Movie Stars Tell Secrets Of Beauty
Hollywood (U.P.)-Gloria Swanson is 55, Marlene Dietrich 53, and Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck, Ginger Rogers, Loretta Young and Irene Dunne in their 40s.
Yet, they are the reigning beauties of Hollywood, still with youthful figures and faces.
How do they stay that way?
Diet, they agree, is the most im-
ful.
How do they stay that way?
portant factor in staying young. —Grandmother Swanson is a vegetarian and eats only fresh fruits, vegetables, whole wheat breads and the like. She cooks the vegetables herself in a pressure cooker with little water. At dinner parties, she confesses, she just toys with the rich heavy foods.
Loretta Young confines herself to
learn foods, fruits and vegetables
leah meats, fruits and vegetables.
"I always skip desserts," she says.
"No girl can be ugly with a gorgeous figure, and any girl can have a nice shape if she's willing to work at it."
Loretta walks a great deal for exercise. She uses creams, plus soap and water on her face. Her makeup consists of lipstick,a light dusting of powder and rouge, plus macra.
Barbara Stanwyck never covers her beautiful complexion with powder. She wears a touch of eyeshadow and lipstick at night and usually no make-up at all by day. She uses only soap and water on her face, but believes women with dry skins should try creams.
This veteran actress has let her hair go frankly gray. She has it washed, cut and set at least twice a week at the hairdresser. To women who wait they never would have the time, she says:
"When I'm not working I organize my entire day with appointments. You can have your hair set in the time you would waste over a second cup of coffee."
Joan Crawford's recipe for glamor and youth is the look on your face. She believes beauty is a state of mind. She says her secret is a look of "giving."

Stewardesses Have Highest Marriage Rate
Los Angeles —(U.P.)— The best place for a girl to hunt for a husband is in the air.
The feminine head of a training school for airlines stewardesses says this occupation often is described as "husband insurance." So many stewardesses marry soon after starting work that there's a constant shortage of personnel, she adds.
Their matrimonial objects usually are passengers, other airlines employees, and 'the boy back home.' Miss Toy says that many a stewardess has heard the "my, how-you've changed" remark when she visits home after starting her airlines career.
The Los Angeles office of the U.S. Department of Commerce says the training apparently all but insures a husband—stewardess has the highest marriage rate of any occupation group, with no close second in sight.
Then Miss Toy and her staff of 12 former stewardesses go to work on the applicant's personality and appearance.
A look at some of the school's methods helps to explain why the girls trap men so easily.
First off, the ones who enroll must meet certain physical, requirements. Their age range is from 21 to 28, their height from five feet, one inch to five feet, seven, and weight from 100 to 140 pounds.
The course lasts 12 weeks, and emphasizes poise, speech, good grooming, and posture—including success of how to sit down properly.
A Hollywood hair stylist restyles the students' hair. And if there's a glaring feature fault, it may be corrected at a low fee under arrangements between the school and a plastic surgeon.
United and American Airlines offices in Los Angeles agree that stewardesses are in constant demand.
And one spokesman even had a little cheering news for girls who might not at present fill the physical bill.
"American girls are getting heavier and taller, and so many of our stewardesses marry so soon," he said with a sigh, "that we may have to change height and weight limits."

Dr. Daum was selected as one of Iowa's 10 outstanding women in 1938 by Business and Professional women.
"We feel that many students on the campus are not familiar with Omicron Nu," said Norma Lou Falletta, college senior, president, "and we hope that through these projects it will become better known."
