Intriguing name that's made
easily by broiling alternated
chunks of lamb, green pepper
and onion on skewers.
It never fails to impress guests
and it puts a party on a merry
footing, especially when every

own kebab. Perfect accompani
ments are rice, a green salad and
goblets of cool, sparkling beer.

Fall's Party-Going Fabrics
To Be Rich-Looking Satins
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Staff Correspondent
New York (U.R) Women will shimmer after dark next
winter in the most lavish fabrics since the party-going days of
the roaring 20s.
Great Britain's young Queen
Elizabeth has inspired this new
elegance with her satin and bro
cade ball gowns and glittering
jewels, designer Jane Derby
says.
Less romantic fashion observ
ers give credit to economic pros
perity and 20th century tech
nology. Men gave up wearing the satin
pants in the family back in the
18th century, they point out,
when the industrial revolution
came along and businessmen got
the idea guess from whom of
showing off their wealth via
their wives' wardrobes, not their
own.
Prosperity
Present prosperity gives
plenty of reason to wear rich
leoking satins and dazzling met
allic materials, they add, and
laboratory technicians have pro
vided lush new fabrics to suit the
budgets of more modest success.
Anyway, it'll be hard to give
a dull party next winter. Design
er Adele Simpson calls it the
opulent look.
She was referring to the even
ing clothes she previewed
on the last day of the series
of all and winter fashion shows
sponsored by the coutre group
of the New York Dress Institute.
Mrs. Simpson will have her
customers shimmering in long
evening dresses of silk metal
brocade, satins dotted with
pearls and rhinestone and for
the very opulent a gold lame
evening coat with a mink shawl
collar.
Queenly Gowns
Mrs. Derby will provide short
versions of queenly evening
gowns. One short white satin
derby evening dress has a flared
skirt studded with rhinestones.
Another is made of imported
moire silk with glittering rhine
stone straps over the shoulders.

Around
Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
Hollywood U.R) Susan Hay
W'ard's next picture unveils her
as a husky-voiced blues singer,
but the red-
haired star
modestly
thinks she's a
one- picture
crooner.
Susan, back
at work for
the first time
since her re
c e n t suicide
Aline Mosby attempt, sur
prised Hollywood and herself
by coming forth with an amaz
ingly good voice.
MGM had planned to have a
professional singer dub in Su
san's voice for the film of singer
Lillian Roth's life, "I'll Cry To
morrow." But musical director
Johnny Oreen tricked Susan into
a voice test and she was "so ex
citing" she'll do her own
warbling.
'Just for Laughs'
"It's probably just for this pic
ture. I'm a dramatic actress and
I doubt if I'll sing again," the
star insists. "This is just for
laughs."
Director Danny Mann, how
ever, thinks this picture "will
mean another career for Susan
in musicals and on the stage if
she wants it." Susan's throaty
voice, according to "rushes" of
her musical scenes, sounds like
a young Sophie Tucker. Green
calls Susan a "female Al Jol
son." It was Green who asked Susan
to sing a sample record that the
studio could use in finding' a si
milar voice for the dubbing.
Tricked by Green
"She said she'd do it only if I
promised never to play the rec
ord for anybody, and if we'd re
cord it alone in my office,"
Green says.
"She sang, "Let's Fall in
Love'. After she became relaxed,
I flicked on the recorder. I broke
my promise and played the rec
ord for studio chief Dore Schary.
He was so impressed we delayed
the picture two weeks so she
could take singing lessons.
"She agreed to sing if we
hired a stand-in singer in case
she changed her mind. But she
didn't."
New Type Biographies
"I'll Cry Tomorrow" is
another news-maker because it
illustrates a new trend in film
biographies. They used to be
whit e-washes of celebrities'
lives.
But "Love Me or Leave Me"
was a frank account of singer
Ruth Etting's life. "The Girl in
the Red Velvet Swing" pulls no
