LOUELLA PARSONS' GOOD NEWS Funny faces by Kaye and Sinatra. In Danny's new picture, "Wonder Man," he plays twins of opposite temperaments; talks Chinese, sings in Russian, dances a la Balinese! black velvet band tied around her throat and another holding her hair back. Alice wears very little makeup these days, too. But her four years of marriage with Phil Harris have put the mark of "happiness" on her and that's the best beautifier in the world. I have to tell you how I got the "scoop" on Humphrey Bogart's real marriage date to Lauren Bacall. I had called Bogey at the studio and asked him when it was.

Then I called Bogey and told him he would be able to get married around May 20th or 23rd. (Continued on page 64) See Shirley Temple's dad? She's alienating Hoys office with pretty torrid love scenes in "Kiss And Tell." Swank school she attends objected to publicity received! Plans to head east and discuss legitimate stage role with George Abbott. Walter Pidgeon (that's Mrs. P.) is never happier than when he's working with Greer Garson, even if she cops the glory! 62
