It keeps our Hollywood editor busy "snooping" for you, but here she is with the latest on the film folk ALONG SUNSET STRIP A carload of tourists parked in front of the Cock 'n' Bull for hours waiting to catch a glimpse of Garbo "because they heard she ate there" . . . George Raft a freguent visitor to his tailor's shop, since dating Norma Shearer means more and better looking clothes . . . Lana Turner not heeding a stop light, then halting traffic in the middle of the intersection, and smiling her way out of the mixup. . . . Robert Taylor breezing along in the sunshine with the top of his roadster down, and smiling as if he's veryhappy. Incidentally, Bob certainly enjoyed the vacation he was given after "Remember?" . . . Mary Carlisle tripping into the Raikes studio for her daily vocal lesson. ROYAL RECEPTION No warmer reception was ever accorded visiting royalty than that given Charles Boyer and Pat Paterson on their return to Hollywood. They're houseguests of the Tyrone Powers until their own home is ready for occupancy. Most delighted person in Hollywood, though, is Mrs. Adelaide Reaume, Tyrone's grandmother. She, too, is a guest at the Powers' home on her first trip to Hollywood. Mrs. Reaume makes no bones about the fact that Charles Boyer is her favorite actor — "outside the immediate family, of course." CLOUD OVER OLIVIER There's a dark cloud over the happiness of Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier, in spite of the fact that wedding bells are due to ring any moment and that both have had as many honors heaped on them of late as it is possible to get in Hollywood. At any moment, Olivier may be called back to England for active service. The actor refused to explain the English regimental tie he was wearing the other night when he and Vivien were found dining at the Victor Hugo. 55
