When reading, he tortures his veitebrae by having his feet, not his head, in the air Long Shots With the Big Shots {Continued from page 57) wagered two thousand on them against Pittsburgh on the New Year's game. If they won, I would be exactly five hundred dollars ahead — and that's what happened. I'll probably play the same system this year, though I hope I guess right a couple of times before those bets get up in the thousands." All sporting events, particularly football, prize-fights and golf tournaments usually find the film people interested to the extent of backing up their guesses with bets. The first fistic encounter of Dempsey and Tunney found the late Ward Crane a twentyfive-thousand-dollar loser. Incidentally, Hollywood took wallopings on both the Dempsey-Tunney fights. Dempsey is a prime favorite in film town. Hollywood has a gift for guessing wrong on prize-fights. In the first place, it is characteristic for an actor to bet on his "favorite" instead of his judgment. The Sharkey-Schmeling bout won scant few bets out of Hollywood. There wasn't any "fav-orite"; that personal element of seeing a pal win was missing. On the other hand, at the regular Friday night bouts at the American Legion you'll find Richard Dix, John Boles and others "taking corners" at anywhere from a dollar to twenty-five dollars a bout. The last time I saw Mai St. Clair he was leaving the stadium with two hundred dollars of somebody's money. Even the kids get a great boot out of what they love to call their "gambling." Joan Almost Broke the Bank "AS a gambler," laughed young Doug /y_Fairbanks, Jr., "Joan takes the cake. She'd bet a dollar on anything, but not much more than that. "The last time we were down at Caliente I nearly dropped over when I saw Joan take out a twenty-dollar stack of Black Jack chips. Believe me, for her that was a terrific plunge. About an hour later, I wandered back by her table and she was exactly twenty dollars ahead. And what was she doing but cashing in! I think she was more proud of that money than any she has ever earned. You would have thought she had broken the bank. You couldn't get her near the gambling tables after that. I think she figured she was getting away with their entire profits. I'm not much of a gambler myself, though now and then I like to bet on the Southern California football team. I think the biggest bet I made, and lost, last year was a hundred-dollar fling on the U.S.C. -Notre Dame game." Sue Carol and Nick Stuart have their own little system of gambling that makes them winners even when they lose. Saving by Gambling "TX TE make bets between ourselves on VV everything that comes along," she explained. "But we seldom bet with outsiders. It keeps the tnoney in the family, and yet we have all the fun of betting. "We have a little bank which is kept just for our gambling splurges. We put our bridge winnings in it, and pay our losses from the same source. In football season, Nick will bet on one team and I'll take the other. Same thing goes for baseball and prize-fights, and it doesn't matter who loses — he must put that amount in the gambling bank. I won ten dollars on the SharkeySchmeling fight and I guess that's one of our largest donations since we've had the bank. "You see, we don't bet much. When we play bridge, it's usually with the kids at a tenth-of-a-cent a point. Seven dollars and a half is our biggest bridge-winning to date, and usually we bet five dollars apiece, even money, on the various games and contests. Even at that slow rate, you'd be surprised how that little bank gets along. In six months we acquired two hundred and eighty dollars." Bebe Daniels is an expert at all card games — particularly contract bridge. To this day, Bebe regrets winning such a large sum from -Samuel Goldwyn, and she won't be satisfied until he has woti back the entire three thousand. As a rule, she does not play for such large stakes. 98
