While she is very beau-| tiful, Miss Alden is not in the! same league with Jane Russell, who I suppose is America’s Sweaterheart. Well, I can talk to Miss Alden pretty frankly about the sweaters for small girls ideas, because I knew her when she was called Miriam Davies. First she was a cigaret girl, then a chorus doll, at the Copa-| cabana, then she became a model| and TV actress.

Miss Alden

“How did you get picked for this position which will result in your figure being gawked at by, millions?” .I asked her. “I get a lot of attention whereever I go because duite a lot of people think I'look like Gene Tierney.” Miss Alden then explained that nowaddys & sweater isn’t exactly & sweater,

“They Won't Forget,” produced by Mervyn Leroy, in which she wore a tight sweater, and did a lot of walking up and downmnstairs. People came for miles merely

Paris fashion decree:

The bust was to be de-empha-sized. That could be done with looser blousey-looking sweaters. “And does that mean you're not supposed to wear falsies with sweaters any more?” I asked, in alarm. “Well, I don’t wear them, anyway, because you perspire in falsies, and se you shrink,” Miss Alden said. “How was that?” “Well, when you reduce, you wear rubber panties, and the perspiring takes, off your hips. “Same thing with rubber falsies —=you perspire and you shrink— but not in the hips. At least when I wore them I got smaller, and when I quit wearing them I filled out.”
