By HARRISON CARROLL. Copyright. !•’!. Premier Syndicate. Inc. HOLLYWOOD, June CO.—All artists who come out here make , some comment about Hollywood beauties — and

Eddie Cantor.

' Willy Pogany is no exception. 1 ! Less bold than ■om e, the I painter - sculp- | tor • architect mentions no ' names. He is content with picking the ideal Hollywood I type. Miss Cinema of 1931, says Pogany, follows this description:

She is a bleached blonde. She has blue eyes. She is 5 feet, 3 inches tall, without heels. She weighs 112 pounds (probably without meals). The artist arrives at these statistics from a study of the 50 girls selected for Eddie Cantor’s “Palmy Days.” Mr. Pogany, incidentally, made the sketches for the sets of this production. The larger task of selecting the ideal Hollywood beauty he did in his spare time. It all falls under the head of art, anyway. If we can believe the distinguished expert, this year’s nu>del beauty is leaning towards the proportions of Venus De Milo. She has a wider waist, less noticeable hips, a straighter back and broader shoulders than the girls Mr. Pogany observed when he was in Hollywood four years ago for Samuel Goidwyn. Athletics, he suggests, may be responsible. But that’s another story. FAIR WARNING. A candidate for the annual prize for honest advertising is the Hollywood cleaner who has on his window-card: ‘‘Women’s Silk Dresses “Cleaned and Finished, $1.25.” LATEST GOSSIP. In these hard times, it may be news that an actor turned down Universal’s offer to play Buffalo Bill because he refused to wear a > goatee . . . rumors are pesky I things. After all the talk. Colleen I Moore insists she is not going to i be married for a long time. By ! the way, she’s rented her big PETERSON NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Heller spent Friday evening with Mr. and Mrs. Frank Spade. Mr. and Mrs. John Bright and 1 daughter Jean of Decatur .called on I Mr. and Mrs. George Bright Sunday ; evening. Mrs. Jesse Byerly spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. William Bryan. Mrs. Glen Straub and family of Decatur caled on Mr. and Mrs. Al Itraub Sunday evening.
