He is Ivan Lebideff, who was trained in Russia's school for ambassadors, where the first requirement is that the boy's family be of the nobility with a century's record for achievement. . . . And now he's in "The Sorrows of Satan" And she gave the cherry-colored flounce a terrible scowl. I must look up my "Outline of History." I didn't know they had a pants factor} in Eden. CORIXNE GRIFFITH'S contract with First National expires in October and already producers are sending flowers to "the world's most beautiful" with tentative offers. Joseph Schenck, of the United Artists, is said to be interested in directing Corinne's future, while it is certain First National will want her to continue to reap the harvest for them as she did with "Classified", one of the greatest boxoffice successes of the year. Some time ago the Warner Brothers offered her a large salary, which was rejected, and then asked her to write her own ticket. It is understood that Corinne favors the individual unit plan, such as employed by First National and United Artists, but is not interested in signing with anyone until the expiration of her contract. In any event she will take a vacation of several months, probably touring Europe. Her latest role is that of the ill-fated Russian princess. Tatiana, in "Into Her Kingdom." CHATTING to Doris Kenyon the other day. That beautiful talented girl admitted she had a past a past in which a plumed hat figured prominently. It was when she was a very little girl. It seems the youthful Doris had to wear a brace on her teeth and it was the bane oi her existence. She hadn't heard of l'.linor Glyn at that date nor the movies, hut she was very well aware that the brace around her teeth ruined her charms for masculine eyes, She wanted to have boys walking home from Sunday School with her, and she never did. All of which she blamed on the excess dentistry. It worried her a whole lot and she sought for other wiles. Her mother, being a lady of taste, dressed Doris very simply. All the other girls at Sunday School had hats with plumes on them. All, that is. except Doris. There she was with a brace on her teeth and no plume on her hat. Her sex appeal was nearly smashed to smithereens. Then there came to the same church and to sing in the same choir with Doris and hold up the other side of the hymn book, a wonderful new boy. Doris felt she had to win him. So she saved her pennies, almost one might say, religiouslv. She saved till she got enough to buy a plume. And buy a plume she did and put it on her Sunday hat. Here is the happy ending. That Sunday the new boy walked home with Doris. LOUIS B. MAYER is so glad he's got Greta Garbo under contract that he's almost willing to give her the car she craves. The slender Swedish import proved so fine in her first American-made picture, Ibanez' "Torrent. "that her second, also taken from a novel by Senor Ibanez, is being made into one of those superspecials and will, if mmor is true, replace "La Boheme" at Metro Goldwyn-Mayer's Embassy Theater on Broadway. Yet an automobile almost kept Greta from Metro. Mayer had seen Miss Garbo's work in a foreign made him, "The Atonement of Gosta Berling." This picture, incidentally, was directed by Maurit/. Stiller, who is directing the second Garbo opus, and it is considered an artistic gem. but a positive flop as far as American audiences are concerned.
