Modern Screen shoe leather pacing up and down Zeppo's study where they work. • Gene Raymond and Jack Oakie are two of the most devoted sons Hollywood has ever seen. Jack and his grey-haired mother are closer than just mother and son . . . they're pals. And maybe you've heard that after one of the town's most dazzling premieres, Jack escorted "Mom" to the Roosevelt Blossom Room . . . and danced every dance with her until the wee small hours. Another Paramounter — Gene — confines most of his social efforts to entertaining for his mother. Not long ago he gave a party for her birthday and he couldn't have taken more trouble with arrangements for it, if the guest of honor had been his most beloved sweetheart. • You can never tell who is sitting near you at a movie theater in Hollywood. One night in the darkness of the theater, two girls were discussing a lot of preposterous filth they'd heard about the Barrymores. When the house lights flashed on, Lionel himself got up from his seat just behind them and nonchalantly whispered to them : "Okay for sound !" • London has been very excited just now over the visits of American film celebrities, Joan Crawford and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., and Laurel and Hardy. They had not been in London ten minutes before they were whisked off to the Savoy Hotel to be introduced to a representative gathering of scribes and, incidentally, the best that England can provide in the way of alcoholic liquor. Every conceivable drink was offered to the two comics, and while Laurel was sampling them all one after the other, Hardy was in a corner drinking lager beer. "This is what I call a drink," he remarked appreciatively. The Fairbanks' were shown to the Press at a luncheon, but neither of them would talk. Joan ejaculated "Bless You," and sat down again, while Doug said little more. Doug and Joan ran around with London's smart set, and Royalty has been present at some of the gatherings they have attended. But it is the two comedians who have captured the imagination of the masses, and they have had three times as much newspaper space as the young married couple. One London newspaper sent a reporter round the city on a sight-seeing tour with Hardy, and everything he did, from taking photographs of Buckingham Palace to watching, awestruck, the Changing of the Guard, was chronicled.
