(Continued jrom page 31) before 1940 I won't answer for the consequences. She will be much wiser to wait until 1941." net Gay nor married Adrian before 1940 and, so far as I know, the marriage is a happy one and I hope it continues to be. Deanna Durbin: "For Deanna Durbin this will be a particularly thrilling year because she will have her first real-life romance." That particular romance — with Vaughn Paul — which had not even begun when the forecast was written, is still going on and has been written about extensively. You will meet Deanna again before I close. Alice Faye: "'For Alice Faye this is the most critical year of her entire career and upon her actions and reactions this year hangs her future . . . She will be accused of going Hollywood. Her marital affairs will be upset and. in spite of success, Alice will be a very unhappy girl." She was and still is accused of going Hollywood. She filed suit for divorce from Tony Martin which I told her she would do but did not print because she asked me not to. And I don't think it is any secret that, in spite of tremendous success and of everything any girl could wish for, Alice is not happy. Richard Greene: "His rise to fame will be as sudden as that of Robert Taylor. Women will write to him and follow him and flatter him. . . ." I'll bet a great many of you have helped to make that prophecy come true. And right here I want to tell you that, according to Dick's hands the last time I read them (fall of 1938), he will come through the war safely if he is in active combat. George Brent: "Within two years George Brent will fall in love and will marry the woman if she is free." (I believe he has met her now.) "His life line shows a break which means a sudden serious illness or a narrow escape within the year." (You all must have read in the papers of his serious illness and his narrow escape from death almost exactly one year from the time the article was written.) "Due to a particularly sympathetic part in a good picture, his career will take a sudden upward spurt and he will hit a new high in world-wide popularity." (The picture was "Dark Victory" and it brought George Brent back with a bang.) Loretta Young: "In love again. If this marriage takes place it will not end happily." (Fortunately the marriage did not take place. The love affair ended tragically.) "Next year (1940) brings Loretta into the best period she is ever to have. At this time she will marry and her marriage will endure." Loretta's recent marriage to Tom Lewis has every chance of being a successful and marriage. Her box-office appeal is rising steadily. John Barrymore: "Elaine Barrymore will he the hist woman in John Barrylife." Just before, or soon after (lie magazine containing this enlightening bit of news went to press. John and his Elaine seped with fireworks and much publicity. However, even though my face was red, I still stuck in my guns and insisted that they would he hack together again and the reconciliation took place in the u--u.il bomb hion in a New York night club. Sep. a. ited once more! So what? They will l>e reconciled once more. Marie Wil$on: 1 predict a great future for Marie ii she is properly handled in hei formative I see that Marie is appearing in Paramount's top flight "Virginia" in a new and more sympathetic type of role. So perhaps the people who are responsible for her career are awakening to the fact that they have a real actress in this lovely sensitive girl. Fred Astaire: "And last but not least," I said in closing, "old man stork flutters over the Fred Astaire home." Well, old man stork must have had a long flutter, for to date no news of a bundle from heaven has come from the Astaire home. My advice to Mr. Stork is to light and relax, for it looks as though I will have to give myself a black mark on that one. SO much for 1939. This year, instead of making my predictions from a careful study and analysis of the hands of the stars, I am making an astrological forecast from their birthdays and, as you know, in order to do this with any degree of accuracy. I must have the correct date, year and place of birth for each star whose chart has been made up and delineated. Therefore, while I am not attempting to excuse myself in case of any minor inaccuracies in the predictions, I do want to state that any glaring discrepancy must be attributed to my having been given the wrong birth date. Now for 1941. The tempestuous Katharine Hepburn appears to come out from under the bad aspects which have been dogging her for some time. During most of 1941 she is under good vibrations so far as her public and her career are concerned. From July 9th to the 15th, August 1st to the 20th and October 4th to the 10th, 1941, due to the transiting Mars afflicting her birth chart, she must watch out for accidents and scandal. At these times she will be inclined to be particularly reckless and headstrong and to incur public displeasure through some rash act or statement. Marriage is indicated for her in the spring of 1941. April is the most favorable month for this marriage to take place. No wonder everyone loves Myrna Loy, for she has the Sun and the Moon both in Leo, the sign of the heart, which makes her gracious, kindly, warmhearted and a thoroughly sincere and lovable person. Professionally Myrna is under fine aspects for 1941 and for 1942 also. Her private life, however, is something else again, for ever since March. 1940. she has been afflicted by Saturn, which has caused ! gossip and unpleasant speculation about her marriage. This condition was even more strongly accented during July and August by Mars in Leo. the house which governs the home. The position of her stars show tension, conflict and serious misunderstandings in the home. (Editor's Note: After this article teas written, Miss hoy announced that she and husband Arthur Hornblow Jr. irould separate. See page 52.)
