Freddie March goes for a mineral brolh concoction that has so intrigued the Garbo company that he has had his recipe printed so the folks can make the mineral-tomato-celery broth at home.
Good for reducing thai waist-line, too, says Freddie.
BACK on the merry-go-round again. The biggest shock of the month is Bing Crosby's transformation from a very careless dresser to a living, breathing example of what the welldressed man should wear!
For months we've gone jittery j'ust watching bo-bo-bo-Bing trekking hither and yon in sloppy, unpressed trousers and a moth-eaten orange sweater. In desperation Bing's brother, Larry, and your commentator stuck fingers in the holes and ripped the orange atrocity beyond all description. Bing simply sighed huskily and went out and bought another one ! On his knees Larry begged his careless brother to take more pride in his appearance. But he might as well have tried coaxing Niagara Falls to go into reverse.
And then, out of a clear sky, Bing saunters into Larry's office, utterly resplendent in an outfit that would have put Lord Chesterfield himself to shame! And, while Larry sits there, gawping, Bing says "You really ought to get a few new suits, kid. It hurts me deeply to see a brother allowing himself to get . . . er, dowdy!"
It wasn't a gag, either, because Bing had actually purchased a complete wardrobe of all the latest models and, at this writing, continues to go places looking like the last word in tonsorial perfection!
Bing is a simple soul and one of the most considerate guys in the world. While working at another studio, his wife, Dixie, caught a terrific cold and Bing was fit to be tied. Not to Dixie's face, however, but every day for a week he heckled Larry into scramming out to the Fox studio and seeing to it that the missus was all right and not over-doing. And. if Dixie reads this, Bing'll tear old man NEMO apart!
Maybe we shouldn't tell this, either, but, every Sunday morning, Bing rises early and drives to Glendale where he attends services at a little out-of-theway church there. Nobody recognizes the famous crooner even though he bellows his head off during the community singing and, until somebody does spot him, he'll have the time of his life.
One more item on the Crosby household."
A few weeks ago we were invited out to Bing's for a cocktail or two. Clara Bow and Rex Bell were there with the comparatively new offspring; Mr. and Mrs. Larry Crosby came in with their two youngsters; and, of course, there were the three husky kids that Bing is personally responsible for.
Leaving us boys in the nursery to keep the collective progeny from getting in one anothers' hair, the three gals walked out to compare notes on baby raising, and, there we were . . . high and dry. Anyhow, high.
Oh, well — the kids were cute. And we know another place we can get a cocktail. . . .
/^ARBO mingles!
^ Or anyway M-G-M bowled us over with the startling announcement that "quite nonchalantly the crowd-shy Gar bo has mingled with throngs!"
It seems that Adrian, the fashion designer, smuggled our mysterious lady
{Continued from page 29)
onto the stage where they were rehearsing the big ballet scene for "Anna Karenina." Standing toe to toe {and heel to heel) with a mob of extras, Garbo watched the ballet from start to finish. And the only nervous one in the crowd was one of the dancing girls who recognized queen Garbo and messed tip her Trotzkv routine with an " off-to-Buffalo" shuffle!
REMEMBER on Marlene Dietrich's last picture when Von Sternberg asked Joel McCrea how much salary he was getting? And, after Joel told him, how Von snorted: "Then would you be so kind as to give me two dollars worth of acting?"
So, several weeks after Joel had walked out of the production in an understandable huff, his home telephone rang.
"Hello," says Joel.
"Hello," a feminine voice replied. "This is Marlene Dietrich."
"So what?" Joel snapped, knowing practical jokers for what they are in this man's town.
"So I wondered if you would like to be my leading man in my next picture?" the feminine voice went on.
"Oh, yeah?" Enough was enough. "Well, you can peddle your papers, Toots. I've been razzed by experts!" and the perturbed Joel slammed the receiver back on the hook.
Next morning, the phone rang again. This time it was the studio.
"Did Miss Dietrich get in touch with you yesterday?" a voice wanted to know. "It was about — "
But Joel didn't hear the rest. He had done as pretty a flop as you've ever seen, and it took the little woman fifteen minutes and two buckets of water to bring him around !
