STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL ♦ + ♦
Jia-Tiits from Everywhere + + + by phineas j. biron
I have some Hitleratic gossip on tap
that you should hear. . . . For anyone
who desires proof of some of the “ru
mors” that have been going the rounds.
. . . Come to this pillar and witness pho
tostatic evidence that Captain Goering,
Hitler’s right arm, is a morphine fiend
and was committed to an insane asylum
back in ’25. . . . S. Hurok will gladly
tell you, should you ask him, of his bat
tle with Mary Wigman, the dancer, over
his refusal to book her for another Amer
ican tour this winter. . . . Because of
her contributions to the Hitler Fund. . . .
Martin Herman, the globetrotting brother
of the famous A1 Woods, recently suf
fered a broken nose in Berlin. . . . When
Nazis demanded that he salute them in
a cafe, his protest that he was an Ameri
can, was to no avail. . . . They christened
him over the nose with an expensive bot
tle of champagne. . . . Sam Klein, the
famous merchant and philanthropist,
found out just what it means to contribute
$$,000 worth of merchandise to a subur
ban hospital benefit. . . . Only to be dis
criminated against because of his non-
Aryan blood.
Sol Weingarten, an old, old friend of
the Sidney family, was a secret passen
ger aboard the lie de France, when Syl
via sailed. . . . He has been striving for
“yars” and “yars” to get a matrimonial
consent from the gorgeous gal. . . . And
was determined to succeed before the
ship docked. . . . George Jessel is intent
on a film comeback and we wish him the
best of luck. ... In the picture “Sing
Sinner Sing,” which is traveling about
the country. . . . Libby Holman's gruesome
story is thinly disguised. . . . The pro
ducers evidently not caring particularly
to camouflage it. . . . Ricardo Cortez
swears that he heard a famous star say,
‘Ay Tank Ay Go Homo.” . . . Sammy
Lee, nee Levy, the veteran dance director,
goes the novelty thinker-upers one better
in his new dance routine for Joan Craw
ford’s “Dancing Lady” now in production.
. . . He is staging a number with a hun
dred girls on a hundred bicycles, going
through their steps on the two-wheelers.
Sam Rosoff, the big subway builder and
the man who is contributing the stage
for the production of the pageant “ I he
Romance of a People.” . . . ^ aused an
uproar at the Saratoga horse auctions
the other week. . . . With the accusation
that the swells were blocking his bids
because of Hitler reasons. ... Charles
Carlile, the Columbia Broadcasting Sys
tem tenor, was a principal in a Jewish
synagogue choir ... Before he became
a radio hit. ... But he isn't Jewish. . . .
Borah Minevitch, the barmonicer, was
taken to the cleaners for practically his
entire roll in the recent Wall street jit
ters. . . . Luckily they left him his trust
worthy harmonica. . . . Now he can start
building up some more “Dinero” to feed
his voracious margin callers. ... At last
the Shuberts will have some education in
their business. . . . Young Johnnie Shu-
bert has given up the Harvard Law
School to concentrate on his pop’s thea
tres. . . . Al Joison was surprised the
other day, when his barber asked him to
autograph a dollar tip, which he gave
him. . . . “You’re not going to keep it in
these tough times,” said the thunderstruck
Al. . . . "Not on your life" replied the
canny barber, "I’m going to sell it.” . . .
Lehar’s “Land of Smiles” is all set for
Hebrew presentation at Tel Aviv.
Maxie Baer almost knocked himself
out the other day. ... It happened while
shooting some of the scenes in “The Prize
Fighter and the Lady.” ... In prize fight
scenes, the ropes are omitted from one
side of the ring. ... In order to allow
the cameras space to work. . . . Well, dur
ing one of the scene* Maxie decided to
bounce off the ropes. . . . The only thing
wrong with that decision is that he chose
the side without the ropes. ... In the
same picture is one V’ince Barnett. . . .
Vince is what is known as a professional
ribber. ... In Knglish, a practical joker.
. . . For a gag Vince went over to Wera
Kngels and began a thorough ribbing as
to the fact that the foreign actresses like
Wera, came to this country and took the
bread from the mouths of our own girls
so that they starved, etc., etc. ... He
hadn’t gone very far, however, before
the girl burst into tears. . . . I.ike all
practical jokes, this one went a bit too
far, for Miss Kngels upon the bad ad
vice of someone gave up a contract and
hasn't worked since. . . . Naturally, she
couldn't see the joke.
Add sad commentaries on the ups and
downs of life. . . . Once upon a time, a
gentleman named Horace Liveright was
a big-time publisher as most of you no
doubt are aware. . . . Now Simon and
Schuster, who were little when he was
big, have hired him at a small weekly
wage instead of the usual advance. . . .
To write his own life story . . . Meyer
W. Weisgal, the human dynamo, who is
responsible for the tremendous undertak
ing of “The Romance of a People” due
September 14, at the Polo Grounds in
New York. . . . Claims that with all the
hullabaloo and excitement attendant to
an affair of this sort, he will be fit for
an insane asylum by the opening date.
... If not before. . . . Here is one for
the books. . . . Irving Thalberg, t£e
white-haired boy of the Metro Goldwyn
Mayer lot, is squatting in the De Mille
bungalow there. . . . Right next to David
Selznick’s hut . . . And David intends
showing him the “sights” which have
cropped up during his absence. . . . Or
dinarily that wouldn’t be startling, but
for the fact that there has been a state
of inner warfare in the studio . . . With
Louis B. Mayer, seeking to place his
relative, Selznick over Thalberg.
