Y. Cocktails of Chatter When a Pin Drop in Hollywood, a Curious World Wonders What's Coming Loose. CONNIE CUMMINGS has a confession to make— and it's most amusing. Connie, as you recall, crashed the front pages in all the English newspapers because she was the first movie star to arrive in England from Hollywood in a quiet tweed suit, instead of -being swathed in furs. One of the reasons her English playwright husband, Benn Levy, fell in love with her was this unaffected simplicity. There was much to-do about it in England, and Connie and her inexpensive little tweed suit became quite the rage of the town. But now Connie breaks down and confesses that when she arrived in England for her picture contract, the tweed suit was her one and only suit, and she most probably would have worn furs if she had owned any furs. Well, we won't tell the English. ° — *<§><>— * TEANETTE MacDONALD receives quite " a lot of foreign fan mail, and for several years has been tearing off the pretty stamps without any idea of what she'd do with them. The other day she had the bright inspiration to make a lamp shade of them.

Sylvia Sidney is on a strict strained soup reducing diet, but when she was making "Good Dame" she had to spend an entire day eating chop suey. And Claudette Colbert had to eat doughnuts dunked in cold coffee for hours while the director shot that riotous dunking scene in "It Happened One Night"— and Claudette hates doughnuts. But the worst was when Miriam Hopkins, fresh from a siege of flu and doctors, had to eat dozens of hot dogs for a scene in "Design for Living." She'll never be able to face another hot dog. ALICE WHITE rushed down to the post-olfice when notice of a registered letter came to her home. "I always like to think that I have been unexpectedly left a million dollars," she said. Imagine her surprise when the letter turned out to be a deed for a cemetery lot which relatives in the East had sent her for safekeeping. " — — « THRIVING away from the Paramount 'studio with only one headlight burning the other evening, Carole Lombard passed a pedestrian who motioned and called out, "Light!" over the roar of her motor. Carole waved back and said, "Goodnight to you," and sped on. WHEN asked whether or not Mrs. Mundin had ever been "in the business" on the stage or screen, Herbert Mundin, that swell English comedian on the Fox lot, replied, "She sang a song in 'Cavalcade.' " "Is that all?" the interviewer asked. "Yes," said Mundin. "Well, that doesn't matter, that doesn't make her a professional," was the reply. "You'd better not let her hear you say that," Mundin warned the interviewer. a !.•♦••! a 1ILIAN HARVEY collects monogrammed * handkerchiefs from her friends, as remembrances.

C. Fields is a sort of ritual. Each day his chauffeur brings him a menu from the Paramount commissary. Each day Bill sits up in his dressing room with his feet on the table and reads it carefully from cover to cover. Each day he orders: "Bring me a salad, two bottles of milk and a plate of graham crackers." ALTHOUGH he receives an average of -one hundred unsolicited original songs each month, Bing Crosby never reads any of them— so you ambitious song-writers, just save your postage. And Bing has three perfectly grand reasons why he doesn't read [Continued on page 12] Leslie Howard and his daughter at work on the lawn of their lovely home in England.
