BEAUTY'S A CHARM by HARRIET HINSDALE CHAPTER XVII "There," Jim Smith said as he drew back to observe the effect. "Just a little more of this sun-tan powder and youU do." Lucy Lee stared at her reflection. "Oh, do you really think sol; I I look so queer. Why, even the stuff on my mouth Is brown I " She thought herself a hideous object in these varying shades of tan and brown, even to her lips. The make-up man chuckled. . "Don't you worry, girlie. YouH screen like a million, take It from , me. I ought to know, I've made up , thousands in my timel" "Of course ifs all right, i Lucy Lee," Pearl broke in. V? You have to get nsed to it, that's all. How do you think IT! screen, Mr. Smith?" He regarded her critically; "You going to take a test, too?" "They want me jta," Pearl lied glibly. "But I'm not at all certain . I care about it. Perhaps some other time, when I am more in the mood. With all my stage experience a test Ss really hardly necessary, is it? Except for the photography, I sup- . pose." , , . - : 'Well, I don't know. People like "Yes, I I reckon it does," she faltered.. All the big studios have voice ex perts to iron out the rough spots, make ladies voices more ladylike and gentlemen's voices more mascu line! I am going to send you to our trainer a delightful chap. You'll like him and he knows his stuff." Pearl always sat through the en tire lesson, keeping very quiet and listening attentively. She began to imitate the teacher's intonations, even his figures of speech and the turn of certain phrases, in her own conversation. A marked improve ment in her diction and vocabulary became increasingly evident. Don Ames spoke of it one night when they were dining and dancing at the Cocoanut Grove, It was Ne ville Preston's little party of four and at the moment the host and f earl were on the noor, weaving through the crowd in a languorous tango which held their lithe bodies closely entwined. "I take off my chapeau to Pearl, Ames remarked as they watched the dancers drift by. "A couple of months ago when I first saw. her down there in Carterton, she was Kathryn Hepburn and Harriet! just a too-fat dame pushing thirty Hilliard took tests before they got contracts," Mr. Smith replied dryly. . gathering up his cosmetics and re placing them carefully in the black tin box. "It's kind of a custom around the studios, you might say.' He was at the door now. "If you need any more help with your make- op. Miss Carter, just give me a call. Good luck, and don't be nervous. - A month later and it would have appeared to a possible observer from Mars that Lucy Lee and Pearl . Carter had become authentic and rather Important denizens of the film world. They reported to the studio each day, usually in the late morning, which gave them about an hour to put in there before hunching and not doing anything about either calamity. Now look at her: Fifteen pounds slimmer and ten years younger, wearing her clothes like the best of 'em and with a broad A that Merle Oberon herself wouldn't be ashamed of." "Pearl is awfully clever and am bitious," Lucy Lee agreed. "Ill say she is," replied Ames emphatically. ' Wonder if the kid doesn't savvy what goes on ' between her step mother and Preston, he continued to himself. Is is possible anyone can be so dumb after a few weeks in this town? Everybody is talking about them around the studio and it's got the gossips jittering. They figured that of course Lucy Lee was hia girl and they can't dope this other doll out. But migosh, it's easy it on at the studio cafe or. perhaps at Sardi'a or the Brown Derby.

But no sooner did the story appear to be "set," as they called it than something happened to spoil it alL f Either the star raised objections 'She says her own isn't distin guished enough." "Sure, I know. I'm going to help her pick a classy moniker. She wants me to be her publicity man, too, about hia part or somebody thought Ames grinned.

Trom the Cocoanut Grove they oci Queer tricks, you know, . were going down ta Neville Pres ton's cottage at Malibu Beach, for the week-end. Lucy Lee had been there several times before and she oved it There was the delightful house itself, more luxurious than any beach cottage she . had ever imagined. There were warm sands, soft breezes, and stretching to the horizon, the glorious Pacific While the background were the tawny Malibu Mountains, rugged yet ac cessible for hiking or riding. It was thrilling to know that in almost every house along the beach dwelt some celebrity. True, seeing them playing about on the sands they appeared no different from ordinary folk and often she was dis tinctly disappointed. But that feel ing was quickly repressed. What if many-of the people she had seen In pictures usually were much more commonplace in real life than on the screen? She told herself it wasn't nice to be critical of them, especially when they were so friendly to her. Tonight as they drove down Wfl- shire Boulevard to Santa Monica, Lucy Lee's thoughts dwelt on how fortunate she was. Though of course there were some things she wished could be different. Daddy Carter, for instance.. She often didn't see him for several days. He had fallen into the habit of not getting up until very late and usually he had gone to bed when she and Pearl came home at night from the theater or wherever they may . have been. She was afraid Daddy Carter was drinking quite a little, too. He said his constitution needed tonic. Often at dinner he hardly, uttered a word and his hands trembled. Nerves, he said it was. Then there was Clyde. She had not had a letter from Clyde in weeks. Perhaps it was that long since she had written him. She could not re member, exactly. The days flew by so rapidly, it was all so exciting, there never was time. Anyway, it was hard to explain this thrilling new world to Clyde because he did not know the people and so of course he could not possibly understand them. There was a great glowing blaze of driftwood in the living-room fire place, when they reached the cot tage, and an attentive Filipino boy to serve drinks as they sat before the fire with the soothing sound of the surf In their ears. Preston ad mitted he was dog tired weary after weeks of battling over stories and production. But on Monday the picture was to begin and. there was a nice little part ia it for Lucy Lee. He smiled at her and she thought' how kind he was. She no longer felt terrified at the thought of appear ing in a picture. She knew he would tell her exactly what to do. One only had to follow the director's in structions V.'It waa -really very simple.' .. ; . : "How about yon, Pearl ?" Preston continued. "Do you still think you'd like to do extra work as a native woman in the Algerian sequence? It means dark make-up, black wig and so on, you know." ; . - "Wait till you see the swell pub licity I'm gonna put out On Pearl." Ames told him. "Supreme will be begging her to sign a contract, and so will all thai others. Why don't you take her on for a "bit" in your picture, Instead of only a lousy extra job. Eh, Fear IT" Pearl was smiling a little as she rose. "It would be marvelous, of course. But dont let's talk about it now. Everybody's sleepy. Ifs three o'clock. Why not go to bed? Lucy Lee here, cant keep her. eyes open." -. - (To be continued) ' mm a ml H tot tmmm Swi. tea Princeton Upsets Navy, Great Final To Losing Season PRINCETON,! N. J., Nov. 20 (JP)At the tag end of a sorry sea son a football team was born to day at Palmer stadium. It was a Princeton football team which, already soundly thrashed by Cornell, Darthmouth, Harvard and Yale, turned on what the experts thought was to have been another tormenter and gave Navy a 26-6 pasting.

