Barrymore has been in a wheel

He traces his trouble. to a broken
leg, suffered in a fall from a horse
in 1915. This injury left his knee
stiff, causing him to limp. Then, in
1887, he tripped while working in
a picture and fractured his right
hip. The joint didn't heal suffi-
ciently to permit him to. walk with
out suffering almost unbeatable
pain.
He has also been too heavy all

pounds. He says the doctors tell
him he can walk again if he sheds

girl I was in love with"
Romero now Is Al. With the ex-
ception of Jimmy Stewart he is the
only top male actor in Hollywood
who never has married.
The girl Cesar wanted to marry
is dead. She perished in a fire
during the war while he was in the
service. Her daughter is now in
Hollywood. She's the image of hei
mother, Cesar says.
If this were Hollywood movie
Cesar would marry her and live
happily ever after. But this being
life, Cesar gave her a big party
instead, to celebrate her engage
ment-to another fellow.
Unlucky in love, Romero certainly
is very lucky in his work. For years
Cesar has been the "other" man In
his pictures. Now, in THE Blonde

wins the girl-and she's Betty
