Photoplay (Jan - Jun 1943)

Frenke, for a role in the film "The Girl From Leningrad." Speaking of Marlene, did you, by the way, see her picture in a magazine captioned "thirty-eight-year-old glamour girl?" Now is that nice, we ask you? Cat's Alphabetical News: A — Alan Ladd and Sue Carroll will have to disappoint fans who have already named their coming offspring Alan Jr. There is already an Alan Jr., a five-yearold lad of Alan's by a former wife. B — Lt. Burgess Meredith and Paulette Goddard have gone into business. They have purchased a bicycle shop on Western Avenue and sell machines to defense workers. C — Clark Gable, who expects and hopes for active duty very soon, is rumored as being "commanded" to return to Hollywood for a propaganda picture. Hurray! D — Don Ameche is the only star of the old group left at Twentieth Century-Fox. Don, being the papa of four boys, is Army exempt. E — Edgar Bergen has tried everywhere to enlist, only to find himself blocked by Uncle Sam. Edgar is on the Government's "selected twenty" list to be called upon to entertain the boys any time at any place they are sent. So are Bob Hope and Nelson Eddy. F — Frank Morgan was chosen the favorite "liar" of the boys at Camp Roberts and will be on hand as special guest on '"Liars Day." Frank's tall whoppers on the radio earned him the distinction. G — Gladys Robinson, wife of actor Edward G. Robinson, is seriously ill in a Glendale sanitarium. H — Hedy Lamarr has been discovered by actor John Loder and wow! I — Ilona Massey is setting hearts thumping in New York, especially Georgie Jessel's. J — Jane Withers will enroll at U. C. L. A. next semester. K — Kaaren Verne is expected to marry Peter Lorre any minute if she isn't already his bride. L — Loretta Young is so happy because husband Tom Lewis is now a Lt. Colonel. Lt. Col. Lewis's duties concern overseas entertainment for the boys. M — Martha O'Driscoll doesn't care who knows she loves Bill Lundigan. Or is it Mrs. Bill Lundigan by now? N— Nelson Eddy's first trip to the Universal commissary (Nelson will make "Phantom Of The Opera" for this studio) had all the waitresses begging for autographs. The way the women go for that man! O — Orson Welles has discovered Maria Montez, which was inevitable. P — Paul Henreid is slowly recovering his health after a six months' struggle with a nervous disorder due to his hectic experiences in Austria. Q — Questions are being fired right and left at Mr. Steve Crane's military and marital status these days. R — Ronald Colman and his wife have closed their Beverly Hills home and will rough it on their ranch for the duration. S — Susan Peters and Richard Quine grow more and more serious. T — Tony Quinn has been appointed entertainment counselor for all Spanishspeaking American soldiers and works at it day and night. U — United Forces are giving daily thanks to Bette Davis for the warm hospitality at the Hollywood Canteen these winter nights. V — Victor McLaglen's son Andy is the most disappointed lad in town. His 6'7" height is one inch over Uncle Sam's APRIL. 1943 "If I waited for a dinner date-I'd starve! // Joan: The only dates in my life are those on the calendar. . . but the fellows stand in line to take you out!
