Address City State. mous Speakers lost their suit against Ripley; heaven only knows what happened to the breach of promise suit; Julius got his divorce from Ruth, and Ripley and Ruth Goldstein were ordered to pay him $153. Harry Richman was sued once by Flo Stanley, a former Mack Sennett actress. She valued her broken heart at $250,000. Gay Delys, a showgirl, is suing Enric Madriguera for $100,000. claiming he promised to marry her. The orchestra leader said that he was sure that if he ever proposed to a girl he'd remember it. And who should know better than he if he ever breathed the words '"love" or "marry" to Gay Delys? Who is the most sued man along Radio Row? It's a toss-up between Ed Wynn and Rudy Vallee. Recently Ed Wynn boasted that doubtful honor. He said he was one of the most sued presons on the air, having 138 lawsuits against him at the present time. Most of them were probably caused by the collapse of the Amalgamated Broadcasting Company. But Rudy Vallee has a peacherino of a record for lawsuits. He pays $20,000 to $40,000 a year for attorney fees. It's cheaper for him in the long run than hiring attorneys by the case. I'm not talking, either, of all those goofy suits about whether he's to divorce Fay Webb or she's to divorce him, and whether it's to take place in New York, California or the Fiji Islands. I'm talking about the honest-to-goodness lawsuits that have been started against Rudy. Then everyone knows about the feud between Will Osborne and Vallee as to which was the original crooner. Most amusing of all the suits that have ever been slapped against Rudy is one now pending. Do you recall the name Danny Ahearn? The newspapers were full of it a short while ago. Danny is an ex-convict, author of "How to Commit a Murder — And Get Away with It." Since 1919 he has been arrested twelve times — maybe he's gathering material for another book. And it should be good, f It seems a few years ago, when Vallee |: was playing and singing there, Danny (i visited the Villa Vallee. A self-confessed I' big, bad, bold man, he claims Vallee as \i saulted him and kicked him in the pants. I So he's suing. No matter how regular you are, the f chances are that if you're a radio star (♦ you're going to be sued. Take Jimmy* Durante, for instance. He wouldn't han>#» anyone for anything. Still Poet Alfred I Kreymborg sued him a short while ago. I Alfred Kreymborg said he was mortified. |f Jimmy said he was mortified that Kreymborg should say that Jimmy had mortified him. •You see, Jimmy read some of Kreymborg's modernistic poetry over the air. Jimmy recited them as if they were funny. Kreymborg said they weren't funny, were never meant to be funny, and that his | reputation had been damaged. Kreymborg writes verses like this, from the play "Jack's House": "She likes to' make shades, yellow shades for the window, but if you ask her why she likes to make shades for the window she would not tell you why she likes to make shades, yellow shades, for the window, she would not tell you why she likes to make yellow shades for the window, except she likes to." Kreymborg's lawyer said they were "fine poems destroyed by Jimmy Durantc's sense of humor." He thought Jimmy ought to pay Kreymborg $100,000 for reading his serious poems as if they were funny. But the court decided otherwise — against Kreymborg and in favor of Jimmy. You can see from all this that no matter what they say or do, radio stars are likely to be sued. Somebody is always having his feelings hurt or her heart broken, and when that happens they ask for a nice, round sum. Funny, the power that money has to ease a broken heart, isn't it? So what? So they keep suing. Keep Young and Beautifu (Continued from page 65) you pull it through your hands, you can be pretty sure its free of soap. Always use a liquid cleanser — never rub cake soap directly on the hair. There are many excellent shampoos on the market and you can also make your own by shaving a good toilet soap into boiling water and letting it dissolve. I want to mention here a perfect cleanser that normalizes all types and conditions of scalp and hair and glorifies the drabbest. This is a soapless olive oil shampoo that I have been using for the past several months. If you care to know the name of it, drop me a postcard. ^^IL shampoos are beneficial to every type of hair, including bleached. Although it will remove the color from dyed and hennaed hair, it is often recommended between dyeings and hennas. Incidentally, it is a safe and quick method of removing artificial coloring. You will also discover that oil shampoos will make your permanent look more soft and natural. To give the hair sheen and lustre, finish up with a color rinse. This not only brings out the high lights and tones, buti adds that touch of glamor. Dry the hair thoroughly. Then dampen with a wave-setting lotion to set the waves and curls. If you will supplement these shampoos with five or ten minutes of massage and brushing each day, you will soon achieve a crowning glory. As most of you know, brilliantine is not only beneficial to the hair, but adds a gloss and keeps it in place. Pour a bit into the hand and dip the brush into it.j Apply first to the ends of the hair, which of course are dryest, and then brush lightl> over the head. Oily hair is no doubt the hardest to cor-l rect. A teaspoon of baking soda in the last rinse water will help. I also advise a special tonic. Combine this with dailj massage and brushing. 82
