HOLLYWOOD Jetts Ooudal. who was once described In a court suit by her then employer Cecil B. De- Mllle as a "cocktail ot emotions. won the legal right to be "temper aments!" ss a result of that battle. The court held that an actress" "tem perament" was part of her equipment. It was a fine victory, although oy coincidence. Jetta never worked Im portantly sgaln. She has been hap. ptly married for some years now to Harold Grieve, prominent Interior decorator, and she works wtth her husband at his profession. Not long ago one of her former .turtle associates, with whom she had tangled more than once, encoun tered her and was greeted most oleasantlv. Jetts's friendly remarks. as reported by him: "It Is so much fun not being In pictures any more I can enjoy life and Just think! I don't have to be mean about any thing I" An Old Story It would be Interesting to trace the rise of the schools of stellai thought that holds a star, to be successful, must be "difficult." It certainly antedated Jctta Ooudal, for some of Hollywood's best tem nerament tales reached circulation In the period from 1916 to 1020 wlien stars were first feeling their oats. The director. Joseph von Stern berg, was a disciple. If not tne mgn priest, of the theory. Joe had made quickie called "salvation num- ers" whiqi won tne auppon, 01 quick-growing colony's Intelligent sia." Even before that, showman that he was. he hsd made It his business to be as spectacularly in sulting as possible to the right people. I've Just made live new enemies he once chuckled, confidentially, to some cronies. It was Pola Negri's own Idea, ap parently, as she came before Joe. Her battles with Gloria Swanson be came Hollywood legend: Pola's cam paign, as she admitted privately when pressed, was logical. 'There are many girls In Hollywood prettier than Negri so Negri must De 011-ferentt" But Marlene Dietrich, who can be as sweet as pie when she wants to be. undoubtedly took Instruction direct from her mentor, von Stern berg. That director set her off beautl- fully at a studio luncheon present ing her to the assembled press "Miss Dietrich," he remarked In ef fect. "Is not only beautiful but Is far more Intelligent than anyone here present." Just Reputation Miss Dietrich's popularity or lack of It with many members of the rnrresnondent corns, especially the feminine contingent, may be said to date from that moment, but in subseauent years she has shown her self to be an apt pupil. Marlay-nah's not mean she Just bss the reputa tlon of being "difficult," which prob ably Is truly part of "glamour." Slmone Simon came from Prance with certain Ideas of her own about how "difficile" a foreign star should be, and Immediately began living up to them. Later, repentant, she con flded to Intimates that she had been Insolred by the advice of another foreign star and Hollywood said. "Dietrich?" The Hollywood Spirit Katherlne Hepburn has some rep utation for being "hard to get along with." In several contacts I've never found her so, but then one robin never mado a spring or a reputation. Katie put on the denim overalls and tomboy act when she first arrived partly as a "show," partly to hide nervousness, partly to enter Into the "spirit of Hollywood." Her later re fussls to aUow visitors on her sets sprsng from a conviction that she does better work when unobserved. The "be hard to handle" theory, il course, Is proved fallacious by nany of our most successful stars, ho get ahead by being themselves :id being darn good sctors and act resses. People like Wamer Baxter Ronald Colman. Joan Crawford. Bette Davis, Irene Dunne, Olnger Rogers all of them rather well es tablishedare not devoid of occas- i lonal flashes of "temperament" but they manage to be consistently hu man and regular people for all that.

Ye Poets Cornei Crater Lake Emblem of a land's travail. Whoso forces died to give It birth, Its depth less waters still unite Their fount with the paternal earth. The record of Its origin There scrolled In eloquence sublime, Is witness to the seal of God Upon the handiwork of time. The tints of countless skys and nights Are mirrored In its waters blue But from what magic spring these hues Its silent pigments give no clue The snows of myriad ogee gone Are blended in Its azure sheen Reflecting from Its regal depths The royal splendor of a Queen. The rolling Cascades form the crown And forged the setting for this gem. It nestles In their artistry. A limpid, heaven-kissed diadem. It beggars Monarch and the sage To find Its peerage In their purse Or with their faltering tongues to lisp The wonders of the Universe. Nature has set its beauteous walls In sheer determination high As though their rugged ramparts seek To form a union with the sky. One stands upon ltd crested rims Where vast Creation forces trod And needs but little faith to see The Jewelled footsteps of a God. Freeman Chase Leslie. By William VoT.affln (A. P. Feature Writer.) LONDON The Joe Kennedys think they have licked their own private British housing problem. That's pretty good for the Ken nedys since the ambassador's family (as nearly everyone In England and America, la now well aware) Includes nine children. And the British public not to mention the British mon arch haa shown a lively Interest In how they all get along. When petite, black-hatred Mrs. Kennedy sailed last March from New York, she sighed. "I don't suppose any place will be big enough." When I called the other day. t found that her worst feara had ma terialised, and then had been dis pelled. Only Et(ht Bedrooms Although the ambassador's official residence at 14 Prlnce'a Gate has eight bedrooms, It was Indeed too small. But Mrs. Kennedy explained: "We have taken a cottage In the country which should take care of the overflow unless the boys bring all of Harvsrd with them." . Another help will be the tours the children are going to take. The am bassador says he doesn't imagine the family ever will be home all at once Already well-traveled, the younger children especially are enthusiastic sightseers They stood outside Buck ingham palace one day and photo graphed the changing of the guard while mama and papa were ln.df chatting with their Brltalnnlc ma- ; Jesties. ! . Talked About Children That formal interview went off wHh j Informal ease, j "They're very charming and net- i ural," Mrs. Kennedy told me. And what did they talk e-bout? "We just discussed the children The ambassador said the children of the royal family were much lees spoil ed than some of the Kennedy chil dren." " The Kennedy children have helped the Kennedys walk right-Into the cir cle of British interests. On their arrival, newspaper head lines read : "Kids rake Over The Embassy. "King Oeorge Asks To See Ken nedy's Nine Children." "Queen 'Talks Babtea With Mrs Kennedy." Of the ambassador one London pa per said; . "The new American am.bassador'will be a great success. , . . His reddish hair and his smile are completely dis arming. What Is more he possesMs that excellent sense of good-humored Irony which U the spice of Amer ican humor." Of Mrs. Kennedy another writer said: "She's still glrllsh-looklng ... but you see at once there's no ambasso- dorlal situation likely to come her way with which she could not cope." Shoots Hole-In-One At press conferences here. Kennedy cock his feet on the desk. Like h's recent predecessors, he acorns knee breeches for long trousers when he attends court. Hardly had be got rid of his sea legs when he did the "right" thing In a magnificent way by shooting a hole In one at the Stoke Poges golf course. Mrs. Kennedy presented daughters Rosemary and Kathleen at court re cent ly. After we had gone over the list of names and whereabouts of the chil dren (the two eldest boys are Still at Harvard), I asked Mrs. Kennedy fin ally If she had any rule for raising a large family. "I am loathe to answer that ques tion." said she, "until I see how my own family turns out." Mrs. Kennedy keeps a card Index on her family's health. Neatly set down and filed away are faintly data on who has been Inocu lated, who has had his tonsils out, who has had his eyes examined and who needs to go to the dentist. A big family is fun, she says. Helping her axe the family gov erness and a nurse whom she brought along, as well as a small staff ot serv ants. The English servant problem, traditional headache for newly-arrived Americans, waa solved for her by embassy attaches.
