A Sure Bet on the Screen Track
Robert Gordon is keeping fit throughout a summer in the city, and incidentally, is nearing the end of his dash to stardom.
By Charles Carter
YOU'VE heard of the hot pavements and the sweltering canons of the City of Dreadful Night — New York in July.
But Robert Gordon argues that if you want to make the effort you can get fresh air and healthy exercise even in that place of crowded humanity. Perhaps this philosophy has made possible the beautiful apartment overlooking Central Park, which he shares with the beautiful "Pink Lady" of musical comedy fame — Alma Frances, who last year became Mrs. Robert Gordon.
Bob misses the mountains and sea of his California home, but he contents himself with the substitute in miniature which spread out just below his windows. His routine for the day is not unlike that which he followed while in the army.
At six-thirty : reveille. He uniforms himself in a track suit
and takes a sprint through the park, climbs a tree or two in rivalry with the squirrels, dashes home for a cold shower and breakfast, then off in his car for the motor trip to the studio.
A schedule like this doesn't allow for much skylarking at night, and both Bob and his charming wife enjoy staying quietly at home in the evening to any sort of diversion which the great city offers, for they're wisely planning to make hay in the heyday of their youth, in order that they may have an orange ranch in California later on.
And incidentally, while Bob is keeping fit by this healthy mode of living, he is also sprinting along at the head of the screen profession, competing with such champions of characterization as Dick Barthelmess, Robert Harron, and others.
A group of wealthy men, after a careful examination of the screen stadium, decided to stake their money on Gordon as the best bet in the stellar race. He is to have a company of his own to produce stories dealing with characters similar to Huck Finn, which he played in "Huck and Tom" with Jack Pick ford, and such vigorous roles as the one he filled in "Missing."
