- <p> At 155-plus lbs. and seemingly always gaining, ANNA NICOLE SMITH
- is not a model whose appeal is universally understood. But Texan
- J. HOWARD MARSHALL II apparently has no difficulty seeing her
- charms. Late last month the 89-year-old quietly wed Smith, 26,
- in Houston. The Playboy/Guess model, whose first husband was
- a fast-food chicken cook, has found a more sophisticated companion
- in Marshall. He is a former attorney, Yale University law-school
- professor and oil-company chairman. His estimated net worth
- is $400 million.

- <p> Actress TORI SPELLING often appears to be spoiled and ungracious,
- but that, we now know, is not the whole story. When a missing
- teenage girl with Down syndrome turned up near the Beverly Hills
- 90210 set in L.A. last week, Spelling, a star of the TV show,
- spent more than an hour comforting her. Then, like any really
- thoughtful person, she issued a press release about her kind
- act through her publicist. "I saw her and my heart went out
- to her," said the statement. "She had no idea who I was...She didn't know anything about Beverly Hills 90210."

- <p> Few actors leap from the world of Suburu commercials and bit
- parts on Melrose Place to art films, but JEREMY DAVIES is managing
- the transition successfully. Having played a heroin addict on
- Melrose, Davies, 24, is now winning raves for his first starring
- film role in Spanking the Monkey, a dark comedy in which he
- portrays a teenager who beds his mother. He had no trouble handling
- the part. "I love interpreting human nature," he says. "If I
- hadn't become an actor, I would have become a shrink."

- <p> As he led the New York Rangers to their Stanley Cup victory
- this year, coach MIKE KEENAN repeatedly made one promise: no
- matter what, he would not leave the team at the end of the season.
- Now, with four years left on his contract, Keenan says he is
- abandoning the Rangers to coach the St. Louis Blues. Fans are
- enraged, and the Rangers have filed suit to bar the move.

- <p> Don't look for SYLVESTER STALLONE roaming Southern California
- with a Snugli. A DNA test has proved he is not the father of
- Savannah Rodin Stallone, the baby his ex-girlfriend, model Janice
- Dickinson, gave birth to five months ago. Sly recently said
- he had Savannah's "Harvard tuition paid," but his spokesman
- says Sly probably won't be involved in the child's upbringing.
- Despite the test, Dickinson says, "In my heart I know Savannah
- is his child."
