On The Side v. ouithv (Distributed by King Futures Svadicate, Inc.) The women of Pasadena have launched an extremely bitter campaign against the pollution of the atmosphere of their city by that thing called "smog." It was the women's clubs of Pitts burgh, Pa., that launched the highly successful campaign for the elimination of "smoke" from the so-called "smoky city." When the gitls get really pro voked they certainly can battle an evil in bitter fashion. How right Thomas Dunn English was when he wrote: ' When greater perils men environ. Then women show a front of iron. And gentle in their manner, they Do bold things in a quiet way. Torrid Kiss The film titled "Notorious" has been revived. That is the picture in which the most tor rid kiss in cinema history is de picted by Ingrid Bergman. Cary ' Grant is on the receiving end. Can't say just how long this scene of heated osculation lasts but it usually leaves the custo mers gasping. Busy Corners What is the busiest corner in this country? Not as to passing traffic but as to business con ducted on the spot. That's a query received that I can't an swer. However, it was once claimed a restaurant owned by Charlie Weeghman served 35, 000 customers daily at the cor ner of Dearborn and Madison Streets, Chicago. Ever hear of a busier corner than that? Asking Queries from clients. Q. Who introduced the song titled "But ton Up Your Overcoat?" A. Zel ma O'Neal in the musical show titled "Follow Thru." Q. Was Ahe celebrated Parisian artist model known as Kiki a blonde or a brunette? A. She was a blue-eyed brunette. Incidentally, that is the most interesting type of brunette. Or, so say our horses and women experts. Q. How is the word vaudeville pro nounced? Is it a two syllable or three syllable word? Dictionar ies disagree. A. Preferred is vaudeville as a two syllable word pronounced "vod-vil." By Wire If from a young couple, mar ried about a year, you received a telegram reading: "Isaiah IX; 6," what would you decide it meant? If you don't know I really shouldn't tell you. Be bet ter if-you had to look it up. However, I'll give you a break this time. It would mean the young couple had a blessed event and the child was a boy. The Biblical passage of Isaiah IX; 6 is "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given." Suggestion ' - Wfiy doesn't some progressive restaurateur list on his menu "Coffee a la Talleyrand" The name, of course being inspired by Tallyrand's claim as to what constitutes a good cup of coffee. That is: "Black as the devil, hot as hell, pure .as an angel and sweet as love." Passing By Clark Griffith. Venerable ma jor league baseball celebrity. The best pitcher ever born in Stringtown, Mo., began his ma jor league career in 1891. At that time the pitching distance was only 50 feet. Can you say as quick as a fifth of a flash what the present pitching dis tance it? If not, cease calling yourself a well-informed sports fan. Sidelights Joan .Bennett has had three children, each by a different husband. That's unusual but far from the record. Jacqueline Montgaste of . Paris was the mother of seventeen children by fourteen different husbands!
