BERLIN LEADS IN GAYETY
Teutonic Thoroughness Shows II
Gambling Casinos Forecast.

BERLIN (N.A.NA).-There are
many who now declare Berlin to be
Europe's gayest city Certainly it is
the lat st to bed and the most or
ganized of cities in its gayety.
There is Teutonic thoroughness and
method about Berlin's amusements. It
is apparent in German gambling. Ger
mans are good gamblers and they will
soon be showing the world how good
they are, not in foreign casinos, but at
home, for they propose to introduce
casino gambling on an unprecedented
scale at their own principal spas This
will be a new source of revenue and
another one of those departures that
put Paris on It's mettls.

HOLLYWOOD, January % (N.AN.A)
While Clara Bow waited to hear the
illry's verdict In her suit against Daisy
de Doe, another stormy petrol OF Holly
wood, whose career has been as bizarre
as star crossed, as tragic as the "tt'
girls, folded her wings.
Alma Rubens, known from one END
of the village to the other as one Of the
most tragic and brilliant figures ever
created by motion picture fame, sue
cumbed to the pneumonia which had
kept her lowering on the shadow line
between life and death for several days
past.
And high on one Of the hills Of
Hollywood, up where you could seem to
reach out and touch the stars with
your fngertips, q young star OF the
arms, her house guarded by police-Ann
Harding, most brilliant OF the present.
day constellation and victim Of series
of threatening letters, which resulted
Wednesday evening in q definite plot
to rob her isolated home In the OUT
post district.
A taxicab driver, who overheard his
passengers planning to rob the Hard
ing home, told the strange story to the
police. The men decided to kill him
them plotting, and he escaped, wounded,
only after a severe struggle.
The bandits then took the cab, from
which the driver had leaped to save
his life, and proceeded up the hin to-
ward the Harding Bannister home.
But they did not carry out their eve
ning's work as planned, doubtless due
to the fact that they feared the driver
would report the case Immediately.
When local authorities checked up with
Ann Harding they found that threaten
ing letters had been causing her con-
siderable perplextty and worry.
From the quiet and uneventfId Au-
tumn which this village enjoyed, the
coming Of Winter has brought gang
threats, ferment and trouble galore to
the tinsel town.
Not only Is Daisy de Doe worried as to
the outcome Of her trial and Clara Bow
eager to secure conviction which win
clear her Of all possible charge Of per-
