Lucille Ball, Collier Young, Ida Lupino and Desi Arnaz added their luster to the occasion. Hollywood opinion is that Jane Wyman's performance in Belinda may earn her an Academy Award. LOUELLA PARSONS' GOOD NEWS So I cannot see marriage for Rita and Ali Khan in the cards. * * * On the other hand, I do see marriage tor Greer Garson and the rich Texas oil man. Buddy Fogelson. Unless, of course, something entirely unforeseen happens. Greer sees no one but the very likable Buddy, and it could very well be that they will be married by the time this appears in Modern Screen. All she says is, "I'll let you know" — and I have to be satisfied with that promise. But if it doesn't sound like marriage, my name is Ingrid Bergman. Both Greer and Buddy had passport photographs taken, and nobody sits for these dreadful things unless they are contemplating an important trip abroad. And also, Greer, who is sorta thrifty with her money, has recently been buying clothes like mad. So I'll miss my guess if the wedding bells don't ring for these two; maybe somewhere overseas, and soon. Personally, I hope they do. Buddy seems very right for the intellectual, sensitive Greer, and I happen to know that she's been mighty lonely since her separation from Richard Ney. * * * Right smack off the train from the East. June Allyson and Dick Powell came directly to my house. They came to quiet the separation rumors that have been much too persistent ever since June went to New York and Dick to Arkansas on separate vacations. I must say I never saw two people act more like turtle doves than Junie and Dick during their call on me. Dick admitted that June had dined out a few times with Peter Lawford when they were working together on the same picture. For her part, June gave that cute giggle of hers and confessed that she loved dancing and occasional nightclubbing — which Dick frankly doesn't go for. She said that their picture schedules had been in conflict lately.
