By HARRISON CARROLL , Copyright. 193", liij Festues Syadieste. Ise. HOLLYWOOD, Cal.-Some American girl may have a chance to train under Sonja Henie for the *xt Olympic skating events. The Norwegian beauty, who holds 18world's titles on the frozen rinks ad who is now a star of the movies u well, explained the plan in Hollywood today. "This country has been very hospitable to me," she said. “I intend tobecomtan American citizen and Id like to do my bit by coaching a American girl to become the text ice-skating champion at the Olympics. "I don’t think this is at all impossible." she added, "because there •» no promising skaters in Europe today." Sonja's idea is to interview can“dates on her coming personal apWrance tour. First, she has to i" her new picture, "Lovely to At " and make a brief trip to ® , She returns here in Octot and win begin the tour and »swch at that time. “ she can find the proper girl Jf romises to coach her persons' rom then until the Olympic ”®ts in 1840.

funeral. It was the first time the two brothers had met in 19 years. ! Mrs. Jerome Cowan, wife of the i actor, had a miraculous escape , from death in Catalina. An outrigger canoe in which she was riding on the ocean side of the island 1 overturned and she was hurled Into 1 the water. Members of the "Hur--1 ricane" location troupe tried In vain to reach her. Forty-five minutes later she was hurled through a boiling surf onto the rocks. She man- ! aged to cling there until help came. ! i Even rescue was difficult, because the men had to land far down the ’ coast and walk to the scene. Answering Your Questions! Mona Raye, Venice: Certainly, some of the film people make money on their ranches. Ann Dvorak and Leslie Fenton got $7,000 from their walnut crop last year. Sounds a little odd, but Gertrude 1 Michael is chaperoning a party of 1 six studio makeupmen and hair dressers, who are going yachting over the week-end. They chartered a boat and asked Gertrude if she w’anted the job. Eleanor Powell starts “Rosalie" soon, which shows how oddly things work out. Back in 1928, when Ziegfeld was getting ready to produce the musical, he chose Eleanor for the role of Mary. She never opened with the play because she got the measles during rehearsals. Not only got them, but gave them to Ziegfeld. Chatter In case the photographers want to know who ran out the back door of the Hawaiian Paradise as they entered, it was Nan Macy Brill. Yes, sir, Nan actually ran from photographers . . . Jan Garber has taken Jean Harlow s house at Catalina . . . After his Guyamas trip, they are calling Astaire "Fisherman Fred’’. He caught three swordfish, one over 200 pounds . . . Lee Russell ana Herbert Marshall have been dining at the Trocadero again. The friendship is really going to persist, huh . . . Jimmy Cagny’s kid sister, Jeanne, is spending the summer with him in Hollywood . . . Guess everybody will be going to thes Del Mar track over the week-end. Neat slogan they have. "Where the turt meets the surf" ... If we are to believe what we hear, Barbara Stanwyck and Bob Taylor risked getting mobbed by dancing at the Palomar ... And look out for a new book on trailers. Ca^ or J s writing it, and the title will be. , "Get Thee Behind Me." -
