By BOBBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD When the ghost walks in Hollywood, he takea a hike literally. Pay-day means a a troll from stage to stage, from star dressing room w executive office, for. the studio cashier. The extras, bit players, carpenters, electrician! and property men file by the cashier's barred window to ool lect their week'a earnings, but the stars in the majority ol cases get those fancy checks delivered. They do, that is. If they see them at all. Most stars have agents who pop up. bright and early eaoh pay-day, to col lects their checks for them. The agent, with hi 10 percent In mind, wastes no time In getting to the bank. He always bears with him a letter from the star, or a power of attorney. authorising such collection. H he hasn't the studio cashier In most In stances will not release the check. Astaire Collects. Ginger Rogers 1 one star who never sees her pay-eheok.

Now, she told me, she can buy a hun dred pairs at once and never miss the cost and Its not so exciting." Here Comes Hepburn! Peale always knows when Kathar ine Hepburn la coming to collect. Tou can hear her laughing and Joking a block away but she's mighty nice," he adds. At Metro the agents get most of the checks, but Mary Carlisle, Mau reen O'Sulllvan, Cecelia Parker and Henry Wadsworth are among the few who call in person.- Joan Cradford's chauffeur picks up hers and Fran ohot Tone's.
