LAST TIMES TODAY JOAN BLONDELL In "Hold ' CITY BLUES" STARTS TOMORROW LnJ as the cocky broadcaster who blew the lid off the high hatters and loosed a vol cano of sen sations! FAMOUS PLAYS' OS L Br RORBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD. Taking a bow In the glory trail of a famous star has Its advantages as a means of put ting yourself be for t h public but it has Its drawbacks, too, as Qlenria F r r a 1 1 learned. Oltndi has Joined the ranks of those whose second attempt at Hollywood fame proved more suc cessful than the first. If you strain your memory you 'may recall Glenda mnd i is the blond girl who was Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.'s sweetheart in "Little Caesar." But the picture brought Edward G. Rob inson so much acclaim that other players In It were all but overlooked. It was her first attempt at screen acting, and nobody seemed inter eated. She returned to the stage. where one of her roles was In "Life Begins." When the movie of the same name was made from the play, Glenda was "discovered" all over again and signed for the same role In the movie version. Now her "second screen career" Is well launched, for .her outstanding work won a contract. By coincidence she Is playing now with Paul Muni, who had a similar experience, being returned to Holly wood favor by "8carface." Sylvia Sidney, Zlta Johann, Clark Gable( and Virginia Bruce (John Gilbert's bride), are others who were passed up by Hollywood only to become "finds" later. Maria Alba, the Spanish actress has found her role opposite Douglas Fairbanks In "Mr. Robinson Crusoe1 the key to a better career. Fairly well established In silent pictures, her inability to speak English rele gated her to Spanish versions almost exclusively until Fairbanks chose her for leading lady. Now she haa roles booked In advance. In Bngllsh ver sions. Producers reckon with the "girl In the Fairbanks" picture1 where they would not notice "tihat pretty girl who was stopped by talk lea too bad."
