DAILY BLAA FROM BROADWAY By Jon and Jene The new year thus far has been super- excitlng in little old New York. Never be- fore have we seen so many new, famous, and glamorous pans decorating the hot spots. We saw J. Samuel Hoskln, author of Cones and Old Lake, at the Imperial Cafe yesterday. The show starring his wife, that beautiful hunk of girl of silent films you all know, is going great guns on the Gay White Way. Dark, exotic Juanita de .Sheaz has been seen a lot lately with Sanford Plourde II -- the pair of pants worth S500,000 every twelve months to the one that gets him. Honeychild Pope, who ls now appear- ing at the Grecian Room of the Hotel Hey- wood, is rumored engaged to Bob Hogan, her handsome bandleader, with whom she vocals. In the very front row of the Grecian Room's swank tables were Phil Marsh and Mal Berman, owner and coach respectively of the last place Broklyn Dodgers. Even Phil's peepers looked like a couple of base- balls when scantlly dressed Ruthie Nicker- son did her number called The Ball Rum- ba . Whee! Countess Olga Volga and H. K. Mac- Gowan, the great child specialist, are coolng at the Stork Club. Only last week fast Dr. McGowan was romantically linked with deb Ellsa La Bostrome of Palm Beach. Marie Gartley of the Gorham-Gartley law firm has left for that famous spot out Nev- ada way already. S'he's the babe that won fame by getting Bob Stack a divorce from Lana Turner and then grabbing him for her- self. Miss Tony Blther, who has written a se- quel to They Died With Their Boots On called The Cobbler's Lament, was in town yesterday to see her publishers, Jones, Boyne, and Hughes. This gay society charmer was striking in a gray suit with a purple hat by Chapeau. Miss Edythe .Rlchardson, star of Mis- souri Compromlse, has been a permanent fixture on Junior Hale's arm for the last few weeks. Junior is the son of P. T. Hale, the millionaire piano bench manufacturer and backer of this alluring gal's show. 'Their engagement is to be announced as soon as his divorce decree from Arlean Alicia Tay- lor becomes final. Miss Taylor, of the New- port ale-brewing Taylors, was definitely upper crust Park Avenue, and her and his tastes dld not mix. Mamie Lloyd of bubble dancing fame is reported married to Jones, the publisher. Don't be surprised, though, if she an- nounces her wedding ties with horseman R. Randolph Russell. Writer Pollle May Grant's newest tune, Peachie , is breaking records across the country. We promise to tell you a real hot dish of scoop tomorrow. We promised a certain little chorus girl and a young reporter for the Times that we wouldn't mention their wedding until the last of the month. We'll be seeing you tomorrow! BUY AND WIN By Donald Gldney There is a man called Uncle Sam, Who on us makes a great demand- That if we want to save the country of which we are so fond, We each must do our share by buying- A United States Savings Bond. We, the citizens of this land of the free, Are as smart as any citizens could be, And we'll fight for the freedom of which we are so fond- By buying a United States Savings Bond. Insure our freedom by buying today! Act now! Don't you delay! They cost so little, the outcome is vital, The man who might rule us would have a title, And gone would be the government of the people, So buy today and you can't go wrong- Purchase now your Savings Bond! ONE SIP-A SLIP By Odette Pelletler There was a young lady from Hodgdon, The boys-why she couldn't dodge 'eml She stuck out her llpg I took a small sip- She now shares my board and lodgln'!
