affections.
This lovely and exciting per-
sonality will attend the local
festivities through the co-opera-
ton of the Twentieth Century
Fox Film Corporation. 1t was
not very long ago that AnnabelTa
arrived here from France her

Daryl Zanuck production, "The
Baroness and the Butler" and
subsequently was starred with
her real life Romeo, Tyrone
Power, in "Suez," described as
one Of the outstanding film Gre
ations of 1888.
SHE LIKES TYRONE
She enjoys the odd distinction
Of having come to America to
make a French version Of Cav
alcade" and then return to
Europe to make English-speak-
ing versions Of such hits as
"Wings Of the Morning" Din
ner at the Ritz" and Under
the Red Robe"
Since it Is an American Gus
tom to seek out a movie stars
full identity, her last name Is
Carpenter, which she does not
use. It Is the custom in France
to call movie stars by one name
only. She is expecting a final
divorce decree from her French
husband, and perhaps then may
come some definite development
In the romantic affairs OF Anna
bella and Tyrone.
Annabella's acceptance brings
the list of stars who will attend
the birthday celebrations to
three Olivia DeHavilland, who
has lust been cast as Melina in
the film version Of Gone with

will come here under the ban
ner of the Warner Bros. studios.
PROMISING ACTRESS
Within the next few days it
Is expected that Metro -Goldwyn.
Mayer, Paramount and several
of the other major studios will
swell this already exciting list:
Each of the visiting stars Will
make personal appearances at

as the midnight shows to be
held at both the Earle and
