Ricardo Cortez and director Archie Mayo tossed him about like a rubber ball, and believe us— he could take it. Georgie Raft dressed as Steve Brodie, broke out with his famous Charleston, which he used to do in Jimmy Durante's night club in New York. Sally Eilers, as a Salvation Army lassie, along with her husband, Harry Jo Brown, and about ten others arrived at the party in an oldfashioned tally-ho drawn by four black horses— and did that give a thrill to Sunset Boulevard! Jean Harlow and her groom, Hal Rosson. made their first party appearance since they were spliced in Yuma, and Jean looked too too cute in a little blue bathing suit of the Gay Nineties vintage, with panties and everything. It was interesting to note that when hubby Hal said, and right when the fun was at its height too, "Let's go home," Jean went without a single demur. About the most original costumes of the evening were worn by Constance Cummings and her author-husband, Benn Levy, who drew up to the Vendome on a bicycle-builtfor-two. The Levys were all dolled up as a couple of burlesque queens, with wigs and bosoms and thighs padded beyond recognition. You could hardly tell them apart— we mean the Levys. Lil Tashman came as Lily Langtry and was a beautiful dream in about ten pink ostrich plumes and a pink gown that billowed and billowed and billowed. Jeanette MacDonald was another vision as Lillian Russell and led the Grand March (a nice old time-honored custom that came into its own again that night) with host Zanuck, who covered his tattooing with a satin cape so as not to cause offense to the beauteous Russell. Miriam Hopkins was cute as a Jackie Cooper newsboy, and George Bancroft made a swell bum with a red beak. Another bum with a black eye was Russ Colombo, who was celebrating the success of his first preview the night before, "Broadway Thru a Keyhole." One of the high spots of the party was when Kay Francis decided she was quite weary of dragging a train and a bustle, so she removed her dress and spent the rest of the evening in white shorts. The effect was quite bizarre as she failed to remove her big black be-plumed hat. Another high spot was when it was discovered that two real tramps, who were just passing through the city on their way to no place, dropped in uninvited to enjoy the festivities. Their tramping clothes looked so much like the old bowery, that the two bums entered without any questions being asked, and had a wonderful time with the beer and free lunch until somebody got suspicious. Janet Gaynor, who wasn't invited to the party, kiddingly informed Mr. Zanuck that she and the Irish were raiding the place— but the Irish evidently found something better to do that night, for the raid didn't come off. It was after this party, and after he had taken the Countess di Frasso home, that Lyle Talbot ran his car off a precipice and almost killed himself. Outside of that it was a gay night for everyone— including the two bums. The Marx Brothers celebrated the preview of "Duck Soup" and a new picture agreement with Paramount by attending en masse the opening of the Dunes in Palm Springs. Many other stars spent a merry week-end there— including the Charlie Butterworths, the Harry Jo Browns (Sally Eilers), the Ben Lyons (Bebe Daniels) and the Dick Arlens. Neither Charlie Butterworth nor Groucho Marx managed to tear themselves away in time to attend the Screen Actors Guild meeting held in Hollywood on that Sunday night. Charlie wired Eddie Cantor, president of the Guild, CLAIMS are easy to make until they have to be proved. That's why scientists spent last winter in making one of the largest experiments of its kind ever conducted. They wanted proof of what Pepsodent Antiseptic was worth in fighting colds. Five hundred people were divided into several groups. Some fought colds by gargling with plain salt and water — some with other leading mouth antiseptics — one group used only Pepsodent. Those who used Pepsodent had 50% fewer colds than any other group. What's more, those using Pepsodent Antiseptic, who did catch cold, got rid of their colds in half the time. What convincing evidence — what remarkable testimony. Here is a clear-cut example of the protection Pepsodent Antiseptic gives you. Know this about antiseptics Take note! When mixed with water many leading mouth antiseptics cannot kill germs. Pepsodent Antiseptic can and does kill germs in 10 seconds— even when it is mixed with 2 parts of water. That's why Pepsodent goes 3 times as far — gives you 3 times as much for your money — makes $1 do the work of $3. Don't gamble with ineffective antiseptics. Be safe. Use Pepsodent Antiseptic — Safeguard health— and save ^ your hard earned money. /k]01Z£\ PEPSODENT ANTISEPTIC
