'Boy Meets Girl' Here Next Week Comedy Pokes Good, Clean Fun at Hollywood. Continuing Broadway’s favorite pastime of lampooning Hollywood and the movie industry, “Boy Meets Girl,” which opens at English's Monday for two nights and a Tuesday matinee, picks up the threads of the story where “Once in a Lifetime” and “Personal Appearance” left it. The comedy, winner of last week's New York Dramatists’ Guild award, is from the pen of the SpewacksBella, the short story writer, and Samuel, the journalist. Mr. Spewacle is remembered, among other things, for his amusing behind-the-scenes stories of the international oil scramble which are credited with having broken up the Genoa Peace Conference. In “Boy Meets Girl,” the authors tweak the noses of cinema capital moguls with good natured satire. The plot, based upon the Spewacks’ own studio experience, centers about two imaginative scenario writers who chase a story like a kitten chases a ball, and generally conduct themselves on a plane of inspired idiocy. One of the chief characters is the

Bowes' Winners Given Rousing Welcome by Indianapolis Fans \ Banjo Speed Artist Jolly to Tour With Unit; Saxophonist Joslin to Continue School Work. BY RALPH NORMAN Billy Jolly, bag. baggage, banjo and parents, arrived at the Lyric stage just in time for the second show yesterday afternoon to find that Major Bowes’ wheel of fortune had spun very fortunately for him. Billy was one of four local boys on the Sunday night amateur show dedicated to Indianapolis. An enthusiastic audience awaited his stage debut as a member of the Major’s Unit No. 7, but Billy had little time to think of audiences.

He was whisked from Municipal Airport, where he and his mother, Mrs. William Jolly, 902 N. Arling-ton-av, arrived at 3, to the theater. He was rushed down the aisle to the stage as the show was closing. Farents Share Pride Just as proud as Billy, who happens to be a modest, unassuming chap, were his father and mother. They shared the debut spotlight to watch their son play as he did Sunday night—so fast the pianist had difficulty keeping the pace. Billy explained during the ride to the theater that he feared his arm was so stiff he couldn't play, but this was forgotten in the excitement of rounds of applause which welcomed him back to Indianapolis. Preceding Billy home from the amateur hour performance was Alvin Joslin, son of Mr. and Mrs. George C. Joslin, 525 N. Coloradoav, who arrived by plane early yesterday to Join the Lyric troupe for the first afternoon stage show. Alvin, as those who heard the Sunday program know, plays the saxophone, and plays it well. Mrs. Joslin did not see her son’s debut at the Lyric, although Mr. 1 Joslin attended to see him reap the benefits of years of training given by his father. Back to 3chool for Alvin Billy and Alvin have much in common. Both are high school juniors—Billy attends ‘or did attend) Shortridge, and Alvin studies at Tech. Each has studied music for years, and each enjoys playing the Instrument of his choice. Billy expects to make banjo playing his profession. md is to continue with the unit to Detroit and other cities. Alvin, his mother said, is to return to school Monday after his week at the Lyric and make up the two weeks’ work he will have missed. Much interested in Billy's and Alvin's performances were other rHSLISMiffPI ’ll. “JH“I DRAMATISTS' GUILD PRIZE FIAT I FUNNIEST—FASTEST—FINEST I L vjsjfy ■ mb :■ v Ea|iiilMlßiß I BT BELLA AND SAM BPKWACR , | A GEORGE ABBOTT PRODUCTION [ JWS&. lit R AI.IL REAPS TRtTQBS.

1. Judging from these strenuous rehearsal efforts by Mrs. Conrad Ruckelshaus and John Wildhack, there’s to be nothing phone-y about their specialty dance in “Number Please,” the Junior League revue at English’s Friday and Saturday nights. 2. With costumes and routine all set for their “Natchez” number, Mrs. George Fotheringham (left) and Mrs. Henderson Wheeler find time to pose for a picture. 3. The man with the megaphone is Arthur Seelig, director of the show’s skits, and his companion is Wesley Totten, dance director. Together, these two gentlemen have presented a show every month since last August—mostly Junior League productions.

A second company was organized in Chicago soon after the New York opening, and played there for four months before starting on tour.

