or 20 times" said Tallulah, who
can cuss when the situation calls
for strong language.
All the while Tallulah toyed
with a long glass of coke" She
is strictly on the wagon, her only
dissipation cigarettes.
Flashlights popped for the Red
Cross girls who are helping out
the Bankhead flood relief matinee
at the National Theater on Thurs
day, Flashlights popped some
more for the star between the
Speaker and Mrs. Bankhead.
TALLULAH LOOKS GOOD
Between nibbles of canapes 1t
developed that Miss Bankhead
had been tested in Hollywood
around Christmas time for the
role of Scarlet O'Hara in Gone
With the Wind" while wearing
some of Garbo's Camille clothes.
She considers Scarlet O'Hara a
selfish, scheming, stupid, super
ficial woman without a redeeming
feature. Scarlet is liar and a
cheat, incapable of any real emo
ton. Vain, vapid and unpatriotic.
Cold blooded and calculating.
But Tallulah Bankhead would
adore playing such a girl for the
movies.
split an aristocratic hamburger
with Eddie Plohn of the National
Theater. swapped a word with
First Nighters DR.. and Mrs. Will
liam C. Gwynn, admired the en-
ergy of Mrs. John Allan Dougherty
who invariably makes "go" of
anything she undertakes, and
learned from Mr.. and Mrs. E. Cor
ing Bliss that the Junior League is
selling tickets for the Bankhead
Red Cross matinee.
All the while Tallulah, in black
velvet, shaking her dusky brown
locks, was expounding to the ad-
miring press who didn't dare pull
cut a pencil, while the star ges-
tured with deep carmined fingers,
and told all. Well, nearly all.
Edie, the Bankhead duenna-sec-
retary, guardian and companion,
surveyed the scene. These Wash
ington newspaper people are nice
folks" observed Edie. Let's hope
Tallulah thinks so.

Goyety Boasts
Aunt Hattie

Last night at the Gayety Thea.
ter middle-aged, buxom, colored
entertainer named Aunt Hattie, a
native w a shin gton product,
stopped the show, brought down
the house, laid EN- in the aiSleS
and otherwise contributed to the
gayety of nations as well as the
Gayety.
Not that this smiling sepia sen.
Sation is the only star on Col.
James Lakes menu this week
because also on tap are such old
timers as Billy Bang En-" Ha-
gen and Harry Can't-Think-o k-of-His'
LaSt-Name, or Cheese and Crack
ers." But the audience last night
gave the honors to Aunt Hattie,
awarding her the Croix de Guerro
with palms (all of them clapping)
for her songs, alleged dancing and
mimic strip act.
However, the boys out front re-
covered themselves sufficiently to
approve vociferiously of the spe-
cialty offered by brunette Louise
Stewart. Before that they had
warmed their palms encouraging
another speciality artist. whose
name does not appear in the Gay
ETY. advertisements or the GaYety
program. Hence, her cognomen
cannot be vouchsafed, especially
because there is no Gayety pro
gram this week.
Billy Hagen and his fellow comic,
H arry Wish I-Could-Remember,
His-Last-Name, have some smooth
moments.
Two good lady dancers, titled
Margie and Marge, 1 believe. have
three opportunities to display their
grace, while the straight men and
young fellow who sings give a
good account of themselves. Col
onel Lake has also provided Ninth
Street with a better than average
! chorus this week.
