DEPARTURE OF STARS OF SCREEN SLOWS UP PROBE OF SHOOTING (By Vnited Press) . FREEPORT. R I., June 28. "Fade out of screen stars of Freeport, the Hollywood of the east," balked efforts
of authorities today to learn the de
tails of the shooting of Otto Hirsh, millionaire, following a party given by Reine Davles, movie actress. Mrs. Hirsh, beautiful blonde, was
freed on $25,000 bond after she had
been charged with assault with Intent to kill. She Immediately rushed to the bedside of Hirsh and a reconciliation was effected. Hirsh, who will be released from the hospital today, said: "I don't know who shot me." In view of this development, it was believed by many that Mrs. Hirsh never will face trial on the charges preferred against her. According to Elvin Edwards, assistant district attorney, Mr. and Mrs. Hirsh were the only witnesses to the shooting. Both Were Drunk "They were both drunk," said George M. Levy, attorney for Mrs. Hirsh. "We don't know who did it." Edwards was balked in his efforts
to ascertain the cause of the shooting because the favorites , of , the screen who are believed to have attended the lawn party of Miss Davies went into hiding. Names of Miss Davies' guests were not disclosed by the hostess. "The party was over and I was in bed," Miss Davies told Edwards. "I heard a shot, but did not witness the shooting." Miss Davies told Edwards that Mrs. Hirsh had said the Saturday night of the party that her husband had kept her a prisoner in their home.
An Unusual Garden Party
By FREDERIC J. HASKIN
WASHINGTON, D. C, June 26. The garden party season is just opening, but the White House has already had its only affair of the sort that is scheduled for this year. Two thousand wounded war veterans, some rolled in wheel chairs, some limping on crutches, some guided by other eyes, have passed in a long line and been greeted by the President and Mrs. Harding on the White House Lawn. Garden parties are more or less alike when private citizens receive
out-of-doors. A presidential affair, however, is different. Whether the
President be a Washington with a leaning to courtly ceremony or a Jefferson with bluff disregard for pomp, an official atmosphere surrounds all functions at the Executive Mansion. They are as distinctive in their blending of the formal and the informal as any court ceremonies of Europe. A veterans' garden party is no different, except that the contrasts are more

But the blue, gray, and white of nursing uniforms, and the khakfof the service, and the rolling chairs, crutches, and bandaged arms and heads dominate the scene.

The endless line of veterans, accompanied by their nurses, and the young women invited to help entertain them, mnst wind in a long serpentine through the corridors of the White
House, out into the gardens and across the lawn to the oak tree beneath which the Chief Executive and his wife are receiving. Everyone must be presented formally to' the President by a white clad aide. The President speaks a word of greeting, and listens, perhaps, to a brief speech the veteran tries to make. At another big reception the guests would find it extremely difficult to murmur more than a hasty "how do you do" to the President. The line is long, and each person is shuttled by as quickly as politeness permits.
But a veteran with only a stump or
a right hand to offer his .Chief is different. He may hold up the line a moment or two. Mrs. Harding then shakes hands, and Gerenal Pershing, the last in the receiving line, greets each of the veterans. 1 Aides stand about to see that a small clearing is kept around the receiving line. There formality prac
tically ends. The veterans can wander as they please about the shady grounds. For most of them it is a great event, and even for the Cabinet ladies and high officials this particular function is an unusual experience in the round of administration enter-
tainments.
A Colorful Scene The scene is unusually colorful. The closely cropped grass, red rambler roses on the fence, gay red and

They are keenly interested in recognizing and pointing out to one another Vice-President and Mrs. Coolidge; the Cabinet officers and their wives; Brigadier General Sawyer, the dignified little doctor, who guards the President's health; Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., Assistant Secretary of the

It is six o'clock and the party is over.
