the radio as follows

drives along the shore. In fact, they had no
more reality than ghost.
Mr. Welles has played the part Of ghost
On the radio he used 10 be a shadow But in
private life he is too too solid flesh, as he
effectively proved a couple of years ago when
he fell down a flight of stairs and acquired a
vacllating vertebra
THE injury did not condemn him to a wheel
chair but il did condemn him TO Hollywood
for the duration, under a Az draft classih-
cation. There, he found II possible TO totter
around at least enough 90 WOO. He could
kiss, he could take moonlight drives; if he
were careful he could even glide a step or two
on a nightcub floor-activities wholly out of
the question for poor Victors ghost.
Judging from the movies and popular fic-
ton, the little drama in which these three,
Rita, Mr.. Welles and Victor's ghost found
themselves cast is typical of the times.

Edward Judson, whom she married while still

AS Mrs. Judson she went everywhere, but

Hollywood gossip that he was her off-the-set
director, handling her affairs with the studio
relieving her Of the necessity Of making the
smallest decisions
ONCE he is a man who knows the score, this
y unstintcd service of his was invaluable to
Rita at the start. She wouldn't be the
