As the title Implies, the story con
cerns an automobile race, with rival
manufacturers sending drivers out to
establish a new record for a dash

struggling for more than money, for
the man needs the $10,000 prize to
keep out of jail, and the girl needs
that sum to protect her father from

class at Princeton. Wishing to com
plete the circuit and form a real ad
miration society, she declares that
Princeton is her favorite college.. This
is all very nice so far as it goes, but
it will require considerable Mexican
diplomacy to successfully meet the sit
uation when the diminutive star is
voted the popular favorite by another
college.
As to the 43 unkissed members of
the Princeton graduating class. Miss
Clark very charitably refrained from
making any comment other than that
it was interesting if true. She did not
suggest that the unkissed state of
these learned and profound young
gentlemen might have been an invol
untary one, despite the impression
which they strove to give In their sta
tistical remarks on osculation, in which
they classed it as "unhygienic" "un
fair to girls" or "morally wrong."
Miss Clark interupted her work on
"Molly Make-Believe" long enough to
refuse flatly to' accept the suggestion
of an "inspired" press agent that in
recognition of the compliment bestowed
upon her by the sons of Old Nassau,
she agree to alleviate the suffering
of any of the starving 43 who might
make the journey from Princeton to
the Famous Players' studio, where
Paramount pictures are made.
One is forced to make many sacri
fices to art in the ordinary course of
events, according to the little actress,
but that was too much.
Screen Gossip.
Lionel Barrymore, who will be seen

new scenario by Willard Mack, in.
which Fannie Ward and Jack Dean
will play the leads. The title of the
picture has not yet been settled upon.
"The Love Mask," with Wallace Reid
and Cleo Kidgley, has been connected.
A new face will appear in Fox films
when the latest . of William Farnum
pictures reaches the screen from the
William Fox . organization. Wheeler
Oakman, well known in pictures and
for several years working on the Pa
cific Coast, has been engaged and al
ready is at work at Santa Cruz and
Catalina Island, Cal., in a big story of
the sea. This is the first sea Tstory
