“MAYFAIR PLAYBOY” BOUND OVER
GIVING WORTHLESS CHEQUES ADMITTED LONDON, September 2. Dick Beaumont was bound over for a year. He pleaded guilty to staying at Park Lane Hotel with three friends and giving worthless cheques. He hoped shortly to go to a plantation overseas to escape London temptations. All the amounts would be repaid.
A cable of August 26 stated that Dick Beaumont, one of the six self-called “Mayfair playboys” who were planning a world cruise, called in at Southampton to buy provisions for the yawl and was detained by the police. Later he was brought to London and was charged at the Bow Street Police Court with passing a worthless cheque in a West End hotel.