AND was Will Rogers surprised when -*2 the Los Atigeles news distributing association called him on the telephone to get either a confirmation or a denial of the story that he had died suddenly!
Just as he was about to tell the news hounds "No . . . No! . A thousand times No!!" Irvin S. Cobb interposed:
"Don't deny it — yet," he whispered. "Let the public have its fun for a while!"
t) ABIES . . . babies . . . everywhere -*-*... With Adolphe Menjou and Verree Teasdale the newest candidates for a little bundle from heaven!
Adolphe was in the hospital recuperating from an attack of flu when Veree whispered the good news in his ear and the excited man began running up and down the halls and leaping around so much that they decided to let him go home and climb over the furniture in his own house!
JT'S an ill wind, etc. but M-G-M is ■*■ still looking for the advantage in the sou'wester that picked up the synthetic snow from the Garbo set and plunked it down, smack in the middle of a summer garden scene on the Joan Crawford set!
TT'S a tough spot, being the meanest ■*■ man in the world, but . . . we've got to tell you that your latest heart throb, Tullio Carminati, has been going places of late with a stunning brunette, Nina Mitleva.
If this keeps up, maybe NEMO will get a better break?
Tullio can have his brunette (and they do seem to be back in style) but, Jack Oakie opines that he'll stick to platinum blondes "because they look so cool in summer!"
pAUL KELLY is teaching his daughter, ■*■ Mimi, to play polo. And right in the Kelly back yard, too!
Paul has built a practice cage that keeps the ball constantly rolling back to the mallet.
Rising in the stirrups, they knock the elusive white ball around and all Mimi has to do now is learn the same methods from the saddle of a real pony.
Incidentally, M-G-M is so pleased with Kelly's role in "Public Hero No. 1" that they added pages to the script in order to build up the role!
\X7"E didn't believe it until we saw * it with our own eyes, but, Dolores Del Rio has a pair of talking birds that came all the way from Asia!
The birdies look like frustrated crows, speak three languages, English, Spanish and French and sing in two voices, baritone and soprano!
What a break for Warner Brothers if we can just coax 'em to get together on a gold-digger duet?
pAT O'BRIEN'S fan mail gave up a ■* letter from an English professor who bawled Pat out good and proper for the way he massacres the King's English in his picture roles!
Also, several correspondence schools offered him a right snappy course in "English as it is spoke", or something!
What they don't know is that Pat is a graduate of Marquette University and majored in English!
ANN DVORAK and Leslie Fenton *"*■ have declared a moratorium on photographers who dash out to snap pictures of their new home. With the pictures in the local gazettes and the house number showing all too plainly, Ann and Leslie came out of the place one morning to find the front driveway cluttered with ferocious fans, intent on camping there until autographs were forthcoming. Or else!
TF you can imagine it, we let ourselves ■*■ get talked into attending the summer style shovj at the Victor Hugo, last week!
The cocktails were swell, the food was excellent, and the models were the last word in divinity. But, we couldn't take our eyes off Mrs. Clark Gable, who sat directly across from us with a party that included our old favorite, Alice Joyce.
Mrs. Gable is one of the most charming women we know, and it's easy to understand Clark's preference for a woman possessed of depth and understanding, intelligence and wit, rather than the empty prettiness that is so profuse in this town of towns.
Whether you like it or not, gals, that marriage is going to last!
TEAN HARLOW was there, too, with ** her mother. But, so engrossed was she in Jimmy Townsend and the elegant fried chicken with mushroom sauce that we didn't even have a look-in. Ah, the irony of it !
Jean and Bill Powell seem to have called it a day. Which wipes another swell romance off the board. And after devoting himself exclusively to Peggy Watters for months and months, Lyle Talbot all of a sudden starts skittering places with the too sweet Maxine Doyle !
TX/ E had a good laugh at Frank Mor'" gan's expense, the other day on the set.
For hours, he practiced the nautical salute, getting it down to a perfection
