p Joan Caulfield co-starring in “Dear Wife“o Paramount Picture Hollywood's Most Amusing Love Stories “While it takes only three basic implements to give a manicure,” says Miss Jacot, “it takes implements of La Cross precision quality to give //~v\ a perfect manicure.” That’s why so many professional manicurists prefer La Cross to any other manicure implements. And that’s why celebrities like Joan Caulfield, whose hands get La Cross salon care, choose La Cross implements for home manicures, too!

Now that all is over between these two, I wonder who will come along to take their colorful place. Whoever it is will have to possess a real sense of the dramatic! Bob Hope, talking about the great Hollywood lovers, said, “When Kirk Douglas meets a girl, lights go on in his head.” That’s a wonderful description of Kirk on the love rampage. But Kirk didn't turn on the switch until after “Champion” and his separation from his wife. Until then, he seemed a quiet kind of sheep. However, wolf’s clothing becomes him. Evelyn Keyes found it so attractive she even joined his gymnasium. BACK a few months when Howard Duff was romancing Ava Gardner, before Pat DiCicco bought her the beautiful sevencarat diamond ring that she still wears, Howard lived at the beach. And had a party line telephone. He never received or made a call that everyone on the line didn’t lift their receivers. They hoped, of course, that it was Howard calling Ava or vice versa. It usually was. And what the listeners heard shouldn’t happen to eavesdroppers. It did seem that Ava and Howard never were let off anything. Mother Nature should have been on their side. But she wasn’t always. There was that day Howard got his new Cadillac convertible. He dated Ava for that evening, of course. Ava lives up a mountain road which becomes steep just before it reaches her hilltop house. The Cadillac took that hill like a purring kitten. Howard was bursting with pride when he parked in front of Ava’s house. It was, presumably, simultaneously with the goodnight kiss that there sounded the most frightful roar, then a crash. The hillside had caved in! On Howard’s Cadillac! Hollywood gossip isn’t the fun it used to be before D.O.S. (David Oliver Selznick to you) took Jennie for his bride. There was the day David was having a big musical scoring at the studio. The phone rang. Jennifer Jones was calling. She had something important to ask David, what dress she should wear that day, probably. He must see her right away. “Wait,” David is said to have told the musicians, “I’ll be right back.” He was back all right, three days later! When Shelley Winters was on location in the mountains with Montgomery Clift for “A Place in the Sun,” and she cracked, “It’s so cold up here I’ll just have to get married,” Monty couldn’t take the hint. His companion of ten years, Mira Rosovskaya Letts was on location with him. This is one of the oddest duos Hollywood has seen in a long time. But Monty swears Mira, from whom he is inseparable, is his drama coach only. Happy coaching! To get back to Shelley. Her romance with Farley Granger has been publicized so (yes, I plead guilty, too), that some people can’t believe Farley would go out with anyone else. When he was in New York he made a date with Geraldine Brooks to see a movie. “Meet me outside the theater,” Gerry told him. Farley, pliable in the hands of the so-called weaker sex, arrived on time. No Geraldine. A group of young girls who collected from nowhere began whispering. Then they descended upon Farley. “Pardon us!” said one of the giggling girls. “You look so much like Farley Granger. Are you?” /v&mw AZ>m£R flfcout w/hat to use for INTIMATE FEMININE Then Learn the Advantages of This Greaseless Suppository. Assures Continuous Medication for Hours!
