Charley Olive super-dub event, am

higher in the bowling ranks Satur-
day when he bids for the cham--
pionship of the seventh annual Ollie
Pacini Near-Star Sweepstakes at
Northeast Temple. If he can i'm
prove trifle on his 877 score rolled
at the Queen Pin it's a safe bet the
good looking Diamond Cab League
roller will be somewhere around the
top.
The seven game tournament
named for the manager of the
Temple drives and one of the great
est duckpin shooters ever, promised
to lure a sparkling field of more
than 60 pinmen whose averages are

Kreamer in 1887 and Lindsey Scott
in 1888.
Keeping his eye peeled for hap

the left side lines. The drivers of
the cars emitted the usual polite
circumstances, but the man paid
them no heed. "A truck stood watt

the truck, so to speak, caroned of,
skidded a ways and finally came to
q standstill on the pavement. He
was doing well enough up to that
point Then the cop caught up with
him, saw the man was dazed and
not quite conscious of what was said
to him. After all, there's a situation
where you need all your wits about
you, unless, Of course, you're Irish.
Well, you may have just one more

WOMAN,S REALM
Clarifying
Yourself
b AHcia Hart


NEA Service star Writer
Mention q famous stage or screen
star and inevitably someone win
say, "You wouldn't think 50, but
she's forty" or IT know she must
be fifty at least"
Whereupon all exclaim that she
certainly doesn't look her age and
on 60 to wonder how she manages
to keep up.
Everybody realizes that actress
es spend more time and money try
ing to stay young looking than the
average woman can or does. To the
actress, maintaining supple, slen-
der figure and young looking hair
complexion and hands are part OF
her career, not simply an amusing
pastime.
We know, too, that an actress
makes it her business to sleep more
hours out Of every twenty -four
than the majority Of women do.
She may not go to bed until one
or two a. M, but she seldom gets
up before noon or. after. Even a
young actress on her way up
doesn't usually try to see man
ager or an agent before eleven or
noon. For one thing, she isn't
likely to find a theatrical office
open early in the morning.
Hollywood stars who have to be
on the lots very early in the
morning 60 to bed very early at
night.
DONE WITH MIRRORS?
NOT QUITE!
In addition to her beneficial
habits, the successful actress goes
in for supervised exercises, body
messages, foot treatments, superior
facials. Furthermore, as time goes
on, she employees a few tricks to
conceal the more obvious signs of
age.
She wears dresses which conceal
her neck, or interesting scarfs,
crossed high over her throat. She
wears brimmed hats which throw
shadows across uncomfortable lines
around her eyes. She prefers brace
lets to earrings. They draw atten-
ton away from her face instead Of
toward it. If her upper arms are
too thin, she sticks to long sleeved
dinner suits instead of decollete
evening gowns. If her hands are
no longer youthful, she eschews at
tention-getting rings and scarlet
nail polish.
