- WRHAM CHRflNlBlE . Then the Dempsey-tlihhons fight was owr. and the tent-slimy. and Patsy. left Shelhy for parts un- known. The newspaper men scat- tered :tll oyer the lfniteil States, but they earriml the story of Patricia Salmon with them. The result was that Flori-n]. Ziegfeld wanted her for "The Follies." But no one knew where she was. There are so many small towns. and the Show she was with was not famous. Finally the Mayor of Shelby located the rom- pany in Musselshells. Montana. and there Patsy received a telegram of- fering her an engagement on Broad- way. Of course she accepted the other. but insisted that she be allow- ed to give the Hy]an-\\’elty players two weeks" notice. so that her place could be filled. Tm» munths ago the company was playing in Shelby. Montana. at the flaw Hf “Iv Ihénuis‘i'yâ€"tlibhmlS fight. Shelby was just our of the tiny towns nn tlwir mutt“.

And now she is staying at the Ritz. in Now York. and :u‘qwaring nwry night at tho Now Amsterdam theater as one of the headliners of “The Fol- lies.” When Patricia Salmon was six yous old her parents decided it was time {or her to begin work. So she started in as a child actress in the tent-show where her father was a juggler and her mother did characâ€" ter parts. Week after week and year Otter year they travelled about through the. \Vest with the showâ€"- playing always in towns so small that their theatre was a tent which they carried with them. Thirteen That's Patricia Salmon. For thir- teen years ahe plodded along at what must have been a monotonous job. But her chance came, and she was ready for it. Uncle Sam has pretty keen eyes, and he knows a good man when he lees one. He has just appointed Carl Breeher Assistant United States Attorney. “Must" is a powerful word. Many of our great men were forced by ne- cessiiy to get out and scratch for a living, and. finally. fame and for- tune. We read such stories almost every day. “Can do." said Mr. Breoher. and entered himself in the New York University night school. All day he worked in the. United States District Attorney‘soff ice. Evenings he stud- ied and attended classes. It’s been ten years since he started his up- ward journey. But what about the boy who has no immediate need for money, and whose parents are able to provide for him? Joe Delfausse. eleven years old, and his brother. Roland, nine, are keeping a sporting goods store in a garage in their home town, Rockville Centre, Long Island. Their original capital was $50. borrowed from father, and they have cleared 8700 in four months. Many a man would be proud to have such a record of fi- nancial achievement. Keeping a store requires close attention (and no small knowledge of arithmetic. boyS) as well as much sacrificing of play- time. Look for the Brothers Delfausse in ”Who’s Who" in 1940. Carl Breeher. of Brooklyn, New York. burned the midnight oilâ€"or perhaps it was electricity. Anyway, after a hard day’s work running er- rands in an office, he didn't. go to the movies. Instead. he went to night school And received his High school diploma. But this didn't make. a lawyer of him. and he was detor- mined to ho a lawyer. Somehow or other he must manage to graduate from law school. ’ Helen Wills is seventeen. And be American Woman Tennis Cham- pion. Now she has gone back to wifornia. and to college. But she- 'flbe heard from again in the spring. “We put her in the pictorial sec- of “Success", for she’s on her up, and to achieve her present ion she has had to work, even h the work was play. ‘ ON THE WAY UP Thursday, September 27, 1923.

THE DURHAM CHRONICLE fanning and Burnett being thrown out at first on a hunt. The final score was 3-2. The game, taken altogether, was a pitcher’s duel, and Lucan getting the most of the breaks of the game.Dur- ham practically gave the game to the visitors on Burnett’s dropping a hot one to first from Goldsmith, and in the final inning failing to cover the home plate when Mountain at- tempted to catch a batter on a drop- ped third strike. We have no re- grets, however. On yesterday’s play both teams are evenly matched and it would not surprise us to,see the locals win out right in Lucan. The handicap the Durhams were work- ing under. too, had quite a lot to do with the score. Besides Schuts, the catcher, having his arm broken. Al- hert Kress, a. regular player. is now attending school at. Kincardine and his absence undoubtedly weakened the team. It was a. good game and one that it was no disgrace to lose.
