Has the realthing come YOUR WAY? «r 16 When it happens, you'll know it at once. The feeling is fabulous. Like the streets are paved with diamonds and they all belong to you. Suddenly all the love songs seem to make sense. A walk in the rain is a trip to Spain, when the real thing comes along! And all your dreams of foreign labels and racing stables, of furs and jewels and swimming pools — you trade them all, for one million-dollar moment filled with love. You're fortune's darling, you're 'Queen of Diamonds', you own the world — when the real thing comes your way! Wouldn't you know that only Revlon could create a color to match this million-dollar mood? It's here and it's heaven — a haunting, restless flame that fairly crackles with excitement! Wear 'Queen of Diamonds' now, tonight. And all at once the world is yours! Anything could happen — (and why not let it, just this once?) Have you tried Revlon's new lip-softening 'Lanolite' Lipstick? It's almost too good to be true — you'll agree, first time you wear it! Here's the real thing, at last, in a non-smear-type lipstick — it actually softens dry lips — because it's blended with Revlon's own precious ingredient, 'Lanolite', 3-ways better than lanolin itself! Who'd dream a lipstick could look so luscious, feel so good, and last so long! For matching fingertips . . .

This was history repeating itself, for thirteen years ago, when Alice — this time in real life — married William Tuttle, TV producer-packager, the music was also by Dick Liebert. . . . Beginning her career at the age of four as a singer in her home town of Minneapolis. Alice was ten when she had advanced to such character roles as the witch in "Hansel and Gretel." Encouraged by her father, a Swedish Lutheran minister, she went from student dramatics and stock companies to important roles in such hits as "Green Grew the Lilacs," "The Great Lover," "As Husbands Go," and "It's a Wise Child." On radio she was a regular on the Stoopnagle And Bud Show, Camel Caravan, played the late Robert Benchley's wife on his air show, starred in Big Sister and was the Mrs. half of Mr. And Mrs. North for more than ten years. Currently, she's Marcia on The Second Mrs. Burton, Trina on Mama and appears frequently on The FBI In Peace And War, Aunt Jennie and Robert Montgomery Presents. As Mrs. William Tuttle, she lives in a Manhattan apartment, is taking a special course termed the "Comprehensive Review of Acting," and loves the theater, jigsaw puzzles, backgammon and collecting memorabilia on "Alice in Wonderland."

Tall In The Saddle Dear Editor: Would you tell us something about Brad Johnson, who portrays Lofty Craig on the Du Mont TV Network show, Annie Oakley? Where can I write to him? V.P., Los Angeles, Calif. Brad Johnson, who portrays the deputy sheriff and silent suitor of Annie Oakley, is every inch — six feet, four inches, to be exact — the picture of a Western lawman. Brad was born July 23, 1923, on a peach farm near Marysville, California, and on graduation from the eighth grade, he received his diploma from the hands of his own mother, who presided over the local one-room schoolhouse. He decided on an acting career while in high school at Sacramento and, after his discharge from the Air Force, he enrolled at the University of Southern California in the drama department then headed by William DeMille. Gail Davis-Brad Johnson Brad was the second student in eight years at USC that William DeMille presented with a letter of introduction to his famous brother, Producer Cecil B. The letter resulted in the role of the reporter in "The Greatest Show on Earth," and this was followed by bit parts in other films and a great deal of little theater work. Brad appeared on TV in the Range Rider series and was spotted and signed by Gene Autry, whose company films the Annie Oakley series. Fond of all sports, Brad boxed and fenced at college, rides daily and goes hunting or fishing when he can find the time. He is married to Amanda Webb, who had been in his USC drama classes. They were co-starring in a stock company at Lake Tahoe in 1950 when they decided it was the perfect time and place for a honeymoon. They now have a two-year-old son, Sander.
