w ELL, it's gossip time in Hollywood and . . . Peep! Peep! . . . here comes Old Man NEMO with a hatful of things you ought to know about the ones you love the best. SPEAKING of rabbits, or to be more exact, of rabbit's feet — Dolores Del Rio has one, all dressed up in beads and dangling ornamentally on a formal bag! Mae Clarke wears one around her neck (sort of lavaliere effect) on varied corded chains to match her different costumes! And you 11 never catch Janet Beecher without a tiny piece of Koa wood that she wears on a gold chain around her wrist. The wood bears an inscription in silver that reads, "knock on me!", and believe me, Janet knocks, too, before making any important decisions! THIS is really a very funny month! After a Boy Scout demonstration, some smarty asked Bob Montgomery what he'd do if he were lost in the woods and wanted to light a fire, sans matches. "Humph," said Bob, "I'd rub two boy scouts together!" FOR the first time in her movie career, our buxom Mae West was called upon to take a location trip. All was well until the sun set and darkness sneaked up on the ensemble. In the distance, a coyote howled. Mae shivered. Again the animal turned loose one of those bloodcurdling wails ... a little nearer, this time. "How do you like the wide open spaces? "M-mm-m . . ." Mae murmured, none too enthusiastically. "They're all right in their place, but, give me a roof garden where all the coyotes are the two-legged kind!" • MORE fun on the Paramount lot these days! Bing Crosby and W . C. Fields were arguing about their respective golf scores (and doing a lot of high-powered falsifying, if you ask us) . All of a sudden, finding himself in danger of being outdone, Fields said: "Now, now, Mister Crosby . . . you prevaricate! I don't like men of your ilk!" "That's O.K., Bill," says Bing. "I'm not an Ilk— I'm a Mason!" Mae double-shivered, one of the lads asked. G LENDA FARRELL'S Siamese kitten, 'Frankie," is a honey, but on account of it's double-crossed optics, the poor thing roams around bumping into the furniture and generally getting into lots of bad spots. Alan Hale's tender heart couldn't stand up under Frankie's sorry predicament, so he designed a tiny pair of spectacles, with goggle strappings, and now Frankie can join the boys on the back fence for a bit of midnight harmonizing and dodge everything that's thrown! • DASHING over to the studio cafe for a bite between shots, we couldn't eat for laughing at the antics of Alison Skipworth and Charles Laughton who were doing a swell job of taking off the Charlie Chaplin checks the camera set-up on a scene for his "Production No. Left: Mr. and Mrs. Irving Thalberg and Mr. and Mrs. Clark Gable, snapped as they left a Hollywood premiere. Above: Marlene Dietrich arid Travis Banton, who designs her gowns, attend the opening of the Ballet Russe. Above: At Colleen Moore's party, James Blakeley borrows a reporter's camera and flash-gun to experiment with a little amateur photography on Mary Carlisle. Mary looks scared. 30 The Neiv Movie Magazine, May, 1935
