LOS ANQkLkS, Cal.—"High life,” ag It Is lived by some members of !. the flint colony here and in other f cities along the coast, probably will t be bared at the murder trial of Ros eoe (Patty) Arbuckle, the screen j comedian, under arrest in San Fran [ cisco. Arbuckle is held in connection With the death of Miss Virginia Rappe, movie actreHS. who died fol lowing a riotous party In Arbuckle's rooms at a San'Francisco hotel. Possibility that other members of i the film colonies may be drawn into the Arbuckle scandal as witnesses is egpected to bring about several hasty departures from the coast. Any companies planning to 'shoot pictures” on distant locations these days have no difficulty in rounding Up volunteers. Many New Rich Hollywood, the film colony near Los Angeles is typical of the rest. It abounds with those who have sprung Into fame and wealth almost overnight by means of the silver sheet. , , Also it abounds with girls whose visions of fame have burned out, who are without resources, and who i become easy prey to men of much ‘ means and low morals. «, t It is largely because of this type i of screen actor end the sycophants 1— »ygrj£ii^Piem_ym^HoU^von^yTd_ other film colonies along the coast have hecome widely known as places where they "hit only the high spote.” Movies I loom City The movies “made" Los Angeles. When the Aim Influx began here a decade ago, Loa Angeles had a popu lation of only a little more than 300,000. Today it has jumped to nearly 800.000 and la the tenth larg est city in the country and far above the average in wealth. Yet the golden handed movie men always have found opposition among the Los Angeles old residenters. When the mushroom movie mil lionaires applied for cards at the old I.os Angeles clubs, they were turned down. When the wealthy stars tried to pry their way into Pasadena, the exclusive section in which are lo cated the homes of many rich fami lies of secure social standing, they found progress Impossible. So the movie men built their own clubs and formed their own circle of society. They built their homes in smother suburb, Hollywood, which Is today almost an exclusive colony of movie people, and which is as well, if not better, known the world over than I.os Angeles through the work of the film companies. Revels Figure in Suits Certain resorts and roadhouses and hotels within automobile dis tance of Hollywood became noted— or notorious. __ DOINGS OF THE DUFFS OF COURSE I'D LIKE.
