July 22 —(UP) Al Jolson, famous screen and stage star, used his fists on Walter Winchell, newspaper columnist, be- , cause Winchell wrote a scenario based on Jolson’s love life and sold . it to a studio. That was what Jolson told the United Press today as the Hollywood wise .boys thought the bit of impromptu pugilism in the Hollywood Legion Stadium, might have been a publicity gag. df it was, it was a painful one for Winchell. The commedians blows’ were powerful and well directed. Winchell, trying a counter attack, was held back by , spectators. Winchell’s story was based on his romance with Ruby Keeler actress and now Mrs. Jolson, Jolson said.

- «... ~ SYJiVXYSIS Attending the premiere es her lateat motion picture, beautiful Leni Luueska, the star, ia confronted by a shabby, emaciated man, who emerges from the crowd crying. “Leni! It is I. Karl Kruger. Do you want me to tell the whole world?" Leni turns white. She tells the man she will talk with him inside. Lucky Cavanaugh, a gambler, fascinated by Leni's beauty, saunters into the theatre after Kruger. He prevents Kruger from making a scene and has him placed in a private office until after the show. Cavanaugh then bribes an usher to seat him in Leni’s hox. During the performance Douglas Gates. Leni’s elderly escort, proposes to her. She is tempted to accept him to get away from everything. In the office next to Kruger’s, thieves are robbing the safe. Leni leaves her box and goes to Kruger. He taunts her with, “It is not pleasant to have a starving bum hanging around—not when he happens to be your husband!” He wants recognition as Leni's husband and all that goes with it. She refuses but he says he will wait for her to think it over. CHAPTER FIVE With the return of Leni to the box, Cavanaugh lost all interest in the story unfolding on the screen. Gates had moved over to the seat next the rail and was sitting utterly quiet with his head dropped slightly forward. The fragrance of Leni’s perfume precoded her into the box. Without removing her eloak, she sank into j the inside chair beside Gates. Cavanaugh was so close to her that he could easily have reached out and touched her shoulder. The color had not come back to her face; he sensed the painful beating of her heart. When she leaned toward Gates, Cavanaugh heard her disjointed utterance. . If I marry you ... no matter what scandal . . . protect me from the whole world? Douglas ...” She waited for an answer, but none came. The squareness had left the man’s shoulders; he was relaxed and a trifle rounded. His breathing was deep and steady. This was the greatest ironic tragedy that ever happened to Leni Luneska. A man had drowsed away in the midst of bis wooing. Tears formed in her eyes and one of them glistened on her cheek. Os the four thousand people in tne theater. Lucky Cavanaugh was the only one to see and to understand. Slowly his hand reached forward and grasped one of hers in the darkness. His grip was warm—firm —young. Leni did not know whose hand had gathered around her own. But something magnetic and strengthening generated in the secret clasp. There was a pressure of palm and fingers which, instinctively, she returned. “The dooi behind this box is open,” Lucky Cavanaugh leaned forward and said in a low voice. “Let’s slip outside and get a breath of air.” And all the while on the screen, Leni Luneska was smiling and laughing. But it was quite a different story in the box. Cavanaugh had made a bold stroke and he knew it would be successful. Leni turned and looked straight into his level, steadfast eyes. For a moment, each probed the other with unwavering gaze. “I do not know you,” she'said—but there was uo withdrawal of her hand from his. “Nevertheless. I know you,” returned Cavanaugh with a smile, “and that puts us fifty percent of the way home already.” She was aware of an encouraging vitality in bis words. They flowed into her heart like balm.

1 -- IL IMM! JiiJlw If FSn / “I detest these pathetie and appealing roles.”, Leni stated. “And don’t try to protect me”.
Almost immediately she eeased to be unstrung. v Like all people who have reached s a mountain peak she had virtually t expended herself in the effort. Star- r dom and exhaustion were synonymous and now—the return of Karl v Kruger! Life, at last, had succeeded r in wringing tears from her. i The strong hand holding her own t seemed, at this moment, her only t grasp on safety. • r “I will go with you,” she said. She made the statement as i though she were about to leap off a precipice —as though it were I sheer madness. i One of the side doors of the the- < ater had been opened for ventilation. Cavanaugh, with his hand 1 under Lent Luneska’s elbow, stepped out into the feeble light of t a concreted areaway between the s buildings. The man dressed as an 1 usher lurked near the door and, I apparently, paid them no attention. “Smoke?” I Cavanaugh offered his cigarette < case. The flame of his pocket lighter r threw a little glow on her smooth c white chin. Leni drew eagerly upon 1 the cigarette and immediately her i nervousness seemed relieved. He noticed that her teeth were per- I fectly even and sparkling; that her s lips were warm and sensitive. r “Shall we — promenade?” she c said, giving him a bright look from v which all distress had been erased, 1 She said it as lightly as though s she had not a care in the world. "We’ll do anything you want to ’ do,” said Cavanaugh. t He looked down into her clear eyes with a smile. Her head was thrown back a little and she re- c turned his smile with a touch of gaiety. She was unblemished and t enchanting. Her soft hair formed a pale golden halo around her face. His common sense told him her h smile was a mask—that she was s still an actress. s “What I want is quite simple— t but impossible,” Leni said. “Perhaps you are a miracle man. Maybe h you know away to make people brave when their hearts are like water?” C u

“Don’t tell me your heart is like water because I won't believe it,” said Cavanaugh. “The excitement tonight probably made you a little nervous.” They had strolled along the areaway to the end and were forced to retrace their steps along the sweating concrete. The air was close with the smell of buildings—a dank contradiction of the buoyancy in Cava- 1 naugh’s breast. “How long before you want to go back inside?” he asked abruptly. “I don’t Want to go back at all—but I must,” said Leni. “All I needed was a cigarette and a breath of air.” But Cavanaugh detected the tool- ' lowness in her words. “You are not going back yet," he | told her succinctly. “I wouldn’t consider taking you back under a half hour, at least. You are still a very beautiful but groggy young lady.” Leni raised defiant eyebrows. “I detest these pathetic and appealing rolsu,” she stated. “And don’t try to protect me. You are a nice man—but don’t spoil it. You caught me off guard for a minute. That does not mean I have placed my life in your hands.” Cavanaugh had heard many people talk with a curdle of aggressiveness in their voices. They had never impressed him as being secure. But he was not certain now whether Leni Luneska was finding her lost poise, or whether she was still acting. “Whatever made you think I wanted to protect you?” he asked her lightly. “Don’t you?” “Only against eveVy man —except myself.” “You are like all the others, then?” “Only more so.” Lem sighed. “1 suppose I shall have to put up with you.” Her small hand inside his arm pressed shghtly. You’re a nice man. I think I shall know you, better.” Cavanaugh assured (To Be Continued) Copyright, 19J2, by Robert Lhstnbuted b, king Feature.
