BROKEN HEARTS ♦ ♦ ♦ Some Hollywood stars seem to flit gaily from one romance to another without apparent heartbreak. But maybe all is not as it seems Bv CARTER BRUCE A BROKEN heart has always been more or less of a subject for joke or song lyrics — to all except those who suffer from it.

June Collyer was getting her name mentioned regularly with Russell Gleason right up to the time she married Stuart Erwin. Jack Gilbert's 'big moment,' the Hawaiian Princess, goes backto her Island and Marjorie King becomes the guest of honor at Jack's beach house. Dot Mackaill and Walter Byron are thata-way until Dot gets out of his sight for a week or so and meets Neil Miller. That business of 'crying my eyes out for you' is just a song so 52
