When players are required by the studios to appear in front of the sound cameras all details of their costumes are carefully planned. Fashion experts spend weeks in creating designs for feminine stars and the men work their tailors overtime. These many hours a day spent in semi-formal or strictly formal attire causes a strong 'clothes reaction" with most stars when they are allowed a few minutes from the sets. Wean Informal Clothes Joan Crawford is one of the feminine stars who enjoys her leisure time In Informal togs and usually wears dark colored beach pajamas with a sport sweater. Leila Hyams is a tennis fan and combines the beach with tennis court by wearing tailored white duck trousers for ner game.

GLOSS Beacon Joarnal Theater Editor PERHAPS you are among those who are Impressed by such events as a change in the style ol a star's makeup.

If so, then it is quite likely you have commented on the striking makeup in Joan Crawford's recent pictures. And a press agent insists Joan feels very badly about some of the criticism that has followed in the wake of that new upper lip outline. Bhe insists that it was adopted to emphasize the characters she has been playing and that when she receives a role which doesn't concern woman who has been or can be had, shell apply the rouge differently. And she adds that Garbo needn't worry. Joan Crawford wants to be Joan and not Garbo.

And now you know why the new makeup, or do you? THIRD of the chain gang cycle 1 has been written by Jim Tully and the producers believe it gives them a jump on the censor trouble anticipated in the South for the first two. Tully's yarn, "Laughter in Hell," winds up way back in 1880. ANOTHER "fan" note of alarming importance is that the fan mail addressed to "Tolucca" is growing by the hundreds. "Tolucca," if you don't know, is Gary Cooper's pet monkey. a ROYAL FAMILY A "did you know that?" from a press agent letter says that the formal uniform John Barrvmore wears in "Rasputin" is so tight he cannot sit down in it.

And aside from the wisecracking it may arouse, the Information awakens some wonder about "Rasputin" as a talkie. The movies, by some strange hapstance, are getting the jump on this subject.

of royalty in Russia, hasn't tempted playwrights. Practically every major producer on Broadway at some time or other in recent years, has read and longed to produce a play based upon the life of the black monk. PROBLEMS But somehow, when it came to casting problems, they Just couldn't seem to make the grade. For instance, there is the records of the now non-producing Jed Harris. Worthington Miner, now a highly regarded director, and Myra Marines, joined in writing a play based on the Rasputin life and Harris was "sold on it.1' But when it camo to casting he wanted Roland Young, Paul Muni, Katharine Cornell and quite a few others.

Too tough a payroll for the legitimate stage. Now, in Hollywood, this yarn of royalty and its vagaries, is being played by the theater's Royal Family the Barrymore clan. John has the role of Prince Feliz Youssopoff, Ethel is the sad Czarina and Lionel will growl the lines of Rasputin. (This despite brother John's penchant for whisker roles.)
