BROADWAY DRAMA TO BE “TALKIES” i <Three New York Producers Obtain Majority Stock of the Vocafilm Company and Plan to Begin Their Soon. BY WALTWTOr HICKMAN SWEEPING changes in road show conditions all over the country is seen in a dispatch by the United Press from New York. It is stated that A. H. Woods, the Shuberts and William A. Brady, three of the best known Broadway show producers, have acquired majority stock in the Vocafilm Company and will start operations within six weeks. This will permit these producers to film all plays from the original cast, including color, music and the like.

The dispatch quotes Woods as saying: “The original cast will take to the road if it is a tremendous success. Should it develop into a good, solid play with average drawings, reproductions will substitute for the original throughout the country. Woods said that several plays will begin within six weeks and will include “Jealousy,’’ with Fay Bainter and Glenn Hunter, a melodrama entitled “Past Life,” “A Man With Red Hair” and a play in which Florence Reed will Star. Under the new process, the play can be recorded in the theater in which it is running in two weeks time. Under the new plan, reproductions will be restricted to the Shubert theaters, it was announced. As Ad F. Miller, resident man-
