Gloria Swanson
Again In Movies
HOLLYWOOD, (/P) — Gloria
Swanson, nearing her 51st birth
day, has come back to Hollywood
to play a role for which she is es
pecially fitted—that of an ex- j
movie queen.
The woman who rose from a $2
a-day bathing beauty extra to a
$12 000-a-week screen siren qi the
’20s and early ’30s, has signed a
contract for a role in Paramount’s
“Sunset Boulevard.”
The star of many a silent and
early sound epic has been appear
ing before the television cameras
in New York.
As she signed her film contract
Monday she said:
“Al’hough it has been a long
time since I’ve been on a studio
stage. I feel quite at home—as if
I had never been away.”
In 1911 she attempted a come
back with Adolph Menjou in
“Father Takes A Wife.”
That was her first picture since
1938—and her last until now.
FISH FLEE FROM WATER
FLEETWOOD, England, (JP} —
Residents here were amazed to see
large numbers of fish trying to
get out of the water.
Some were leaping. Others were
swimming with their heads above
the surface and when thrown '
back into deep water they imme
diately swam back to shore, mem
bers of the Layton Angling Soci
ety reported.
It is believed the fish were poi
soned by pollution in the River
Wyre. Both fish and water are be
ing analyzed by the ministry of
agriculture and fisheries.
