t MODERN IMPROVEMENTS. —By BURTIS THE "ftOy WHO ' MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE 1 , • BY MOLLIE MERRICK. HOLLYWOOD. July 19 (N.A.N.A.).— Lila Lee will not be able to appear at the hearing of the divorce suit Insti tuted by James Kirkwood, her actor husband, and contested by the actress. A nervous breakdown, with complica tions, which has taken her to an Ari zona sanitarium, prevents her appear ance in court next week. Friends say •he is still in a very critical condition. Lila Lee's illness followed 18 months of the hardest work any girl in the colony has put in. Add to that t.w’o years of minimum diet to maintain the slimmest silhouette imaginable. Rene Adoree emerged from an illness of two months to take her first automo bile ride yesterday. The plump French type of the Adoree became a little too rounded for camera uses. One of the best actresses in the profession, she was prevailed upon to acquire camera outlines, with disastrous results. The camera adds 10 to 15 pounds to Its victims. So they must keep that weight below normal slenderness. And Mother Nature frequently cries out in protest. Those with a little loose cash are laying bets on how long Frederick Lonsdale, playwright, will be able to stand Hollywood on this the occasion of his third attempt to storm the gela tin colony. The first time he got as far as Cher bourg on a Hollywood-bent Journey; second time he arrived here, but out again almost immediately. He was due here again last night with a Ronald Colman story. He's one of the convivial spirits of the colony. And he has made a for tune from writing talkies. He main tains a splendid estate in Beverly Hills, and his parties, presided over by his charming wife, are all that hospitality should be. But he also has maintained an apart tnent in Hollywood village for his more Daily Cross-Word Puzzle r. 'j | i i I'!' > Aero'S. 1. Certain proportional part. 6. Snow vehicle. 13. Killing. * 14.

When the party ing w'as at its height a ring at the doorbell took the flushed host to the door. His wife entered breezily, accom panied by one of the most attractive of the local bachelors. In fact, this bach elor has a reputation for sirening wives away from their lawful spouses that cannot be beat. The host and husband waited for the scene. It was not forthcoming. His wife and her boy friend were the hit of the evening. She easily stole the atten tion of most of the lads, and some of the little blonds who brought them were in a pet. All she ever said to her husband was. "I think you’re a mean old thing not to invite me to your hobohemian par ties! You know how I love informality. So does So-and-So" (mentioning the boy friend). And she airily conveyed the impres sion that she’d been seeing the heart breaker on the long evenings when husband was "in conference.” Now he spends his time at his own hearthside, keeping the lady-killer from the door. His cronies say the episode has ruined his flair for fun. His wife looks like the cat that ate the canary. And being a wise lady, she’ll never talk; just gives him the Mona Lisa. It seems Joan Crawford has never learned to use a knife and fork, but eats all of her courses with a spoon. I quote from a recently published article: “I’ve never noticed that charming lady spooning up a chicken leg or bringing the round weapon to bear upon a dish of asparagus.” (Copyright. 1930. by North American News paper Alliance.)
