 That young gentleman is none other than Robert Armstrong. And Bob should know, since he has been devoting his life exclusively to motion picture acting for some years.
 Il don't know how they have done it, but the heads of the busi- ness certainly have sold the world on the fact that the life of an ac- tor is nothing but bed of thorns,' Armstrong declares.

 Born "vicky" Mysza in Poland, Mrs Pollak was brought to this country by her parents when she was five. Her childhood home backed against the railroad tracks in one of Chicago's poorest sections While her father battled for health and her mother worked in a fac. tory, she did what housekeeping was done and took care of her two small brothers and baby sister. At 15 she graduated from grammar school and set out to realize her girlhood ambition.
 "As far back as I can remem- ber," she reminisced, "I wanted to become part of the swell world outside my neighborhood. The world that lived without knowing that poor people like us existed"
 With her face and figure to help her, she got herself job as cash girl in downtown department store, and ushered in neighbor- hood movie theater of evenings. Later she became saleswoman and began to study beauty culture.
 Somewhere along the brightly lighted road she travelled after leaving her parents drab roof she encountered Joseph Pollak. He. had been in the liquor business lon the legit" until the passage of the Volstead act. After that he entered the bootlegging business.
 "Jo told me he had plenty of money and was looking for some one to share 1t with" continued Dorothy. "He said if I'd marry him, we would have a nice home and children. He was affection ate and kind. He took me to dances and shows"
 After their marriage in October, 1929. Dorothy says he changed.
 He stopped taking me, places" she explained. "He was always jealous of me, but after we were married he was worse. He was al- ways beating me. He was under $1.O00 peace bond not to touch me when he-he came toward me with that pairing knife. I thought he was going to kill me sure that time. That's why Fl shot him"
 The police's failure to find that pairing knife" seems not to have ef- fected the sure-shot sirens chances. Court veterans are offering odds that she will never be found guilty.

 Occasionally a snake whipped himself free from the carriers mouth. then a ''gatherer" would run and recapture it and hand 1t back to the carrier.
 At signal, the carriers danced toward a large circle in the center of the plain. Almost with one mo- tion the snakes were thrown into the ring. "Huggers" stood about the rim, beating back the snakes that tried to escape. Squaws scat tered sacred cornmeal over the rep tiles.
 Then the carriers rushed for ward, each grasping to his breast as many snakes as his arms would hold. The carriers ran into the six directions of Hopi astronomy and flung the snakes from them, to crawl away through the under world" to ta wa, the sun god, and tell him of the Hopi's need for rain.
 The rattlesnakes are not de- fanged, and there is no satisfactory explanation of their failure to bite the Indians.
