WHISTLED AT FATE; GANGSTER IS SLAIN “Shark,” Murder Suspect, Sneered at Warning, Shot by Strangers. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 9.—Richard | Fishman, 24, whistled & prediction of | his own death, and it came true. Fishman, called the “Shark,” by po- lice, was suspected by them of four slayings—those of William Marzano, | a newsboy; Herman Horwitz, a gam- | bler; William Bruckner, a cab driver, and Ely Orr, an official of the News- paper Drivers Union. He denied all | of the accusations. Two weeks ago he was arrested by | Sergt. Timothy Donovan. | I asked him,” said Sergt. Donovan, | “if “he didn't wake up sometimes at | night and kick off the quilts' to scare Orr's ghost off the bedpost. I told him he'd get his before long. Know what he did? He put a sneer on his lips, turned his face to the window and began to whistle “Some of These | Days.” Today the “Shark’s” body lay in a morgue. Thirteen bullets were fired into him by a pair of strangers in a | tobacco shop last Saturday. The slay- | ws escaped. | TYPHOON HITS LUZON Philippine Storm Damages Fields,| but Misses Manila. | MANILA, November 9 ().—The worst typhoon experienced in several months ruck the Island of Luzon yesterday d caused serious damage to the sugar cane and rice crops, which were about to _be harvested.

Greta Garbo’s Private Life Actress Objects, But Her Brother Adopts Her Stage Name—Swedish Star Interested in Movie Fan BY RILLA PAGE PALMBORG. CHAPTER XVIIL Greta Garbo now seemed to be thor- | oughly enjoying her home. | “Never will I be without a place .of my own,” she often said. | She liked nothing better than to bring her friends home to dinner. It never bothered her if there was little on hand to eat. Whatever she was to | have was good enough for them. For days she would be very gay. Then sud- denly she would refuse to see even her close friends. Gustaf Norin always knew when one of her spells of refusing to see any of her friends was coming on. “Sometimes she would grow angry over something that went wrong at the studio,” Gustaf said. “Again she would be furious over some article about her that was published in a magazine “She had a collection of Swedish ex- | pletives she used on these occasions. She would storm around the place and refuse to talk to any one who tele- phoned or see any one who called. Read Movie Magazines. “She always locked herself away from every one whenever she received one of the large bundles of foreign newspapers and magsines her mother and brother sent her every few weeks. “Most of this package was magazines and papers on motfon pictures. Garbo especfally those about herself, and cut- ting out many of them. “She was always anxious to get all the American motion picture magazines. | | Often she would send me down to the drug store for them days before they | were due. Somtimes she would walk down to inquire for them herself. “After Garbo had read all the Ameri- | can magazines she would have me wrap them up in heavy brown paper and mail them to her mother. Many of the articles were marked, especially those about herself, to which she wished to draw special attention.” | The' fact that Garbo was ecager to read the fan magazines will be illumi- nating news to most motion picture | writers. For-Garbo pretends to ignore all that is written about her. Couldn’t Understand Mother. One afternoon, when Gustaf was serving coffee to Nils Asther and Garbo | in the garden, Garbo said: “I never will | be able to understand my mother. I send her money and ask her to buy her- self some fine clothes. But she will not. I want her to move into a nice apartment in a better part of Stock- holm, but she will not leave her old neighborhood. My money will never make my mother happy, no matter how | much I make.” | “Garbo used to write to her mother and brother nearly every week,” Gustaf said. “The one other person with whom she corresponded regularly was her | mail it. | own pictures, tithough she seldom at- | seriously. THE EVENING Magazines. former chum Mimi Polack, now Mrs. Lundell. “Garbo used to talk her letters out | loud as she wrote them. She generally | kept calling in to me to spell words for | her while she was writing. “I remember one time when she was | writing to her friend Mimi. When she | had finished this letter she stuck almost | two dollars’ worth of airmail stamps on it and asked me to go right out and “Stamps were Garbo's one ex- travagance. She always put on nearly twice as many as she needed. She seemed to think that the more she put on the faster the letter would go. Brother Adopts Name. “Garbo was all upset when she re- ceived a letter trom her brother saying thet the motion picture company for | which he was working wanted to change his name to Garbo. “She said that she had made the name of Garbo, that it was her name, | and that there should be no one else using it. She cabled her brother not to allow the companv to use it. She told him it was far better for him to make a name for himself. | “But he answered that it was too late | The company had already billed him | as Swen Garbo. . “Garbo was very fond of this brother. She kept a large portrait of him stand- ing on a table in her living room. That and a photograph of Mauritz Stiller that she kept in her bed room were the only two portraits she had in her house.” Ancther thing Garbo does that few people realize is to study herself in her tends a premiere, even of her own plc- ture. “Garbo smoked about § package of denicotined cigarettes a day,” sald Gus- taf. “She said that regular cigarettes made her nervous. She inhaled with een relish. “One day while T was serving lunch to Garbo and her business manager out in the garden I heard him call her Garbo, as he often did. She looked him over coolly and said, “Miss Garbo, if you please. He couldn’t take her “You always call me Harry and I have always called you Garbo." Without changing her expression, she answered, ‘Miss Garbo, if you please.’ And after that I noticed that it was always Miss Garbo. “Garbo found that her neighbors | LOEW’S COLUMBIA | NOW PLAYING GRETA GARBO WITH CLARK GABLE in “SUSAN LENOX, HER FALL AND RISE” STAR, were keenly Iinterested whenever lhr‘ stepped into the garden. She usually had an audience when she went into the pool. This annoyed her very much. “The patio, with porches on three sides, was the only secluded spot. One day, while Garbo was at the studio, 1| fixed it up for her. First I strung elece | tric light wires across the top of the open patio. I attached several lights | and shaded them with Japanese um- brellas turned upside down. Then 1 brought out several small rugs and tables and chalrs. Garbo was de- lighted with the result “At night it was very gay and tive with the lighted lanterns. It was a typical setting for a crawfish party in Sweden. “During _the | crawfish deason in forc WASHINGTON, D. .

Then platters piled high with crawfish cooked in salted water, seasoned with dill, are set on the tables. “Big plates loaded with Swedish hard-tack are brought on, and huge mugs of ice-cold beer. A big pot of steaming coffee sits at one side. Friends take turns serving this spread to their friends until the season has passed. “Garbo often said that all she needed was the crawfish to make her think she was back in Sweden.
