Ann Knows
Answers on
Hollywood
BY ANN RUTHERFORD
AS told to Neal Rau

HOLLYWOOD, May 10.
/ TAKE a lot of kidding on my
Il home lot at M-G-M because
I've made it a point to learn
the answers to most of the
questions people ask about
Hollywood. Some say I've
even developed an information
Please" complex.
The kidding started when I
was invited for the second time
to be queen of the South Caro-
lima cotton festival. / was
tickled pink over the invitation
until / learned they particularly
wanted me because I seemed to
know the answers to all their
questions.
After thinking il over I was
still tickled pink and accepted.
Here are some of the brain
teasers they threw at me during
the festival. and during other
appearances I made around the
country.
South for Gable
Southern bellies wanted 70
know how many cups of coffee
Vivian Leigh drinks a day?
Whether her eyes are really
green? Whether Carole
Lombard visits Clark Gable on
the set? Did Clark Gable
ever give me that thrifty feel
ing? Would Gable see them
if they came to Hollywood?
How many times does Gable
shave a day? What does
Gable eat? Are Cables
dimples real? Boy, do those
southern girls go for Gable!
In Washington a pack of debs.
subdebs and sub-subdebs wanted
TO know what Hollywood glamour
girls would have that they
didn't have? Do brunettes
have as much chance as blondes?
Do you need brains? :.
Does a foreign accent intrigue
man? Do men really fight
over Marlene Dietrich? =. Is
it wise to be mysterious like
Carlo? :. Is a fur coat neces-
Sary.
New Workers Ask
Sophisticated New Workers
broke down and asked me
whether Joan Crawford kept
her old shoes? Did I have
my own latchkey? Is Judy
Garland allowed to wear low
cut evening gowns? How
does Norma Shearer keep her
hair shiny? What kind of
clothes does Charles Boyer's
wife wear. and does he select
them for her?
This sort of thing could go on
for hours, but the classic ques-
ton was hurled at me the other
day by a Los Angeles school,
girl when she and 300 of her
companions croSs-examined me
for an hour.
This girl all Of IS =.
piped up and asked:
DO sophisticated women APP
peal to Mickey Rooney"

Irene Sees Shows

At long last, Irene Dunno
finds herself with enough be-
tween-pictures time to take
vacation. She and her medico
spouse, DR.. Francis Griffin, have
flown to New York, where they
are taking in the new shows
and Irene is catching up on her
shopping. And if their plans
work out. they will spend part
Of their months holiday on a
South American cruise.
In all likelihood, Constance
Bennett will also spend her va
cation at home. Her recent
bridegroom, Gilbert Roland.
may soon be called for military
duty at either Fort Macarthur
or Camp Ord. So, in that case,
Constance will remain at home,
continue her work on the screen
and look forward to occasional
leaves of absence that will be
granted Private Rolandi
And so hope springs eternal
in the human breast" of stellar
Hollywoodites, as they watch
the picture schedules in the
production office. But, alas,
when Summer is ended many
Of them will sigh with Whittier:
"Of all sad words of tongue or
pen,
The saddest are these: 1T
might have been."
