STEPHEN ARMITAGE MILDRED LAWRENCE HAROLD JUDSON HUCK CONNOR “RICH GIRL—POOR GIRL BEGINNING TUESDAY, MARCH 26th THE NEW BRITAIN HERALD VIVID! STEPHEN ARMITAGE was a New York automobile salesman . . . He knew about “high pressure” methods in business, but Pamela Judson, daughter of the wealthy owner of the Jud- son ‘Hotel, taught him “high pressure romance” . . . The kind that is a round of dinners and shows and night clubs . . . The kind that is nice IF a fellow can af- ford it. MILDRED LAWRENCE was a public stenographer in the hotel owned by Pamela’s father . . . Stephen had really meant to be Mildred’s suitor . . . He had gone to the trouble of catching a sub- way thief just to make her acquain- tance, but Pamela had other ideas ...And Pamela also had money ... And could get Mildred’s job taken from her., HAROLD JUDSON was Pamela’s weak-willed, money- spoiled brother . . . In his shallow, selfish way, he was in love with Mildred Lawrence . . . And Mildred felt an obligation to save him as much as possible from himself...But Harold’s dissipations finally brought hin to the mercy of a racketeer . . . His weak- nesses destroyed him PAMELA JUDSON never let the bigger things of life interfere with her petty, selfish desires. .. Stephen had to keep his luncheon engagements with her even if it meant sacrificing the sale of the higgest sedan in his company’s show- room . . . And Stephen may have heen Mildred’s “one man,” but he was more fortunate to be one of Pamela’s playmates, Pam- ela thought. HUCK CONNOR was a racketeer, who posed as a “stock broker” . . . Mildred distrusted him and the faked telegrams he dictated to her frequently . . . Telegrams that mentioned large sums of money and were intended to impress Pamela and her money-worship- ping brother . . .:They DID impress them . . . And Huck’s plans looked as if they would succeed
