w« 1 Olivia De Havllland

mandie stopped Ito discharge passengers a t the Isle of Wight that she threw a shawl over her head i and went ashore in the third class tourist tender to avoid i n t e r v iewers. But what the British reI porters didn’t . know was that

Mary Pickford, veteran of many Atlantic crossings, engineered the ruse. After seeing Olivia on her way, Miss Pickford joined the first class passengers and faced the press. The Coogan case would have taken an entirely different turn if the Bernsteins had followed the advice of Dave Epstein, publicity man, who thought he had them talked into making an important statement. However, the press conference never came off. * Ever wonder how Myrna Loy happened to pick her last name? The star, real name Williams, decided to use a different one on the screen because Kathlyn Williams was a well-known of the day. Myrna had been reading French history and had come ! across the name, Lois. It appealed to her so much that she shortened , it to "Loy" and became Myrna Loy. The Oriental angle never occurred to her until the phone book came out and she saw her name sandwiched in between Hop Loy i and Sing Loy. Groucho Marx has lost the glasses that he uses as part of his 1 screen makeup. He purchased I them 11 years ago in New York for 25 cents. For their return, no questions asked, he will pay a reward of $75. In "Right Angles", the picture he’ll make for Gregory La Cava, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., plays the type of role that his father made famous. To live up to the athletic prowess demanded, the star has installed a gymnasium in his beach Ford counsel or delay a hearing on them until its petition for withdrawal of enforcement of its order against the Ford Co. is decided. 0 LIST VOTES IN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Franklin 11.

May 4 —(UP) —Jack Edwards, former mayor of Marion, staged a comeback today to win the Democratic mayoralty nomination by approximately a five to one mar- ■ gin. ! Mayor Carl Barney, who defeated Edwards four years ago. was lead-' ing for the Republican nomination by the same margin and the two •men seemed certain to campaign against each other again in tbe fall election. — —o- — — Rare Racing Prints Placed On Display French Lidk, Ind, May 4—(UP)— | A $150,000 gallery of rare racing prints was formally opened at the! famous SPA today by Stuyvesant Peabody, nationally-known Chicago’ turfman. Shown as a feature of the derby

home, even to pole vaulting , apparatus. This will be the first time young ' Fairbanks has invaded his father's field unless you count “Prisoner of ■ Zenda". Just found out that Arleen Whelan has never seen a foot of I "Kidnaped” and doesn’t know what she will look like on the screen except from some of the early tests.. She tried for months I to see the rushes but Director Al , Werker was afraid it would make | her self-conscious. If you h(»vc never seen and heard yourself on the screen, you can't Imagine what ! a shock It is. I'm speaking from brief but con- ' vlncing experience. They caught me coming out of a preview once and I still don't believe that the odd-looking fellow In the Paramount trailer was yours truly. The most interested spectators at the Warner Brothers archery tournament In Palm Springs were the local Indians who never have used bows and arrows. . . . Grim Irony in the fact that, when M. G. M. Radio Director Mort Harris was killed on the Ridge route, the motorist who reported the accident was his cousin . . . who just happened to witness the tragedy and was unaware of the Identity of the victims. . . . Claire Trevor says there will be no elopement but i a small church wedding about the middle of July. . . . Both kids ac- 1 company the Stuart Erwins on ' their two weeks' trip to New York. They nave never left the youngsters for longer than a weekend. . . . Stay-

And Mickey Rooney has been invited to be guest of honor at the senior prom of the Marlborough School for Girls. If you know Mickey, i this is funnier. “““ week program, the prints are of trotters and turf characters of a past age, including 40 Currier and Ive Lithographs. Thomas D. Taggart, owner of the hotel, has for the past 30 years gathered the prints from barns, attics, stables and curio shops. o Local Lady’s Father Winner At Huntington Huntington Ind., May 4 —(UP)— Mayor C. W. H Bangs, who went to jail to champion the cause of muni-cipally-owned utilities, trailed his opponent for the Republican nomin- ' ation for mayor in unofficial re- ' turns early today. With seven of 10 precincts re>ported, Bangs had 603 votes against 1,11S7 for his rival, Foster E. Cutshall. Mr. Cutshall is the father of Mrs. Dean Dorwin of this city. o Harry Gottschalk Fort Wayne Winner! Fort Wayne, Ind., May 4 —(UP) — | i Complete unofficial returns from the city’s 45 precincts today gave Harry W. Gottschalk, Allen county surveyor, the Democratic nomination for mayor of Fort Wayne.

Baals, nnoppos- ' ed on the republican ticket for reelection. received 6,354 votes. | _ 11-Year-Old Lad Drowns In River Bedford, Ind, May 4 —(UP) — 1 Charles Eugene Brinson, 11, son of i Orville Brinson of Avoca, drowned | in the White river near Williams yesterday when he fell off a coffer dam below the main dam less than 20 hours after Lester Etchison and : his three sons plunged to their (death in an automobile.
