PORTRAITS Marion Davies is to be seen in "Blondie of the Follies." It's a story of three chorus girls. Billie Dove is one of them— besides Marion. Marion was born in Brooklyn. Her real name is Marion Douras. She has three sisters. She was educated in public schools and a convent. Started her career as a modiste's model. Then Harrison Fisher used her for a model for his magazine covers. After that came the Follies and the movies. She is an everlasting bridge hound. She" wears pajamas on all possible occasions. Favors an odd shade of pale blue so much that the Hollywood modistes now call it "Marion Davies blue." 19
