Astor Baby to
Divide Time

HOLLYWOOD, April 20 G.N.s.)
Although legally in her fathers
custody, little Marilyn Thorpe,
212-year-old daughter of Mary
Aston, is living with her mother
and probably will continue to do
so as long as the star remains
in Hollywood.
The Warner Brothers actress
made this clear today as she
prepared to go on with her career
following the breakup Of her
marriage to DR.. FRANKLIN Thorpe,
well-known surgeon of the film
capital.
"MariIyn's father and I dis
cussed all this before the filing
of the suit" declared the star.
my baby'S welfare was my
first concern and thought
she would be better living in
California.
$50 long as I am here, of
course, / want her with me, but
in case the films move to the
East, or 1 do q play on Broad
way, I think she should stay
with her father"
Mary has taken a house in
Beverly Hills to make a home
for herself and Marilyn. For
the time being, DR.. Thorpe occu-
pies the old family residence, but,
according to the star, 1t shortly
will go up for sale.

The station Grets Carlo
had been reproduced in the far
corner of the M. G.. M. lot, and
was surrounded by a 12-foot high
board fence topped with barbed
wire.
At the end of the scene, Greta
happened to glance up. Director
Clarence Brown saw her surprised
expression and looked up too. So
did the ASSISTANTS.
There. on the top of the fence,
only few feet from Carlo was
a gate crasher, oblivious to the
barbed wire. The gate crasher
smiled. Carlo smiled too.
For the intruder was Ruth
vols hit, four-and- a-half-year-old
Culver City youngster. A parallel
had been put outside the fence to
support a reflector. Ruth had
climbed upon the parallel and had
watched the whole scene.

Born in Seattle, the young &C
tor moved with his family to the
Nations Capital at an early age.
His father, William j. LaVarre,
for many years has been a light
house inspector for the Govern
ment, with headquarters in Wash
ington.
After establishing a record with
the Georgetown eleven, LaVarre
sought a theatrical career and
headed for New York. For four
seasons he played with the New
York Theater Guild, and attained
success that placed him with
several Broadway productions. He
appeared in 1.-THE Faithful"
frankie and Johnnie" and
"Lil.om."
At the outset of the depression
period, when theatricals became
dull in the metropolis, LaVarre ar
ranged to make a trip to Holly
wood and try his work in the
films. He purchased a specially
built light truck, equipped for
sleeping, and bundling up his
small family started for the land
c: make believe. Since his arrival
The Washington times., 1935-04-20

in Hollywood he has played many
important roles in pictures.
Under Cecil B. DeMille's direc-
ton in 1.-THE Crusades," LaVarre
appears as a royal knight in the
Council of Kings scene.
LaVarre's brother, William J..
LaVarre, jr., has gained fame
through his explorations in South
America. In 1923, he brought
back a 3O-carat diamond, said to
be the finest found in British
Guinea fields and presented it to
the Smithsonian Institute. An
other brother, Franklin (Andre)
LaVarre, for years has been the
camera and still picture man for
Burton Holmes, explorer and lee
turer.

More ana more 1eaGuFeQ paTGS'
and lesser roles are being filled
by the imported Thespians and
numbers of Notwithstanding
players being forced into the
ranks of dress extras with con-
sequent decrease in salary.
Just what to do about it is
the question that has Hollywood
in a turmoil. So far, disgruntled
film players have taken no con-
certed action but the town re-
sounds with their walls Of pro-
test.
Latest of the invaders to storm
the sacred portals of moviedom
is curly-haired ex-Hollywoodian
Herbert Rawlinson, fresh from
the footlights of the Big Town.
Irked by the delay resulting
from the switch from silents to
talkies, Rawlinson journeyed to
New York and went on the stage.
After six years of stage work he
returned a few days ago, filled
with ambition to again appear on
the screen.
Gets q Quick Start
Four days after ex-heroine res
cuer Rawlinson stepped off the
gang plank he was signed by
Paramount for a part in "Fed-
eral Dick" their contribution to
the field of undercoverman pic

With Rawlinson in the same
opus appear former Broadwayites
Arthur Aylesworth and Frank
Shannon, familiar to New York
playgoers.
Former leading men all, they
welcomed the opportunity to take
lesser roles in flickers.

rivals. Actor Overman pulled up

lively unimportant roles he now
has a contract with successfully
better parts.
Most recent of the feminine pill
grims is brown-haired Mary Nash
who arrived on the coast a month
ago with the avowed intention of
remaining here permanently. Her
first part was an important role
in college Scandal"
Dean Jaeger, featured in the
stage hit Tobacco Road" was
signed upon arrival in Hollywood
and has been going to town ever
since.
The Morgan brothers, Frank
and Ralph, are not exactly new
to the screen but their names
were in the lights on Broadway.
And they first played minor
roles in films.
1t was Hollywood that made
Margaret Sullivan, of stage fame,
really famous. Well known in
New York. her work in "Only Yes
terday" started her on the road to
Stardom and greater renown.
Other BroadWayites now knock

There seems to be no apparent
reason why these m a riages
should be so successful while
other film nuptial ties are severed
in the divorce courts. But they
endure through the years while
unions wherein both parties are
professionals seem invariably to
collapse.
No one dares mention Holly
woods lasting marriages without
including the names of Mr.. and
Mrs. Joe E. Brown. Theirs Is al
most always the match held up
as an Illustration when some one
leaps to the defense of marriage
in motion pictures.
The comedian and Mrs. Brown
have been welded nearly a score
years and Mrs. Brown, before her
marriage, was professional mu-
Sician.
Another movie marriage rapid
ly nearing the fifth of century
mark is that of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hugh Herbert. The comedians
wife, before and for short time
after her marriage, appeared with
Herbert on the stage, but she is
now retired.
Are On Allowances
Mrs. James Francis Cagney,
who is known in cinemaland as
Bill" once ''hoofed" with her
husband on the vaudeville stage.
But she has no interest in pic
lures other than to assist Jimmy
in the management and conduct
Of his affairs. Long ago Cagney
gave the keeping of the family
finances into her hands and put
himself voluntarily under an al.
lowance from her. That this ar
rangement has been successful is
illustrated by the fact that the
Cagneys' marriage has long out
lived the average Hollywood
union-13 years, to be exact.
Mrs. Paul NUM-, who was Bella
FInkel in the Yiddish theater Of
New York, is another fiIms wife
who sacrificed her own promising
career to devote all her time to
furthering the undertakings of
her husband. Her interst in the
silver screen is intense, but only
as the wife Of Paul NUM-. She
has no ambition whatever to be
Of the screen herself.
Happily Wed
The NUNS is another marriage
that has spanned more than a
decade.
Mr.. and Mrs. Warren William
also have been married a decade
and there are many other film
, unions, the feminine half of
which falls in the nonprofessional
or retired classification, that have
endured a similar length of time,

is the fact that virtually without
