Photoplay (Jan-Jun 1929)

Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section The Rose of Sharon owns four completely furnished homes — two at the beach, one in Hollywood and one in the Wilshire district. Whenever one of the four is vacant, Carmel moves in to keep from losing rent. Last year she won the moving championship of the world by changing her residence IS times in the 12 months, and not ahead of the sheriff, either. TALKING pictures have been blessed and cursed for many things, but it remained for a Los Angeles hotel proprietor to pull the last, lingering word. W. G. Howard, who runs an inn, has sued an adjacent photoplay theater for S3, 500. He says in his complaint that while the silent drama was silent his hotel prospered, but with the advent of sound pictures they began complaining that the racket kept them awake, and that many packed up and quit on him. At the moment of boundiiig and leaping to press the court hasn't acted, and that certainly is a case to turn a Solomon gray and haggard. THE moment has arrived for the monthly gag from Eddie Nugent, one of our fiippest. "She couldn't forget her dialogue," says Edward, "because of the lines in her face." Which sounds like a theme song for a Sennett comic, and allows Mr. Nugent to retire gracefully into the wings for the April issue. V\ 7E point to the craftiest little girl in HoUy"^ wood. Lila McComas is an extra. Some time ago, while filming a scene, she was thrown from the back of an elephant — Heaven knows why or how — and immediately sued the Al G. Barnes circus for 582,000 and a few paltry odd dollars. The case came to trial, and a jury, largely feminine, awarded lamenting Lila a measly S500. She took stock. " I wore pretty flapper clothes," she thought. "Short skirt, low neck and all the rest of the tricks. Mayhap and forsooth, they were jealous." She asked for and received a new trial. .\t the second hearing she wore clothes that grandma would like. Her dress came from neck to ankle, and her hat was less a hat and more a bonnet. When the balloting was over the second jury awarded her $15,000. What price silk stockings now? TLTEIGH HO, Lois Wilson has been playing -* -'-Cupid again! Lois is never happier than when she is promoting lovey-dovey among her pals. Unmarried herself. Miss Wilson seems to think there is nothing like good, old-fashioned romance for her chums. May McAvoy is Lois' warmest girl friend, and certainly deserved a nice beau. Nothing could be simpler than for the sly Lois to introduce ^laurice Cleary to May. It wasn't long until the engagement was announced. In addition to working day and night on stage and in talkies, Lois seems to have a lot of fun acting as volunteer president of the League Against Lonely Hearts. OUT from the shadows came The Old Guard for Fox's fine talker, "In Old Arizona," and many a film fan clucked reminiscently at some of the faces in the film. Tom Santschi, one of the first cinema heroes of the sun-burned west of the Sehg era. Frank Campeau, veteran bad man of both stage and screen. Pat Hartigan, another he-man actor of other days. James Marcus, a Fox standby of many years' standing. .'Xnd Roy Stewart, now almost bald and already over-plump, whom First National tried to sock over as a western star some years back. Even Eddie Dillon, who was a comedian in the far-off Griffith days at Biograph, later a director, and then only a memory.
