Bunny Gardel, who makes. up all of Miss Grable below the neck that isn't governed by her gown, says it's a shame that nobody has ever looked that far. : : “I've made up’ hundreds of pairs of feet in my time, but I've never seen a pair as perfect, as cute and pretty as Betty's,” Miss Gardel said. “They're perfectly shaped and so flexible she can spread her toes as freely as her fingers.” »
In these days of corns, callouses and bunions,,
Miss Grable's feet are as flawless as her face. The body makeup girl's praise of Miss Grable's is echoed by the artist Schneidau, who was commissioned to paint two life size portraits of Miss Grable, ermine-coated and “The’ Grable feet have Jho distortion: they are perfect in line. form, strength, spring, gracefulness and character,” he announced. : ht They sure are, Miss Gardel sald.

Was ‘Crossfire’ Untrue?
By
Erskine Johnson
HOLLYWOOD, Jan: 17—The People Talk Back, to Hollywood, to
one another and to me “I honestly believe that
‘Crossfire’ and pictures
of that Kind.are
suggesting that we have a great deal more intolerance in this country
than we really have. We have some
intolerance, that's true, but nowhere
near as much as these pictures imply. I don't like those pictures—they
would certainly make great. propaganda for some foreign country -to show as propaganda against us and our democratic way of life.”"—Los Angeles. “In 1948, Hollywood should show more sports in the -movies. Van Johnson gets the girl skater, Robert Taylor wins love match on a tennis court, and so on. And. don't forget to make the life of Babe Ruth. '— Portsmouth, O; ~ ~
