Peter Lind Hayes takes a gander at the aquamarine pendant Desi Arnaz gave his wife, Lucille Ball, on their recent ninth wedding anniversary. (Please Print) he personally coached her in all the dance routines they do together. Colleen's heart, though, belongs to singer Bill Shirley, such a hit in the revue "A La Carte" which had a good run in Hollywood. * * * Deborah Kerr, on location for "King Solomon's Mines" near Nairobi, South Africa, was dining with frieniJs of hers outside the city and was invited to take a dip in their swimming pool. She surveyed the water rather dubiously, since it was quite murky looking. Her friends assured her it was good water, proof being that the lions came every night to drink from the pool. * * * Scoif Brady, who gets around tvith most of the town's eligible gals, is azvfnl glad Dorothy Malone is back in Hollywood. She deserted the village some time back, a-sayin she was goin back to Texas t' stay. Scott and Dorothy met very informally at the beach and had been dating until she ^ave up Hollywood. Now we'll see wo' hoppens to the romance, if any. * » * Jean Peters, who was lonesome for her native Ohio, pulled a Grandma Moses and started painting Ohio farm scenes. Now she's not so lonesome. Jean's rapidly becoming the recipe queen of Hollywood — she's always baking up a batch of doughnuts, cookies, or cake (and this is a true thing). The stuff is so good she has to pass out the recipes with the samples. Jean got to thinking about some extra special Brownies she'd eaten when she was on location in Maine for "Deep Waters" and is thinkin' about phoning the lady who made them and trading recipes. * * * Vera-Ellen, who used to be a Rockette at New York's Radio City Music Hall, went back to visit her former pals when her new picture, "On The Town," opened there. We saw her with her beau, the good looking Roc Hudson, at the preview of this fun picture, along with Gene Kelly, who not only starred but codirected, and Al Jolson, who seldom ap pears at these events. Another surprise appearance at "On The Town" was MGM headman, L. B. Mayer, with his beautiful wife and adopted daughter, Suzanne. * * * V-I starlet Peggy Dow took her first trip to New York for the picture "Confidential Squad," was there five weeks and worked only once — from two a.m. to four a.m. She didn't get any sightseeing done because she was always on call. Back in Hollywood, she's worked every day in the pic. * * * A red-headed, freckled guy we've known for several years, Benny Long, gets a break in Warners' "Bright Leaf" because of Michael Curtiz and Gary Cooper. Benny's got a face that should have been in pictures long ago, but he never got a chance until Mike invited him out to try for the role. "Coop" saw him, liked him, and offered to coach Benny, so it looks like he's in. Burt's Private Life Continued from page 27 reason to be hammy about anything that's normal progress. I must belong to myself, in spite of any opportunities to collect faster by suppressing this imfiulse." They invariably whisper that quick stardom changes the newcomer unaccustomed to the spotlight and big money. I have noted that depends on how susceptible to fame's false phases one is. Burt is as susceptible as steel. He'd been around, broken his heart, knew that for him qualities like self-respect and sincerity amount to more than money and attention. Curiosity and genuine fulfilment shake him, and he cannot disregard either instinctive drive. Once, when he was the most miserable and had conceded he'd failed in show business [as 58
