HORSE HERE
In Hollywood
TO STAY A SPELL
Bv HENRY McLEMORE

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. %. tUP) -
Hollywood finally has decided that
the horse is here to stay.
For years the film folk looked
on the horse as just something
used in western movies or some
thing one sat on uncomfortably III
order to show off ones new riding
clothes.
Now that horse racing has taken
such a hold on the state of Cal
ifornia. the movie celebrities have
placed their stamp of approval on
this noble beast and scores OF them
own stables. Silkworms are work
ing overtime to provide sufficient
material for their silks. and studio
talk is studded with such words
as hooks, withers. workouts. fur
long. and handicap. When the
stars speak of the camera it is just
as likely to be the one that takes
a photo finish as the one that
records their acting.
One of Hollywood's biggest men,
Louis B Mayer, production chlet
of M-G-M has gone plum wild
over horses. The sight of anything
carrying the standard horse equiv
alent of name. tail and ears is
enough to make him whip out his
check book and ask about the
price. If he continues to buy hor-
ses at the present clip, it won't
be many years before he Will have
cornered the entire horse market
Mayer paid S300,000 Tor hOrseflesh
at the Saratoga sales and has been
buying right and left ever since.
He was named no fewer than sew
en- horses for the Santa Anita han
dicap. and has signed George
Woolfe to ride the important
| stakes.
Harry M. Warner president OF
Warner Brothers; Harry Cohn,
president of Columbia. and William
Lebaron, Paramount's production
! head. are other executives with
competent stables.
Among the actors and directors,
owners badges are almost as COM
mon as drivers licenses. Barbara
Stanwyck is mistress of Marwyck
ranch and her partner is Chico
Marx. Joe E Brown is another
who will bid as high as cats back
for a horse he likes. His biggest
hope IS Cascabelito, South Ameri-
can horse that cost him in the
neighborhood of $4,000
Al Jolson drops to his knees in
supplication, not song, every time
his Totem Pole goes to the post and
| Mae West backs a stable that runs
in the name of her brother. Jack.
Bing Crosby is sole owner of one
stable, and part owner of two 9TH
ers; and has such horses as Ligar-
oti, second choice for the 100000
handicap, and High Strike, favor
ite for the rich California State
Championship. Among the direc-
tors, Raoul Walsh. Dave Butler
and John Cromwell are the most
prominent owners. Walsh recent
/ ly brought over Courtil from
France for short shot at the han
dicap Cromwell's 2year-old, Val
ley Lass is favored to win.
