Silver Screen (Feb-Oct 1935)

and milk at one serving. Finally, they wandered by chance into a cafeteria. While they were standing to one side wondering how they might get some service, a young Hungarian counter-man overheard their conversation and explained the procedure to them. They never went near a restaurant or cafe again but ate all of their meals in a cafeteria where they could see what they were getting. From the first, they enjoyed American foods. Paul, especially, went native on the question of eating. Today, he enjoys and has only American dishes served in his home, unless he is entertaining friends from Hungary. At which time, they are served native Hungarian foods. Daisy told me however, that Hungarian dishes are not at all as Americans think they are. For instance, Hungarian goulash is not the dish we serve under this name but is merely an excellent soup. When they first came to America, Paul was signed at a modest salary to appear in Paramount Productions. They came west a few weeks after they landed in New York, and took an apartment in Hollywood not far from the studio. It was a comfortable but unpretentious one and Daisy attempted to do light housekeeping in order to make ends meet. They felt that success was just around the corner, but they wanted to purchase a new car and they did not want to run into debt. Their first economy measure was their decision to do without a maid. Daisy learned how to scramble eggs successfully. It was the beginning of her many cooking adventures. During their first month of marriage, they lived almost entirely upon melba toast and scrambled eggs. Finally, they both reached the point where they could not look another egg in the face, but happily, Paul's first picture found favor with his studio bosses and so the newlyweds decided to hire a cook. Although she cannot cook very successfully herself, Daisy has the happy faculty of knowing how it should be done, and she is therefore able to keep her kitchen and household running smoothly. She has one of the most beautiful sets of crystal glassware in all Hollywood. Her father owned a crystal factory and the Lukas home is filled with real museum pieces of crystal, and her table appointments beggar description. Paul likes nothing better than sword fish, halibut and salmon steaks. In fact, he frequently flies to San Francisco in order to have lunch at the Fisherman's Wharf Cafe, which specializes in sea foods. Paul says it is the only place that serves abalone steak and swordfish exactly as he prefers it. He flies up in time for lunch and returns home the same afternoon. Which makes some kind of a record or other. I can't think of any other man who flies eight hundred miles merely to please his palate. Paul is a real aviation enthusiast but Daisy isn't. She prefers a good motor car to a plane. However, this difference in hobbies doesn't interfere with their fondness for each other or any of their vacation plans. He is a licensed pilot and he owns his own plane. He was an aviator during the World War, having enlisted in an Hungarian aviation corps at the beginning of the conflict. He insists that his war activities were very ordinary. That he did only what was required of him and never went on any lone bombing excursions or accomplished any spectacular deeds of heroism. Which, as he naively points out, may be the reason why he is alive to talk about it now. For breakfast, Paul has grapefruit, 01 orange juice, toast, cereal and coffee. He likes Greek honey with muffins occasionally [Continued on page 13] <otVi LcWv add ALLURE to a CLOSE-UP"? Don't risk OILY, straggly locks, or DRY, dull hair.
