themselves with a string of broken marriages before they begin to understand the nature of love. Natalie Wood seems to follow the pattern. There were Scott Marlowe and Martin Milner, Tab Hunter, Dennis Hopper, Nick Adams (to whom she was rumored married), Bob Vaughn, Jimmy Dean, Elvis Presley. (Elvis with Hollywood still a dream ahead was asked what he’d most like to do if and when he ever got to Hollywood. He said, “I’d jus’ like to date that Natalie Wood. I read about how fickle she is and I’m fickle, too, so we should get along jus’ fine.”) But Natalie wasn’t fickle. She was a rebel and she had a cause. What she wanted and needed more than anything in the world was love. “I don’t know how people can exist without love, far less work without it,” she said as she swooned altarward with Bob Wagner. And she’s still chasing love, still reaching out — this time for a man who isn’t altar-bound. Tuesday Weld started out the same way, dating every boy in every picture, dancing the fastest, laughing the loudest. She was fifteen when she came to Hollywood and within a year she’d kicked over the traces. She was getting the reams of publicity that go with a Clara Bow or a Lana Turner — or a Tuesday Weld. Then she met Gary Lockwood and for a year it was only Gary Lockwood. It was a different life, a life of quiet dates. They cooked at her house in the hills, they spent days on his little boat, then the romance cooled. Tuesday isn’t rushing into marriage, maybe she’ll still beat the rap that follows little-girl loves. “She’s smart enough to realize that happiness is better than nonsense,” Gary said when they were inseparable. “I’ve seen her have more fun on fifty cents than anyone else could have on fifty dollars.” And Tuesday said then, “He understands me, I never wanted most fellows to understand me. You can’t just sit down with someone one night and say this is how I am. They have to see you in action over a period of time, know you little by little. For this boy I’m willing to spend the time. He’s a rebel like I am.” Rebels against society. Rebels against parental authority. Rebels against studio authority. Read through the histories of the hothouse blooms and you’ll find the pattern. Mary Pickford disobeyed her mother in marrying Owen Moore, Lana disobeyed hers by marrying Artie Shaw, Loretta rebelled and married Grant Withers (her mother tried to have that marriage annulled). Judy Garland married Dave Rose to get away from Mama, Rita married Judson. Liz Taylor asserted herself after she divorced Nicky, Natalie asserted herself after she divorced Bob (her mother was hoping until the last that she wouldn’t divorce him). They are passionate and willful, they break hearts including their own. They live too fast and think too little and give themselves and everything they have to love. But they don't know — for certain — just what love is. Brigid Bazlen isn’t having any, thank you. She’s a little luckier than some, she lias a mother who is hep — a talented columnist and fashion commentator. Brigid comes from a family of talented writers, her aunts have all won distinction, so what’s so new about a girl with a career? She was brought up with definite standards of taste in clothes, in literature, in living. Salome or not, Brigid is not ready to bloom Hollywood style. She goes home when her picture is finished and leads a teenager’s life. She’s afraid of the Hollywood rush, the hothouse bloom that leaves you a swinger, yes, but with a cold, cold and often empty heart. — Jane Ardmore Continued from page 49 me. That all the women he knew were sick. Even when he was in Las Vegas with Hope Lange the previous weekend he called me. When he got back to town he invited me out to dinner. He was so lovey dovey the night we dined at the Luau. The next night we were together at La Scala. “Then I suggested we have dinner at my house the next night. Glenn loved my cooking. I used to cook for him a lot when he first moved into his new place. Glenn came over. He seemed nervous. So nervous that he ate three helpings of my wiener schnitzel. He usually has only one. Then he proposed to me. He kept telling me how much he loved me. That I was the only girl for him. “All the while he kept eating. He even polished off three dishes of crepes suzette. Such a charmer he was. He had proposed before, but always before he was crying when lie did it. This night he didn’t cry, and I took him seriously. When I saw he really meant it, I said I would marry him. My children’s governess was in the room at the time. “We both decided we would anounce it that night. We didn’t care if the world knew. So we called Harrison Carroll. He heard Glenn. He knows Glenn. He knew Glenn wasn’t kidding.” Linda was firm. Linda maintained Glenn wasn’t drunk either. “He only had a glass of wine with his meal. We kissed goodnight at 11 P.M., as I had an early call the next day for work. We were to have dinner again the next night and set the date.” All the next day Linda verbally ripped Mr. Ford to pieces. “I’ve gotten rid of a monkey who was full of tricks before and I can get rid of another one. The man needs a psychiatrist. He should be committed to a rest home if he doesn’t know what he’s doing. He doesn't exist “He can go jump off a cliff. If that’s the way he plays, I don’t want to speak to him or see him again. He just doesn’t exist in my mind any more. What really burns me is that I’ve been taken in by his line.
