Our limousine is entering the swanky premises of a prominent social figure. The chauffeur of the estate, Russell Casson, parks our car as we ring the door bell. The door opens and the butler, James Shepherd, receives and announces us as Vim Backman takes our wraps. Mlle. Mild' red Hallen Griffith, wife of manfaboutftown Mickey Griffith, who, at this moment, is about town, comes to welcome us. She introduces us to such outstanding and eniment guests as Mr. Schatf tauer, who is the prospering editor of ThrillfU magazine5 Miss Mary Du Bois, who is' from Alf toona, Iowa, where she teaches school5 Archie Lankford, president of one of the biggest shoef string companies in the country.

Across the table is Mr. Johnny Ingalls, new sensation of the romantic film, Love, At Last I've Found You . We are entertained by two lovely dancers, Miss Dorma Duncan and Miss Peggy Burns, who are currently featured at the Sunshine. At 11:30 we leave the house to see how they are celebrating New Years in the city. A news' boy, Ivan Davis, bothers us for a sale. The news' paper contains an article of the elopement of the wealthy widow, Shirley Carley, with the famous sportsman, Robert Holden. We also see in the paper that the handsome bachelor, Robert Ek' strand, is still trying to get up enough nerve to pop the question to that glamourous blonde bomb' shell, Phyllis Bunker. The clock strikes 12:00. In an open door We see Bill Eddleman celebrating the New Year with a bottle--of milk. An hour later, coming down the street, we see Jack Kirstein with his broom, cleaning the streets before daybreak. Hav ing given the chauffeur permission to use the we hail a ride with a milkman, Roger Smith A1 so home--. X
