Before they know it, their little
dinner has been turned into q
gambling party. Naturally, few
refuse to enter into the spirit
of the thing and chance a few
dollars on the roulette wheels or
the other games. But usually
they leave large sums of money
behind.
At recent party given by an
innocent theatrical agent, some
of the most popular stars in the
movie set dropped thousands. The
agent himself, as it happened,
was heavy winner.
Randolph Scott admitted to in
Inmates on the "Wagon Wheels"
set at Paramount that he was
one Of the losers. He wouldn't
say how much, but admitted it
was little.
This system, however, is due for
a quick death. Motion picture
people are becoming wise to it,
and hosts are beginning to turn
down the seemingly-generous
offers of the gambling clubs.

too many rackets before.

ROSBY WRITES TO OUR EDITOR
Lederer q Disciple Of Peace
Takes Hot Issue With
An Old War Doq

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 8.-Para-
mounts man Of peace and one
of its old war dogs have claShed
again and made up-and left
the rest Of the studio wondering
what it was all about.
It all began when Francis
Lederer, now preparing to do
Pursuit of Happiness" remarked
that acting is a less useful pro-
fession than such others as work
ing in the cause Of world peace,
the advancement Of science, and
so on. Most Of the actors mis-
interpreted his statement and
thought he'd sighted their pro-
feSSion.
Knowing that Lederer leads
the World Peace Federation, Sir
Guy Standing, who was knighted
for his work with the British
navy during the war, spoke up
and said that if acting could do
nothing but produce pacifists,
then it would be a useless oc-
cupation indeed. Which prompted
a reply from Lederer.
'T am shocked to find among
our actors here in Hollywood"
he wrote, somebody like Sir
Guy Standing, who considers,
according to his statement,
pacifists as something so de-
teStable and useless as to say
that If acting could not have
been able to do more than con-
vert people into pacifiStS it
would be wasted indeed.

Party Racket Newest Addition
To FiImIand SwindIe Games

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 8.-The
"party racket" is the latest gold
mine for the slickerS in the pic
ture colony.
The victims, while often screen
people themselves, are usually out
siderS who are invited to meet
the stars" and then are fleeced
in stock deals and other phony
business ventures.
Made wary by bitter experience,
the celebrities are apt to become
suspicious if approached with in.
vestment propositions, but are
only just beginning to catch on to
this new racket of using them as
bait for the suckers.
Francis Lederer, Gary Cooper
and Sir Guy Standing recently
were invited to attend a sumptu-
GUS party given by new acquaint-
ance, but sidestepped at the last
minute because Of tipoff on the
record of the host.
A few days later Lederer re-
ceived an invitation to another
party, but is holding his accept
ance in allegiance pending a few
quist inquiries. His manager,
Richard Monter. is looking up the
reputation and connection of the
man who sent the invitation.
Another stunt which may or
may not be classed as a racket is
the system certain clubs are using
to lure dinner parties into their
casinos.
Newspapers are followed for
lineupS on the large motion pic
ture parties scheduled to be
held. Then the hosts are con-
tacted with offers of free dinner
service and music if they will
hold their parties in the club
Frequently the offers are &C
cepted.
The screen people arrive with
the expectation of quiet dinner
parties, but after dinner the
tables are cleared away and the
doors of the roulette room thrown
open. The guests are escorted

between our conceptions OF
pacifism. Perhaps to Sir Guy
Standing . pacifist Is identical
with q conscientious Objector.
So far as my understanding Of
the word is concerned, and &C
cOrding to the Encyclopedia
Britannica, q pacifist is some
body who is In favor Of peace.
'WeIl, If 1 would be able to
be q member Of . profession
that could convert the pOpula-
ton Of this whole world into
pacifists, meaning people who
would be in favor Of peace, and
that way Iiberate this whole
world from war, I would con-
slider this profession more Inn
pOrtant than any others.
81 would not mind, then, in
the least, to be q member OF
profession which some people
consider useless"
To which Sir Guy Standing
replied:
"NO one who has gone
through the last war could pos
sibIy fail to recognize the ad-
vantage and great necessity Of
peace, but sometimes peace can
be achieved only by war, and
the general Interpretation to-
day Of q pacifiSt is one who
would not 60 to war. 1 am
delighted to hear that Mr..
Lederer does not belong In
that classification"
Which makes eVeryth n
lunky-dory again.

Choose Mate Near
 Your Age; Play Safe

All the world loves a lover, but when the swain happens to be three times the age of his beloved the world js moro apt to smile or even laugh out loud.
 Maybe this is cruel.
 Maybe h man Of so sin- ccrely can love q young thing of swcct 1g. And maybe the girl can return his affection.
 Personally, I doubt it. Oh, yes, the coupe can think they love each other enough to make q success of marriage. But 70 many others hnvs thought the same thing with the result that shortly there nfter another marital crash has been checked up.
 If you haven't notice this, it's because you don't get around much or don't read the newspapers.
 That's why tho world is 50 cynicnl about May and De- ccmbcr unions. There are ex- captions. You may know of one. But exceptions are rare enough to prove the rule. and the rule is: It's much snfcr to choose n life mate within a few years range of your own ngc, Five years, six years, oven 10 may not matter.
