JIMMY DURANTE and his long-time partner and buddy, Eddie Jackson, who will be seen in The Jimmy Durante Show, opening a nine-day run March 28, at Melodyland Theatre.

Melodyland Sets Top Talent
Juliet Prowse, tall, sensuous actress-dancer, has been signed as a special added attraction on "The Jimmy Durante Show," which opens a nine-day run March 28, at Melodyland Theatre. The "Great Schnozzolo himself heads the bill, which date, also includes his long-time pal, Eddie Jackson and Sonny King.
Juliet, born in South Africa had hoped for a career as a ballet dancer. But her height of 5 feet, seven inches kept her from dancing the classics and she turned to modern dancing in London and wound up in Jane Russell-Jeanne Crain film, "Gentlemen Marry Bridesnetes," selected personally by choreographer Jack Cole. Following this, she went into the London Palladium production of "Kismet," as one of the chorus and when a leading dance withdrew, took over the role of "Princess Samaris," and scored a hit.
Next came appearances in Paris and new triumphs, the Juliet toured Italy, Germany and France, going to Barcelona Spain, to star in a revue, which lasted six months. While in Spain, she received an offer from Hermes Pan, another great Hollywood choreographer, to dance in the picture "Can-Can," which was to be made by Twentieth-Century Fox. The part was small, but the Prowse luck prevailed and when the film went before the cameras, Juliet played a leading role.

KEEPING UP WITH JONES
By ILA JONES
ART EXHIBIT — It is always pleasure to attend an art exhibit where one does not have stand before a painting several minutes pondering upon that the artist had in mind when he painted same.
The current exhibition by Leslie B. Demille in the Community Room of the Glendale Federal Savings and Loan局, 320 N. Harbor Blvd., Alerton, is a fine example of a noted portrait artist's talis. He uses a definite masculine style in his still-lifes which made them outstanding. His one-man show is truly with viewing.
The art exhibit sponsored by Anaheim Art Assn. nowwing at the California Fed-Savings building corner of the theatre? Then you should get in touch with Santa Ana College Speakers Bureau. Staff members of SAC offer their talents through the Speakers Bureau as a free community service as well as color movies about junior college and entertainment by choral groups. For example, Court Holdgrafer, a psychology instructor, presents an exciting talk on flying as a hobby. Contact KI 2-7226.
ELECTION COMING — Where are all the council candidates? Why don't they find an issue and create some excitement? Most people aren't aware there will be an election, let alone know who stands for what when they go to vote. This city has too much at stake for the league organizer.

ELECTION COMING — Where are all the council candidates? Why don't they find an issue and create some excitement? Most people aren't aware there will be an election, let alone know who stands for what when they go to vote. This city has too much at stake for its future to let a uniformed voting public elect incompetent council members.
FASHION NOTE — It's a soft and swingy Easter for children with capes and drapes and ruffles and flounces, with new fit and femininity in little girls' dresses, coats and suits — new softness in shaping, color, fabric — and lots of romantics in all of children's wear, even sports clothes scene.
CPW AWARDS — The best of women journalists met for a dinner-award meeting at the Newporter Inn and I've never met a finer group of women. The South Coast President Carrie Lou Sutherland made the whole affair a delight. Columnist and foreign correspondent John Morley was the guest speaker of the evening. To my way of thinking, he is better informed about the Far East, particularly Viet Nam, than anything I've heard or read coming out of Washington. Freeman Lusk, of the Newporter, as emcee put the top on the evening.
MY AUNT MATILDA was quoting Kiplings' "The Last Department" the other day. When she finished the last two lines, viz: "... Trust me. Today's Most Indispensables, 500 men can take your place or mine." She quipped, "Ah, that I should be so fortunate!"
