7 SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF INTEREST, TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE SUE JONES, Editor Having just lifted the silver vegetable dish off the copy paper (small apartment, y’know—dining room table doubles as a desk!)— yours truly can’t help but pause a minute to appreciate the radiant enjoyment derived from the strange and lovely flowers—steph- anotis, hibiscus, jasmine, — and the constant reminder of the glo- ries of .the firmament and the ocean which are more apparent here than any other place— Sure shouldi’t be rhapsodizing— *eause right now Time and Dead- lines are the aspirins for my pres- ent “manana” fever and am afraid, lovely thoughts for the mo- ment will center on—guess what— uh huh — the SHOPS in OUR TOWN! SSemeez dune is the month for brides, and the Mar-Ed Dress Shop, 421-B Duval were instrumental in bringing to Our Town a charm- ing lady with a service which has become well-known in other ridal, Consultant’ here means Miss Camille Stark. She is at Mar-Ed’s every afternoon. May | urge you fo hear her valuable information on what is correct for the perfect formal wedding. Have had several in- quiries regarding such things as proper length of veil—fashion for the Bride's Mother—if a widow remarries, what shade should her gown be—these questions and any you wish to ask will be answer- ed by Camille Stark whose back- lists such top stores as Bonwit Teller, Saks 5th Avenue, Tappe, and extensive radio ex- perience. \ seep 8= In talking with Mrs. Carola Net- tles (or should I call her ‘Miss Red Cross’?) the other day—an urgent need for volunteer drivers KEY-notes: Gertrude and “San- dy” Sandquist are digging and Planting and enjoying their new home on Duck Avenue—also, the Usual problems of ‘just moving in” which accompany the pleasure of having your very own house. SS=zes Are you embarrassed because you don’t know how to dance? Have you heard of the “Arthur Murray Dance Studio” at 517% Duval?? Learn in air conditioned comfort to have “dancing feet’. With excellent instruction — Practice at the Arthur Murray Studio parties—you'll be able to dance and do a good job of it.

My Red Shawl tells me she looked lovely. And to all the other girl gradu- ates—know how thrilled you were on this night of nights in your life. Congratulations — best wishes and Bless you All! SS 28s Aaah — Faith and BeGorry— ‘tis sshhurrrre the wee elves themselves who brought that pure linen from the old countreee fo the Pioneer Fabrics Shop, 622 Duval. Indeed only the fairies of that far-off Emerald Isle could have been responsible for the heaven- was discussed. Am a bit at a loss as to just how to tell you all about this. You see there are three wives in Our Town who have just return- ed from the Variety Hospital in Miami apd they are in need, of daily: physio-therapy for polio. So far the Red Cross has been trying to carry the load of driving the ladies to and from. the hospital. However, a car pool is the answer. The hospital has arranged to give the treatments at-8:30yeaech day and if drivers could ited— for just one trip a W er to or from—invaluable.@lp, both to the Red Cross and the ladies, would be given. So, phone 2-3651 or yours truly if you canspare a Tit. tle time for a vital cause, se Detective agencies have their Pinkertons—and all the watches in Our Town have—Mr. Pruitt at. 402 Southard Street! With his little magnifying glass, (Private Eye Pruitt) he'll soon discover what's missing when time goes on, and your watch doesn't! So—Pruitt’s for the solu- tion to “whaddunit to my watch"! Ssezass In writing the above—about the need for rides to the hospital for post-polio therapy—remembered a tragic case. Several years ago, in Our Town, there was a little kid—oh, guess, he was only about seventeen or so months old, A cast immobilized him from the waist down. He lived deep in the heart of Poinciana and his mother had to carry him each day a goodly distance to the bus for the trek to the hospital—and each day return. She was quite frail and his care was a_twenty- four hour thing. It was then that I learned of the long, exhausting trips which were so necessary to recovery. Yes, I drove them many times and in so doing, got to know the little kid pretty well. He was such a cheer- ful and brave tyke that I never once regretted what at times prov- ed to be an inconvenience. Now, however, volunteers are asked to make the trip only one way—so that the ladies may even- tually walk. No—never did find out how the little kid fared. His was a rocky future and unfortunately, lost track of him completely — but, shall never forget the lad. Z2efjese : Johnson's Jewelry and Gift Shop, 624 Duval Street have the “gems for me” — AND YOU TOO!

CONVERTED CURTAINS Oiled silk shower curtains worn out? Before you throw them away, cut out the usable parts and make them into waterproof aprons or make-up capes. HOLLYWOOD W-—His friends, you-have to change your plan to ‘ will tell you that the least likely peson to be a movie producer is Bob Waterfield, the vro football great. But he is toiling daily in an of- fice at the Goldwyn studio, making preparations to film six big pic- tures. The office is done in modern tones, with black and brown decor. Does he like the place? “Even if I didn’t, there’s nothing I can do about it,” he said. The decorator, you see, is his wife, a dark-eyed babe named Jane Russell. She is also his partner in Russ-Field Productions, as well as the company’s principal and most obvious asset. But don’t get the idea that she runs the show. At the office, as in the home, her lord and master is Waterfield, the soft-talking but fast-acting quarterback who first starred for UCLA and then for the Los Angeles Rams. He has been her boss for 11 years now, and that’s a main reason why their marriage has survived the sorrows of wedded life in Hollywood. Waterfield goes completely against the pattern for film pro- ducers. The gift of gab is not his; he speaks in brief but sage obser- vations. I asked him how he was tackling the job. “The same way as I would a foot- ball game,” he remarked. “The simile is not too farfetched. “After all, when you go into a football game, you try to plan it all out ahead of time. You may have to switch your plans along the way, especially if the opposition comes up with a defense you hadn’t counted on. “T think it will be the same way with a picture. You have to plan it all out in advance. But then something might happen in the playing that you didn’t foresee.

When I was with the Rams, that’s when we’d use Tom Fears or Elroy Hirsch.” When Jane Russell ended her 13-year association with Howard Hughes, she and Waterfield formed Russ-Field and quickly made a deal with United Artists, which will put up the money and release the pictures. The contract calls for six pictures in the next three years. “Jane will be in three of them.” Bob explained. “‘We hope to get started on one of the pictures with- out her. It may be ‘The Detective,’ a story by Philip Yordan.” SHOE ROD A retied curtain rod makes a handy shoe rack. Tack it on the closet door and hang the shoes by their heels on it.
