DOROTHY ASKS
*OUTSIDER'A AS
HUSBAND
BY HARRISON CARROLL
Copyright, 1891. Premier
Syndicate, Incl

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, May 25.
There's hope for us all. Dorothy
Mackaill would like to get mar
ried again, but not to an actor
They're fine friends, but I
want my husband to be an out
sider," says the star, who was
the subject of several marital
rumors on her recent trip to
Honolulu.
"The kind of fellows I usually
fall for" says Dorothy, either
are broke or earn about $50 a
week. That makes marriage a
pretty difficult proposition, as
long as I am in pictures. People
would call my husband Mr..
Mackaill,' and while that would
not bother me, it would him.
II don't like to make com
parison to dogs, but you know
an airedale; that's the kind of
man I'd like to marry"
AS soon as she finishes retakeS
on a Fox picture, Dorothy is go
ing back to Honolulu. She is
contented here as long as she is
working, but is unhappy when
she's not. She likes everything
about the islands-their beauty,
their easy-going manana exist
ence. This time she may buy
some property at Kileau, on the
windward side of the island.
Dorothy never has gone in
much for the social whirl of
Hollywood. Very Characteristic
is her remark: IT had a mar
velous stay in Honolulu. I didn't
have on an evening dress but
twice while I was there"
One mention of Russia and
David Freedman gets a pained
expression. The author. who is
out here working on Eddie Can
tors story, has had 100000
copies of his novel. "Mendel
Marantz," sold in Russia. But
due to muddled copyright situa-
ton, he hasn't collected a cent
of royalty. "By this time" he
complains, IT probably would own
most of Siberia"

Latest Gossip

Walter Wanger, new head of

rives here Wednesday. Ostensibly
his visit is for pleasure, but
rumorS are seething several
people call it to my attention
that Ina Claire and Robert Ames
are going places together. and,
after making up with Hugh
Trevor, Betty Compson is due to
take a two-weeks vacation. An
other flu victim is Dolores Del
Rio. Poor Dolores has had a
siege of bad health, but her lumi-
nous beauty is, if anything, en-
hanced. the first woman to lead
the parade at the Santa Barbara
fiesta will be Marguerite Churchill,
whom you know through Fox pic
lures. She is to ride the famous
race-horse, El Captain ap-
parently Kenneth McKenna had
made good as director. He's to
do Eddie Loves picture, "The
Spider" and a friend of Sylvia
Sidney tells me she is to follow
the example of Dorothy Mackaill,
and go to Honolulu. Many of
the film colony commute there
regularly. Janet Gaynor even
owns a house on the island.

Television, except for some
minor improvements, is precisely
where it was two years ago. No
new principle has been discovered.
With a $500 set one can receive
an image of sopranos tonsils,
but not much more. The chances,
are that if by any incredible mis-
fortune this image should not be
distorted beyond recognition by
static, the soprano will be singing
my Heart at Thy Sweet Voice"
so that you will have to turn the
whole thing off anyway.
There are no reasons why the
great companies which now con-
troll radio broadcasting should at
tempt to force television upon the
public prematurely. Sound broad
casting is feeble, chaotic and
stupid. Why should a man who
is having a stomach-ache over a
bowl of mush and milk attempt
to eat carload of Holsters?
Heb! Heb! Imagine Irwin s.
Cobb becoming a crooner. The
author has been signed to talk
about some old songs June IA at
WIZ, and he admits he might
have to warble to illustrate his
points. Never in his life has he
sung in public. And perhaps it's,
just as we'll.
