floral department at the Ore

The 10-foot fountain, with
color lights playing upon the
streams of water, and lake,

Rumors in Hollywood SayActress Secretly Married
By VERNON SCOTT
UPI Hollywood Correspondent
Hollywood - IUPD - One of
the less earth-shattered ques
tions going the movietown
rounds: Is Yvette Mimieux
secretly married?
Rumor has it that the 18-year-old
actress is wed secret
ly to a professor in a South
ern California university.
But blonde, blue-eyed
Yvette, when asked, giggled
uncomfortably and shot a
knowing look at her press
agent - who also giggled.
Then, as if to give one an
other confidence, they denied
the whole thing.
The gossip, however, con
tinues while Yvette either re
fuses to discuss the matter or
says "no" with a twinkle in
her eye.
She figures she has enough
problems with her name.
Half French on her father's
side and half Spanish, Yvette
is the newest member of the
tongue twisting name brigade.
Unusual Name Helpful
"I believe an unusual name
can be a great help to an act
ress," she said prettily at the
M-G-M commissary. "Fortun
ately, Yvette Mimieux is my
real name. Some of the old
timers changed theirs."
Among the exotic handles
of the past were Theda Bara
with the help of a slight trans-1
position reads "Arab Death" j
backward, Toby Wing, Faye j
Wray, Gale Storm, Bessie i
Love, Tallulah Bankhead,
Helen Twelvetrees, Bessie
Barriscale, Pola Negri and
Nila Naldi.
"In each case, whether they
were real names or not, I
think the names were import
ant in their success," Yvette
smiled.
"When I came lo metro
(where she's's currently star
ring in 'Where the Boys Are')
they wanted to call me Sally
Jane or something. But f stood
my ground and they let me
keep my own name."
Name Is Anglicized
She added quickly that her
last name is pronounced Mim-1
Yur in French, but has been
anglicized to Mim-ee-oh.
"There are some disadvant
ages to my name," she said.
"I get infuriated when peo
ple rush up to ask me if I'm
a relative of Sal Mineo."
Yvette is determined lo be
come a motion picture star
and vehemently flays televis
ion as a waste of time and
talent.
"When I perform I want It
to be a special event, so peo-. ting at home in their undeJ-l "Indefinitely am not mar-
pie will dress up and go to the wear drinking Deer." iicu, .. -
