Blonde starlet Yvonne Lime (High School Hellcats, I Was a Teenage Werewolf), 90, died on Jan. 23. Lime was spotted while acting at the Pasadena Playhouse, and began appearing on TV (December Bride, The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show, Dragnet, December Bride, The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis). Her first movie was the big-budget (though low-quality) The Rainmaker, but she soon found herself cast in the delightfully lurid B-films that become her legacy: the two above-named, as well as Dragstrip Riot, Untamed Youth, Speed Crazy (she was also an unofficial Elvis Girl, having a small part in Loving You). Lime continued in TV through the 1960s, when she retired after marrying TV producer Don Fedderson. She devoted the rest of her life to her family and philanthropy, including International Orphans (which opened schools and orphanages in Japan and Vietnam) Operation Babylift (which helped evacuate children after Saigon fell).
