Reunited: Cinemactress Ilona Massey and her very motherly-looking mother, Mrs. Lydia Hagymasy, who arrived from Budapest; after ten years; at New York's LaGuardia Field. Actress Massey was having a full week: she had just appealed to Washington to let her Aunt Terez stay in the U.S., and she was about to marry Tier third husband...

Today he owns three farms, has 3,500 buckets out and produces some 700 to 1,000 gallons of syrup. Ayres thinks that the way farmers have cut down their maple groves is bad, their...
...radio. He recently upped Bing Crosby's Hooper 4.9 points, boosted Eddie Cantor's a full 5. Offered a show of his own, Jolson declined: he can make too much money guesting-with no worries over script and sponsor. At week's end, Jolson signed for ten appearances on the Crosby show next fall-$50,000 guaranteed...
