TIPS FOR TRAVELERS 1 . Taking more than one suitcase? Pack one with things you need immediately, and most often. 2. Choose lightweight luggage. You'll be glad you did when porters are nowhere to be seen. 3. Pack away some wash-and-wears . . . shorts and shirts and sunbacks that drip dry overnight. 4.

Kim Novak should be Mrs. Lt. Gen. Trujillo by the time you read this — unless his divorce took too long and the unpredictable Kim found herself another wealthy beau. Why is it that poor men don't seem to fall in love with her . . . Julie London is having the last laugh on ex-spouse Jack Webb, who put her through the emotional wringer at the time of their break-up. Julie, well-known in Australia for the past two years because of her record hits, giggles that Mr. Webb is now being billed down under as "the ex-husband of your favorite, Julie London," to help put over Australia's newly-acquired "Dragnet" series. . . . Julie is still collecting $18,000 a year from Sergeant Friday in alimony. Clark Gable returned to Hollywood in one piece, but only just, after his p. a. tour to plug "Teacher's Pet" — his film with Doris Day. It was the King's first selling trip. And it's going to be his last. Too much attention can be too much. . . . THREE who find the party fun are Rock Hudson, Doris Day, hubby Marty Melcher.

I'm waiting to see if he chose wisely in 20-year-old Millie Perkins, the lovely Elizabeth Taylor-ish looking model who took a pay cut to play the tragic Anne Frank. . . . Walter Wanger says he knows nothing of a marital separation with wife Joan Bennett. But is it just a coincidence that Joan's work keeps her more and more in the East, while Walter toils here? Jack Benny isn't stingy, as he wants you to think in his radio and TV shows. But he hates to lose money at the tables in Vegas. His limit, per day, during his four weeks at the Flamingo there recently, $50 — or $1,400 for the four weeks. That's a lot to lose — for you and me. . . .