George Abbott, co-author and director of “Three Men on a Horse,” is the producer.

members of the unit, who assembled in the wings to applaud the newcomers’ first stage adventures. As one explained, they knew the sensation of a first appearance, and enjoyed seeing others receive the thrill. There was excitement enough yesterday for the unit’s members to disturb the routine of even a professional show. Blues Singer, Ruth Reed was robbed, just before the first show, of a purse containing $35 and her wrist watch by two men who held and robbed her in an alley near the theater door. Police later located the purse, from which the money had been removed, and the watch in a public room of a downtown office building.

Myrna Loy, Again in 'Forgiving' Role, Wonders If Shell Profit Hero Warner Baxter Voices Opinion That She’d Do Part as Patient Wife in Real Life. BY RUTH McTAMMANY Time* Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, May 12—On one of the stages at the Fox Studio is an ultra modern room of a New York apartment.. The picture in production is “To Mary—With Love." It is a well appointed room and & paneled, chromium trimmed bar Is open, ready for service. Warner Baxter and lan Hunter were having high-balls, while Loy looked on enjoying a moment of happiness with her husband, Baxter, and their devoted friend, Hunter. “If its a boy,” said Baxter, to the family friend, “you will buy the drinks.” “It will be a boy, my dear,” Myrna Loy announced, “because you always get what you want.” •

“But if there are twins,” said Baxter, crossing to the door, “the drinks are on you, little woman.” It was the end of the scene—another which again found Myrna Loy the patient, understanding wife who stands by ready to forgive all. “I wonder, Myrna,” said Baxter, as they walked off the set, “what kind of a wife you’d really make.” “I often wonder, myself,” Miss Loy laughed, “unless I take a lesson from all these roles I play and profit by it.” n m m Ralph Bellamy had just finished playing a prison scene with Marguerite Churchill in the production “San Francisco Nights” when he discovered us. He rose suddenly from his cot, hitting his head on the edge of a large studio light. He staggered a moment, then came over holding his head and said: “This is not part of the story—my head is bleeding and so I’ll say hello and good-bye,” M M M W. S. Van Dyke, director of “San Francisco,” wrote a book a few years back called “Horning Into Africa." It was his story of the production “Trader Horn,” in which he told of the intricasies of the jungle and how he “never” got lost on the treacherous trails. Recently a sumptuous affair was being given for film folk at a downtown Los Angeles hotel. Mr. Van Dyke entered via the “carriage” door and strolled through the corridors with a bewildered look upon his face. The location appeared unfamiliar to him, he did not recognize the native tribes in their fastive costumes. He tried several corridors but could not discover where the “scene was to be shot.” We came to his rescue and he joined the other “lions” of the evening. Henry B. Walthall, one time favorite of silent pictures, is playing his most important role since his return to sound films. He is engineer and designer of the flying ship “China Clipper” in the production of that title. There is frailty in his bearing and tremor in his voice as he goes through a rehearsal of a long scene with Pat O'Brien, star of the picture. The Walthall of today is still the intense, dramatic player that he was. His is a masterful interpretation of lines; he is an exponent of the old school of acting which always stood for sincere character creation. As he sits with his wife, of the story, over a cup of coffee, steaming hot, his mind is distracted; his hand trembles perceptibly as he lifts the cup. At a knock on the outside door, he rises, walks over to it with faltering steps. Pat O'Brien is standing outside. “May I come in, Dad?” he asks. The old man he calls Dad motions him to a seat. “I’m sorry Dad, that I've gone

on without you. But it won’t work, I need you. How soon can you complete the ship?” “You have been ruthless,” says Walthall. There is a warning note in his voice. “I know, but I’ve got to have the ship . . . when, Dad, when?” “A matter of days. When this ship takes off, I want you to be reasonably sure you get where its going.” It’s only one scene, but the fine acting of venerable Henry B. Walthajl is ccr 'incing.

Screen Writer Compares Films to Symphony Instead of Drama Dudley Nichols, Adapter of “The Informer,” Thinks Wagner Would Have Felt at Home in Movies. Timet Special HOLLYWOOD, May 12.—Dudley Nichols, ace screen writer, who recently completed the script for “Mary of Scotland,” believes that the art of the cinema is more nearly comparable to a symphony than to the legitimate drama.

