Hollywood Whispers
THE Helen Hayes first night audience had the delicious treat of seeing Norma Shearer and Burgess Meredith, her escort, climb over a row of seats. Having gotten in the wrong row they decided that was the best way out. Second in interest to Norma's climbing act was Greer Garson's perfectly beautiful red hair which had the entire audience ohing and ahing. Miss Garson has made so few Hollywood appearances that she is quite a novelty — and that hair of hers, natural as day and night, is really something to write home about. She wears it in a long bob.
