HOLLYWOOD May 7. — Idle
chatter: Bill Gargan and brothers
Ed and Joe seldom pal together be-
cause In association they quarrel
and sometimes wind up in fisti-
cuffs. Like the O’Feamas they like
nothing better than a fight for or
with each other. Despite his Latin-
sopJjtoticate screen roles Cesar Ro-
me^ Is boyish as all getout. And
he pronounces that name Sessar
if you don’t mind. Off-screen
Charles Butterworth is one of the
least funny film colonists. After
every picture Warner Baxter pre-
sents his stand-in with $1000. The
two have been employer-employee
for more than a decade.
Bill Robinson wears a beautiful
diamond tie-pin on all occasions: it
was a gift from Eleanor Powell. Can-
didate for most graceful hands:
CaTOle Lombard. Marion Tallev is
much publicized as owner of a 1600-
acre Kansas ranch but she is death-
ly afraid of horses. Lulse Rainer
gets a kick out of attending chil-
dren’s dramatic plays and often
may be found at primary school
presentations. Joan Crawford and
Rochelle Hudson are Hollywood’s
two most tan-crazed stars. Early
each spring they turn sun-worship-
ers both courting the bronzed-skin
leadership.
Erin O'Brien - Moore concurrent
with her screen work is studying
political economy at the University
of Southern California. A1 Jolson
sun.-bathes in the altogether; when
masculine friends visit he greets
them sans garb. If the guests are
feminine Jolson dons a nondescript
robe and slippers. Frank Mc-
Hugh’s screen specialty is playing
“drunks ’— and to abet his reputa-
tion he has collected an amazing
fund of jokes about inebriated per-
sons.
TTiere is this paradox in the stu-
dio routine of dress extras: Al-
though all hope for the “big chance”
the smart ones keep their faces as
far from cameras as possible. The
reason: Good dress extras are scarce
and they may work in many scenes
of the same picture provided they
do not stand so close to the camera
that they may be recognized. Ex-
tras who dare close-ups are auto-
matically eliminated from subse-
quent sequences. Thus dress ex-
tras struggle between two desires:
TO be “discovered” via closeups; or
to remain undiscovered and secure
more work. Most extras choose the
latter course because their earn-
ings at best are limited and they
need every possible dollar to con-
tinue to be wellrgrcvmed. They
live an endless circle: Earn more
money to dress better to work nwre
often to earn more money. Repeat
Indefinitely.
Glenda Farrell tells me that a
man living in Cleveland writes her

letters in which he insists he is her
father. He reviles her for refusing
to send him money but always
signs off with “I love you anyway.”
Miss Farrell’* real father lives here
in Hollywood and manages her busi-
nesa. Manages it to such an ex-
tent that Glenda has to go to him
for any expenditure greater than
five dollars.
This matter of people claiming
relationship to stars is not unusual.
Back in Massachusetts there was
a telephone official who boasted
freely that he was Thelma Todd's
brother. None doubted his word;
his apparent intelligence and busi-
ness position seemed to authenti-
cate his claim. One day a Holly-
wood visitor met Miss Todd and
mentioned knowing her brother on
the Atlantic Coast. It then came
out that Thelma had no brother.
Through investigation the truth
was revealed; the Eastern gentle-
man has been so intrigued by
Thelma’s screen personality that he
decided she would make a fine sis-
ter. He commenced telling people
she was and he reached the point
where he had almost convinced
himself.
The hoatzin a remarkable bird
found in tropical America has a
pair of claws on its wings.
Nine thousand five hundred for-
eigners were granted permission to
take Jobs in England in 1934.
In 1931 there was one automo-
bile to every 56 persons in the
world.
A horse cannot gallop with all
four feet off the ground except
when flexed beneath the body.
