ERMINE WINS, MINK 2ND IN MET OPEN, headlined a who-wore-what story in the tabloid Mirror. Newsmen blinked at luscious Lucius Beebe, one of their alumni, who spent the whole evening at the bar with a pint-sized companion, both wearing silk hats. No really well-dressed man, sniffed Hearstling Cholly Knickerbocker, would wear a top hat with a dinner jacket...
Both elevens, already hung with three losses this year, will be gunning for this triumph as a possible turning point in a disappointing season; and for the Bengals the contest will also provide a luscious opportunity to avenge last year's desperate 13 to 12 defeat. Rutgers, Cornell, and Pennsylvania have toppled the Orange and Black earlier in the season, but a comparison of the 13 to 7 Rutgers-Princeton tally with the Cantabs '31 to 7 shellacking puts the invaders at least 6 points in front in the bookies lineup...

Miss Barrymore, trapped in foolish lines and a none-too rewarding role, appears often...
...married, and has a pet Pomeranian, "Jacacki." He is a dapper dresser, paints on a time-clock daily schedule in a corner of his small, commonplace living room. Magritte considers Dali an excellent businessman ("he is rich") but has intense scorn for fellow Belgian surrealist Paul Delvaux, who paints luscious nudes picking roses in classic landscapes, with now & then a streetcar lurking about in the background (TIME, Dec. 30). Painter Delvaux, Magritte thinks, "has exploited surrealism as he would have exploited pork-butchery...
