LOUELLA PARSONS in Hollywood Continued mm niiiiiiiinii in in iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiini i iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinimiiiiiiiii^ PERSONAL OPINIONS I'll be glad when Marlon Brando gets rid of that blond hair he's wearing for The Young Lions. Doesn't look like himself. . . . Speaking of Marlon, he and his former girl friend, Rita Moreno, don't speak when they run into each other these days. Rita had been so crazy about him at one time that she went all the way to Japan to be with him while he was making Teahouse Of The August Moon. But when they sat at the very next table to each other recently in the 20th commissary, they might have been oceans apart for all the recognition they gave each other. . . . Gia Scala is a perfect delight in Don't Go Wear The Water. She is one of my favorite beauties, with her dark hair and green eyes, and she has such poise. She's one of the new "big girls" clicking in films along with Sophia Loren and Anita Ekberg. There seems to be a vogue for these tall, statuesque beauties in movies these days. . . . The latest stellar gimmick is a wardrobe of clothes the same color as the hair. Lana Turner's new wardrobe is mostly 'tawny' and red-head Rhonda Fleming is wearing many red evening gowns. . . . I predict that popular Hugh O'Brian, by this time next year, '"ill be as famed as an actor and a singer as he is as Wyaff Earp. His record is very good and there is much favorable comment on his singing voice. Hugh hasn't been making any tremendous amount of money playing Wyatt Eaip but I hear that will be 'earpped' right away to keep the boy happy. . . . MARLON BRANDO RITA MORENO HUGH O'BRIAN GIA SCALA HOLLYWOOD'S YOUNGEST DEBUTANTES The Guy Madisons welcome their new daughter, and chose the cutest name for her — Dolly Madison. "No, we didn't name her for the famed President's wife," Sheila Madison told me. "It's just that both Guy and I like the name Dolly — and it just comes out Dolly Madison," she laughed. Guy isn't at all disappointed, he swears, over having another girl. I've been invited to be Dolly's godmother, and I couldn't be more pleased. Another debutante on the Hollywood scene is the daughter born to the Donald O'Connors. Don was so sure it would be a boy — he has a girl. Donna, by his previous marriage— that they didn't have a name picked out right away. They later decided on Alicia. "But now she's here I'm glad she's a girl," Don told me. "I get along well with the fair sex and I may just raise a ltitle harem," he 22 idded. The Guy Madisons just got a little Dolly added to their family. And — now that she's here — Guy swears he isn't disappointed at all that it isn't a baby boy! And the other debutante to make her appearance on the Hollywood scene — is the young O'Connor. Don admits that he was so sure it would be a boy that they were caught all unprepared. But Don and his wife came up with some fast thinking — and everything's all taken care of . . . in the 'what shall we name her' department I I I
