HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 9.-It now
comes to light that w. C. Fields
has the most unusual bank ac-
count in the world, which he calls
his emergency fund. Having had
a very lean and poverty-stricken
boyhood, when he once got started
in vaudeville, he decided to put a
portion of his weekly salary in a
different bank in every town he
played in. Mr.. Fields became more
famous by the day, travelled con-
stantly on four continents, and
now has bank accounts in some
800 separate banks. At the mo-
ment, he is slowly but surely col
lecting his deposits, and putting
them here in one of our local in
stitutionS. But the money he de-
posted in Italy and Germany will
have to remain until he is on the
spot to spend it, since both those
countries have laws forbidding the
removal of deposits from the land.
To make the entire situation even
more confusing, he has a suitcase
the size of a trunk, full of just
bankbooks. One might call him
the poor little rich man.
It reminds one of D. w. Griffith
Of Birth Of a Nation" fame, whom
the agents Of the Alexandria Ho
tel here followed around for years
trying to give him back large
sum he had deposited there, and
forgotten.
Bob Bazooka Burns has a
clause in his new Paramount con.
tract permitting him to make one
picture yearly on another lot, and
between you and me and the
lawyers the first outside epic will
be at r. K. o.

The star is Lily PonS, and hel
stand.in is Amanda Chirot, g

do all the vocalizing for the
sound tests, so Miss Pons' voice
can be spared wear and tear. In
cidentally, Lily will not be seer
at any cafes or parties during
the making of the film, because
other persons smoking hurts hel
throat, and she wouldn't dream
of asking them to stop.

TICKET COUNTING FACTS
Joseph AloysiuS Flynn, now
heating the typewriter for the
Shuberts, sends this department
a bulletin important to theater
treasurers and all who count
tickets. It's about the ticket
counting contest which the Treas
urers' Club of America will spon
Sor at the Hotel Edison. Sol De
Vries, the Winter Garden treas
urer, acknowledged counting cham
pion, will hang up prize of $l0C
for the winner. A matinee and
night performance at the National
will keep Russell Thomas, Wash
ington's champion pasteboard
flipper, from entering this sweep
stakes.
For a long time DeVries has
challenged any box office man in
the world to beat him at counting
tickets. The modern treasurer
does this by magic. In a test al
the TreasurerS' Club, DeVries
counted 5000 tickets in 10 min
