By HARRISON CARROLL • Cops right, IH:<7 Kin* Ftsturm Kyndlcatf, lac. HOLI.YWOOD—The old southern custom of slapping the cheeks with a hair brush to induce color may have worked all right for the belles of the day, but It has caused Bette Davis and Warner Brothers no end of trouble. After the star performed the rite In "Jezebel" (there were a number of takes), her checks became so swollen that i she couldn’t work for tw'o days. Now she ts away from the camera again with an Infected face. ; And medicos say It’s the result of the hair brush rupturing a gland In her Aeek. Dixie Dunbar’s oft-rumored romance with Bob Herndon Is now colder than Ice. She is telling friends she never wants to see him again and, hereafter, Is going to follow mama’s advice and concentrate on her career. It took a doctor's certificate to turn the trick, but this year Ann ! Sothern will spend the holidays j with Roger Pryor. Ann went south ! to join her band-leading husband 1 after her last picture at R-K-O, but was taken sick and spent 10 days in bed. With a picture (“Shooting at the Moon") due to start Dec. 15, she ' faced the prospect of a short vaca--1 tion. Now, however, she has sent R-K-O a doctor's certificate that she must take at least a month’s rest. Without investigating too closely, the studio has decided to let her I have her wish. The film is being postponed until the middle of | January. In case Winchcll doesn't know it yet, Margerie Hockley, his secretary on the coast, has been secretly j married since Oct. 31, 1935, to Jerome S. Goldberg, of the camera department at the Columbia studios. Neil Hamilton has an idea In which you fans probably will be glad to co-operate. Hereafter, he is charging 25 cents for autographed photos. The money will go to the Braille institute for use Japanese gunboat ami a Japanese | 1 destroyer, to back up the mine- ! sweepers in any fight. The fleet was expected here late Friday. It was planned to steam I slowly because of the dangers from I blockading booms, mines, and i j possible attack from shore or air j . I Weldon James, chief of the j United Press bureau at Nanking, was aboard the Oahu, on which lie wrote today—in cooperation with British. Italian and Chinese cor , j respondents — the first direct ac- | count of the Japanese airplane j attack. There was general agreement

In aiding the blind For a number of years, Hamilton has been Inter | ested In those who have lost their j sight. Twice each week, he goes j to the soldier's home at Sawtellc and reads to the blind Inmates. Casual visitors to Clara Bow’s "It" case are never seated at one table up near the front of the restaurant. It Is called “The Watering Trough" and Is reserved for Rex Bell’s cowboy friends who may want to drop into the late spot. They often come In wearing their high-heeled boots and 10gallon hats. Bell saves them this special spot because he doesn't want any of his old friends to think he has gone high-hat since entering the restaurant business. They are using so many spirited I horses in "The Girl of the Golden West” that Director Robert Leonard has a registered nurse on the set at all times. So far he has been her only patient, and he lias required treatment on three occasions. Once to get a rock sliver removed from his eye. The second time to get a finger repaired after a box of matches had flared up In his hand. And finally to have a splinter dug out from beneath his fingernail. Quickies. . . . Trying to find the manager’s cottage at the B Bar H ranch, Fred Keating was mistaken for a peeping tom. ... In the Paramount stage show this week were both Edgar Bergen and Ken Mur- > ray. They have a common interest offstage, too —Andrea Leeds. . . . | Dorothy Crane, nurse for the Pat O’Brien youngsters, has sold a j story to a fan magazine on how it feels to live in a star’s house- | hold. . . . New twosomes: Frances j Gifford and Alexander D’Arcy at 1 the Case Lamaze; Sandra Rambeau and Billy Seymour at the Victor' Hugo. . . . Since announcing her coming trip through the canal, Eleanor Powell has received dozens of seasick remedies from fans. . . . And Errol Flynn held up the "Robin Hood" company for half an hour when he accidentally set fire to Basil Rathbone's beard, then completed the damage by tossing a bucket of water in his face. | among survivors, apparently, that j machine gun five directed at the i Panay came from two Japanese | landing party craft at the river I bank, and continued until the j Panay Sank — her American flag I plainly visible. This belief caused i fresh indignation among Americans here at the attack. It was noted that in an official casualty list three of the Panay's crew suffered machine gun bullet wouitus. However, these might have been fired from the planes. Apparently, as the Panay’s gun crew left the stricken ship a few minutes before she actually sank.

In a full on the streets Officer Miller sustained a slightly sprained right v/rlet. As for Old Man Winter-chuckling gleefully, he discarded his white fur coat of snow and donned a slippery slicker of ice — much to the discomfort of pedestrians and motorists alike. The sight of a pedestrian slipping land sliding along the walks was a .common one today and traffic this morning was almost at a standstill. Bus schedules were somewhat ' delayed by the inclement weather I conditions. o House May Meet Nights To Pass Labor Measure j L Washington. Dec. 15 —(UP) — I Speaker William B.

Fast-Starting Gasoline COMBATS RUST and CORROSION caused by “Cold Sweat" Your motor actually “sweats” over a gallon of water every time it uses a gallon of gasoline. This “Cold Sweat”, this water that rusts and corrodes the delicate metal parts of motors, must be fought continually. Now, fast-starting Tvdol Gasoline contains a special top-cylinder oil that constantly lubricates and waterproofs your valves and upper-cylinders, protects j them from rust and corrosion. But that’s not all. Tydol jalso contains an anti-rust, I anti-corrosion cleaning agent. Together, these Tydol extras that cost you nothing extra help keep your motor in tiptop shape, ready to start in no time . . . anytime! • The next cold morning you start your motor, hot vapors will strike cold metal. Condensation will take p'.ace. You will see clouds of steam and drops of water pour out of the exhaust. That’s “Cold Sweat”! You only tee It.. . but your motor feels it. You can measure in a drinking glass the water that accumulates from “Cold Sweat” outside your motor. But inside your motor, this water, unless checked, rusts and corrodes valves and other vital parts. im P i ELBERSON Service Station Decalur, Ind. I I L’oor ll»3T by Tld* Water Aaaoclated Oil f'ompauy
