“BROKEN HEART 3 OF HOLLYWOOD" with Louis# Dresser Is a
Warner pleturlzation of this novel.
BTJTOPBIB
Mutually attracted, beautiful Bet
ty Terwilliger and handsome Hal
Chutney arrive In Hollywood as
prize winners of newspaper con
tests for movie tryouts. Marshall,
reputed to be responsible for many
of the “broken hearts of Holly
wood" takes an interest in Betsy.
Hal and Betsy are depressed and
amazed by the number of people
seeking work. Movie oldtimers see
« mysterious resemblance <n Betsy
to someone they cannot remember.
Betsy is handed a scanty one-piece
bathing suit to <fon, while Hal, who
never rode a horse, finds himself
east with a bunch of real cowboys —
CHAPTER Vl.—Continued.
Everyone In the room seemed to
know everyone else; Hal folt lonely,
and out of the friendly circle.
But Hal was, after all, a bright
chap and when he could get his
brain functioning sanely, what with
the excitement and confusion, the
Thontlng and swearing, he grimly
resolved that the wisest course
would bo to conceal from these
rough citizens the fact that he was
a greenhorn. He would watch them
closely, as to. dressing, and maktng
up, and mannerisms—then Imitate
them as he went along. Now or
never. If he had any ability to act,
was the time to call It Into play.
He Industriously recalled all the
he-men cowboyß he had ever seen
on the screen, and with them In
The roar of laughter shook the
dressing table mirrors.
mind he affected a nonchalance, and
hurried to change his clothes.
"Aw, give a guy some elbow room,
can’t yub?” he growled at the pro
fane men on either side of him.
They looked at him quickly; he
was big and husky. But even while
they Btared, Hal threw aside his
coat, tie, and hat with a swagger,
and started to attempt to roll a
elgarstte with one hand —Just as
he had seen Tom Mix do it times
without end, Just as he had noticed
and watched some of the cowboys
In this room doing around him. Os
course, his unpractlced fingers made
a terry mess of the trick; and al
though he tried to hide bla lcoiopt
aess, his dressing table neighbors
•aw through his pose In that flash,
and nudges began to go around the
room.
From that moment some of the
noise died away, as all hands began
to surreptitiously watch and enjoy
Hal’s attempts to prove his manly
right to be considered as "one of
them.”
Hal presently became conscious
that he was the cynosure (or all
•yes, and he thought it was because
he was so good. Of'.course, there
were certain little mishaps, such as
putting on his chaps backward, and
ripping his B. V. D.’s on his spurs—
the latter a stunt that called for
particular awkwardness!—but Hal
thought that he had covered up his
mistakes so quickly and cleverly
that the fellows could not possibly
"get wise.”
"Pulling these on and off every
day for ten years, a guy Is bound to
glt careless 1” he chuckled hoarsely,
after he had discovered that chaps
are seatless, but that he had given
his a seat by putting the front
where the seat —wasn’t.
“Where did you cross brands,
pardner?” grinned one sly puncher.
“Arlzonny!” said Hal offhand In
his best imitation of a hardboiled
rancher.
And the roar that went up when
Hal thus Innocently confessed him
self as an ex-horse thief shook the
dressing table mirrors, and left
Hal exceedingly mystified.*
The assistant director, returning
at this moment from a brief excur
sfon elsewhere, put a quick stop to
the bantering by ordering all hands
on the set While Hal quickly com
pleted his dressing by taking fur
tlvs note of how the other boys had
Slapped Minister’s Face.
(By International News Service)
Whitesburg, Ky., June 15. —Miss
Martha Bates, the young girl who
slapped the face of a minister because
he condemned bobbed hair in his pul
pit, and who was sentenced to forty
days in jail, apparently has the sup
port of eastern Kentucky barbers in
her fight to win her acquittal.
- This was evidenced when it became
known that s group of Kentucky ton
sorial artists were instrumental in
persuading * Governor William J.
THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
their lassoes hitched to their belts,
and so on, the hard-bitted cow
punchers smacked their lips In Joy
ous anticipation of fun on the set
at the greenhorn’s expense.
