BUSY MOVIES DELAY TRIAL OF ALMA RUBENS Actress Smiles, Judge Scowls at Second Continuance. Bu United Pret LOS ANGELES, Cal., Jan. 13. Busy Hollywood is making it difficult to bring Alma Rubens to trial lor disturbing the peace with allegedly wild and boisterous parties at her home in the screen colony. Two weeks ago, when Miss Rubens’ trial by a Jury first was scheduled to get underway, the pretty actress arrived in court forty-five minutes late. She found the trial had been postponed and was forced to put up SSOO bond for her appearance. Defense Delays Case Thursday Miss Rubens was in advance of the hour set for her case. The courtroom and corridors were packed. The judge was on time. So was the jury. But when Judg; Northrup called the case he learned that Rita Carewe, her husband; Leroy Mason, and Mr. and Mrs. Finis Fox, members of the screen colony, who are listed as prosecution witnesses, had not put in appearance. It was said they were unable to leave their work. Judge Northrup visibly was provoked. Miss Rubens smiled her lovliest, for this time it was the prosecution and not the defendant who was delaying the trial. Finally, Judge Northrup ordered the case reset for trial Feb. 5. Denies all Charges Charges were brought against Miss Rubens by Mrs. M. Uhl, owner of the bungalow court in which Miss Rubens resides. Mrs. Uhl said the actress used profane language, prowled about the yard with a flashlight, peering into windows and that on one occasion Miss Rubens threatened to beat her. The defendant has denied all charges, explaining that her flashlight expedition was in search of a gadget which dropped off the gadiator and fell out the window.

Bu United Preen PETERSBURG, Ind., Jan. 18.—A petition to the general assembly that legislation be enacted to protect lowland farmers against flood waters is being prepared by residents of the White river bottoms west of here.
