MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD. May 80 CN.A.NA).-
A pretty little movie actress cried so
hard to keep her diamond wedding ring
that a hard-hearted bandit relented
and gave it back to her. And thus
Marian Nixon, sincere in her sentiment,
handed over $4,000 worth of gems
from her fingers to a train bandit
such a nervous lather that he never
noticed $4,000 worth of diamonds about
her throat.
Even bandits have their nerves
Holo-upS in the colony are as neatly
timed as talkies. And trains are coming
in for their share of the masked mems
interest. 1t only required seven minutes
time for a hold-up on the train, the
bandit successfully looting Marian
Nixon. Edward Hillman, her husband,
and Detroit business man, Frank
Lehman.

Yesterday morning the village was in
q hubbub over the incident Rumors of
gangster arrivals flcated through the
colony some five months ago. At that
time two or our leading hostelries were
supposed to be harboring score or so
of boys in pin-check suits and broken
noses. Their grooming was as good as
their English was bad, it seems, and
they knew too much about Chicago to
pass muster.
Talk about them died down. Things
move too rapidly in this part of the
world to hold interest for more than a
fortnight. But there has been a coed
deal of activity among the light-fin-
gered gentry of late-enough to give
substance to the rumor.

Why It Is a "Steeplechase. ~

The term "steeplechase" needs some
explanation. A steeplechase was origi-
nally run in straight line across
country to some fixed mark, easily
seen. That was generally a church
steeple. Hence "steeplechase" races.
