Movie stars are much In de mand for dedications in California. Whenever some company wants a plane dedicated or something of a similar nature the movie crowd is always called upon to do it. For example, Mr. Horacek was present when Maty Plckford christened the first T. A . T. airplane In Oren vllle, by breaking a bottle of cham pagne on the propollor. Hollywood first nights are very' Interesting. Usually when a pic ture is being shown for the first time at a Hollywood or Los An geles theater, the entire caat of tbe picture Is on hand. At what are termed "premiers" or opening nights of big pictures, the whole movie colony is usually present. On these occasions everyone comes in formal dress and tickets are ex pensive. Private home parties are a big feature In tbe Uvea of tbe mem bers of the movie colony. Most of the stars hive palatial homes In Beverly Hills, tbe roost beautiful of which are Douglas Fairbanks', Harold Lloyd's and Tom Mix's.

Tbe Awgwan waa under the) sponsorship of Sigma Delta, Chi, national profeslonal Journalist in 'raternity. Gene S.

"Sigma Delta, Chi sponsorship baa been very Inactive," be ta.ted. "The only thing we have dona thla year in the lorm of aid for the magazine has been to assist In its circulation.
