Rita's Daughters Little Princess Yasmin, daughter of Rita Hayworth and the late Aly Khan, will be a very rich girl when she reaches the age of twenty-one. Aly adored his beautiful little daughter, and very touchingly in his will told his two sons to give her love and protection always. Yasmin, who lives with her mother, is a whiz at playing golf. Her step-father, Jim Hill, the producer, tells me that she beats him at the game regularly. Rita adores golf and there is practically not a day goes by but that she is on the links. Rebecca, Rita's daughter by Orson Welles, has taken off some of her baby fat and is growing tall and attractive. There is a great devotion between the half-sisters even if they are so completely unlike one another both in looks and temperament. Rita is a wonderful mother to both of them. I nominate for STARDOM Juliet Prowse When Barrie Chase, Fred Astaire's favorite dancing partner, walked out on CanCan because she felt the role was too small for her, she couldn't foresee that two characters would be merged into one very strong one. Neither could Twentieth Century-Fox foresee when they signed an unknown leggy girl named Juliet Prowse on the recommendation of Hermes Pan, the choreographer, that they were signing a girl headed for stardom and Frank Sinatra's heart. Juliet isn't a bit beautiful. By most standards, she's too tall. But in her 34-24-35 way, she has what it takes, by which I mean sex, humor and a joy of living that blazed right past the distinguished company of Frank, Shirley MacLaine and Maurice Chevalier in Can-Can and just about knocked Elvis out of his G. I. shoes in G. J. Biues. Elvis was dating her, all during the making of his picture but make no mistake: her heart belongs to Frankie. Paramount, after seeing Juliet in it, is willing to pay a mint to buy her from Twentieth, but Twentieth is not listening. Juliet Prowse is her real name and she was born twenty-three years ago of English parents in Bombay, India. She's danced ever since she was three, has always been a hit, has traveled all over the world but has always been too busy to marry, but she has a boy friend in Italy, Sergio Fadini about whom she is guite serious — or was, at least until she met an Italian in America, named Sinatra. For her originality, her chic, her impudence, her ability as an actress, I nominate her for stardom and of a very high grade, too. A tvhiz at golf, young Princess Yasmin's first love is still her pony. 14
