ALFRED A. COHEN, Business Manager. Sworn to and subscribed before me this 3rd dav of October, 1931. NATHAN REIGROD, N. Y. Co. Clk's No. 55, Reg. No. 3R65. Commission expires March 30, 1933. (SEAL.) Rod La Rocque, who is semi-retired from the films, is certainly not among the idle rich. Rod builds telescopes and cameras. Just at present he is building a telescope for Conrad Nagel's little girl. He himself gazes at the heavens and hobnobs with Millikan and other great scientists. Ever since Warner Baxter played the lovable "Daddy Long Legs" he has been besieged with letters from orphans asking for help. It's impossible for him to help all — but they make him very sympathetic when he knows of their troubles. Janet Gaynor is playing the sympathetic sister role to a young South American actor who is playing in "Delicious." When she found him having difficulty in a scene or two, she took him under her wing. He was quite timid and having trouble with the English language. So young Janet is aiding him with his English and bolstering up his morale. She may be little in body but her heart is larger than normal. . Lola Lane, lovely actress, has just recently voluntarily declared herself in bankruptcy. Lola says she did this in order to protect her husband, . Lew Ayres. These debts were all contracted before she married Lew and she doesn't feel he should be responsible. Marion Davies says Europe is on the rage for Robin Hood hats and not Empress Eugenie. So she brought home a good number of them from Paris. Some people crave the great open, silent spaces. Then again — -the R. K. O. sound department is very proud of the fact that it can produce on a moment's notice some 2,304 different noises; A crying baby, or a snoring father— it's all the same to them — just another noise. Vivienne Osborne plays opposite Clive Brook in "Husband's Holiday." There's a little drop of Scotty in the picture, too! On the New York set, where Claudette Colbert and Gary Cooper filmed "His Woman," the following extras were found : An old British sailor who spent his life on the seven seas. A former wrestling champion. An ex-leading man ; a victim of temperament. Motto : When in doubt become a movie extra. On the same occasion Buddy Rogers smoked incessantly. Mrs. Dick Barthelmess is proving a highly popular social asset in Hollywood. She usually wears black in the evening, which sets off her handsome diamond bracelets and brooch most exquisitely. Eric von Stroheim, who still wears his head shaved in the German military manner, attends dances quite often, but rarely dances. They've named a fancy salad after Anita Page, with lots of whipped cream in it — and Anita has to count her calories ! Awful not to be able to eat a stylish salad of one's own name. Anita craved sympathy from Polly Moran over lunch. Polly said she wished they'd name some chop suey after her, since her professional emoting just thrives on chop suey. On the other hand Greta Garbo adores American cheese. She has generous portions sent out to her dressing room with a cup of black coffee every afternoon, together with some black caviar. Maybe that's a magic diet that some other actresses we could name should try ! Joan Crawford often takes her own salad dressing to the studio, because her diet calls for mineral oil instead of vegetable. Joan adores French salad dressing, though, and gets a double order when she feels reckless. Charles Bickford is particularly partial to cold corn beef. Marion Davies never eats at the commissary, but has her meals cooked in her private bungalow. Ramon Novarro eats the 75c lunch. One of the sights of Hollywood is Buster Keaton solemnly motoring down the boulevard in his sporty Austin roadster with his huge St. Bernard dog, Elmer, gravely perched upon the seat beside him. There's hardly room for Buster, once Elmer settles himself comfortably. Elmer probably goes along to make an uproar if some careless street sweeper starts brushing the Austin down a drain. Elmer had a rude shock the other day. The studio wanted to get a gag picture of Elmer and little Buster, the canine hero of so many barkies. Elmer was willing to oblige, but not so the sophisticated Buster, who gave Elmer one patronizing look and turned away. No, sir, no highly paid actor could be expected to divide a close-up with a mere extra. All the same, Buster (the dog) completely ruined a melting love scene in which he was engaged on the set recently. As his film beloved was about to fall into his waiting arms, he spied his own personal lady-love, Friday, trotting along on a distant part of the set. He left his leading lady flat and dashed over with a couple of barks to Friday, and it took twelve directors to coax him back. What's acting, anyway, when one is a serious family man? You see, Buster and Friday recently became the proud parents of five future barkie stars. Gloria Swanson uses no electric lights in her dining room, only scores and scores of candles in silver candlesticks — just as they did before even oil-lamps were invented. The effect is very soft and becoming to pretty well any complexion. One almost can't use too much rouge in a light like that.
