But no, there was Jennifer in her
estranged husbands arms. looking
at him with the old love light in
her eyes and saying:
Il love you! Oh, do. I love you,
I love you! Aren't you going to kiss
me?" Bob kisses her-"as long as

Director Cromwell said the scene
was a "dilly." "Those kids are
great performers" he added. We
thought they were better than that.
For an estranged couple with two
children who say they don't love
each other. any more after five
years of marriage, they had just
turned in the best acting per-
formances of the year.
Its really not so unusual Jen-
infer said later, We're still friends" "
But that's all she would say. Bob
had even less to say. She's a
swell girl" he said, changing the
subject. We didn't blame them for
not talking. 1t WAS embarrassing
The separation of Jennifer Jones
and Robert Walker left two studios
in an uproar. In fact, Hollywood
didn't even know they were mar
ried when Jennifer won the sanity
title role at goth Century-Fox in
"The Song of Bernadette" and Bob
was cast by M-G-M in the title role
of "See Here, Private Hargrove."
When news of the marriage and
their two children did leak out, the
studio gravely announced, I'VE are
not filming the life of Jennifer
Jones. We're filming the story of
Bernadette."
Next step was series of at
home pictures, with both studios
exploiting the "idyllic" home life of
Jennifer and Bob and their chill
dren. Meanwhile, Jennifer and
Bob were cast as young lovers who
become engaged as Bob goes to war
in "Since You Went Away"
FRONT OFFICE FUSS
Several weeks after the picture
started Jennifer announced, through
her attorney and Selznick, that she
and Bob had separated, and that
she would file suit for divorce.
Executives at both studios swal-
lowed their cigars. 1t was bad pub
licity fer both pictures.
Fourteen executives and their
attorneys Immediately rushed to
Jennifers home and descended up
on her like she'd just committed a
hatchet murder, Please, PLEASE,

ARTISTS HEARD IN
 JOINT RECITAL
Herta Simon, Greek Evans Sing at COncOrdia
 Hall

Herta Simon, dramatic soprano, was soloist Saturday night at a joint recital with Greek Evans, baritone, at Concordia Hall. Over three hundred attended and en- joyed the work of both artists. The recital was under the auspices of the Concordia Singing Society with which Miss Simon was formerly as- sociated and where she first estab- lished herself as singer of unusual talents.
 Mrs. Helen Heebner, well known local pianist, accompanied the sing CTS with taste and distinction, thus adding much to the work of tht artists.
 This was Miss Simon's second ap- pearance as soloist with the group and last season she was heard as soloist with the Civic Orchestra of Waterbury. She possesses a voice of extensive range, of great power and in her presentation she displays marked degree of musicianship Greek Evans, husband of Madame Henrietta Wakefield, well known vocal coach and teacher of Miss Simon, has an agreeable voice and gave nice performance in the numbers, Water Boy" Coin Home" the prologue to Leonca- valla's "Pagl1acci," Captain Strat- tons Fancy" and the commanding ''The Two GrenadierS"
 Miss Simon gave several dramatic numbers and she and MT. Evans were heard together in 'Tales of Hoffman" by Offenbach, and Mas cani'S "Cavelleria RuSticana".

IVAN-BORNE FASHIONS WIN MINERS FAMILIES BEST DRESSED" TITLE
By NKA Service

Holden, w. Va. Women in this tiny mining town = typical of dozens of communities in Pocahontas Val- ley bituminous coal fields logged out as any you'll see on fashionable avenues in big cities. The reason is van-borne fashions which carry the last word in style right up to their doors.
 Originated a year or so ago, this unique door-to-door service oper- ates from the nations fashion cen- Hters, supplies up-to-the-minute clothes to over 4,0O0 families of men, women and children. and is now a West Virginia institution.
 Remoteness from stores = many miners are also farmers and live 50 miles away from the collieries where they work = and gas-ra- tioning explain the success of this war-born service, which not only supplis dresses, suits, lingerie, hosiery and household accessories, but custom ?made tailor who drives the van, and dressmaker who accompanies him on his rounds.
 The dressmaker makes expert suggestions on alterations, giving women'S clothes a made-to-order look that could win them a best dressed" award. Because miners have the broadest shoulders, nar- rowest hips and best physique in this country, ready-made suits rarely will do, so the mems meas urements have to be taken and suits are made up in New York Cincinnati, or some other fashion center specializing in mems clothes

Holidays Mean

We're entering the holiday sea- son. So it's time to begin to think about extra good desserts. This amazing spiced and frosted angel food cake is something to dream about.
 Spiced Angel Food Cake
 One and one-half cups granulat- ed sugar, l cup pastry flour, 1-2 teaspoon allspice, 1-2 teaspoon cloves, 1-2 teaspoon nutmeg, IA cups egg whites. 1-8 teaspoon salt, l teaspoon cream of tartar, tea spoon vanilla, 1-2 teaspoon almond extract.
 Sift sugar and flour separately 3 times before measuring. Add half tho sugar to the flour and spices. Beat whites until stiff, add rest of sugar and beat lightly. Fold in the rest of ingredients. Beat lightly and pour into an ungreased loaf pan. Bake for 25 minutes in a slow oven (275 degrees F). Increase slightly and bake for 30 minutes in 8 moderately slow oven (325 degrees F). Invert pan until cake has cooled and then carefully remove it. Frost with quick Jelly Pastel Frost ing.
 Paste. Jelly Frosting
 One-half cup tart jelly, 1 egg whites and salt in a bowl over saucepan of hot water. Beat with rotary beater until Jumps disap- pear and jelly is smooth. Then re- move from over hot water and con- tinue beating until frosting stands in peaks. Spread over top and side of cake. This frosting does not become absolutely firm-cake must be served with fork. Nevertheless, this is a beautiful and delicious topping-especiaily for a delicate Angel Food.

Whenever the history of the American movie is discussed from this day on, the new picture at the Loew Poli Theatre will without question be an important factor.
 That picture is "An American Romance" which King Vidor has produced in Technicolor for Metro Goldwyn-M with Brian Don- levy and a brilliant newcomer, Ann Richards, in the leading roles, and such highly capable supporting players as Walter Abel, John Qua len and Horace McNally matching the stars performances.
 "An American Romance" is just that the of America, of its golden opportunities its sweep and grandeur, the rise of it industrial might-it is a movie which will bring you entertainment and with it a glow of pride. It is a drama, comedy and history.

 Quite by chance Mrs. Allen learn ed of another woman in the neigh borhood who also had the care of an aged mother. Mrs. Hooper had had a course in home nursing and regret ted that she could not use her knowledge and experience for the benefit of the community, in some kind of volunteer service.
 Mrs. Allen lay awake that night while she incubated bright idea The next day she went to see he1 neighbor, and together they work ed out 8 plan that enabled both women ot broaden their sphere o1 usefulness, and gave two lonely old ladies congenial companionship ano 8 new interest in life.

 Soon Mrs. Allen was back in the business world that she enjoyed. Be- fore she left each day she took hel mother over to Mrs. Hoper's home where she was well cared for all day. Although her failing sight kept her hands idle, her mental alertness ana her memories of books anc travels provided delightful enter tainment for her hostesses, ane made her a welcome guest.
 Mrs. Hooper found use for hel home nursing knowledge in pre- pairing the special diet that Mrs Aliens mother required, and 1T helping her to become familiar witf the house so that she could gel around safely without help. She fell that by releasing Mrs. Allen from home responsibilities she was con- tributing something tangible to the war effort.
