Hollywood (Jan - Oct 1934)

It's All a Mystery ! LESS than a month after Sidney Fox ' and Charlie Beahan, the author-producer, celebrated the first anniversary of their marriage by being re-wed, they were en route to see the judge. Just what happened to change their great love into hate overnight is a mystery to both Sidney and Charlie. Buster Starts Over A More Subdued, saner Buster Keaton will star in a series of two-reel films as his first step in a campaign to regain the heights upon which he was so long enthroned. When Natalie Talmadge divorced him and he married May Scrivens, who nursed him through an illness, the comedian turned over a new page, disappeared from the spots where he had earned a reputation as a playboy, gave up hard liquor in favor of beer, and settled down to the task of being a successful husband. And May will tell you that Buster is an ideal fireside companion! Can't Stop Janet FOILED in her attempt to annul her marriage to that European prince via the New York courts, Janet Snowden, oil heiress, will seek a Reno divorce. Meanwhile, William Gill, one-time husband of the late Renee Adoree, who will wed Janet as soon as she is free, is campaigning for a talkie contract for his bride-to-be. Despite the fact that her fortune runs into the millions, Janet insists she'll never be happy until she has a chance at a celluloid career. Lee Marks Time Lee Tracy will shortly return to the i screen! Metro's erstwhile bad boy, who was shunted into retirement following his now famous scene on a Mexico City hotel balcony, will be signed by another major studio as soon as chatter about the incident has subsided. That's why Lee is refusing lucrative Broadway stage offers. Meanwhile, Isabel Jewell and Lee have moved back their wedding date until fall. It was done at Lee's suggestion. "I love Isabel too much to marry her before I've lived this thing down," Lee explained, "I love Lee and I intend to go to the altar with him," said Isabel. "I know he didn't do anything wrong down in Mexico, and I certainly wouldn't turn away from him even if he had." Mimi's Secret is Out MIRIAM J O R D A N'S colleagues didn't even suspect that she was a married woman until she filed suit in a Los Angeles court to divorce Joseph Davis, New York and London, whom she charged with "laziness and profligacy." Mimi and Joe have been separated since 1926. Ever since Mimi, returning to Hollywood from an Eastern vacation a few months ago, announced the loss of "a costly engagement ring," her friends have been puzzling over the name of the bridegroom-to-be.
