Young Actress

By Betty Betz

Jean Simmons is now 19 is Great Britain's most talented young actress, and takes to Shake- speare like a duck takes to à puddle.

I met Jean in London, and when she stepped out of the great big old-fashioned English taxi,

I thought it was Princess Margaret, for they both seem to prefer the some style of clothes. She wore

a light blue silk dress with a tremendous skirt, ankle strap shoes, white gloves, and a tiny white straw bonnet.

Those are by no means her only performances, for Jean Simmons has been on the stage ever since she wore her hair in pigtails. Now she has her hair fixed in a short feather cut bob, and "dislikes" wearing hats, al- though the studio advised her it "looked more ladylike for inter- views"

She was very castle which she now could well busy collecting autographs of the afford! famous movie stars...just like the bobby scxers who now wait outside her own studio every day.

READERS' LETTERS

We are the only two of the many girls in Hong Kong who have mustered the courage to write to you. But we am stre that there are many more girls| who agree with us and feel the same way as we do.

Боль to the cinema don't they? Don't they ever get the idea of giving us girls what we dream of a "corsage."

We know that they have the money to do it, so why don't they ever oblige? Is it that they never thought of it or is it that they are too much of a miser?

Next time you go, to a dance

or a big party, boys, don't for- get the "corsage."

McConnell's Slipborn brought us the happy music of New Orleans and it is great pity that records by the greats of Jazz, Kid Ory, George Brunies, Muggy Spanier, and the earlier Bob Crosby are almost impossible to get in Hong Kong.
