them Mae Brown, a very delect-
able bit of feminine pulchritude
built along architectural lines Of
amazing perfection.
Eddie Lloyd, a grand burlesque
trouper, is the headline comic for
the week and maintains his high
batting average. Eddie is one
who never disappoints. His dance
speciality, with the short baggy
coat, is repeated and is as new
and funny as when we first saw it.
Charles LaFord and Eddie Cas-
sci do yeoman service in contrib
uting to the gayety Of the occa-
sion. Both are comics that work
along entirely different lines thus
bringing a touch of variety to
the action Of this revue.
The White Sisters, a gorgeous

yesterday with their SpecialtieS

THEY BORROWED GOLD
Early afternoon Saturday the
the new platinum blonde star of
Paramount was present in the
same Mayflower suite to greet the
Washington scribes. . In tail
ored suit of gray, trimmed with
fur and orchids, Miss George
looked fetching. Her first visit
to the Capital, either unofficial or
as a star. She was looking for
ward to the regulation yokelS
tour of the city with stops at the
Monument, Library of Congress,
Mt. Vernon, etc.. Her husband
is with her but keeps out of sight
on these occasions. Hollywood
doesn't like husbands hanging
around when there are still pic
lures to be taken, lest they edge
into the limelight. AS everybody
knows by now Gladys George was
the scintillating star of the stage
comedy, Personal Appearance"
She would have liked to have
done the same role in pictures
but a movie star with swaying
hips saw the play in Chicago,
liked it, wrote a check and &C
Quired the Hollywood rights for
herself. /. That left Gladys George
still on call for a Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer part which was yet to turn
up. Then Paramount be a n

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 19.-That
old superstition about removing
wedding rings Is casually dis
missed by Franchot Tone. The
stars marriage to Joan Craw,
ford was a double ring ceremony
and, until the other day, the gold
band had never been off his
finger.
But, in Quality Street." he
plays a bachelor Of the 1905 era.
Director George Stevens sug.
gested that If Tone were super
stitious about removing his ring.
it could be covered with adhesive
and makeup.
Don't bother" said Tone. IT
have no superstitions Of any kind
and will remove the ring for the
scenes. If 1 were superstitious,
however, would believe thst love
could triumph over bad omenS
and that removing a ring could
not in any way affect a happy
marriage"
The seasons most unusual
casualty is George Brent. who
was Stung by three bees while in
