By HARRISON CABROLL Copyright, 1838, King Feature, Syndh-ute, Inc. HOLLYWOOD — Twenty-four hours after seeing “Camille", 1 am still under the spell of Garbo's magnificent performance. As Mar-

guerite Gautier, the Swedish actress reaches the peak of ner career, and makes all the other glamor stars of Hollywood seem pale wraiths by comparison. Here is a| story told many | times on stage and screen, but the Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer ver-

i J Lgra I I.L&A A: 1 I Greta Garbo

sion, directed by George Cukor, is immeasurably the finest that I have seen. It is well nigh perfect in every department. As if inspired by Miss Garbo’s performance, the rest of the cast rise to new heights of acting. Robert Taylor’s Armand is his first serious contribution to the screen. Lenore Ulric, as the vulgar, malicious Olympe, gives a portrayal that should send Hollywood producers crowding to her I door. Laura Hope Crews, Rex ! O'Malley, Henry Daniell rate , cheers. So do Zoe Akins, Frances Marion and James Hilton for their adaptation. If Greta Garbo in "Camille” Is not Hollywood's greatest dramatic actress in her greatest role, then I have been bewitched. To descend from the sublime to the ridiculous, there is the woman in Seattle who has written to Clark Gable offering to cut off her long hair so he can use it for a beard in “Parnell”. Mr. Gable, who appreciates the , Intent, is replying that Hollywood whiskers are synthetic, not real hair. You Asked Me and I’m Telling You! Joseph Creelman, New York City: Ginger Rogers’ hair is now virtually back to its natural red and will remain that way at least until she finishes her new co-star-ring picture with Astaire, “Stepping Toes”. She went brownettt for "Mother Carey's Chickens”, then the film was postponed.

POPE PIOS | IS BETTER Catholic Head Will Broadcast Christmas Eve Message Vatican City, Dec. 23. — (U.R) Pope Pius passed a fairly good night, a Vatican spokesman said today. An unofficial source added that the pope's sleep was somewhat disturbed by heavy pains in his left leg, due to a slight increase in the swelling of varioose veins. The pope has interested himself in technical arrangements for his Christmas eve message to the world, to be broadcast from his bedroom at 12:30 p. m. (5:30 a. m. CST) tomorrow on a wave length of 19.84 metres. If he is able, the pope will broadcast from a wheel chair. Otherwise he is to deliver his message from his bed. Dr. Aminta Miluni will decide at the last moment. Prof. Milan! told friends that the pope was completely out of danger and he hoped it would prove only a question of time before he was well again. It was hoped that the pope could be persuaded henceforth, even when he is well, to receive all visitors in his third floor apartment instead of taxing his strength by going up and down stairs. The pope was reported to have completed dictation of his Christmas eve message. It was said that he would review world conditions, enumerate principles that must be applied to have humanity, and appeal to the world, all classes, and races now alienated for peace and understanding. o Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
