Studio 390 127 West 42d St., New York City NAZIMOVA "PINCHED" FOR SPEEDING— SEES HUMOR OF THE SITUATION. Nazimova vouches for the truth of the matter, which is that she didn't want to do it and didn't mean to do it. So many motion picture stars force their way into the newspaper columns by the simple expedient of "stepping on the gas" along one of the tempting stretches of asphaltum in Los Angeles and Hollywood. Nazimova would be the last person in the film world to go joyriding. She is opposed to fast driving as a reckless menace to pedestrians as well as to the motorist. Therefore it was the humor of the situation that appealed to her most forcibly when one day she was "pinched" for speeding. The Russian star was at the wheel of her rakish roadster on this particular day. She started out from her residence in Laurel Canyon to pay a flying visit to a friend, who was ill in a Los Angeles hospital, before she left for a week-end at San Diego. Her car was rolling along on high when she was astonished to see a khaki-uniformed officer drive his motorcycle across her path and hold up his hand. "Why do you stop me?" she asked, curiously. "You're speeding — thirty-two per." "Why, that's not fast ! Anyway, I am hurrying to visit a patient in a hospital." The motor "cop" laughed. He laughed again. Then he laughed once more. "I've heard that one before. Third time today. Must be a lotta people bedridden just now." The officer yanked out his note-book. "Gimme your name." "Madame Nazimova." (With a haughty ■air.) "Madame Na — who? — oh, never mind. Let's have your number. You can tell it to the judge." And so Nazimova was "pinched." DREAMS A-PLAY By Yvette d'Auvergne Dear Dreams! we would find you! With roses, we'd wind you, And merrily bind you To Dawn, Noon and Night ! But where are you hiding Or slyly abiding, That all of our chiding To naught can incite? Oh, is there no road to your world, golden-white ? Pray tell us the way — by Day, Noon, or Night ! 'Tis just over yonder, Where fairy folk wander; See Shadowland's gateway ! where sits the Dream Queen. Each youth and each maiden, With laughter is laden ; They're carrying homeward some smiles they have seen ! Dear Dreams ! we have found you, a-play on the Screen! STARRY EYES (To Anita Stewart) By Lee Burt In your look dawns glad surprise, Starry Eyes — Starry Eyes. In their depths youth's dreaming lies, Starry Eyes — Starry Eyes. 1 would have you keep that look; Wiser far than lore of book, Fresher than a mountain brook, Starry Eyes — Starry Eyes.
