♦ ♦ ♦ The pretty Wampas Baby Stars, shown on these pages, were much in evidence at the Pageant of Jewels Dolores Del Rio, hostess to the Wampas Baby Stars, says the customary "few words" over the microphone. Behind her is Ivan Lebedeff, her escort. To her left is John L Johnston, President of the Wampas. At the right is Conrad Nagel, the Master of Ceremonies and announcer of the fete. First National Studios were represented in the Wampas Baby Stars by Joan Blondell. She has already appeared in a number of pictures among which the most popular was "Illicit."

In other words, Mr. William Powell, ace star of Warner Brothers Pictures, and Mr. Richard Barthelmess, ace star of First National Pictures.

Incidentally, we refer you to our story concerning Elissa's ancestors on page 62. We wanted to secure the truth for you on this much talked of matter. And we did! 39
