hurt" And he predicted that Grand United would make her an other cffer.
 "Mayte not right away, but they'll come around She'd be crazy to tie herself up for that kind of moncy."
 Two days later Anne again en- countered Garry Sloan on the set but this time the director did not stop to talk. Remarking his quiz zical smile, she was hotly embar- rassed. Sloan had done her 6 great favor and she had repaid him with what appeared to be ingratitude, Anne would have liked to explain to him that il was not, but he was not alone She could not even thank him.
 T thought of the saving about the serpent's tooth" she told Dan' but Rorimer scoffed.
 Why should it make any differ ence to Sloan? I hope you won't lose any sleep over it. Besides"
 Besides what?'
 Dan grinned. "Oh. l guess his hides plenty thick" Which was not exactly what he had started to say He thought, feeling again that strange antagonism toward the man he had never met: Who cares what Sloan thinks, anyhoW?'
 Dan was going to san Francisco for vacation. An enforced one. " he explained 10 her with a careless laugh. T think perhaps it's the beginning of the end"
 Anne was deeply concerned. Why. what do you mean?" And he told her that several in his de partment had been given two week layoffs.
 Its no longer a secret that Con- tinental is selling out. I mean it's official now. And some big bugs from Lawson Brothers have been parading around and sitting in at mysterious conferences. and pro- duction is at a standstill."

Lay Blame on "Bosses" for Un-
 employment Situation

Between 200 and 250 men, wom- en and children assembled Monday forenoon at Paradise Park, Smalley and Elm streets, to listen to three men labor to secure recruits for the communist party The speakers be- labored the bosses and begged all present to organize and put the mill and factory owners out of their jobs and take over the factories and run them for the working classes.
 One speaker told the crowd that the communist party, being com- prised only of workers, was not a money party, and the speakers had no expense allowance for hotels, etc. and asked all to contribute just a little bit toward helping put the bosses and factory owners out Of business,
 The speakers constantly referred to unemployment, saying that this is the fault of the factory owners who are trying to grind down the workers. These statements brought NiS ouS applause iIolll lHe llleil anu women. Several boys, under their teens, were uced to carry placards around among the crowd, One sign said, We demand a [ hour day 5 days a week."
 There was no disorder. and many who had been drawn to the scene in the expectation of seeing a row between the communists and police left after hearing one of the speak CTS for a few moments.

He turned dispiritedly back to the typewriter which had never looked so cheerless as it did on this hot afternoon. He had been struggling with an idea for a pie ture. At first it had seemed a wonderful idea, but that was be- fore he had begun to set his thoughts down on paper. Now, the more he wrote the more dissatis- fled he became; sheet after sheet had emerged from his typewriter only to be flung disgustedly away after the calmer and more critical reading the next morning.
 Paul Collier still thought it was great idea; Collier was encour- aging.
 You've got the stuff, my boy. Go ahead and lick 'em."
 But Paul, Dan told himself as he frowned at the page before him, did not have girl on his mind. IL was orc thing to write when nothing troubled you, and quite an- other when your thoughts were always getting scrambled up with Anne Winter
 Disgustcdly he got up and trudged to the kitchen for a drink Of water. And then he sat down once more and lit his pipe-which was his device during periods of mental stress to keep from smok- ing abnormal quantities of cig- arets-and tried to think about his story, tried to banish the dismal thought that he was just a piker in love with a girl who was des- tined to do things.

SEVEN LAND AFTER
 BEINGLOS IN FOG
Men Exhausted, Women Hysteri- cal, After Night Off Shore

Scituate, Mass. Sept. (UP)- Three exhausted men and four hys- terical women landed here yester- day after being lost for six hours during the night in thick fog aboard their 25-foot. sloop.
 The mems hands were blistered from rowing the sloop through the night from their position seven miles off shore Reefs at the harbor en- trance imperilled their landing.
 The party included MT. and Mrs. Richard Kingsbury of Florida. their daughter Dorothy, George Kiersten of Pembroke, his sister, Miss Marion Kiersten, Miss Grace Petersen of Cambridge, and MacIvor Redie of Hanover,
 The sloop was becalmed when the party got seven miles out and the men were forced to row. They had covered five miles when fog de- scended and they became lost. They were forced out to sea again as they heard surf breaking on reefs near the harbor entrance.
 Coast guards who had gone out to search for the sloop after cottag- CTS had reported hearing cries for help found it just as Kingsbury and his party were bleaching it.

