An excellent variation for plain

;T homas Gives Meanings Of
,Colorful Hollywood Terms
By 808 THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD, May 28—(AP)
—Let us again delve into the Hol
iywood ianguage.
As I have said before, Holly
wood has its own idiom. Listeners
to comedy air shows aften hear
segments of the language with
such foreignisms as “Madam
Muntz,” ‘“Honest John,” “Cuca
monga,” “Smog,’ ete.
Having been brought up on the
language as a native, I feel I am
able to interpret it for outsiders. I
am preparing a dictionary of Hol
lywood terms with their special,
local meanings. Here are a few
of the entries: 7/
Hollywood Dictionary
Actor—A man who hates direc
tors.
Agent—An optimist with a cigar.
Boffo—A surefire success, such
as Esther Williams in a bathing
suit.
Colossal—Good.
Columnist—A necessary evil.
Commissary—a place where ac
