Name Address Pier Angeli hovered around Italy on vacation, waiting until the last minute before MGM called her back to this country. Why? Kirk Dougles was in Europe making a picture and she didn't want to get any farther away from him than she could help. * * * Well, the handsome young Frenchman, Jacques Bergerac, who followed Ginger Rogers to Hollywood, may be working hard before the movie cameras soon — his romance with Ginger certainly hasn't hurt his chances for a big career. But Ginger wasn't sayin' anything about marriage while she toiled at Paramount in "Forever Female." Could be she is pretty partial to men named Jack — she was married to a couple of Jacks named Pepper and Briggs. And Jacques spells Jack in English. New game around town, especially played by the stars to kill time between shots on the set — Joanne Dru invented (or discovered) it. You take the name of a state, see — like Texas, shorten it to the abbreviation — like Tex. Then you make up a name like Income, Tex., and you've got it. Some more examples? Okay. Oola, La.; Hangout, Wash.; Noah's Ark.; Feeling, III.; Iron, Ore. Got it? Playing "the" game at U-I on "Thunder Bay" set, Joanne and Jimmy Stewart dreamed up a lot of these. But Jay Flippen, the salty character actor, took the prize. His gems were — Garbage, Kan., and Pig, Penn. Rich, ho ho. * * * Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin had the time of their gagging lives in a Dallas hotel when, in town for the fair, they were loafing around their hotel room and suddenly began getting all the calls from other customers wanting room service. The two wacky ones took all the orders, then repeated completely different ones back to the bewildered customers. They weren't only bewildered — they were hungry, too, because L & M kept up the gag until the management discovered what went on and took care of the situation. * * * No trip for Shelley to be with Vittorio in Italy — she was much too ill with the expected bambino to go to the grocery store, much less across the ocean. Even some of the non-fans of Miss W. were feeling sorry for her. Much, much sympathy from all his friends, numbering in the thousands, for Bing Crosby when he lost his Dixie. He went right on working in his picture, "Little Boy Lost," and seeing his close and old friends, among them Dorothy Lamour. * * * A little sport everybody must rush right out and do right away is the trick thing John Derek, Bill Williams, and Jock Mahoney dreamed up — to keep in trim. They're all horse crazy and between spells of riding they line up three horses, side by side, and see who can take a running leap over the backs of the nags and land either astride the third one or on the ground on the other side. So far Jock, who used to be a stunt man before he turned actor, is the only one who can make it. * * * When Audrey Totter married her Dr. Leo Fred she probably didn't suspect she'd be living at a veterans' hospital — but that's where they set up housekeeping temporarily, until they could find a place of their own. The doctor is on the staff of the hospital, that's why. And the gal who has traveled thousands of miles to visit wounded soldiers now finds it easy to do so — right in her own front yard. Never heard so many raves as the ones over this girl singer, Rosemary Clooney, who sort of inherited Betty Hutton's throne at Paramount when Betty and her new husband, Charles O'Curran, decided to go out for themselves. Rosemary is now Para's top musical star and I hear she's just fantastic in the new Bob Hope picture, "Here Come The Girls," holding her own beautifully with Sky-Nose, Tony Martin, Arlene Dahl, et al. * * * The expected fireworks, anticipated when Tallulah Bankhead came to our town for her part in "Main Street To Broadway," didn't come off — Tallu went very quietly about her work, early to bed, no parties, finished the job and went right back to New York, leaving a pretty disappointed town behind her. It's just when she's loafing that she likes to stir up a storm. * » * Debbie Reynolds got her first trip to Mexico after she finished MGM's "Give A Girl A Break." Her beau, Dick Anderson, followed her there for a vacation and Debbie's first look at the bullfights. She and young Miguel Aleman are great friends, so she had a ball below the border. * * * Barbara Ruick took off from the same studio for a trip overseas — Korea — with a troupe including Keenan Wynn, Walter Pidgeon and Carleton Carpenter. Last year she spent her birthday in Alaska on the same kind of deal — this year it'll be her 20th birthday, probably in Korea. * * * Robert Taylor went off all alone in a car with a trailer truck attached. Off on a horse-buying spree. Pulled into motels at night, so his horses, if any, wouldn't get lonesome. * * » Leslie Caron, sporting a horse-tail hairdo, takes the car and trips off twice a week to art school, leaving her veddy rich husband, George Hormel, to ride a bicycle if he wants to go out. Only one car in the family — besides it's good exercise for the man. * * * When Ave Gardner, Clark Gable, and Director John Ford went into the wilds of Africa to make "Mogambo," there were plenty of guards furnished to protect them from the battling Mau-Mau natives who've been on the warpath. At the rate Ava and Frankie were battling and making up, she'll be right at home. 72
