rs SUN TAN :

That's why Dram called Bret, I
imagine. She can hold her breath,
strike the water, and then come up.
They'll pull her in, then"
But where" asked Tubby, docs
Fragonet come in?"
They'll get that scene later. AS
he brings her along, Dram wants
to follow in the boat"
"Oh :" said Tubby in curious
tone.
Now the speedboat was bearing
of from the platform toward the
swim-foat with It's diving tower
Here it stopped long enough to allow
Montez to debark, and without a
moments hesitation she climbed to
the first station on the diving tower.
Il could dive long before I could
swim" 10 told Tubby nervously, but
she certainly has nerve to 60 into
that depth with those breeches and
boots on"

THERE were some anxious mo-
L ments while Montez stood like
the little soldier she was, and
Dram jockeyed for position in the
boat.
1t was difficult, for not only did
he have to select a camera angle
which would not show the tower,
but had to hold that position fairly
well until the wake of the boat sub
sided AT last 10 saw him glance at
the camera man, saw the camera
man nod-and then Dram sig
nailed to Lolita Montez
She did not dive. She fell just
as though her descent had been
sudden, unprotected. Bret kneeled
low and alert at the bow of the
boat, out of range of the camera,
waiting. 1t seemed to 10 that the
actress stayed beneath the surface
for minutes, and when she did APP
pear she flung one arm upward,
thrashed the water with the other.
10 almost screamed. Why didn't
Bret jump? And then it came to
10 that precious footage of film
which would show her instant of
helplessness.
In another second the boat slid
forward, Bret reached down and
pulled her aboard with one power
full movement.
"Whew!" breathed Marsh. I'm
glad that's overt"
Tubby leaned weakly against Jo
You know. 10, 1 think that Mon
tez girl is a honey"
She's more than that" said 10,
and Tubby never knew how sin
cere 10 was in her assent.
The boat sped back to position
near the platform, for Dram was
working swiftly now before his
high-priced star should get a chill.
Near the platform the crafts motor
shut off again. and Lolita was low
cred into the water, clutchmg
Brets arm until Fragonet had
dived in and reached the boat
10 saw him reach under Lolitas
arms and start up with her. Then,
with an awful, empty feeling, she
saw that Fragonet could not keep
both himself and Lolita afloat. She
heard F'ragonet yell at Dram, an
grily and in panic The two heads
sank below the surface of the lake,
and then appeared-only the head
of Fragonet!
He began swimming toward the
boat alone, just as Bret Paul struck
the water And as 10 stood there
watching, sick with fear for the lit
tie actress, she experienced the sud-
Gen and irrelevant realization that
it had been Peter Fragonet who
had saved her life When she mad

Lolita Montez and the cameraman
lolled in the boat, wordless, and
smoked cigarets. Then, suddenly
throwing his arms in the air, Dram
climbed back into the runabout and
helped Bret Paul in after him.
Wish I knew what this was all
about" muttered Tubby. Il sup
pose we'll have to wait to see the
picture"
Not at all. said a voice behind
them. and they turned to see Doug

III tell you" he smiled. In the
picture Miss Montez is supposed to
fall from a fairly high bluff, and
Dram wants a closeup shot as she
hits the water. I heard him telling
her about it this morning. He wants
her to 90 down and then drift up
as she would if she'd fallen that
way"
But she can't swim!" exclaimed