“It can be a simple melody, or it can have all the complexities of a Bach fugue,” says Mr. Nichols He believes, however, that cinematic expression inclines toward the operas of Wagner. He would have felt right at home in motion pictures, is the film writer’s opinion. * Mr* Nichols’ adaptation of “The Informer,” which won the 1935 award for the best screen writing, proved that he has definite and original ideas of film drama. This picture he called a “simple melody,” but claims that “Mary of Scotland” has all the complexities of Elizabeth’s reign. It isn’t going to be the Mary of Maxwell Anderson’s play, but a Mary of Mr. Nichols’ own blending with history. He has stayed with the facts as much as possible, even to the execution. He thinks the play’s conclusion, with the two queens in r tower, is praiseworthy for the stage, but not for cinema. The playwright’s verse, much as he admires it, is not for the screen, at least at present. The point that Mary was supposed never to have met Elizabeth, even in a tower, does not disturb him as it did some critics. That's dramatic license. Mr. Nichols has patience, but little else, for the hurry-up school of scenario writing. He went through all that six years ago when he

Remembers Ziegfeld as Easy Going

Local Musician Blames His ‘ldealism’ for Not Taking Job With ‘Flo.’ BIT JAMES THRASHER When Karl Reckxeh came to Chicago from Liepzig in 1900, “The Great Ziegfeld" was Florence Ziegfeld Sr., more famous as the cofounder and director of the Chicago Musical College than as the father of America’s super-showman. Mr. Reckieh has not seen the cinematic biography of the “Follies” creator, now showing for a second week at Loew s, but he haa many personal recollections of the Ziegfelds, father and son. During a lsw leisure moments before last night’s Maennerchor rehearsal, Mr. Reckzeh, veteran, conductor of the chorus, called to mind the time when “Flo,” then manager of his father's music school, was cured of the gambling habit by the loss of $75,000 in a single night. Mr. Zeigfeld Sr., paid the bill, and Flo soon afterward left for New York to begin his brilliant career as Anna Held’s manager. Turned Down S3OO Offer In 1903, Ziegfeld returned to Chicago with Miss Held, heard Mr. Reckxeh conduct a cast from the musical college and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in a performance of Beethoven’s opera, "Fidelio.’* and promptly offered him a position as orchestra director on Miss Held’s forthcoming American tour. The salary was S3OO a week, but Mr. Reckzeh turned it down. “I was more idealistic in those days.” was his comment. Asked about Anna Held. Mr. Reckzeh described her as “charming, not beautiful.” “Her shows really were nothing.” he continued. “There was no plot: she only sang, and always in French, while about a dozen girls formed a background. But the cheapest seats were $2.50. and the house was always crowded.” Florenz Ziegfeld Jr., said Mr. Reckzeh, was a very reticent man, and extremely difficult to know. His father, on the other hand, was both affable and accessible. Both father and son spent money freely, and the father was unusually lucky as well. He always financed his yearly trip to Europe by winning on the speed of the boat, and so forth. And at poker, Dr. Reckzeh remarked, he was unbeatable. The senior Ziegfeld's career, from the founding of the Chicago Musical College during Civil War days, was one of unimpeachable honesty and great generosity. One of the first music school directors to guarantee salaries, he continued the policy through good years and bad, almost to his undoing. As for Flo, Mr. Reckzeh believes that although the “cultural value” of the “Pomes” was negligible, the showman’s colorful career is well deserving of the tribute paid him in “The Great Ziegfeld.” Leslie Howard Sets Sail for Scotland Timet Special HOLLYWOOD. May 12. — Leslie Howard co-starred with Norma Shearer in “Romeo and Juliet” was on board the liner Berengaria today, bound for England. He plans to produce the picture, “Bonnie Prince Charlie,” in Scotland this summer. Mother Career Comes First Florence Eldridge, who has the dramatic role of Queen Elizabeth in “Mary of Scotland,” said that her screen career is only second in importance to her real career as Mrs. Fredric March and mother of two handsome children.
