By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 1985, King I’eaturet Syndicate, Ine. HOLLYWOOD — Filmland gossips can sit back with a sigh of relief. They know how Luise Painer spends at least part of her time. The little Viennese, who shuns the late spots and moves In a close circle of friends,

i 1 4 ® *■. JC. jnH I Luise Rainer

| is toiling over a ballet that is to last three hours. It is called 'The I.ife of Man" and Luise Intends to appear In it herself. Playing a masculine role. She will impersonate the central charactein three phases —as a young boy, as an adult and as an old

man. Ballet routines and the scenario will be devised by the actress. The score will be borrowed from the classic and from popular music.

They refused to be put out, j so Clark finally had to attend a reception unshaven. One of the country's most famous gamblers Is in Hollywood and minus a bankroll. In his time he has won fortunes on the turn of a card or a roll of the dice. He once picket! up *60,000 in a fan tan game with a Hollywood producer in New York. A few years ago, he turned down plenty for an okay on his life story. Rumor is a certain Hollywood studio will put him on the payroll any minute. The idea being to get his story on the screen at last. You Asked Me and I’m Telling You! Mrs. Frank Simms, Montreal: Sorry, ; but we never give out Hollywood diet fads.
