However, with the growing popularity
of talking pictures, more and more
actors from the legitimate stage are
turning to the films as field OF
artistic endeavor.
For anyone seeking to "break into"
the movies today it is almost impera-
tive that they have personal acquaint-
ance with some studio executive, plus
a good sized bank account or personal
income, and above this, of course, a
complete wardrobe and the ability to
act.
Even though you may have some

get the chance to appear before the

They hear Of the dozen or so enor-

feel that by coming to Hollywood
they, too, have an equal chance to
reach stardom and receive a SINH

But figures do not lie! There are
a definite number of pictures to be
made and definite number OF peo-
pie are required to make them. New
corners must possess the ability to
displace some one already In the
game, or failure is theirs before they
even start.
It is unfortunate, indeed, that the
outside world seldom hears Of the
thousands of ambitious youngsters
who annually come to the movie cap
ital in a vain search for the elusive
"stardom."
Beginners have a long row to hoe,

Without demur. Mrs. Fletcher led
him from the footwalk to the drive
on the left, following it to the garage
behind the house. She switched on
a light and the detective saw both
cars inside, the limousine parked be-
side the roadster in which he was
interested.
Rankin climbed into the roadster
and lifted the right pocket flap. He
ran his fingers deity through the

CHAPTER VII

Hell Night


The middle-aged, faded woman with
motherly, gentle features in the farm
house along the Spring Mill road
paused in her account to glance at her
hard-bitten, ungainly husband, then
continued for Rankin the tale Of Mon
day nights incident.
"When this fellow first knocked on
the door," she related, at was SO late
we was going to send him about his
business. Imagine waking up good
folk, who's in bed two hours already,
just to make phone call! And he
looked like regular tramp, wearing
torn clothes, pair Of dirty overalls
and boots. But after he began ex-
planning who he was, sort Of took a
liking to him, because he was young
and seemed to be telling the truth; so
I insisted on Pa opening the door for
him. The young chap said he was
from the college in Philadelphia and
some other college boys, in kind of
Initiation, had stranded him out here,
He had no money to get back with
and wanted to use the phone to call up
somebody who would come for him
and drive him home. The crazy things
these students is for ever up to, nova
daysr' she concluded emphatically.
s.There amt no sense in it at allw
II quite agree with you, Mrs. Bel

say the boy reused you about mid
night? Have you any idea who this
other person was or the phone num-
Der the boy gave?"
"The exchange was Gladwyne, /

lady he called Misses or Miss Fletcher,
I didn't catch which. But didn't pay
much attention to the rest of the num-

faction he felt at Mrs. Bellows state
ment.
'Then you heard the conversation
between them?"
Eyes, we stayed right beside the
young man while he talked" Mrs. Bel
lows admitted. "In fact, Joe and
had to help him tell this Fletcher
woman exactly where the house was
and how she could reach 1t. After
that, he hung up"
''What is the distance from Glad
wyne to your home, Mrs. Bellows?'
Rankin asked.
''It isn't very far. 1t only takes
twenty minutes either by way of the
Spring Mill road or along the Mont
gomery pike"
These facts were precisely what
Rankin had deduced and expected to
ascertain. Since Jordan and Mrs.
Fletcher could not have met before the
hazing, they must have communicated
with each other afterward; that was
the only means by which their rem
devious on Monday night, to which
Mrs. Fletcher's letter referred, could
have been managed. Manifestly. she
had proposed it at the dance, because
of her husbands absence on Monday.
When informed that the fraternity
spree made it impossible, she ques-
lions Paul Whitaker to learn what
was In store for the PLEDGES. For Of
that, Stuart himself was ignorant.
And on succeeding. she had arranged
to rescue him from his predicament
