MYRNA LOY’S WORK FOR U.N.
Return To Films At Fifty-Five Myrna Loy, the favourite screen “wife” of the thirties —as Mrs Nick Charles in the “Thin Man” series —has been busy since the- war as an active worker for the United Nations, attending United Nations debates and advising the United States delegation to U.N.E.S.C.O. Now, at the age of 55. with her figure and features almost unchanged, she has started to concentrate on her film career again. She will soon be seen in two new films—“ From the Terrace” and “Midnight Lace.” Miss Loy is still attractive enough for romantic roles. In fact, during the Hungarian crisis, she was attacked by a Communist newspaper for “using her Hollywood sex appeal" to entice the United Nations Assembly President, Prince Wan, into accepting a petition condemning Soviet aggression. But while she is still cast as “the perfect wife,” her own married life has been far from smooth. She has been married four times.
