"HOW would you like to become

HOW would you like to become
one Of the greatest personalities
on the screen?" she was asked.
i would like that said Betty, but
I'm afraid won't have time. I'm
going to marry Jackie Coogan Decem-
Der 18. After that I am going to re-
tire from the screen"
So the publicity department went
right ahead and fired the first gun by
releasing a story to the effect Betty
mad decided to give up marriage to
Coogan In favor of a big-time career
in the movies. Coogan, in New York,
read the story before Betty even knsM
1t had been printed. He called his
fiancee on the phone. Betty tearfully
denied the story, reassured Jackie of
her intention to wed him on the pre-
scribed date and then stormed over
to the studio. There the whole de-
partment got whopping piece of her
mind and she stamped off the lot
threatening to remain away entirely
If there were further efforts to upset
her marriage plans.
Nevertheless, Paramount continues
to make added stunt entries in that
big blue-covered book marked Betty
Cradle Campaign"
1t can't believe she is in earnest
about marriage. And if she is, why
can't she be dissuaded?
