MARY P|CKFORD
VERY HAPPY
DOUG s BACK

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. % G.N.S).
She wore a simple blue dress that
matched her eyes. Her butler
brought wine in exquisite glasses
and little cakes. She smiled the
enchanting Pickford smile.
And then Mary, Americas Sweet
heart for 20 years, in one of those
rare, friendly interviews which
seem more like pleasant, i'm
promptu conversations, told how
she is between pictures
She said she didn't mean the
term literally, as it usually is
meant in Hollywood, but that it
described figuratively her mental
and emotional status at the mo-
ment.
Doug Very Busy
Down the hill from Pickfair,
Beverly Hills dream house" of
Douglas Fairbanks and his bride
of a decade or more ago, Doug
was racing around the United
Artists studio, preparing to en-
bark upon a huge producing pro-
gram.
Only day before yesterday he
had returned from IA months
abroad-a long, tragic time for
Mary who believed their idyllic
marriage smashed forever; a
hectic time for even the dashing
Doug himself what with Lord
Ashley's divorce suit against Lady
Sylvia Ashley on file in the Lon
don courts, naming Douglas as
the cause Of the trouble between
the English nobleman and his
wife.
Have Already Met
But now he was back. He and
Mary already had met two or
three times and possibility of a
reconciliation between them was
in the minds of friends and fans
the world over. But she says:
II can't talk about it. It
would be like wearing my heart
upon my sleeve for all to see.
"Of course, am very, very
happy Douglas is home again.
One is always glad to see old
friends"
"And when that old friend
Is ones husband, one is doubly
glad to see him."
The little mistress of Pickfair
revealed. perhaps unintentionally,
the hurt of those past IA
months when Douglas was racing
around Europe. She explained:
"It has come to me that
you never know yourself nor
your strength nor courage until
you are tested. And"-this
with a wistfuI smile-"I guess
it is good thing to have
troubles because, through them,
you find out about yourself"

The driver ordered three gallons
Of gasoline and one of the girls
gave the attendant $40 in 25-cent
pieces in payment of the Ascent

ing that the change be paid in

The attendant noticed Federal

coins.
In Ocean City. N. j., meanwhile
an open Cadillac parked briefly
in an open air parking space and
an attendant observed two Fed

floor.
Occupying the car were a hunch-
back and two companions who
subsequently drove away in the
direction of Hammonton, N. ].
Police were frankly hopeful this
morning that the two cars might
contain some of the gang that
perpetrated the most daring
holdup in the city's history.
In New York, police officials in
charge of the hunt we're consider
ably heartened by the news that
the Federal Government had in
terested itself in the case.
Assistant Chief Inspector John
J. Sullivan characterized the crime
as the best planned and most
carefully executed robbery he had
ever come in contact with in 30
