The judge said the pro- ducer was wrong. But Miss Windsor would I"hh‘r stick to pictures anyway. Worrying over her ‘“personal troubles” such as that alienation of affection suit—has taken too much of her | time, she says. | “My mind is made up to ca‘x- | centrate on the screen now.” The “comeback” picture is Swan Song. in which Claire plays the | mother of Anita Louise, with John- ny Mack Brown and Kenneth Thomson in the cast. Formerly under contract to M- G-M, Miss Windsor freelanced for istent “travel bug” that kept her commuting between New York, Hol- | lywood and Florida. “I guess I stayed | Hollywood too long,” she says. “It| | would have* been better for my career had I stayed home and worked in pictures. I must make a comeback now because I have de-| pendents to support.” | | Among these is her 15-year-old son from an early marriage. i away from GOODBYE LAW BOOKS The John Davis Lodges appear to have cast their lot permanently | | with Hollywood. | When Lodge signed to a con-| tract here which took him from | his law practice in the east, bflgan“ his movie career he was not c:r- tain that he would continue it.

SYNOPSIS: Frank Grahame, avi- ator and ezplorer, has seen a vul- turine face peering through the window of the movie executive My- Dery's office ; later he follows Jan- ice Kent's car in a tazi because ho has seen a second car with three suspicious-looking men in it trail- ing Miss Kent’s timou There is a collision. and Fra ocks ont the driver of the secon takes Miss Kent home. Frank is draien to the beautijul movie star. He is disturbed by the disappear- ance off the Mexicai coast of his friend Langton. the famous avi- ator. and interested by the pros- pect'of a contract with Myerg's rm. Chapter Five INTRODUCING SPIN T WAS natural that Grahame be asked to come to Hollywood on an “opportunity contract”. It was natiral that he should accept it. Grahame was quite willing that he be “found.” He loved the jungle; he would always love it, but civiliza- tion had begun to take on a more substantial glamor that he had ever thought possible. He would always feel a poignant ache at dawn or dt sunset. In Holly- wood flocks of parrots do not spin like vivid green wheels against a background of old rose, smooth sa- vaunahs do not shoulder between sullen walls of jungle, nor do strange flower scents wrap you when you | sleep. Nevertheless Grahame liked cit- fes, or at any rate, this one. He had discovered two old buddies among | the flying stunt-men. Another had “gone native” and played heavies. These spoke of still others that he would remember knowing well be- fore he quit piloting planes for piloting jungle expeditions — per- sonable, adventurous fellows that he had known in far corners, with whom he could yarn in vainglorious exaggeration. He was about to make his decision to stay when he met Janice Kent. As he helped her from her car and across the lawns to her Beverly Hills house he was sure that this accidental meeting was about to add pleasant finality to this decision. A maid took his hat from him within the entrance. Janice §miled toward him as she mounted the stairs. “I'll be down in a minute or two,” she said. “I'll phone Mr. Greene in the meantime.” * In the drawing room, standing be- fore the open fireplace, Frank thrust bis upturned palms toward ‘the crackling logs. it seemed incongru- ous in these tastefully appointed surroundings of civilization to allow himself to think of sinjster shadows, of furtive pursuit: yet a frown of abstracted reflection remained on his forehead. Thoughtfully he rubbed at the slight soreness of his right knuckles. He could not drive away the mental image of the vullure like profile shadowed on the studio window Some qnn memory (alully stirred— obscure ag the hushed pulse of a native drum felt, rather than heard, across miles of jungle. RAHAME, home In his apart- ot stared moodily at lhe alternopn paper on his lap. With an angry gesture he pushed away the paper and stood dp. He turped to dhotber mah sgated where a west: ‘erly §un’s rdys slanted jn. “Tell me, Spin,” he said. “You koow this racket out here. What in hell do flaey mean by publishing all this tripe? I'called’ you over here five minutes atter | bought this pa- per. You Work for Myberg and the Consolidated; so does Janice, and so 1upposé, does this little lar Jreene. Look! .. . He kicked the paper to- ward the other, Spin Wlnllow grinped. He did not alln;e at the paper but contem plnsd with a loving l‘;sorptlon the contents of his tal) glass. “What's, it say? You tell me, Frapk. Did Greene say you fought desperately with & hundred-thugs and snatched the swooning Janice from their bajry clutches?” Grahame storted. “Something like that, pnly worse. | thought there was something phony about that litle ant whep ! met him last njght. He asked me if | bad any baby pictures. Bapy pictures! He bad the guts— about two o'clock today—to phone and ask about them agafn . . . said he wanted them for an article he was calling, ‘Babyhood Romance Flowers in Tragedy. 1 thought be was kidding, but 1 bought this paper Just " He laughed frostily. “But he wasn't.” “Moreover it sald that Miss Kent was confined to her bed with sbock. She was all righ when | left her last night—onless Greene shocked ber with an outfine of what he was go- ing to write today. | phoned today to | find out it sbe really was ili . .. She |a Trall, del fitle tbing—" " ‘Widslow laughed whole-beartedly. | Wil 1 “Hold on, Frank. You phoned and couldn’t reach her? “Yes, it worried me. [—Say, do you know ?” Winslow chuckled Into his glass. “She was at the studio with Myberg and Ortega and me. She wids con- fined all right but not to her bed. There's a new picture coming up— a honey—foreign stuff. She's to be the golden haired lead; I'm to fly the stunts. “They were discussing who'll play opposite her, but they who'd fit until the continuity men hack out a plot ...

RAHAME'S the other. “Who's Ortega?” “A gentleman from Central Amer- ica, Mexican, maybe.” Winslow drained his glass and set it down. “l can't figure him myselt. H& showed up here a month ago with a lulu of an idea. Well, you khow the publicity these Chichen Itza ruins in Yucatan are getting? He says he knows bigger and better ruins fur- ther in that country with more jungle aroind for the atmospheré shots. “You know how Myberg loves his authentic backgrounds,—of should —Iit you've looked at hi§ plctures. Well this Don Raoul Ortega's idea is to usg that old Maya business as thé foundation, You've read stories of the Slond gods those ancient fellas used to worship. “Well this is to be a blond goddess picture, or at least she Is to be his bride. The Bride of Quetzalcoatl is the tentative name." He laughed. “Myberg said he didn't like the name. It reminded too many people of pants and vests.” Grahame smiled. He liked this gossipy fellow whose nerves were of steel beneath his happy-go-lucky, eynical ellerlor But he wanted to know more this man Ortega whose pame Jaulcs Keiit had de- fettded so arbitrarily the evening before. He decided to take Spin partly into bis confidence. He told him that Miss Kent seemed to agree that the idga that the accident may have been placned uetil Ortega’s, name was brought definitely iato focus as the party responsible.
