Name Address City State No Canadian Orders Please print plainly She didn't really mind, though, any more than Lon did. Nancy was wonderful. She and Lon had known each other for ages. Back on the Coast, the two of them and Judy Garland and Van Johnson used to go to the beach together on Sundays. Lon's grandmother, who can cook like a magician, would make them a mouth-watering chocolate cake. They'd go to a place just above a fancy and very select beach club. Then they'd gradually work down till they were enjoying the same silver sands and turquoise sea as the most expensive names in Hollywood. That was the scene of Lon's first and only attempt at life saving. He and Nancy were walking along a bulkhead which stretched out into the water. Nancy had on her bathing suit, but Lon was still dressed. Suddenly Nancy slipped, and was in the water with a wild splash before he could grab her. Lon stood there a second in astonished panic, then poised for a dive. Nancy's head came up and as she saw Lon, in grey flannels and his best sports jacket, about to dive in, her expression was ludicrous. "Oh, no!" she gasped wetly just before her head went under again. Lon went in, of course, and hauled her out. "You're loopy!" she told him with conviction when she was on dry land again. "I can swim enough to keep from drowning, and that sport coat will never be the same." "Neither will I!" Lon assured her solemnly. "I am now a hero." Lon seems to have the faculty, somewhat rare among male movie stars, of having lots of girl friends who are just exactly that — friends. Nancy is one and so is Jeanne Crain and so is Jane Withers. Lon was Jane's first date when she graduated from the child prodigy class into the Junior Miss department. They had a big reunion this winter in Cleveland, when "Winged Victory" was playing there and Jane was doing a vaudeville appearance at a local theater. They were both staying at the same hotel. As soon as Lon found out she was there, he called her room, but got no answer. So — he went out and the first person he met in the elevator was Jane. They had dinner together that night and then Jane had to go and do her act. "Come and see it," she urged. "The Mauch twins are coming." Bob and Bill Mauch (remember them in "The Prince And The Pauper?") had gone to school with Lon and Jane. Lon was entranced with this opportunity of seeing them again. The three of them gave with the "Remember when — " stuff until Jane appeared on the stage. As part of her act she called for a service man to come up from the audience. Lon and Bob and Bill leaped to their feet as one man. "Any one of you will do," Janie said, blushing prettily. But not at all! The three of them marched up together and took turns doing jitterbug routines with her on the stage. As soon as the audience realized who was entertaining them, of course it went wild, and the act was terrific. private woes . . . The first night that Lon appeared in "Winged Victory," the show was in Los Angeles. Jeanne Crain sent him a note backstage. It said "Meet me at the fruit juice bar after the show." Lon felt good about it. It was great to have a pretty girl waiting to congratulate you, even if you did only play a sort of glorified extra. (Yeah, honest, that's all he is in the show. The movie, of course, is different.) Lon bounced around to the fruit juice bar, all happy anticipation. Jeanne was there, right on schedule, looking as sweet as Grandmother's -chocolate cake. But with her was a Colonel, complete with eagles and an air of authority. Lon grinned a sickly grin, received their congratulations, and ducked out as soon as possible.