Rorimer, been nothing more said at Grand United on the subject of her contract.
 Not one word. I guess MT. Johnson really meant take it or leave it."
 Hes just playing poker, Anne. Is the picture finished yet?"
 Almost
 Fred Hurley, she added, had been very kind. He made me promise to work for him in his next picture. But of course" she added, that's just his way. He r.ay not have meant it.
 But Mona said. "Of course he meant it! The girls good, Dan. and she won't admit it; she's al ways looking for an out when somebody says something nice. If Hurley told me that, I'd sure give him credit for meaning it. Huh. II wouldn't give him a chance to forget it."
 And Anne laughed, Mona, she said. was her staunchest sup porter.
 Two weeks later Anne called Rorimer with exciting news.
 Everything has happened at once, Dan"
 "One thing at a time" he said. First did you get a new con- tract?"
 Yes"
 Good. Now go on with the story"
 Anne told it with an eager rush O. words. Paul Golfers story about her had brought numerous newspaper clippings to the Grand United publicity department, and Marty Collins had asked her to try out for part in forthcoming picture at Amalgamated.
 DO you suppose MT. Johnson is psychic or something, Dan? He sent for me right after l finished talking to Collins"
 Not psychic, Anne" He laughed. Just a good guesser. That's why he has that job
 At any rate" Anne went on, he offered me a new contract a much more attractive one-and signed it. And l had already prom ised Mr. Collins I would try out for the part he talked about, so Mir. Johnson is going to lend me tp Amalgamated if they want me-.
 Dan said that didn't prove that Mir. Johnson was big-hearted. He'll charge A!nalgamated more than Grand United's paying you. !. But it's great news, Anne: I'll have to tell Johnny Riddle"
 "Plcase 5o Oh, l feel so happy about it l can hardly talk Don't you think I ought to become one Of Johnny Riddles clients?"
 Well, Johnny's advice was o. K. wasn't it? I approve on one condition that you don't permit him to get sentimental. If you won't let me, I certainly won't stand for Johnny.'

You always think I'm fooling,' . Dan grumbled. Some of these days you're going 10 be sorry for trifling with my affections the way you do I'm going to make you gay and pay and pay" "Horrors." Anne shuddered.
 "Youll see," he threatened dark ly And he was suddenly serious once more; he reached across the table, let his hand finger on hers for a moment or two and Anne saw in his eyes that which caused her to drop her own.
 Happy. Anne?'
 She nodded.
 He said, 50 am I. I'm always happy when we're together.'
 50 am I, Dan"
 Honest" His eyes sought hers eagerly: he leaned closer.
 "Of course, silly! Why shouldn't be-"
 Rorimer smiled and sighed. "Oh, I don't know. Only, I sort of hoped there might be some special reason why you should be-"
 But there are reasons,' Anne insisted. For one thing, you can be very nice, if you only knew it, Dan Rorimer." She paused. And you think of such nices places to go, and things to do. And you've been very kind to me. Now, does that satisfy you?'
 But Dan stubbornly shook his head.
 "Tn tell you my reason, Anne WoIld you like to hear it?''
 But Anne found laughing, ban {, ring ways of evading him that were just. as effective as a definite ly spoken refusal. And though he net her smile with one of his own he was heavy-hearted, realizing that beneath her lightness and her jocularity there was a serious and determined unwillingness.
 Annes method of refusing tc hear him, he reasoned, was her way of letting him know that she did not want to hurt him. and that she wanted their relationship tc stand as it was on the same easy comradely basis. Anne, he knew preferred it that way and the thought held no solace for him.

Dan left the following night for San Francisco. In Chinatown he bought a red Happi coat for Anne and had it mailed to her. It was gay looking. of heavy figured silk, and Anne wired him her profuse thanks. He wrote to her:
 Why shouldn't I have sent it? I cant wear it, can 1?-and l couldn't help buying it. You can't go through those shops without wanting to buy everything you see.
 I've been living the life of Riley - sightseeing like a rubber neck tourist, golfins, horseback riding along a bridle path that skirts the ocean, and eating at lit- tie out-of-the-way restaurants where the food is something to talk about We've never been riding to- gether, Anne. Can't we do some thing about that?"

 "Oh. not much" Paul told him T understand, though, that Adam son is going to stick"
 That's sure too bad" Dan said /, Well, l had a hunch." He won't last long The Law sons are not that dumb"

He stood there by the window in undershirt, trou- sers and house slippers, and behind kim was his typewriter; beside it, sheets of paper.
 He thought back to the night that he had met Anne Winter. and he could not help smiling little ironically at the strange reversal il their positions that a few short months had brought about-Anne from extra girl with only one day of experience, to contract player with the most important of the Hollywood picture companies; him. self from a staff writer at Continen- tai, with a contract calling for more money than he had ever been paid before, to free lance who had toiled for two weeks without producing thing that satisfied him.
 He was more than a little dis nal. He remembered that he had told Anne half jokingly that he might go back to New York and take up where he had left off. He did not want to. certainly; it would mean defeat. and it would mean leaving Anne, and neither would be pleasant

MAJOR LEAGUES ID MEET TODAY
Baseball Mo8uls Gather for Mid-
 Winter Session

New York. Dec. s Bascball's leaders gathered in New York today for the annual mid-Wmtcr meetings of the National nd American lcrr-uos.

Formal sessions begin tomorrow, but today two important conferences were on the program. One was 10 bring together major and minor league cprcscntativcs for discus sion of the draft dispute. The other vas a meeting Of American league club managers called by the league president. Ernest Barnard. to hear suggestions that might be of benefit 10 the league as whole.
 The conference on the draft qucs- ton was to be on an informal na- turc but there was distinct feeling among baseball men in general that the ma jors and the five non draft leagues would reach compromise some time this week.
 The ma jors want the five non q it leagues to accept the univcr- salt draft; that is. they want to be able to "selcct' any player from these circuits-the International. Pa ciic Coast American Association, Western and Three Eye laagues-at fixed price, just as they do from ot nt, ,rir ciplc the minors are ready to accept. it was stated, provided the two groups can agree on terms.

 The lively ball has split major league owners managers into three distinct camps ard all three probably will have lots 10 say before the meetings came to an end.
