JOHN CILBE:RT'S
DEATH MOURNED
IN FILM COLONY
Rites to Be Held Tomorrow
for Screen Lover, Idol
of Silent Days.

By United Prfss
HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 1O.-The
body of John Gilbert lay on NOR
tuary slab today while the world
mourned the. death of one of the
last Of The silent screens great idols.
For Gilbert the big parade" was
over. His friends will bid the
happy go-lucky doughboy of THE
Big Parade" a final farewell at pri-
vate funeral services tomorrow
morning.
Gilbert, the Prince Charming"
to millions of women who Wor-
shipped him for his romantic screen
roles, died with only a nurse at his
side, although he had courted and
married four women.
An attack of heart disease cut off
his life in his thirty-eighth year as
he planned his return to the screen
with an engagements in England.
Gilbert dated his success in mo-
ton pictures back to the time he
played the title role in Cameo
Kirby" the story of river gam
bier, which he made in the early
tWenties.
Leatrice Joy Second Wife
On the screen a romantic, sue
cessful lover, Gilbert in actual life
was unable to achieve married hap
piness.
His first short-lived romance was
with Olivia Burwell, Mississippi
society girl, whom he married in
1917 when he was an extra getting
infrequent film engagements. Un-
able to live OH Gilbert's salary, his
bride went home. She divorced him
in 1922.
BY that time Gilbert had achieved
some success as a screen lover and
a year after his divorce married
Leatrice Joy, then a picture star
Their marriage lasted slightly more
than year and in 1924 they were
divorced. A daughter was born to
them.
Bachelor for Five Years
During the next five years Gilbert
remained a bachelor, the most eligi-
BILE in Hollywood. A series of highly
successful films, headed by THE Big
Parade" 1.-The Merry Widow" ""Flesh
and the Devil" and Love" brought
him wealth.
1t was during this period he and
Greta Garbo we're co-starred and
were reported in love.
Although Gilbert never discussed
his romance with Carlo, friends
said they actually motored to. a
nearby "Gretna Green" to be mar
ried only to have Miss Garbo utter
her famed remark, Il think I go
home" and refused to carry out the
elopement.
Romance With Ina Claire
After the Garbo romance cooled
Gilbert became interested in Ina
Claire, stage star, and they were
married in 1929 That marriage
ended in divorce in 1881
A month after the Ina Claire de-
cree became final in 1882, Gilbert
married Virginia Bruce, who di-
vorced him in 1884. A daughter
was born of their marriage.
Talkies Spelled His Doom
The advent of sound pictures
spelled the end of Gilbert's career
although he remained under con-
tract to Metro Goldwyn-Mayer un-
til year ago, receiving several mil
lion dollars for making few un-
successful pictures.

Flat Rock Section Has Attracted
Tourists for More Than a
Century

One of the most beautiful and best known
sections of Henderson county is that known as
the Flat Rock section, lying south of Hender-
sonville on the Greenville highway, and the
scene of many of the most beautiful summer es-
tates in the South.
Flat Rock is probably the oldest resort Sec
ton in Western North Carolina The beauty
and desirability of the section as a place for
summer homes appealed to residents of Charles
ton and the South Carolina lowlands more than
100 years ago and numbers of these people
made the then laborious journey to Flat Rock
every summer.
Through the years since the section has
grown in fame until it is now dotted with the
summer homes of people from many parts of
the nation
Flat Rock bears the air of the old Southland
in probably greater degree than any resort Sec
ton in the country, and many of the original
homes serve as summer places for descendants
of names we'll known in history.
The section centers around st. Johns-in-th
Wilderness Episcopal church, the Tooth ami
versary of which was observed in 1884, and in
the cemetery of which are buried number of
men illustrious in southern history.
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1936-05-01

Hendersonville has city park with tennis,
croquet, rogue, SWITCHBOARD and horseshoe
courts; shelterhouse for checker playing and
other uses; comfortable benches under shade
trees; shrubbery and flowers; drinking and
ornamental fountains. The park was develop
ed by the Chamber of Commerce with funds
supplied by an unnamed donor. 1t is two
blocks from the business district between the
American Legion home and the high school
athletic field, and tourists find it a most at
tractive place for rest or recreation.

woods growing importance as q net

sponsible for this increased activity

If and when KNX joins c. B. S., the
present outlets of that network will
return to independent status, or per-
haps join the newest Of the major
network entities-Mutual Broadcasting
System. The important stations are
XIII, Los Angeles, and KFRC, San
Francisco, both owned by Don Lee
Broadcasting System. Both are
scheduled to leave c. B. 8. not later
than January l, next. Then G. B. s..

T,oo Important Stations May
Become Adiuncts of Columbia

WHETHER two important broad
wv casting stations-KNX, Los An
geles, and WEEP, Boston-will become
licensed adjuncts of the Columbia
Broadcasting System, now rests with
the Federal Communications Commits
sion by virtue of pending applications
for their assignment from present
licensees to the Nationwide network
In connection with the projected
purchase Of KNX for a record price
of approximately $780, 900, the Fed
eral Communications Commission
Broadcast Division has decided to hold
q formal hearing next June 20. At
the same time it will consider renewal
of that stations license, since it was
cited some months ago for alleged
violations Of program ethics by broad
casting programs with advertising con-
strued by the F. c. C. to be inimical
to public welfare.
Also before the Broadcast Division
is the application for assignment of
wEEI from the Edison Electric Illum-
mating Co. Of Boston, to G. B. s.
under q lease arrangement providing
for payment of $4,000 year for
six years, with an option to purchase.
In addition, there would be O consid-
Grafton for leasing studios and offices.
Whether this application also will be
set for hearing has not yet been In
dicated.
The Importance Of these two license
transfers lies in the fact that the
Affiliations of more than dozen other
stations with existing networks are
involved. Assuming approval <of the
transfers, the complexion of network
operations of stations on the Pacific
Coast and in the New England area
will s,e changed in several ways.
