NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1930. A ~ NEA SERVICE /nc. &V 'E | | | /i RNEST/LYNN BEGIN HERE TODAY Dan Rorimer, a scenario writer in Hollywood, formerly under con- | tract but now free lancing without much’ success, is in love with Anne Winter, who, beginning as an extra, | has progressed rapidly and is now under contract to one of the largest ~studios. Anne lives with two other girls, Mona Morrison, a gay little red head. and Eva Harley, a quiet -girl who at times is very bitter and who has had a tragic love experi-| ence. Eva and Mona are extras, but Mona works only occasionally and Eva very rarely, and this is another reason for her despondency. Paul Collier, who writes a. daily movie column for a string ot news- papers, shares Dan’s apartment with him. Collier accidentally meets Eva on Hollywood Boulevard one day. “‘and they run into . a movie tor named Frank Maury. Maury, velops, is the man who has broken Eva’s heart. At sight of Eva Maury colors and hurries away and almost faints. Collier takes home. Late that night Anne W telephones Rorimer to ¢ over.

He saw Mona holding on desperately to Eva, who was trying to get out; | and he seized the struggling girl| by her wrists and forced her gently | back to her bed and made her sit | down. | “You must be quiet, Eva,” he told | half hear went ‘her, keeping his hold on her wrists. |any danger of Eva losing her mind? | over Hollywood,” Dan said And he said, “You'ré frightening | Mona; can't you see what you're | _.doing to Mona?

Collier grinned guiltily. do you mean?” “You don't know, eh?" Paul said, “I ran into him over the Lawson Brothers' lot. and I asked him how come all the em- | barrassment the other afternoon. Frank got insulting, so I pulled his| nose for him.” !

A Hollywood “‘opening” is bally- It is a magnifi- exaggeration, an implausible of press agentry and vanity. It is a piece of night as light as a thousand suns, and a procession of smiling mask$ flanked by roped-off adulation. “It reminds me,” said Dan as the roadster turned a'corner and they beheld the great glare, “of a piecq of magnesium ribbon burning in the dark.” And Anne smiled and agreed. “Egcept that it's much noisier.” cent, He parked the car a block away and they loitered along in the shad- ows, watching the mass of curious ones on either side of tfe long canopy that stretched from curb to entrance.

He knew that she still had Eva on her mind ] Paul Collier had been invited to spend the week-end out of town at one of the beaches. On an impulse Dan telephoned Maris Farrell, - and on Sunday he played tennis with her. Later in the afternoon they went for a drive among the hills and they had tea at a little road- side inn. P Maris was an agreeable com- panion. He was glad that he had called her up. She made'him tell her about his work, and when he became deprecating and pessimistic she laughed at him. ; “I'm sure you're going to do some- thing really fine some time. You see, I've been talking with Martin Collins. Do you know what be said aboyt you?' * “He said, 'If they don't spoil this fellgw Rorimer he's going to write some real picture stuff.’ I think Martin Collins dught to knoty, what he’s talking about.” All this %vas pleasant: it fed his pride. Dan felt confident once more. On the way know, you're Dan Rorimer.” He had been driving along in silence for some minutes, the wind uffling his hair and whipping his tie about. his neck, and now as he turned to look at her curiously he sensed that she had been studying him, ] “How's that?” he asked “You're moody., aren't you?" Maris laughed and gestured with her hand. “Up like this one min- ute, and the next—way down here.” “Am I? I never gave it much thought, Maris.” 5 ’ “I suppose not,” and nothing more about it. At her suggestion they played tennis again two mornings later That was the morning he learned that Amalgamated had rejected his back she said, “You the strangest person, she said plot; but along with the rejection | had come the request to try some- thing else: it had just missed, had been voted down only after a story conference in which there had been considerable difference of opinion Dan extracted little comfort from that: a wmw’'ss, he told Collier, was as good as a ile. “Well, send it around, my boy.
