Donati' Comet Seen
As Star Of Bethlehem
By Seattle Scientist

SEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 25
G.N.SD.-The Star of Bethlehem,
which guided the Three Wise Men
across the deserts of Asia Minor
nearly 1000 years ago, according
to the New Testament, actually
existed, William G. Hale, presi-
dent of the Seattle Astronomical
Society, believed today.
Hale said the star likely was
Danati's Comet, a brilliant celes-
tial traveller, which can be seen
from the earth about once every
1900 years. It last appeared in
1858. Hale declared:
~ think it's pretty hard to be-
lieve the star was just myth, be-
cause those wise men knew a
lot about stars. They wOuIn't
have confused any of the planets
or major stars with the kind of a
star the story describes.
Donati'S Comet was seen from
the earth about the time of
ChriSt'S birth. That's pretty
close because there have been
many changes in calendars since,
and some authorities do not
agree on the date"

Glenda Farrell Hobby

The bed-what q bed-iS very

It's spread is quilted ivory satin
to match. She has, I learned
later, a comfort of Snow-white
bunny fur-lined with pale pink
satin, under which she climbs in
her bunny bed jacket to match
and lets her friends congregate
around to party while she rests.
It's her faVorite way of enter
tanning.
She Enters
Suddenly a door slams, a IA
miliar voice breaks the silence;
Miss Farrell comes daShing
breathlessly in, attired in a white
galyak coat over pale blue slacks.
A piece of blue maleen ties up
her freshly waved hair.
"Oh-Such a rush! I'm so
sorry. They kept me SO long
and 1 had to do my own chauf.
feuring this morning."
Now you understand her house.
Looking at her-a pale gold sort
of person with white skin and
blue eyes, the pastel house be-
gins to mean something. Like
the cat, she fits in, and her bub-
bling personality gives it the
T0IlY0oh uyhioh Iroc 1ooLioo hafopa
Now you tell her, truthfully, that
you like her house. She says:
II like it. It's all designed
around that blue sofa you're
sitting on. I saw that first and
liked it so well / built the house
around it,"
Pet Hobby
It's all part of her pet hobby.
She keeps two men busy all the
time hunting up ramshackle old
houses which she chinks up, re-
paints and papers, redecorateS
and sells. She says:
It's lots of fun. You should
have seen this house before 1

it out as a setting for myself. I
think it fits me pretty WELL"
She lives with her young son,
aged ten, whom she idolizeS. His
eight by ten photograph rests
alone on the table by her bed.
She has only one servant, ThereSe,
the maid of all work.
BreathleSsly-"I never stop, I
run around in circleS"-She takes
me through the bedroom and into
the dressing room where her
clothes are kept. She has very
beautiful things and her taste is
really excellent.
Like the houses that she builds,
she likes to design her own clothes
and she shows me bolts of fabric,
bits of trimming and sketches of
things she's going to have done.
She has the caution Of the
draughtSman and always works
things out thoroughly beforehand
to avoid disappointment.

