I k - FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, March 20, I95S , , n ' film1 tBhrV-J SPRING IS HERE! The first day of spring (Mar. 21) finds Roberta Browne popping out with sun umbrella and bath ing suit on a San Francisco beach. Roberta was dubbed Queen of Redwood Empire (why not empress?) by resort owners for the occasion. If you can get your eyes past Roberta, that's the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Failures Syndicate, Inc.) line the awect knowledge I possess. That she I love la mine. All nature throbs with happlnesa And wears a face divine. The woods seem greener than they were. The skies are brighter blue. The stars shine clearer and the air Lets finer sunlight through. Charles Mackay. Hoagy Carmichael is still re ceiving about $14,000 a year from "just one of his hit songs, "Stardust." How right that man was who said, "Write songs, young man. They will keep you in your old age." Maybe I'll write a few songs to keep me in my old age just in case my racing system fails to provide me with a luxurious living. Heart Throbs At what age does a man have the most sex appeal? Joan Craw ford appears to take the view that middleaged men have the most potent attraction for fe males. Asked to select the fifteen "sexiest male film stars," Joan included In her list Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Humphrey Bo gart, Gary Cooper and Bing Crosby. I believe all these gen tlemen are over 50. Also on Joan's list of "sexiest stars" are John Wayne, James Stewart, Cary Grant and Robert Taylor. All these men are crowding 45, Passing By Charlie Berns. The gay gour met. Guiding spirit of Jack and Charlie's Twenty-One Club, one of the world's most elegant eat eries. The charming and smartly attired lady by Charlie's side is his clever wife, Molly, whose ad vice and suggestions are said to have been a major factor in the Twent-One Club having achieved and maintained so much of that thing called "class." Girl Friday That brilliant career woman, Corinne Thrasher, has been Henry Luce's secretary for 22 years. That's a long time to have been the secretary of the same man. Also a long time for a man to be able to keep the same sec retary. Wonder if it is the Girl Friday record. Asking Queries from clients: Q. Is it a fact that Rudolph Valentino introduced the tango to this country? I claim he only popu larized tnat dance by his per formance of it in the film "The Four Horsemen of the Apoca lypse." A. The tango was intro duced to the country in 1914 in a countrywide tour by the dance team of Rudolph Valentino and Bonnie Glass. Rebellion Size of drink served in New York bars continues to shrink. In some places it is five-eighths of an ounce. A drinkers' rebellion has resulted. Only 30 per cent of strong drink sold in New York is sold over the City's 9,000 bars. Seventy per cent is sold in the 2,000 package stores of the town. The home made highball in New York averages two ounces, and costs about one-fourth as much as the midget highball served in the bars. Record A baby every year for twenty- six years of marriage. Twenty-six blessed events in twenty -six years. Never a year has passed since she became a bride that she nasnt had a baby. That's the record of Mrs. Marie Cyr of Fort Kent, Maine. It is the world's record for consistent child bear ing. Mrs. Cyr, now 43, married when 17.
