fife in Hollywood

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright. I>3s King I s»atur»» HuhDcul* lo« HOLLYWOOD, Calif.. — The flrat prize tight Wil) Rogers ever attended had to be that dinnuted dec lion b e twee n Art "■ 1 asky and Ise » Ramage. When Will and Spin- B cer Tracy, who K* ha d persuaded him to go to the ■Tj *’*' ’ Olympic Audito- 1 J Hunt. were tiling out. the gallery IT * hounds were still Ng in a furor. 1 “Can you beat that?” said Will. mHMR “They're even booing the audience now.” Will —— ■ Rogers One of the strangest stories I ever ran across in Hollywood is the plea Paul Brisson has just received from a woman in Lancaster, England. Several days ago the fan mail department at the Paramount studio received a small package addressed to the former prize-tighter and English musical comedy star The girls opened it expecting to find one of those eccentric gifts that moviegoers love to send to their favorites. Instead, there was a strip of pewter, 4 by 6 inches in size, and bearing no mark of any kind. Along with it, however, was a letter that is a classic in macabre psychology. The sender whose name I withhold, requested Brisson to write his name in pencil on the metal plate. The object was to have it etched into the pewter on its return to England. The woman explained that she is sending similar requests to all world celebrities. When her collection is complete, she wants to have them made into her coffin. The current dispute between the actors and agents recalls that these “10 per cent” gentlemen have always been in a peck of trouble. the nerve that characterizes the most successful of them was best illustrated in a telephone conversation occurring a while back. A producer, one of the really hie ncn of the industry- was infuriated because a certain agent was trying to sign some of hi- stars over to another company. He got the offender on the nhon<- ■ n 1 <-h it ' “If it costs me J 10.000.000 I'm going to find out who is running this business—you or me." At the other end of the wire, the agent, whose very bread and butter was at stake, broke out into a c< Id sweat Rut he snapped back into the ohone : Rheta. today reefed in a women’s prison hospital room after her admittance to begin a 25 year term.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT FRIDAY. MARCH 30, 1931.

"Don't t»' a sucker-—4'U sell out for $3,000,000." Dick Barthelmess, nearing ths finish of his last Warner Brothers picture and wanting to play a bit iiefore he starts his free-lance career, will take Jessica and the children and go away somewhere. It may lie Europe, or it may be up on Vancouver Island, where he and the Clive Brooks spent a happy holiday a few years ago. But, emphatically. he won't stay in the film colony. “Hollywood is a pretty dull place if you're not active, he says. “What we need here is country life, like they have in the east. Where people come to see each other on horseback.” The same desire is causing other film people to push farther away from the studios —to buy up dozens of ranches in the San Fernando, some to go even greater distances. A few of the fortunate ones—Winfield Sheehan, Watterson Rothacker —have found their Eutopia in the more accessible “Happy Valley,” only an hour's drive from Hollywood. There, in a telephoneless world, they forget the hectic rush of film-making. Like all her fellow players, Bette Davis can’t help being nervous about kidnapers. So the other night, when she discovered a car following her from the lonely location of the “Os Human Bondage” ; troupe, she stepped on the gas. Through the rear vision mirror.

Subsequent to the arrest, the counterfeiting plant with about a halt-million dollars in counterfeit money was seized. Werllng. through his attorney, i will tell the judge that he used I S4OO he had cashed toward pur chase of a supply of radios for the Christmas holiday supply to get the fake money. He hoped for reimbursement and a share in a reward. A chronological account of Weri Hug’s defense, corroborated by | Kintz, opens with Werllng hear- ‘ ing that counterfeit money was flooding Fort Wayne and north 1 central Indiana. "I called on Fred Jaebker.! I cashier of the Lincoln National I bank and was shown a spurious ; i $5 bill.” Werling’s statement to * i his attorney says. "1 talked to j I Kintz about running down the i I makers. Kintz, told me that while i he was serving a liquor ’ sentence ‘ he became acquainted with a counterfeiter.

Van Pelt left the . car and came bar k later, saying a sample was Impossible but that he could get <SOO or more of the money. On November 23, after several attempts, Van Pelt induced Kintz ami Werllng to make a second trip with the promise of a sample. Werllng's defense, at this point, is tliat he did not know Van Pelt until that day. He Hun went Into I detailed description of how be trailed Van Pelt and claims that he obtained enough information tor the federal operatives to ferret the counterfeit plant. A main point in Klein's attempt to prove Werllng's insatiable desires for sleuthing will be the testimony of Ralph Yager, an insurance man from Decatur. A few days la-fore leaving for ' Chicago. Werllng. according to ■ Klein, drove Yager to a home in I Fort Wayne. In pointing it out to Yager. Werling is said to have j remarked: "See that house. If 1 am bump- ‘ ed off. investigate the man that lives there." A day before leaving Fort Wayne with Kintz and Van Pelt, he is said to have told Yager th'it he was going on a little "detective work." "Remember what I told you about being bumped off." Wer ' ling is said to have told Yager, i
