By HARRISON CARROLL Copi/rioAt, IMJ. King Feature! Syndicate, Inc. HOLLYWOOD—HoIIywood awards the palm for frankness to Jean M-ur. The Warner Brothers* star went partying the other night to Jean Crawford's house, where Franehot Tone, Joan Bennett, Gene Markey, Adrian, the fashion designer. Dorothy Parker, and other celebrities were among the guests. Jean was placed next to Adrian at

dinner, and the I style expert—tor whose approval I famous stars vie —began to compliment her on the color scheme of her costume. Jean, who b1 u s hes easily, may have done so then, but she came out bravely. "It really isn't my gown. I

borrowed it from a friend of my mother’s". And calmly went on to tell the swank company that her one good evening gown (this one saves her money) had had an accident at the cleaners. “I wanted to come to this party ■very badly." said Jean. "My mother happened to think of a friend of tiers who is my size, so I borrowed her gown and came.” In case some late-passer happened to see Bill Powell climbing all over the grilled gate of his new home the ■other midnight, he wasn't playing a Tarzan game. Bill has one of those radio rays on his car that open the gate as he drives up. But through some minor misadjustment, the gadget wouldn't work. Bill spent 30 minutes looking for the emergency button on the gate. j If it's Important, Charles Richman, ■veteran stage actor now appearing in ■Paramount's “The Glass Key” claims to be the first man to put buttons on a tuxedo coat. It was back in 1902 when Richman was casting ■about for something distinctive to wear at the premiere of “The Wilderness”, in which he played a leading role. He and his tailor thought up the idea of buttons for the tuxedo, which, in those days, was cut, like a smoking jacket, without them. The style has come down to this day. The current enthusiasm over Dixie Lee (Warner Brothers and several other studios have been testing ner

HOLLYWOOD TICKER-TAPE— All those rumors about Paramount ordering Josef von Sternberg to make retakes on "The Devil Is a Woman" were false from the outset. Cause why? Cause von Sternberg is supreme authority on his pictures and makes retakes only when ha wants to. Even D. W. Griffith in his prime, scarcely had such a contract. . . . That was

LONDON GIGOLOS IN BREAD LINE London —(UP) —London'* glgoi ks are on the bread-line. Shunned by llte-ir friends, banned by toe high-tone hotel management* they are forsaken by the rich women who kept them in the lap of luxury. A tour of London's white-light district on any night will fail to reveal a single gigolo—and they are not hard to recognize. Immaculately dressed, wearing expensive Jewelry, good-k >oking, usually in a dissipated sort of way, they used to be seen by the hundreds in the swank resorts. With an almost regulation expression of the deepest boredom, hlieir job was to dance with and pay attention to women reputed to have money. , Three factors have led to the gigolos' downuill: First is the scarcity of rich ,patroiis; second, the undeniable fact that the woman of .means and leisure who 'patronized them has discovered her normal self respect; | and third, and most important, its the existence of the cbince instruc-, tons’ union. Dance instructors today cannot find employment at the beet hotels.. or the fashionable night clubs, unless they hold the diploma of the. Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing, or of the National Association of Teachers of Dancing. Gigolos who prey on rich and susceptible women, generally speaking, have little or no knowledge of the , technique of dancing. o Dynamite—see Julius Haugk-_

Once, only the Governor had a retinue of two men. Governor James M. Curley still has his two guards, but the flair has spread so that now Lieutenant Governor Joseph L.

PARENTS WIN DYING CHILD — Buffalo N. Y i UP)- The ent* of Norman Pirk. 14, have won; 'a temporary victory to retain iu.I tody of their son. who according to (physicians is dying slowly of an | incurable disease.

The Children's Aid Society opposed the motion that the youth be permitte dto stay with his parents, applying for n emrt order, committing the youth to a -state Institution, where, the society claimed he could lie given care and comfort during the mmaining years of his life, not available with hi* parents.
