Glad to be back! Herbert Marshall, suave Englishman who has made a secure place for himself in American films, returns from a visit to his homeland with his attractive wife, Edna Best.
MONTHLY CHEER AND HISS DEPT.:
A LOVELY close-up to Peggy Shannon. Her fans staged a great campaign to return the red-head to the screen. Perhaps due to their efforts, she is back. To prove her gratitude, Peggy is setting aside a part of her salary toward a fund which will be donated to a charitable institution in the name of her fan club.
A beautiful, soft-focus close-up to Claudette Colbert for her thoughtfulness. When Claudette and her house-guests were about to take a swim, Miss Colbert saw that some birds were enjoying baths in her pool. She insisted that her own swimming party be delayed until the featheryvisitors concluded their plunges and preenings.
A nice close-up to Charles Bickford (who received a long shot here a few months ago), for his generosity. Bickford donated his $10,000 automobile service station to the Assistance League of Hollywood, in order that the profits might be devoted into charitable channels.
AHOLLYWOODIAN who is well acquainted with Jean Harlow telephoned the platiblonde and said: "Jean, a friend from the East is visiting town and I'm showing him the interesting sights. He has seen the Chinese Theatre, the Brown Derby and the Rudolf Valentino statue. May I bring him out to your house, Jean? / want to show him you!"
THE studio publicity director asked Joan Blondell if she would make a personal appearance at a local theatre.
"All you must do," he promised, "is say a few words, and then present a prize — a refrigerator."
"No; I won't do it," said Joan. "I tried to lift one of those things once before."
Jaunty Janet! The little apostle of cinematic sweetness and light has her frisky side as well! Here's the Gaynor in a gay moment.
International Garbo-bound! Laurence Olivier, another of those ingratiating Britishers, and Garbo's new leading man, arrives en route for the Coast with Mrs. Olivier.
SHORTLY after Ed Wynn's arrival in Hollywood for his talkie debut, he was guest of honor at the Los Angeles Breakfast Club. As a part of the proceedings, Wynn was made honorary chief of the city fire department.
"Now that I am fire-chief," squealed (you know how) Wynn, "I want to tell the merchants of Los Angeles to go right ahead with their fires — / promise I unll not interfere."
IN her quiet, undramatic way, Joan Crawford has once again written a humanitarian entry into her book of kind acts.
Not even employees of the studio knew exactly why one member of the girls-chorus, at work in "The Dancing Lady," was suddenly absent. Perhaps those who missed her believed she had been discharged.
The truth is, the absentee was suddenly stricken with an ailing appendix. Joan saw her faint, and it was Joan's car that rushed the girl to a private hospital. Also. Miss Crawford's personal check paid for the operation.
Some day an index of Joan's generosities will be compiled. It will be a voluminous book.
THERE is no news in the Miriam Hopkins-director King Yidor romance, but few people know that he reads and okays her scripts before she consents to do a picture.
Ernst Lubitsch knows, however, so when Miriam received her newest script from the little German director, she found written across the front by his hand : "Dear King : Will you see if you think I should play this part? Miriam."
