News and Comment of the Night Clubs
BY the Spectator.
Mark o. Patent Office

What about Hollywood? What
would some of it's glamour boys and
girls ask a. mind reader if they had
a chance?
The Spectator found out the other
night at the Trade Winds, but oddly
enough, not from either Henry
Fonda or Robert Taylor who
watched the show from the ringside
With that same sort of interest they
used to work up on the screen for
gals like Vivian Leigh or Greta
Garbo. Imagine any one letting
such golden opportunity slip by?
Tsk! TSk! Gentlemen, you might
nave checked on next years Oscar
or even asked when you'll be trading
those uniforms for dinner Jackets.
AT any rate the Spectator did get
the loWdoWn on the cinema city
from Ber Mar. For that is where
the mind reader made his reputa-
ton. 1t seems he predicted every
thing from Barbara Hutton's mar
rage TO Cary Grant, to one of Cros-
by's nagS actually winning a race.
BY the way, it was Barbara Hut
tons own party where Ber Mar made
the prediction about Grant. He told
her the marriage would take place
within SIX months. She laughed at
the time.
Mickey Rooney was sitting at a
rlngSide table in a well known
Hollywood night spot wheY he saw
Ber Mar and invited him to the
table. Married to Ava Gardiner at
the time, Mickey wanted to know
what kind of father he would
make.
Il told him he would make a fine
papa Ber Mar said, "but that he
wouldn't be married to Ava"
OF all the people that Ber Mar
read for in Hollywood, his favorite
subject was Herbert Marshall.
There's a real guy" Ber Mar
commented, "also that Ronald Col
man. He's another swell fellow"
Colman wanted to know if he
would give up acting and go in for
producing. Ber Mar told him he
would stick to the acting end of the
business.
