For instance, I have seen Lilyan
TaShman, described as Holly
woods best dressed woman, pa
rade on the screen in outfits that
inspired either wonderment or ad-
miration with the SuttragetteS,
while to me she looked like an
escaped circus queen.
I have suddenly become fash
ion conscious because Warner
Bros have jingled the phone to
say that Washington's most fash
ionable dresSmakers, department
store buyers, style experts and
others interested in what the
well-dressed woman should wear
have been invited to a Saturday

the bootlegging Of exclusive Paris
models and the art of the coutur-
iere is abundantly displayed. Its
models and its gowns are her
aided as chic and colorful and in
dividual and designed to make
even the most blase gown filter
raise her lorgnettes.
Orry Kelly, noted Hollywood
designer and style authority, con-
ceived the creations for this pic
ture. The good task completed,
expert Kelly (no relation), having
little to do, proceeded to nominate
the 10 best dressed women in the

New Deal For Ruth

Incidentally, the tiff between
Ruth Donnelly, who has appeared
in Is Warner pictures during the
past year or so, and that studio,
has been settled. Warmers wanted
her to take a big cut in salary, but
the compromise ended with both
parties meeting each other half
way-and Ruth gets a new deal.
She hops to New York for a vaca-
ton this week.
Hollywood is just now getting
the "backwash" from the Mervyn
LIE Roy-DoriS Warner wedding,
which was not without its laugh
angles. We hear that practically
everyone of any Importance
around New York was sent wires
inviting him to the big stag dinner
for Mervyn, supposedly given for
him by Louis Shurr previous to
the big night. At the end of each
telegram were the words, "ten
dollars a plate"

at Palm Springs were the Eddie

others. Lola's marriage to AL
Hall, scheduled for this month, is
now at the "poStponernent stage" )"
Glimpsed at the Colony Club,
which looks better since Walter
Wanger'S return, were the Daryl
ZanuckS, Joan and Gene Markey,
June Brewster, whose big romance
with a certain important local is
colder than ice; Sid Grammar,
Lupe Velez and Johnny Weiss
muller. Lupe seemed almost nude
with only three bracelets, two
rings and a few brooches on! On
her clothes, of course!

Producer Small
A few days ago we mentioned
that Producer Eddie Small was
all burned up at the Universal
Studio for starting production on
a picture called Countess Of
Monte Cristo," because he, Small,
had already announced a re-
make of 1.-The Count Of Monte
Cristo"-and thought the sim
ilarity of titles would hurt him.
He also claimed prior right"
But the pay-off-and the height
of nerve on Small's part (if
you ask usD is the fact that he
has also announced a production
to be called Little Woman, What
Now?"- Universal has al
ready bought the famous novel,
Little Man, What Now?" which
they are putting into work with
Margaret Sullivan as the star!
Andy Clyde, Scotch comic, says
he was all thrilled when his wife
showed him some tiny garments
the other day. And then she
confided that she's gotten herself
a job in q chorus!
