At the ■ noon hour a delicious dinner was served anil a large white cake centered the dining table decorated in j pink. A chicken dinner was enjoyed and the afternoon was spent

climax ol the evening was when Ling stepped up to the microphone and triumphantly announced that his laundry had just joined the NV A. The ancient art of duelling is the hottest topic of conversation in Holllywood today. All the gossips are burning to know about the meeting [between Leroy Prinz, Paramount [dance director, and the former Gerl man officer with whom he had a date to fight with sabers on Saturday I night. Prinz has figured in dozens of fistfights. and his record entirely belies the traditions of his calling. At the age of 15, he ran away from home and joined the French Foreign Legion. Later, he served in both the French and American aviation corps, surviving 14 crackups and emerging from the war with a silver plate in his head and various other war scars. Along with his dance-directing, this St. Joseph, Missouri, boy then mixed into flying ammunition to the Mexican rebels and training Latin flying cadets. A few years later found him putting on floor shows for a string of Chicago cabarets reputedly owned by Al Capone. The Chicago venture ended when gangsters took the dance-director for a ride, beating him cruelly and breaking both of his arms. Leroy has been in Hollywood since 1931. . . k The main question now is: Did the duel take place?” And the answer —no matter what they tell you—-is yes. Find a former German officer with 16 . stitches taken in his face and you Wil have the proof. Ks « Gene Raymond once more as- d sumes the role R of composer. The B J, blond star has «k. »> .Jka written a new SHk ” song which he has dedicated to Joan Crawford and which he ' . hopes the studio Gene will use as the Raymond theme number of “Sadie McKee.” Not so long ago. Gene’s song, “Brief Moment.” was dedicated to the Columbia picture of that name. DID YOU KNOW — That Bing Crosby once worked as a property boy in a Spokane theater?
