p " I cracked up the same plane IO times l" says GINGER ROGERS, starring THE GROOM WORE SPURS a Fidelity Picture • Released by UNIVERSAL INTERNATIONAL "We retook the plane crash for ‘The Groom Wore Spurs’ ten times. The director made me twist and turn the wheel ’til my hands were stinging red! And roping ‘the villain’ was tough on my hands again . . . But I smoothed them with soothing Jergens Lotion . . . It kept them soft and lovely for romantic closeups!” Being a liquid, Jergens is absorbed by thirsty skin. Prove it with this simple You'll see why Jergens test described above . . . Lotion is my beauty secret. CAN YOUR LOTION OR CREAM PASS To soften, a should be layers of skin. Water won’t "bead'on hand smoothed with Jergens Lotion. It contains quickly-absorbed ingredients that doctors recommend, heavy oils that the skin with oily film More women use Jergens Lotion than any other hand care in the world STILL lOc TO $1.00 (PLUS TAX) Look Alikes: I’ve been wondering why no one has noticed the striking resemblance between Susan Hayward and Piper Laurie. They would make a wonderful “sister” team or perhaps “mother and daughter.” Mrs. Kathleen Johnson Shawnee, Okla. Susan Hayward Piper Laurie ( Here they are — judge for yourself.) Cheers and Jeers: I don’t see why all the girls are drooling over Farley Granger when there’s someone like Rock Hudson around. Patsy Artin Drexel Hill, Pa. While reading Photoplay’s story on Marlon Brando (Dec.) I discovered it said he was going to take diction lessons. Please, Mr. Brando, don’t. I saw “The Men” twice and the thing I enjoyed most was Marlon Brando’s “ordinary” diction. He sounded just like any person you’d meet or know — not like these Hollywood stars with their “perfect” speech. Barbara Ocilak Clifton, N. J. Please tell me why so many Western films are being made. When we get fed up with them on Television and do head for a “good” movie, we find a couple more, so we just go home. We can watch them at home and be comfortable. Sally Riley Lynwood, Cal. “Comanche Territory” certainly didn’t do justice to its stars. Hollywood should be more careful about its mistakes. Anyone with an ounce of horse sense doesn’t muddy up a creek by riding through it, then turn around to let his horse drink. Betty Johnson Houston, Tex. We have just seen “Let’s Dance.” The lead role would have been a natural for Gene Kelly. Astaire doesn't possess the ability or sincerity to portray the role. As a “lover,” he is a “ham.” Donna and Fritz Sioux City, Iowa I just got back from seeing “All About Eve” and I thought it was horrible. All they did was argue back and forth.
