 From. the moment the auctloneer took his place on the platform, un- til darkness halted the sale, the bidding was spirited.
 Adolph Menjou, one of the three picture stars recognized at the sales, was the only purchaser for the film colony. He paid SS90 for an antique cabinet and Sl,7oO for q Spanish carved screen.
 The portrait of Senorita Caditar- ra by Beltram Masses, which hung in Falcon Lair, former home of the actor, was bought by Jules Howard of New York city, who purchased the estate itself last week for s1A5,- 900. He paid s1.9O0 for the DOT trait and said it would be returned to Falcon Lair.
