film critic. He succeeds Francis Birrell in the fall.

Cooke has written a lot for English papers about Hollywood

where he recently worked on the script for Chaplin‘s

new film. Appointment, in effect, carries sole rights to radio

criticism of films, B. B. C. having a monopoly

of the British air.

„While Paulette and Charlie cultivate sphinx-like smiles“

Editorial content. „CHAPLIN MARRIAGE

      SPECULATION

      The persistent rumor that Charlie Chaplin and Paulette

Goddard are married is now adorned with the

information that they were married at sea beyond the

twelve-mile limit and that the union was

registered in Great Britain.

      As, however, Charlie‘s boat flies the American flag and

maritime law calls for registration at the next American

port of call, that rather spoils the story. The British Consulate

tells me that, had it been an English ship, the skipper

would promptly have to notify Somerset House in London

from the first English port he touched.

      So we shall just have to go right on guessing, while

Paulette and Charlie cultivate sphinx-like smiles.“