Special to The Washington Times


HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 25.-The
angel who sits on the edge of a
white cloud dabbling his bare feet
in pink mist would be very much
at home at Glenda Farrells house.
Heavenly? Pale pink, pale blue
and white, satin and velvet and
bunny fur-even the cat matches
"a Siamese with blue eyes-a
cat, be it said who Whatsoever
the dining room table. At least
that's what he did when I was
there.
His mistress didn't see him do
it, but I doubt very much if he
would change his ways if she did.
She wouldn't throw out the white
mantel clock because it licked too
loud, and it is far less decorative
than the cat. He is the piece de
resistance, and he knows it.
White PredOminates
Miss Farrell hasn't gotten
home from the hairdresser's but
I'm expecting her any minute" p"
her red-haired servant tells you,
and exits.
The clock ticks. The cat walks.
You sit on the edge Of the pale
blue brocade sofa and cast your
eyes about. The carpet is white
and very "squoonchy." In one
corner is snoW-white baby grand
piano, traced ever so delicately
with gold.
Opposite is pa1e-pink brocaded
satin sofa. Blue satin curtains
loop across the doorway and win
doWS, and fall in nonchalant folds
to the entirely too much
material in those curtains-you
could have covered another chair
with what's draped on the floor.
Through the doors you see the
glacial whiteness of the dining
room. Everything in it is snow
white except the mahogany top
of the Duncan Phyfe dinner table
over which the cat now proceeds.
A Good Look
Through another door I see a
bedroom. for the house, set deep
in San Fernando Valley, is a bun
galow. This, think, must be her
bedroom. I edge off the blue
satin, tip across the white rug and
take a good look. 1 have learned
by now that the stars don't mind
shopping; they're used to it..
Glenda tells me later her house
was made for Snooping-she de-
signed it as setting for herself.
But the bedroom! It's a vision
of beauty. The sun streams i'll.
From one side a -ovely enclosed
garden with emerald grass, vivid
flowers and vines can be seen.
Heavy ivory satin drapes the win
doWs with blue chenille balI-trim-
ming. Everything is ivory except
one pale-blue chair and the gaily
fiowered upholstery Of the chaise

McGrady Sees Peace
Again Far Off as

SAN FRANCISC Dec.
IS G.N.SO.-Assistant Secretary
of Labor Edward F. McGrady, who
had hoped to announce the end of
the Pacific oast maritime strike
Of $1,000 men today, was arrang
ing, instead, new conference be-
tween one of the seven striking
maritime unions and shippers.
Settlement of the prolonged
strike which started at midnight
October 20 would have brought
great joy to McGrady. He worked
hard toward his goal. Day and
night he has been in session with
union representatives and ship
pers.
A few days ago he saw his goal
in sight. But it was only a Wis
ionary peace and soon vanished.
He had succeeded in bringing
about tentative agreements be-
tween two of the striking unions
the sailors group and the marine
firemen-and shippers.
Then came word from the Mari
time Federation Of the Pacific that
none of the seven striking unions
could rpt'fv tentative peace pacts

This was learned today from
Mrs. Walter E. Eliff, of 1889 Rit-

Mrs. Eliff revealed today that
both parents of the Rose Bowl
Queen, Mr.. and Mrs. Charles w.

their marriage in 1913, when they
moved to Seattle, Wash, where
they live now.
Miss Fitton is a senior at the

CRIES FOR HELP

Marine FIiers J oi in
Search For Liner
Down in West

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Dec.
IS G.N.S.).-Hope that the seven
passengers aboard the missing
Western Airliner would be found
alive was buoyed today with re-
ports on record from two amateur
radio operators, one in Denver and
one in ogden, Utah.
The Denver operator, Neil For
quer, communicating with Denver
officials of the Federal Radio
Communications Commission, said
he received a message which read,
"send a doctor, we can't get out.
We are off the line about IS miles
east Of Salt Lake City"
Passengers Mentioned
The Ogden amateur corrobor-
ated this message when he said to-
day he heard the words, seven
passengers"
AS a result OF these messages
an Army bombing plane was fly
ing over the rugged country
around Evanston, Wyo., today.
This is about IS miles off the line,
according to Army officials.
Forquer said:
"There was some reference to
q girl, but it was very indiStincI
and 1 couldn't get it."
Airline officials will check today
on a report that a tavern keeper
in Evanston heard the missing
motors" Of a big plane the same
morning the skyliner dropped
from sight.
Searchers entered their eleventh
day of fruitless hunting.
Marine Brother Hunts
Although many ground crews
and some air searchers have aban-
doned the hunt until after today,
Christmas, four Marine Corps
planes from the San Diego base,
headed by Harry Bogen, brother
of William Bogen, copilot Of the
missing 10-passenger plane, we're
in the air early today to continue
their relentless flights over the
rugged mountains of Utah, Ne
Vada, Arizona and Colorado.
With Pilots S. j. Samson and
Bogen on the Inflated liner were
