(Canadian & Fore $2.50 cash in advance) all the mental specifications for this vehicle solidly set in mind. It is to be a convertible coupe, natch; it is to have a radio that will pick up everything but gold from the streets; the upholstery is to be red leather, and the body must be azure blue. White sidewall tires, double fog lights in front, a spot light on the left, and a horn strictly from Dixie will complete the ensemble. So, as things stand, Peggy has only one genuinely serious problem. She wants desperate to attend public high school for at least a year, then she wants to go to a co-educational university. She talks the idea over — and up — to her mother on every occasion. Mrs. Garner thinks that, if studio commitments make it possible, Peggy should spend one high school year away from the Fox lot, in a private girls' school, then attend an eastern woman's university for two years, THEN transfer to a co-educational institution. Mrs. Garner attended Sweetbriar, an exclusive college for women, situated in Vermont. She has already spoken to the president of the college about Peggy. But Peggy prefers the idea of joining a sorority and of being in classes with boys. What do you think about it? Peggy would like to know. M.S. THROWS A PARTY (Continued jrom page 31) afternoon, Peggy took the train from Summit, N. J., to New York, to share the gloom with us; and she came into the Modern Screen office looking like something out of a Russian tragedy. In due time Al and Henry heard the news, and the three of them sat slumped in their chairs like chief mourners at a wake. It wasn't until Peggy had left (to drown her sorrows in a Schrafft's special) that the solution to it all hit Al and Henry. Why not still have a party? They could hire a hall, have Joe Marsala's orchestra provide the music, invite all the stars in town and Peggy could be the guest of honor! In the space of a few seconds the idea had achieved colossal proportions. One of the gals who was eavesdropping from the next room yelled in, "Whee — it's a production!" and someone else said: "You'll practically need a master of ceremonies." Henry snapped his fingers and Al picked up the phone, and that's how Ed Sullivan got involved. Ed, as you know, is the Broadway and Hollywood reporter. He calls the stars by their first names, is a buddy of Louis Prima's and can get a beer on the house in any nightery in town. He's really a fabulous guy with a finger in every pie, from the Harvest Moon dance contest to the Golden Gloves boxing bouts. Modern Screen had just signed him on as a radio columnist, and having him on the staff was sort of like having Louis B. Mayer in the family. "Ed," Al said, when he got him on the telephone, "will you em-cee a party for us?" Ed said yes, and after that things really began rolling. The guest list grew until it included not only people like Gene Kelly, Hurd Hatfield and Danny Kaye, but also 500 members of fan clubs all the way from Baltimore to Montreal! The "hall" the boys had thought of hiring became, at Ed's suggestion, the Zanzibar — jumpingest joint in town. The staff at Modern Screen kept strictly non-union hours, working on into the night on the invitations, arranging the seating, planning the refreshments. And all the time there was that little undercurrent: "Wait till Peggy hears about it!" MOVIE STARS PHOTOS Exciting high gloss shots of your Hollywood favorites in fascinating poses.
