Just as in St. Moritz - Hollywood feminine stars don winter sports togs and hie themselves to the snowy climes so conveniently located near the film capital.
Gladys Swarthout, starring opposite Jan Kiepura in "Give Us This Night", proves her theory that beauty and health go hand in hand and,
garbed in bright green jumper and dark green skiing trousers seeks her share of the wintry out-of-doors.

I've also seen this with and without autographs.
