Marriage Won't Change His Plans
Why Should an Actor Differ From Any Other
Professional Man, Franchot Tone Asks
By Vern Haasland,
Vide World News

"The fellow who wrote that was
just trying to louise me up" he as
serts.
"If 1t were true, what would I be
working for? I'm self-supporting,
but I'm not rich.
Someone else wrote once that
my wealthy mother was dangerously
Ill. I suggested that she wire back
that she wasn't seriously i'll and
she wasn't wealthy, but that she was
my mother"
Tone claims one real distinction
for himself and Jean.
I'VE live in Benedict Canyon, and
are among the few persons who can
claim Hedy Lamar as their land
lady.
Unfortunately, she sends some
one else around to collect the rent"

HOLLYWOOD.
Franchot Tone is a married man
again, but wedding bells, he says,
haven't changed his plans.
He'll keep on being movie actor
as long as he can, and he'll live
here or in New York or wherever
his work takes him.
Tone escaped from swastika- deco
rated policemen on the Highly Ir-
regular" set, looking healthy and
well-fed, long enough to soliloquize
a bit.
why should marriage change the
plans Of an actor any more than 1t
would affect a lawyer or doctor or
some other professional men?" he
asked.
II want to keep busy in pictures
and do a play now and then If it's
really good.
A Shaky Start.
"As to my wife's plans, I can't
say. You'll have to ask her. I
think she wants to keep on work.
ing, though"
Jean Wallace. whom Tone mar
ried shortly after her eighteenth
birthday last october, says, I'm
very definitely going to keep on
with my career"
That career got of to a shaky
start when M-G-M removed her
from "Ziegfeld Girl" upon discover
ing that she was a minor. How
ever, accompanied by school
teacher, she was able to work in
louisiana Purchase" and was one
of three dancers in its chorus of
IL to win a Paramount contract.
Jean met Tone while dancing in
Earl Carroll's night club here. soon
after winning a Carroll beauty con-
test in Chicago.
She's a striking blond-"another
Jean Harlow" her studio says. That
description probably will handicap
her. She starts work in her second
picture next month.
No Reputation to Maintain.
Career trouble, In part, caused the
split between Tone and first wife,
Joan Crawford. Joan devoted con-
siderably more time to study and

ner. Later plans for the banquet
were revived, and it was announced
that in any event awards would be
presented, with or without cere-
mony.
''It would be too bad to deprive
the award winners of the thrill of
the banquet" says Ginger.
THAT dinner last year was the
biggest moment of my life. I was
so excited I couldn't feel anything
I was just paralyzed. But it was
wonderful"
The greatest thing that the stat
uette award has meant to her, says
Ginger, is the self-assurance it
brought.
Fears and doubts still trouble her
at times, she admits, but they have
lessened in the shadow of her priced

Furthermore, the Garbo face
which for these many years has
avoided all makeup, is now flaunt-
ing new type of Upstick in china
pink dull finish!
Dressmaker Valentino, a blond
Russian who looks somewhat like
Carlo, is giving out with paens
of ecstasy regarding her new film
actress client.
"Garbo is the person Of this era
who will be initiated in her clothes.
Just as a few years ago the Garbo
high cheekbone and the Garbo hair
set a new beauty fashion" VAL
entina stated rapturously to this
reporter. She added that Carlo
was fruitful soil on which to plant
chic because "she has an innate
simplicity and a good feeling about
clothes and her own beauty
Even Turns to Color.
The dressmaker and her client
have met somewhere in the middle
of their respective ideas on dress.
Garbo, who only yesterday did not
care two buttons about what she
had on, insists on gowns that will
wear q long time, with no fussy
trimmings. not too light Ito save
cleaning bills). And for comfort
there must be large armholes.
At one time you couldn't put
Greta into anything unless it were
dark gray or brown. She is now
poisoning forth in navy blue, a
golden shade and pale-coral red!
The most exotic gown purchased
by Garbo from Valentino is a skim
tight, from bosom to hip, navy wool
jersey dinner dress, with a round,
high neck, widened but unpadded
shoulders, and a straight, slim skirt
that finishes 6 or 7 inches above
the ankles. This. by the way, is
the newest dress length. No jewels
are worn with the dress, but round
her neck Cargo ties a mans hand
kerchief! At the waistline there is
q place for a fresh flower. Her
shoes are simple navy pumps. G'd
like to be in Hollywood when Greta
steps out in this one)
Among the several shirtwaist-ef-
feet dresses bought by Garbo from
the Russian is one in a blue, dull,
silk crepe, with wide armholes, with
a slight inward dip at both sides

Meredith Signed

Burgess Meredith has been signed
by Paramount to star in Black Cur
tain," film adaptation of the Cornell
Wollrich novel, which william
Clemens will direct.
Meredith, who gave brilliant per-
formances in "Winterset," Tom,

denly reverts to a normal condition
and discovers he is being pursued

Gaxton Sought

Paramount is in negotiations with
William Gaxton, who co-starred
with Victor Moore In the Broadway
version of Louisiana Purchase" to
have the stage star appear on the
screen with Moore In Are You a
Mason?" the comedy classic which
the studio will produce soon. The
inspiration to have Gaxton make

latest Gaxton-Moore show on
Broadway.

ances said she allowed her interest
in acting to crowd out her interest

Jeans friends point out that, un-
like Joan, she has no screen reputa-

she can much more easily blend
her career with marriage.
Tone says he's still trying to live

low regard for the movies.

 Take that back hall, for instance. An insipid looking spot it was, most ly doors with just one decent wall space Nellie papered it with silver paper Git didn't take so much be- cause of the small amount of wall space. so she could afford metallic paper even at the higher per-roll figure). Then she painted the wood work don't gasp-brilliant Chinese red. And did that nondescript little room sit up and take notice! It really acquired personality and poise all in the same breath and was literally furnished" with col or, which was important since there really wasn't much space for fur niture.

In that way each felt sure of two chances for a rabbit dinner to one chance for each of the others. If Old Man Coyote saw that wink, he didn't let them know it. He just sat down and politely waited for the others to decide which sides they would watch. When at last they had agreed, all four pretend ed to give up the hunt for Peter and started off as if they really intended to leave Peter alone.
 And all the time underneath the big pile of brush poor Peter Rabbit sat with his heart going pit-a-pat listening with all his might to hear what he could of Old Man Coyotes dark plot He couldn't hear it all, but he heard just enough to make him feel sure that when they pre- tended to give up and go away they really had done nothing of the kind. What should he do? What could he do?
