Bob Hope Believes Movie Stars Should Belong To Their Public
Hollywood—(U.P.)—Bob Hope, newly-elected "mayor" of Toluca lake, said today this is no time for movie stars to get snooty and dig up that old "private lives" routine.
"You can't do it." Hizzoner insisted. "You gotta cooperate. A film star belongs to the public, whether he likes it or not."
And "Scoop Snot," for one, like the idea of having a public to belong to. He's one of those gents who thinks a little thing like having people want to see him is pretty important to a celluloid celebrity.
Hope makes sure they see all of him they want to, too. He just finished "Son of Paleface" and "My Favorite Spy" at Paramount; he starts his TV show over NBC tomorrow afternoon and he hasn't eaten dinner at home a dozen times in a row in years.
But his fans see to it the Missus and the four little Hopes eat fillet mignons while pap plays the benefits.
It's practically routine for charities around the country to schedule their big drives to suit Hope's date book. He never turns 'em down.
But benefits don't count when he's talking about cooperating with the public.
"They're special," Hope said, "If I think I can help somebody by sticking my face up to a mike and cracking a few gage I'll do it."
what he means by cooperating, he explained, is accepting the sometimes bitter truth that when he shows his famous nose in public
somebody will want to take a picture of it.
"You might as well smile and let 'em." Hope said, "Because they're gonna get you eventually. Why make it hard on them . . . and you too? It only takes a minute."
"If you want to stay famous," he said. "You have to work at it."
He feels so strongly about this he's going to write a book and call it "You Belong to the Public."
Take that mayor business. That's going to take time, what with banquets and publicity pictures and all.
Hope figures this is important stuff.
He doesn't high-hat the neighbors when they saunter in.
"Of course you have to draw the line somewhere," he admitted. "Doores and don'r." The magazines and children's playground kids. But that's to protect the kids.
"And I hide out when those sightseeing buses drive by. Once they spot me the driver'll park there till I come out and wave. They just wait me out... while the passengers chew up the hodge."
Otherwise, he's "available Robert." To everybody except one pretty brunette.
"Dolores called me up this morning," Hope said, grinning, "and said: 'Tell me just one thing. What do you look like these days?'"

Zsa Zsa Is MGM's 'Walking Diamond Mine'
Hollywood—(U.P.)-Zsa Zsa Gabor, the blonde beauty who makes' even gorgeous dames look like hags, eyed her $65,000 diamond ring casually today and said she can't see why people call her "fabulous."
"I'm a perfectly serious young woman," she said, pouting prettily. "Diamonds just happen to be a good investment. They're better than money in the bank. You can't wear money."
Zsa Zsa does the next best thing. She's the only actress we know who goes to work at MGM dripping sparklers. She has one ring that looks like the head-light on the super chief.
Her "working" ice is some little bitty $20,000 item. Zsa Sza saves her rock for Sundays and fancy parties, so she doesn't think that's "fabulous."
"This?" she asked. "Oh, this is just my 'working diamond.' You should see the ones I have at home."
She's also the only glamour gal in town who keeps a painter busy redoing her portraits every time she changes the color of her hair.
Zsa Zsa has half a dozen paintings
So what to do? Zsa Zsa didn't hesitate a minute. She called in a painter and had him dab yellow paint over all the curls on the paintings.
in the modern mansion she shares with her actor-husband, George Sanders. And a little while back she got tired of being a redhead and switched to blonde.
"What's fabulous about that?" she demanded, "I want them to look like me, don't I?"
Zsa Zsa is also the most outspoken actress on the subject of marrying for love.
"One day I think it's a good idea," she said, smiling, "and the next day I don't. Look at me. I married George for love. And when he's away I'm perfectly miserable."
Zsa Zsa's not kidding there. When she divorced her magnate Conrad Hilton she pranced out of court with a bucketful of dough. About $300,- 000 to be exact--all tax free.
"And you certainly can't accuse me of marrying him for money. I gave up a fortune when I got him."
And there are times, she said, when she wonders if "George is worth it."
Now she's working for a living. Says she just got a sudden yen to be an actress.
"I started out on 'bachelor's haven' on TV," she said, and "just say whatever pops into my head."
The way the unpredictable Zsa Zsa says it impressed the boys at MGM. And the fact that she looks sensational in those TV necklines didn't hurt her chances, either.
They offered her a role in "Lovely to Look At" and she snapped at it. Now she's learning how to act.

"I have to be good," she said, grinning. "There are too many women in this town hoping I'll fall flat on my face. But I'll show them, the cats!"
