Resurrection is her favorite picture She says she was so scared when she did her very first film. It was Joanna. But as soon as she was .seen in it she was recognized as a great bet. Fox put her in Gateway of the Moon. She knew so little about make-up and technique then that this picture was a disappointment to her. Later she made What Price Glory? which put her over But Gateway was held off for release after the public had been knocked cold by the Charmaine of the war epic Will you please tell your readers," says del Rio, "that Gateway of the Moon was one ot my first pictures— almost a try-out, m a way.' I didn't know much about screen acting then 1 should hate to be judged by my work in it. Charmaine was my great break. I'm grateful to Raoul Walsh for giving it to me. The directors tell me I have two faces!" she laughed. "Not two-faced! But one side is .spiritual, and the other isCharmaine! Mr. Walsh saw the Charmaine. Mr Carewe, as in Ramona, sees the spiritual. And I love my Screenland cover because it has that spiritual quality about She'll probably never speak to me again but I can't resist telling you that, after the final sitting, when our cover artist, Miss Georgia Warren, showed her the cover portrait, she said: "Oh, I like it so much! But there is just one little change if you will be so kind? Please put in the little mole above my mouth!" And if you look sharp, you'll see it. no. not ring; but the Hollywood equivalent —engraved anklet. Nick went over some time ago with the Chasing Through Europe company, of which Sue was chosen to be the heroine. Who says movie companies are mere machines? There's a magic romantic touch about this somewhere. These kids will see Paris and Venice and Vienna together, in the springtime of their lives and while they're in love. It ought to be a swell picture. Sue likes Beau Broadway best of anything she's made. The Air Circus, a Fox special is her next — with Movietone. Now 111 spill a little secret. Sue, like Marion Davies, nas a cute little lisp. Hardly enough to notice, but still a lisp. It adds to her charm. But she is ashamed of it. And of course she is scared to death about the way her speaking scenes are going to come across to you. But she needn't worry. The world is her oyster, and has been handing her pearls ever since she was a baby. And she deserves a great, big string. Maestro, strike up a little carol for Sue Sweet Sue!

But there is nothing made up about Sue Carol. She s a wonderful kid She's so young and fresh, and just the kind of girl who makes big, strong men talk baby talk, and hard-boiled newspaper women believe in Santa Claus again She is apparently quite unconscious ot the havoc she causes. She doesn t know she s a wow. In fact, when told she is a hit in pictures, she blushes rosily and shakes her head: "I don't know if 111 ever do much on the screen," she sighs. She is the Age of Innocence in short skirts and a wind-blown bob. You can tell to talk to Sue a minute that she comes from a nice family and went to a smart school and is a nice girl She wears a necklace ol small real pearls with a diamond clasp wears black when travelling, and hates to be conspicuous. I saw her off on the Leviathan, along with a small mob of other admirers. Anybody who ever saw Sue, either on or off the screen, is immediately added to her list of fans. She was supposed to go right on board and pose on the rail with her feet crossed, for the news photographers She wouldn't go. She preferred to stay with her friends on the pier until the very last moment. Then she rushed up the gangplank, and the last I saw of her was a rather tremulous little face, and a flutter* ing handkerchief, and the very least suspicion of tears. But I noticed that a nice old lady passenger had adopted her already. She's the sort of girl who is always being petted and patted and "There there d. It was her first trip anywhere alone—her maid couldn't quite take the place of her mother, who was kept at home by a slight but sufficient motor accident. Over in Cherbourg a certain young man will be waiting. You may have heard about him— Nick Stuart. Sue is wearing his— Joe E. Brown came back to Broadway just long enough to say hello. He had to go right back and work in more pictures. Broadway always has liked Joe. He is one of the good boys of the big street. A comedy clown who is also a highly respected citizen. His success has never spoiled him. He has had the same wife and the same children for some years. And now that he has made a hit in pictures, Broadway is prouder of him than ever. "I used to be with a circus," said Joe when I saw him during his brief visit "I was one of the Five Marvelous Asthons when I was a kid of fifteen. I learned my acrobatic stuff then. We kids didn t get much money— sometimes we were lucky it we got a nickle apiece from the boss tor our dinner. But it was good training. He is one of the greatest acrobats on the American stage — and screen There are only a select few, such as Fred Stone and Buster Keaton, who can touch him as a tumbler. If you saw him in The Hit o] the Show you probably want to know it he jumped over chairs and swung from the chandeliers. No. And he doesn't look like the Joe Brown of the movies much. He is young, and dapper, and well-dressed. His wife is pretty and has a sense of humor too Joe had to leave to call on Joseph P Kennedy and Mrs. Brown said her husband had made a hit with the oldest Kennedy son by writing in his autograph book: "To Joe Junior from Joe Senior. Mr. Brown's latest is with Bebe Daniels in Td*« Me Home— which Bebe, he says, considers her best comedy since Senorita. The Browns are nice folks. Speaking of Bebe— she went right up in the air after she finished Ta\e Me Home. Yep— hopped a plane and came to New York for a vacation at the country place ot the Tommy Meighans at Great Neck, on Long Island Sound. Bebe only came into New York once, and then just to pay a friendly call at the home office in the Paramount Building at the 'cross-roads ot the world': Broadway and 44th Street, bhe wanted a rest, and her sojourn with Tommy and Frances Meighan provided it. She slept and went swimming, and said she had never felt so fit. Such is Bebe s standing with her bosses that she was told to go
