Hollywood (Jan - Oct 1934)

CASTILE SHAMPOO NEW I EXQUISITE I NEW! — Marchand's have discovered a formula for a decidedly superior shampoo. EXQUISITE!— Made to make hair lustrous and lovely, not merely to cleanse it. If you have been using any old soap or shampoo, use Marchand's Castile Shampoo for a change, for a wonderful change in the condition of your scalp and the beauty of your hair. Marchand's Castile Shampoo does not dry out the scalp like ordinary soaps do. Marchand's contains the highest grade of virgin olive oil to nourish the scalp and help retard dandruff. Marchand's cleanses gently and thoroughly — leaving the hair exquisitely soft, easy to comb — perfect for waving or dressing. The natural color is not lightened or changed. Best for children's tender scalps and for men with dandruff conditions.

AddressDruggist -City -State Address Enjoys Travelogues j A Word Of Praise for the entertaining and instructive travel -talks that are appearing more and more frequently in current picture programs. Every one of them so far has proven thoroughly enjoyable and I hope that the time is near when we can anticipate a travelogue as a regular part of each program just as we have learned to expect a newsreel. LOLA ARGO, R. R. 1, Dixie Highway, Shively, Ky. Spunky Clara WHY don't we see more of Clara Bow? She is one of the greatest actresses on the screen if she could just get a good break once. Grand in Hoopla, she's my favorite actress and will continue to be. She has a lot of spunk — just what it takes to come back. NELLIE WHITE, White Sulphur Springs, W. Va. No More Mush ! Producers And screen writers seem to think we kids enjoy mushy love songs and pictures. We want film entertainment featuring kids between fourteen and seventeen. Hollywood has lots of this talent. Let's see more of it. BETTY ALLEN, 1549 Farwell Ave., Chicago, 111. Versatile Lewis Stone LEWIS STONE has the finish of i George Arliss, the poise of Clive Brook and the character ability of Charles Laughton. He is being kept in the background entirely too much. It's high time that somebody recognized that Lewis Stone is a star. MRS. ELLEN M. GAULT, 367 E. Black St., Rock Hill, S. C. Ceason Enough CAVALCADE, Tug-Boat Annie, This Living Age, She Done Him Wrong, Lady For a Day, The Bowery and Little Women are just a few good reasons why America spends its evenings at the movies. Old stars like Marie Dressier and Wallace Beery and new ones like Mae West and Katharine Hepburn are reasons enough for us to expect great things from our movies this year. MARY JORDAN, 800 N. Mansfield Ave., Hollywood, Calif. Magnetic Joan TOO bad we haven't more actresses like Joan Crawford! Her vibrant energy seems to transfer itself to you as you watch her on the screen. She makes you feel alive and is a good example of what hard work and determination will get you. MAXINE H. HOAG, 92 Elba St., Rochester, N. Y. Wants Return of Seventh Heaven Thanks To Hollywood Magazine for giving us fans more space to voice our opinions. I hope producers will see this letter and bring back Seventh Heaven (which I missed) as a talkie with Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell. JACK GAYDOS, 1525 Winnemac Ave., Chicago, 111. Nope — Just An Old Custom IS IT against the law to print a book, newspaper or magazine without two or three "rare portraits of Garbo?" If not, please give another face a chance. LLOYD AUSTIN, 3908A Clayton Ave., St. Louis, Mo. Typical American Girl Frances Dee strikes me as the typical American girl. Clean-cut, lovely, frank — and what an actress! In such productions as The Silver Cord and Little Women she has shown outstanding talent and a deep and thorough understanding of her roles. I predict that she will reach starring heights in 1934. ROSE ELEANOR LEFCO, 916 N. Hawthorne Road, Winston-Salem, N. C. No Nudes is Good News LET me protest strongly against the idea propounded by Jay Brien Chapman in his article "Undraped Movies." Aren't they sufficiently undraped the way they are now? Further, I think most of my favorite stars would lose their charm and personality if they were exposed in the nude. Such a daring venture would draw crowds to the theatre for a time, then their curiosity would abate and they would clamor for the stylish wardrobes these stars now exhibit. All things considered, our stars are prettier in their charm-suggesting fashions than they would be "in the raw." OLIVIER LEFEBVRE, 3859 Claude St., Montreal, Canada. Peggy deserves a break More Power to Peggy PEGGY SHANNON'S marvelous work in Society Girl deserves a reward. The roles she has had in her latest pictures have not been worthy of her but they have shown that she has that certain something which all great stars have. May she attain to those heights for which she has so valiantly struggled and which she is so capable of reaching! ($5.00 Letter) FLOYD WHITE, 209 Pacific Ave., Toronto, Ont., Canada. HOLLYWOOD
