Street Gossip of the Pacific Coast By FRITZI REMONT Los Angeles, (Special). — It's a welle.stablished fact that when any one wants to raise funds for charitable purposes, the motion picture field is combed for cuties first of all. At Clune's Auditorium, just before the holidays, the Los Angeles Examiner arranged a monster benefit, at which nearly everybody tried to insert a bit, with the effect of keeping us out of bed until 2 a. m. one Sunday morning. Ren Alexander aroused a lot of amusement bv playing director behind a big camera, with Charlie Murray as chief actor. His instructions, coupled with much delightful semaphoring and facial maneuvering, made one of the hits of the evening. The genial Mr. Murray had been billed to tell funny stories, but introduced himself by .saying that he knew more "stag" stories than any other sort and that, if the ladies would retire from the audience, he would be pleased to entertain the men folk. One of Cecil De Mille's playlets was produced with telling effect, Bebe Daniels sang lovely ballads, Mary Miles Minter told anecdotes and — oh, well, what's the use ? Everybody was there and saw and conquered. Gloria Swanson, the adored of many swains, has gone and done it. She is off on her honeymoon with Herbert K. Somborn, who is with Equity Films Corporation. This is Miss Swanson's second venture, altho she is only starting to tick off her twenties. She will continue her screen career, having several years' contract with Famous Players-Lasky Company to fulfil. Conrad Nagel is starting as a star on the same lot, doing "The Fighting Chance," Robert W. Chambers' exciting novel, under Charles Maigne, who has but lately arrived also. 'j'he lot at Vine and Selma streets, Hollywood, looks rather lively, with eleven companies working hard. Uncle George Melford is now a feature director, and several new directors have been added to the list, among those being Thomas Heffron, who is megaphoning Major Warwick and Lois Wilson, who is making her first appearance opposite the soldier-star. Miss Wilson looks about sixteen now; she keeps getting younger and prettier and is one of the best-foved girls at the studio. It was just about two days before Christmas, a frightfully warm spell that we had, and Lois was sauntering about, packageT laden, awfully excited over the exchange of gifts. She wore a sheer little frock of some lace-trimmed buff material, and was made up for the afternoon scenes with the Major. I saw Wanda Hawley in a blue suit and ditto turban, looking exactly like one of those blonde "Baby Vamps" the stores are selling nowadays. She is playing opposite Br)'ant Washburn this time, in "Mrs. Temple's Telegram," which James Cruze is directing. Stop I We cant. We haven't a minute to spare. We are trying to catch up. We have to make up for that time we lost in taking off that tire, punctured by the printers' strike. The race is a hot one — it looks as tho we might be beaten, but ■ Lool^l We are not the only ones upset by punctures, and blow-outs, and strikes, and things — and the race is even again — and Listen! We have an idea ! We are going to win yet. We will leave the punctured April issue of The Motion Picture Classic by the roadside, and will catch up by putting out an April-May issue! BIGGER — BRIGHTER —BETTER than ever. Remember the date. April 15, 1920! Wait for this new novelty number which will fully compensate you in every way for the unavoidable delay! M. P.
