THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Takes Suicide Leap After Hollywood Disappointment; Played in N. Y. By United Press HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 20. The old tragedy of Hollywood, wlwre quick success for a few overshadows countless failures, was blamed today for the suicide leap of blond Pag Entwistle, would-be screen star. “I am afraid I am a coward,” she wrote Monday before climbing to the top of a fifty-foot “H” in the famous Hollywoodland sign, and jumping to death in the rocky canyon oelow. Hous later, her uncle, Charles Entwistle, identified her body. His story of her efforts to win a career in films explained in part her note: “I am afraid I am a coward, and I am sorry for many things. If I had only done this long ago I could have saved a lot of pain. P. E.” A woman hiker discovered the body where it had rolled 100 feet down the canyon after tumbling from the tan sign. Lillian Millicent Entwistle, the girl's real name, came here from New York, where she played with the Theater Guild, her uncle said. An anticipated part in Billie Biyke s new picture, “Bill of Divorcement,” failed to materialize. She then was signed with RKO for a small bit in one picture. When it was completed, the studio did not take up her option. Miss Entwistle was a native of London but came to New York sixteen years ago. She appeared almost continuously for seven years on the New York stage.
ten townships have 30 per cent of the state’s population. This indicates that the problem is greater in the congestion of cities, Brown explained.

In 592 it was between SIOO and SI,OOO, in 239 from SI,OOO to $5,000, in thirtyone from $5,000 to SIO,OOO, in twenty from SI,OOO to $20,000, and in twen-ty-six more than $20,000. Trustees reported a total of 99,576 applicants for relief, more than four-fifths of whom had families. A total of 369,605 persons were aided. In 1930 the total was 255,888. S2OO Loot Taken in Burglary Loot valued at S2OO was taken by a burglar from the home of Rebecca Wyick, 922 South Illinois steet, shq, reported to police Monday night.
