We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
aua anu i antics i juung is aim saiiii evening coals were the thing for evening wear at the “Can-Can” premiere when each star tried to outdo the other — coat wise. But
coats or no coats, Marilyn Monroe still prefers the old-fashioned fur piece. Heavily beaded costumes are back, too. Doris Day could scarcely toddle, recently, in her long sheath of beaded white and Janet Leigh was all agleam and aglitter in her long champagne beaded number. Cost? $3,000!!! The up-in-front and long-in-the-back effect frocks of Olivia de Havilland and Mitzi Marilyns still old-fashioned. Gaynor had ’em gasping.
Before leaving for the Air Force, Tommy spent every minute he could with Nancy.
Street Seene: She stood patiently waiting for the green light on Wilshire Boulevard, plainly dressed and apparently weary. Passersby neither noticed nor recognized Rita Hayworth who, only a few years before, had been the glamor girl of the day. The lines of sorrow etched on her lovely face revealed a woman who had lived and loved and lost and yet, her very calmness and serenity, as she stood there, marked a woman who, in losing had gained herself. The old glamor and oomph may have disappeared but instead stood a woman who had become an actress — a truly fine actress coveted by the best directors in the business. Married in turn to a promoter, a genius, a Prince and a crooner, Rita seems happy with producer Jim Hill despite the rumors of discord and separation.

The Young and Old: Tommy Sands and Nancy Sinatra
have chosen one photographer, Sid Avery, to take all their pictures together. Well, Princess Margaret chose a favorite photographer and look what happened to Tony ArmstrongJones, yet!!! Luana Patten’s father, a former designer, designed his daughter’s wedding dress and those of her bridesmaids. From their first date, I thought Luana and TV star John Smith made a lovely couple. . . . Warners announce the Big Build-Up for two of their young players, Troy Donahue and Connie Stevens, who will co-star in “Parrish.” Couldn’t happen to two nicer kids. . . . How fine to hear that Leo McCary, who directed your Gold Medal Award winning picture, “An Affair to Remember” for 1957, is recovering from hepatitis and is out of the hospital.
... I stopped to greet Dinah Shore, enjoying an ice cream soda with her two children at Blum’s, and in the next department ran right into Bobby Darin buying himself some chocolate sweets. “Know something,
Sara?” he grinned. “I’ve decided I want to get married more than any guy you know. I’m sick of being alone. I’m sick of hotel rooms. I want someone to come home to.” Surprised at this confession, yet sympathetically responsive, I emerged on Beverly Drive to discover two teenage girls all agog over Ray Danton striding just ahead. “Look.” said one fan to the other, “that’s Legs Diamond. Remember how scary he was in the movie? I’ll bet he’s after someone right now. Let’s follow.” A few minutes later, Ray came out of Wil Wright’s ice cream parlor calmly licking a double-decker ice cream cone. What a let-down!!!
Memories: It was the first time Bing Crosby had entered the famed Cocoanut Grove in the Ambassador Hotel in thirty years. As one of the famous Rhythm Boys, who rose to fame at the Grove with Tommy Dorsey’s band, Bing had been a young and skittish crooner sowing his semi-wild oats with a carefree hand. Yet, here he sat in this same room, all these many years later, with memories flooding about him. Memories of the stars who once gathered in this room to dine and dance and listen to him sing. Where were they now? Where
f had they gone? Suddenly, with a misty look, Bing turned to those around him and said, “Sorry, it’s ten o’clock and my bedtime,” and rose to his feet and departed.