O'Hara said he based his fig ure on the filings for more than 15 years. He predicted that the average of previous years would carry through the 1938 elections. Mustangs Defeat UCLA With Rally MEMORIAL COLISEUM, Los Angeles, Nov. 10. -(IP)- Southern Methodist university pitched its aerial circus in the Coliseum to day and played a brilliant 26 to 13 performance for the benefit of the Bruins of University of Califor nia at Los Angeles and 35,000 spectators. V Outplayed and completely over shadowed at the outset by the Bruins' dusky combination of Kenny Washington and Wcodrow Wilson Strode, the Mustangs from Texas began exploding late in the second period and didn't stop un til the third. (DM CURTIS The "roar of the crowd" in spires halfbacks to make 80-yardTl runs, kindles a spark that causes the batsman in a pinch to smack out a home run, spurs the star forward to let fly with the how itzer shot that wins the game. At least that's the theory. Personal experience, though limited, leads us to suspect none of the boys ever hear the noise, once the game is under , way. In tennis, boisterous ap plause is frowned upon. Mild hand clapping after the point is permitted. In golf, a whisper or a 'cough while the player is swinging is supposed to ruin everything. Deathlike silence is the rule. Last Sunday Babe Ruth's ad mirers from the Bronx yelled "Knock er out of the lot, Babe" and "Clout one for me, Babe" while the renowned bambino was taking his backswlng at the Fresh Meadow Country club during his match with John Montague et al. George Herman had heard those shouts before and probably , they didn't bother him much. Anyway he turned In a card of 32 tor the eight holes they managed to play. Shouted encouragement while swinging wasn't the biggest han dicap; there were flocks of hu manity all over the course at all times. It was too much for the steely-nerved Montague, who took two fives and a six and picked up on one hole. Babe Didrikson was the star of the show, turning in a better score than the ex-mysterious phenom. The two Babes won the match, what there was of it. ' But the interesting question , is just why strict silence is ordinarily imposed, by custom and admonition, In the inime dite vkinity of a golfer while in the act of doing bis stuff. It does take concentration, no doubt about that. But only rela tively more than 1 required of . the pitcher or the batsman In baseball. We've hunch that custom Is nine-tenths of It. The drainage ditch that Joe Herberger has been excavating along the south edge of the ninth fairway, out at the Salem Golf club, is now complete and Joe thinks the water will! stay off of there this year. Likewise,, In ad vance of a volume of water which would make wading through the gully on No. 12 uncomfortable, the new . bridge there has been floored not as substantially as it will be later, but It's possible to walk across Instead of down through. The fairways have been mowed again in spite of the diffi culties, and they're keeping the greens in good condition, weather considered. Sweeney Tells It iu nuruwesiern Notre Dame Wins 7-0 With "Aid of Break on Punt Blocked Near; Goal EVANSTON. 111., Nov. 20-&)- oweeney manes a.iojsius awee ney told it to Northwestern to-" uay. The Fighting Irish of Notre Dame conquered their Big Ten arch rival. Northwestern, 7 to 0, in freezing, windswept Dyche sta dium and it was Sweeney, hero of Notre Dame's triumph over Navy and Minnesota, who scored the single touchdown, result of a second quarter "break." It was Sweeney also who contributed de fensive gems which helped keep the desperate Wildcats, playing their final game of the season, from scoring. The bit of Irish good fortune which led to the only score of a bitterly fought battle that kept the greater part of a crowd of 45,000 seated until i the finish, came when a Northwestern line man was guilty of holding as Bernie Jefferson, negro halfback star, attempted to punt from deep In his own territory. The first kick went out of bounds on his 40 but the play was called back, and Northwestern penalized 15 yards to its seven. Again Jefferson attempted to punt, but It was blocked and Sweeney snatched the ball and stepped over the goal line. Andy Puplis placekicked the point.
