran, playing in an Indian epic.
