grow better. Domestically, they didn't, but her pride held her back. She wouldn't admit failure. "Now that she has admitted it, she's got a fight for freedom on her hands. I don't know what will happen to her after she gets the divorce. She has many qualities which will frighten the potential husband she wants and needs. After all, you can't find many men who can equal her earning power. "You read a lot about Susie and Jeff Chandler. Jeff is a well-balanced man, and a strong man. As an actor, he hasn't realized one half of his potential. He would make her a fine husband if in another five years Susan would abandon her career and let him take care of her. "In another five years she'll be forty-one, and maybe by then she will be ready for domesticity. But for the last nine years, she has not only worn the pants in her house but she has controlled the purse strings." When Susan filed for divorce, she asked the court to issue a restraining order to prevent Jess from visiting her and slugging her. "Defendant," she claimed, "has more than once during the last two months inflicted physical harm upon affiant. Since the separation of the parties, defendant came to affiant's residence and used physical violence on affiant. By reason of defendant's conduct, affiant has reasonable grounds to fear that unless restrained, defendant will attempt to see affiant, will attempt to annoy and molest her by physical violence and otherwise." END m. s. top ten for 1953 (Continued from page 27) right about them as you were about Marilyn and we wish them as much success. For you are discriminating judges. You may promote stars slowly, rung by rung, up the ladder to popularity peaks or you may whirl them high on the strength of only one performance. They have to be good to make it — and they have to be great to stay there. So don't go away. We're proud to present your choices and we congratulate you on your good taste. The editors join you in congratulating the winners, and extend our thanks to all of you who voted in our monthly popularity poll. Thanks, too, from Hollywood's movie-makers who recognize in your opinions the most accurate indicator of star popularity. They are grateful, as we are, for your judgment. end I SAW IT HAPPEN On the night of President Truman's Inauguration Ball in 1949, I was among those gathered outside the back entrance of the Armory, waiting to get a close look at President Truman. After a long time, someone from behind the crowd shouted, "Attention!" And Lou Costello bowed, skipped, and hopped into the Armory. He was such a cute little man I wanted to hug him. And after the long wait he left the crowd laughing and happy. Delores Ligon West Paducah, Kentucky Noted Beauty Authority Advises Dorit Fool With Pimples . . -~ bv -1 by MARCELLA HOLMES (Former Beauty Editor of "Glamour" Magazine) "As a beauty editor many people have asked me, 'what should I do for pimples?' I always say, don't try just anything on them! Acne-type pimples are a serious condition that if neglected can permanently mar your looks. So use a medication specifically developed for pimples, and not multi-purpose skin creams or ointments that are claimed to be 'also good for pimples.' "No general purpose cream or ointment provides in a fast-drying greaseless base the specific medical ingredients so necessary in the treatment of pimples. Fortunately, today, there's a modern, scientific medication developed especially for pimples — actually tested and proven by leading skin specialists. This medication is called clearasil. New-Type Greaseless "Base" "The specific medications in the clearasil formula are contained in a new-type oil-free 'base'. This new 'base' material is not only greaseless but is also oil absorbing. Thus this new scientific formula may be said to actually 'starve' pimples because it helps to remove the oils that pimples 'feed' on. "clearasil is antiseptic, stopping growth of bacteria that may cause and spread pimples. And since it is nongreasy, stainless, it may be left on day and night for uninterrupted medication. Skin-Colored— Hides Pimples "This new clearasil medication is skin-colored to hide pimples while it works, and to end the embarrassment of pimples instantly. "So again I advise, don't fool with pimples. General purpose creams and ointments have their proper uses, but don't depend on them for treatment of pimples. Treat this specific condition with a specific pimple medication." Proved Effective By Doctors — Guaranteed In skin specialists' tests on 202 patients, 9 out of every 10 cases were cleared up or definitely improved. And when 3002 nurses tested clearasil, 91 out of every 100 nurses reporting said they preferred it to any other pimple medication, clearasil is guaranteed to work for you as it did in the doctors' and nurses' tests or money back.
