Miss Talnladge's new leading man..
Carminati is famous abroad for
his romantic roles opposite the

through life with his raven locks
combed straight back until Di-
rector Sidney "A. Franklin de-
cided that the Russian lover
whom the leading man IS por-
traying. should have different
style hair cut.
The memontous question Of

STARS, LIKE BUFFERS,
STRIVE TO BEAT 100
By the Associated Press.

Breaking 100 is as much the goal
for the golf experts as 1t Is for the
veriest duffer at the game, and the
star finds his objective Just as dinicult
to attain.
The difference lies in the fact that
the champion wants to cover 81 holes
in 100. while the garden variety Of
linksman desires only to score that
number Of strokes for IS hcles. How
much more difficult the experts goal
is of attainment. is shown by the fact
that only in few instances and under
favorable circumstances has star
performer totaled 100 for q holes.
Bobby Jones did it once and SC did
Walter Hagen. Bill Mehlhorn turned
the trick at Youngstown in the final
day of the Western open to finish run
ner-up to Macdonald Smith, and there
have been a few other instances.
Almost invariably these scores have
been recorded on links that were pro-
nounced comparatively easy.
There Is no disgrace in the inability
of the stars to reach this goal. for 1t
means that they must average three
strokes or four to the hole on each
nine. To do this they must acquire a
dozen brides and probably couple Of
eagles for their cards.
