Touch-up Rinse Aids Transition To Silvery Hair
BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

Gray-haired women who want to give Nature a whirl at their hair tinting job after they grow tired of masquerading under false colors have way out of their dilemma. In fact, they have a choice of two ways to get out.
 One way is to use darkening rinses after shampoos. If the dark rinse is chosen to match the dye color on the hair-moSt beauty shops have these rinses on hand a woman can keep her growing out locks a secret.
 For another way out, decide on a hair part, be faithful to it, and darken the grays as fast as they grow out with touch-up pencil. Keep up this subterfuge for three or four months, and reverse your part. Darker hair can thus be hid- den away underneath.
 Have hair trimmed often so as to crop off as much dyed length as you can spare. In no time at all, hair will be all-gray again and you'll be out of your predicament.

 was speaking wisely only under scored her youth.
 Age has nothing to do with a mans propensity for chasing after women. The man who has an eye for women when he is 20 has the same wandering eye at 60, if he is still hale and hearty.
 It is something such men never outgrow And, despite the ancient alibi, My wife doesn't understand me-" woman has little or nothing to do with whether or not her hlls- band wanders' from the straight and narrow path of marriage.
 The one-woman man stays that wa, whether his wife turns out to be jewel or dud.
 AGE IS IRRELEVANT
 And the born philanderer remains onN in spite of a good marriage, ap- preaching old age, or any number of disillusionining romantic experi- ences.
 So a girl can't bank on a hus- bands age as security against his ever straying from the marriage contract. She might just as well take her chances with a 24-year-old husband as with one who is GA.
 The only difference is that if he does happen to be 8 wanderer, the younger man will have more years in which to make his wife miserable while he carries on the chase.

The March issue of the Contract Bridge Forum, published in Los Angeles, was crowded with news about the eastern delegation to Bridge Week that has chartered a plane to fly to San Francisco on June 4. Another interesting fea- ture in the Forum was today's bridge hand, which involves the smother play" undoubtedly the rarest play in bridge and the hard est to recognize.
 Vests king of clubs wins the first trick, and it seems impossible to prevent him from making the diamond king-but this is the way to do it.
 The second club is trumped with and diamond six. Declared leads the queen of diamonds, then the jack, neither of which is covered by West. He goes over to dummy with the spade king and trumps the club jack.
 He cashes the balance of the spades and the ace and king of hearts, and throws East in the lead with the third heart.
 South now has the ten-nine of diamonds, dummy has the diamond ace and a small heart; West has the king-Seven of diamonds.
 When East leads a club or spade, it is trumped with the diamond nue and West is helpless. He mt | either under-trump with the seven or trump with the king of dia- monds, in which case dummy will over-trump with the ace and the last trick will be won with the dia- mond ten.

Hollywood's egotistical actors should be advised that Ann Sheridan has named the roosters on her Encino ranch in their honor Nominat- ed for the most-improved-actress- of-the-year award: Paulette God dard.
 Here's An Incident to demonstrate the facility with which Hollywood youngsters pick up the viewpoint of their elders. The other day at 20th Century-Fox, publicist noticed an eight-year-old girl amusing herself between scenes by modelling in clay, Learning that the moppet was a new discovery" the press agent de- cided to get a story. What are you making?" he beamed, placing a kindly hand on the little ones shoulder. The young artist" looked up and snapped: Fifty dollars day!"
 On The Subject Of viewpoints" it's amazing how they can be al- tered by sudden change of for tune. During the past year, with money rolling into movie coffers in unheard-of profusion, one Filmville celebrity after another has under taken sports promotion as sideline business. Racetracks, professional football teams, hockey Stadia, bowl ing palaces etc., are being projected in wholesale lots and always, when you scan the list of packers, you will find screen stars and studio bosses heading the promotions. The chuckle lies in the fact that just about six years ago, when the de- pression had reduced picture profits to a dangerous low, Hollywood was screaming to high heaven that the cause of its woes was to be found 1 in sports events which kept fans away from theatres!:
 Herbert J. Yates, proxy of Repub- lie Studios, is as noted for his ln- sistence on production economies as Red" Barry, one of his ace cowboy stars, is for his voraciouS appetite. Recently Yates visited the location where Barry's current picture is be- ing filmed, and stayed for dinner with the troupe. After watching Red devour a dozen oysters and two big steaks-all at the studios ex- pense-the boss tapped him on the shoulder. Before you order des- sert," he said, affecting his most terrifying scowl, reflect that it's not too late to replace you in this picture. At the rate you're going, your food bill is going to be the big gest item on the budget!"

 The boulevard was really crowd- ed :. in fact, l kept hitting pedestrians faster than the lawyers could shove 'em in front of us.

HOILYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD, play 6-With Joan Leslie apparently determined to press her suit for cancellation of her Warner Brothers contract, and with studio bosses equally set on lighting her action, there's excel lent prospect for another of those long-drawn legal battles in which everyone excepting the lawyers, of eoUrse-will emerge loser.
 Miss Leslie's box-office standing. none too great as it is, is ceNain so be impaired by prolonged ab- sence from the screen-juSt as Olivia de Havilland's prestige suf- fered when she engaged in an al- most identical court battle with the Warner Brothers and lost, in the process, the better part of three working years. No actress, great or 1r small, can easily afford to be out of the public's sight for any ap- lreciable length of time.
 If, after a year or two of legal ikirmiShing, the Warner Brothers succeed in holding Miss Leslie to her contract, her value to them will be decreased in direct ratio to the member of movie-goers who have forgotten her. They. will have to oacktrack and redo much of the ], exploitation work already done in her behalf On the other hand if she comes out the winner, Joan will have to regain the lost ground through her own efforts. She may find, just as Miss de Havilland has ound, that the job is no sinecure.

The play, at the Wardman Park

tailed to point out to his actors and
actresses, for one thing. that it is
t reasonable to assume that there
might be those in the audience lust
as anxious as those on the stage to
| hear what is said He also has al
lowed Dick Sykes to confuse Mr..
Shaw's Henry Higgins rather effec-
lively. Mr.. Sykes is considered in
those circles to be quite a depend
able performer, but IN this current
instance he has been taken with a
severe attack of the "cutes." Fur
thermore, unless audibility was even
lower than it seemed Saturday night
Mr.. Sykes has been permitted by Mr..
JARVIS to portray phonetics expert
who twice notes that some one is
preSump- tOo-uS.
There is still Mr.. Shaw, however.
His story of a cockney flower girl
made a lady" on a bet by a scien-
tlSt in language is one full of both
wit and good sense. The emphasis
is on the former, but it always rests
on the solid basis of the latter
There also. as was noted before. is
Miss Murphy. Her Eliza is created
out of both serious thought and in
stinctive understanding. it is evi-
dent, and it might even be safe to
predict a career in the professional
theater for her.
In the supporting cast John Pooley
Wright makes the best of a couple
of moments as Alfred Doolittle,
Eliza's poor father, whose life is
ruined when an inheritance drives
him to middle class morality and
responsibility. It is quite fat part,
of course. Alfred being the voice for
the more SardoniC of the Shavian
comments on life as it has been
arranged. The others might be
called adequate and probably would
be encountered in a high school
spring play. H. M