The assistant director, frantic at
the last minute to discover that Hal
had no make-up on, charged upon
him and pushed him back Into the
Beat, then pattered sunburn powder
thickly on his face.
“Your mug would look as shiny
as a coon’s heel without this!” be
snarled.
Hal had by this time noted that
all executives of this high pressure,
industry snarl—never talk. Pres
ently he was following In the wake
of the crowd of cowboys as they
clanked, booted and bespurred,
down the Iron-treaded cement stair
ways and out of the buildings
across the street to an adjacent lot,
where was set up the exterior of a
Western mining village saloon.
Hal, Imitating the peculiar bow
legged roll of the men ahead of him
—a deformity and a gait that comes
to legs spread since pliable child
hood by the harsh leather of sad
dles and the bulging sides of
horses —toyed nonchalantly with his
lariat and wished that the boys
and girls back in Centipede, lowa,
could see him now. He hoped that
this picture would be shown at the
Coliseum Theatre on Main Street
He made up his mind to face the
camera as much as possible, with
the ulterior thought of appearing to
best advantage for the edification
of his mother and sister and
friends.
In the street outside the building
were a number of small boys, and
cluttered around the actual set It
self—ln the yard, outside the limits
beyond which small boys could nol
penetrate past jaundiced watchmen
—was the usual crowd of hangers
on; extra girls waiting to be called
technicians, assistants. He- swag
gered unconsciously for the benefil
of all these—the small boys In par
tlcular—and swelled his chest to set
their admiring looks. Observing
the many girls around the set, h«
recalled all his Main Street sheik
ing talents and showed off for alt
he was worth.
Unfortunately, owing to his Ine*
perienced twirling of it, his larial
became unloosened and coiied to thi
ground, catching In his feet and
pitching him face first upon the set
directly under the nose of the test!
director, to the vast amusement oi
the onlookers and the other cow
boys who had never relaxed, sinci
leaving the dressing room, in theb
covert watching of his showing ofl
antics.
This, then, was Hal Chutney’s
first entrance upon a motion pic
ture set. He picked himself up oul
of the dust with the contemptuous
remark of the director, “Who Is
this clown?” ringing in ( his ears:
and discreetly betook himself to the
rear of the crowd, which was rang
Ing in a loose group to await in
structions.
V.’ith Hal’s withdrawal from his
immediate vicinity, some of thi)
director's Injured dignity upon bav
Inga mere extra tumble in front oi
him was eased; although for lift
rest of the day he “took it out” on
the entire company. For here was
a worse sin than if a Horse Guartj
had tripped and fallen in front oi
the throne of the King of England
during a levee.
Stablemen brought In and teth
ered to the railing In front of the sa
loon two dozen restive, wild-looking
horses, which Hal eyed with con
siderable misapprehension. Mean
while, the director In a. raspy and
slightly raised voice, through a
megaphone which an unctuous as
ststant held for him, gave curt in
structions to the cowboys.
"Now you punchers are inside the
saloon, drinking see? Skinner
comes out and mounts his horse
see?—then fires his pistol and
dashes away—see? When you hear
the pistol you rush out pellmell—
see?—and leap on your horses and
ride in pursuit of him—see?”
Hal, listening and nodding with
the rest, felt himsc.f trembling all
over with nervousness. He looked
over the horses with diffident eyes,
trying to select a tame looking one
Now, just how was it that hq, had
seen Tom Mix and BUI Duncan
jump upon their horses in Just such
situations? Let’s see from the
left? No, from the right. They held
the horse’s mane with one hand,
and the saddle pommel with the
other. But first didn't they put a
foot in the stirrup? No—they Just
Jumped ou in a flying leap from the
ground. So his thoughts raced—
dubiously. Somehow those horses'
backs looked very high above the
ground, now that he was faced with
the necessity of vaulting upon one.
The director was continuing;
“It’s a cinch of a scene see?
Nothing but mounting and riding—
see? So we won't rehearse. Just
shoot right off—see? Mind now,
put some life Into it—rush out in
a fury, for you know that this bad
man has just seduced the post
master's daughter see?. Keep
shouting ‘he ain't done right by our
pal'B gaV—see? That will Infuse
spirit Into your acting All right
let’s go!"
