among others Tallulah Bankhead In
her quaint house In Farm street.
At that time, Miss Bankhead had
been q star on the London stage
several years, but had not won such
fame on Broadway, the fame she
has currently as star of THE Little
Foxes"
I'VE talked. That is. she talked.
She always talks" Morehouse said.
"She said she wanted nothing to do
with matrimony and then came back
to New York and married very hap
PLY. She said she always made
plenty of money and never had a
penny. That's why I adore her.
She was then doing Camille in

The close friends of the chron-

a certain extent, lived his role In

real life as far as seclusion was
concerned. Gillette was past 80
when he died few years ago.
For some time, I'd been wanting
to go to Seventh Sister, Morehouse
said, (Which was the medieval re-
treat Of Gillette on the crest Of q
hill at Hadlyme, high above the
Connecticut River. Few people
entered his gates. With his servants
and his yellow cats, the distinguished
actor-dramatist and creator Of Sher-
lock Holmes lived as a recluse in his
fleldstone castle-a structure with
walls from two to four feet thick,
doors Of chopped oak with hand
carved latches, an enormous fire.

His letters, painstakingly written
and done in red and black ink
sometime both-were incisive, char
acteristically laconic and frequent
ly profane. They reflected his pre-
cision, his courtesy and his unfail-
ing good humor."
Gillette asked Morehouse to come
up to his countryside estate and
take q ride on the diminutive and
private railroad which ran over
miniature trestles and through mid
get tunnels. It was ride, with

than streetcar fare when her fan
dance at the Chicago Century Of
Progress Exposition over six years
ago brought her the peculiar fame
she still enjoys.
Six years Of dancing at succeed
Ing expositions and In night clubs
and theaters have changed her but
slightly. Her mouse-blond hair is
the same. The years have added q
little more chest and hip measure
ment, little more cold allurement
to her gray eyes, and have SUBJ
tracted little from her almost "in-
visible" waist and her calf measure
ment, a little pinkness from cheeks
a little less full.
She says she is S feet tall, but
looks taller and she weighs ll3
pounds.
One reason Sally wants to be a
producer is so that she can dress up.
"You see," she said, about the
only time can wear a dress is when
I am going back and forth from
work.
Il can't do my dance all dressed
up. When can I dress?
With my waist-1 haven't got a
waist, as you see-I could enjoy
these corsets they're wearing now.
Talk about an hour-glass figure

Hats have an odd attraction for
this entertainer who never has much
chance to wear them. She buys
from so to 100 year, when she. has
the money. She often buys hats OH
the heads of women patrons at
night clubs, between acts.
She once tied up trafiic on a San
Francisco street when she left her
car to buy hat off woman on the
sidewalk. The woman finally sold
Sally the hat.

Una lets the cook 60 on week ends

Southern corn bread and black

two dogs romp in the garden.
That Southern accent which
makes her screen voice so distinc-

cannot stand it and secretly frets
because she hadn't lost a trace of
it in all these Hollywood years.
She says she had only one movie

Saratoga" Incidentally, Una and
Jean were fast friends and played
together in many pictures.
One Of her favorite roles was in
