HOLLYWOOD, Cal, June IA
There have been innumerable in
stances of celluloidia's beautiful
maidens taking off from five to fiji
teen pounds of weight to get a par
ticularly DESTROYS role. But Holly
wood today is gazing upon the first
actress who actually has to gain
weight for the same reason.
The actress is Winifred West
over. divorced wife of William S,
Hart-and she has gained forty
pounds in the last two months.
There's a mark to shoot at, girls.
Miss WeStover's normal weight is
100 pounds. but when she stepped
on the scales just before starting
her first days work in LummoX,
the indicator stopped at 1875 pounds.
Of that thirty-five pounds can be
charged off to her costume, leaving
her own weight at 100.
Girls who think they have
hard time taking off five pounds
in order to retain their shapely fig
ureS should try to put on weight
once-then they would experience a
real hardship declared Miss West
over. L have dieted and gone
through various forms of exercise
to reduce on numerous occasions,
but I never concentrated on it as
I have had to in my campaign to
gain weight for this picture.
During the last TWO months I
have become actually lazy through
purposely avoiding all kinds of exer-
else to gain weight and lose my
figure. I have just been loaflng and
eating all the sweets and other fat
producing foods I could.
When I finish the picture I nat
urally will have to exercise and diet
to regain my figure again. But that
won't bother me in the least.
"Aftsr the way 1 have had to
eat, I've full meals every day, IN
addition to candy and other sweets,
it will be almost pleasure to go
without eating for while"

Miss Westover's role of a servant
girl made it necessary for her to
gain the additional weight in order
to assume the correct appearance
and posture of the drudge she por-
trays.
Specially made shoes soled with
fifteen pounds of lead will give her
the big, shuffling feet of the char
acter in Fanny Hurst's novel. Twen-
ty pounds of additional lead weights
concealed in various parts of her
dress aid materially in giving her
the necessary stopped posture.

Three Young Men and One
Girl Dead; Striking
Similarity Found.
BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS
MA Service Writer

NEW YORK, June 14-Suicidc-
or murder?
In a weller of conflicting evidence,
puzzling testimony and seemingly
irreconcilable facts, three of the
most battling recent mySteries-in-
volving the shooting of four persons
remain unSolved.
Within a few weeks three young
men and one young woman, all
members of prominent and Well-to-
do families, have been killed, and
elements of striking similarity run
through each case.
Under storms of public criticism,
further probes have tended to dis
prove the original verdicts of sui
eide.
Student Shot Down
First came the death of Walter
Huntington of Windsor. Conn, son
of wealthy family and studen at
Harvard university. During a week
end visit to his home his body was
found, neatly laid out in a field a
few miles away. Authorities first
called it suicide.
Huntington was right-handed. He
had been shot behind the left ear.
The gun never was found. but
bloody handkerChiefs we're in his
pockets
Was it murder or suicide in the
double killing of Horace Roberts
il. and Ruth Wilson of Moorestown,
n. J.. early this month? At first it
seemed obvious that Roberts had
killed Miss Wilson and then shot
himself. The fathers of both the
slain supported this view.
Stories in Conflict
Roberts and Miss Wilson we're
found in her bedroom by her father
when he returned from a bridge
party. She was dead, and he was
diving from bullet wounds.
At first it was said they we're fully
dressed. Later it was admitted that
they were unclothed. Originally it
I had been said that the father, un-
able to open the front door. had
climbed to a porch roof looked into
4 his daughters room and then re-
turned to the front door, which he
( forced.
State authorities say it was I'M
/ likely that Roberts fired the three
shots into his own head after STAY
ing the girl-.two shots, yes, but the
Thru. which was the fatal shot
they still say. would have been i'm
possible.
But at the investigation concluded
Friday it was decided that Roberts
