Is to Be Seen in Part of Napoleon in
Screen ‘Narrative Concerning Historic Louisiana Purchase.
Marion Davies’ latest cinematic
’
vehicle, “Hearts Divided,” in which
the blond star is supported by Dick Powell, Charlie Ruggles, Arthur ‘Treacher and Edward Everett Horton, is to be the attraction at the Oircle starting Friday, it was announced today. Also in the large cast is Claude Rains, eminent actor who plays the part of Napoleon in this story surrounding the Louisiana Purchase,
~ + Miss Davies’ stage and screen career has been one of the longest on ‘record, mainly because she started young. She was born on a New Year's Day in Brooklyn, N. Y., the ‘daughter of Judge Bernard J. Douras, of the New York Supreme Court. She changed her name to Davies because one of her sisters, Riene, had decided to use that
name. First Job at 12
‘Marion had reached the ripe age of 12 when she got her first job, with Ziegfeld’s Follies, by wearing another sister's long skirt and lying about her age. She attended public school in New York where she captained a basketball team, went to the Convent of Sacred Heart in - New Hampshire, then enrolled for
two years in the Empire School of Acting. First jobs included modeling for Howard Chandler Christyiand Harrison Fisher, She collects books but fers fine bindings to first edions. She is an expert horticulturist, marketing many rare bulbs, is an inveterate buyer of antiques, on which she is said to have an intuitive judgment of values. Miss Davies ranks with the most generous of Hollywood's. philanthropists. Besides giving to charities, she erected and maintains one of the largest clinics for children on the West Coast. She intends to © take up a writing career when she leaves the stage and screen.
Likes Her Comfort
Marion likes comfort while making a picture. She employs a large orchestra to play on the set where her film is being shot. She also has a special lunch served at mid-after-noon on the set, at which every one working on the picture is her guest. She had a special traveling dressing room built for her a season or s0 ago, but according to friends, she rarely uses it. It has a telephone attachment, heating and air-condi-tioning equipment, but Miss Davies likes to be out with her actorfriends, and the dressing room is usually occupied by her servants. The story of “Hearts Divided” concerns Jerome Bonaparte, brother of the famous general, who comes "to Baltimore incognito and falls in love with an American belle. Frank Borzage directed the picture, which contains several new . songs sung by Mr. Powell and Miss Davies.

New Pictures Set Accurate
‘Son Comes Home’ Shows Old Waterfront.
BY RUTH M'TAMMANY Times Hollywood Correspondent
HOLLYWOOD, June 22.—Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco becomes the location for a dramatic
sequence of Paramount's production “A Son Comes Home.” That quaint portion of the city’s waterfront is still a lure for the voyageur who enjoys a vista of Gloucester, Mass., and Corrento, Italy, in one. We visited this famous Golden Gate wharf, where the display of lobsters and crabs intrigued us into one of the little cafes. We picked on lobster, saw it go into the boiling water in an old iron pot and enjoyed the feast. Beside the wharf, in the lagoons, were countless small fishing craft, Italian in design and color of sail. We watched laden boats returning’ with ey sea-food and the types of “salty,” bearded fishermen who now carry on the struggle for existencee in Pacific waters. So we went on the “A Son Comes Home” set with critical eye, but found nothing lacking—not even the aroma. The background was an exact replica of San Francisco's tall buildings and ship-masts. The little cafes, disorderly and dingy, were strung along the ‘pier. This background was static, but there was confusion and riot in the scene in front of it.
German Directs Film
The temperamental German director E. Dupont of. “Variety” fame was stirring his players into emotional outbursts. Fishermen, policemen and reporters were milling around a small yellow car at the curb. Cameras of the press were flashing on Mary Boland and Donald Woods who were in the car. A fisherman yelled: ’ "Al a very happy homecoming, t2 “My son ‘isn’t guilty and he'll prove it,” Mary Boland ° defiantly to the’ sne wharf-men. The scene looked! y good, but Dupont wanted more action. “No, no,” he called out, “the boy ran away years ago, you think he is no good, he is a thief—a thief. Do it!” The scene is shot again . .. it is shot five times until the excited director, mopping his forehead—sinks into a chair and mumbles “Gut.”
Mary Seeks Rest
Mary Boland, in unmodish black hat and iron-gray wig went into the cafe to rest. “I wanted a dramatic role and I got it. This is really an important picture for me. Mr. Dupont
bots knows nothing of my past perform-
ances. He is directing me as though I had always played serious roles and that in itself is a treat. In the story, my son, Donald Woods, has been away from home for years. I don’t know where. Suddenly he comes to light in a roadside theft. He is on his way home and is involved in & crime which he did not ‘commit. I pay the bail and the scene you just saw is one in which I am bringing him home before the trial. “Working under the direction of Mr. ‘Dupont is like returning to a theater rehearsal. He gets every bit of drama out of a scene but he is often amusing. The other day, he had sent the prop boy for several items and each time the boy returned he was minus something. Finally Dupont got angry—paced 1 | the floor and yelled: “ ‘Listen, you stupid boy, the next
h| time I send you/for something, I—
I'll go myself.’ “He is so accurate about backgrounds and atmosphere, however, that he has gone too far on this set. For days he had baskets.of dead fish around. I wonder what he considers the length of time for a post mortem on a poor fish is? If he thought the reeking air would enliven our scenes he was mistaken, because we all struck. The fish have gone but the scent remains!”

MANAGER FOR FEDERAL PLAYERS, THEATER VETERAN, TELLS EXPERIENCES |
BY JOHN W. THOMPSON
He's seen the best and the worst ‘of them come and go for more than 20 years. Youll find him scurrying around the stage at Keith's these days, one of the busiest men on the “lot.” His name is Joseph J. Shea (Joe to most every one) and he's stage manager for the Federal Players, a complicated job. Joe specializes in digging up odd knickknacks to make the Federal shows more real--istic, and whether it's a 1908 umbrella or a shoe ‘horn used in the gay '90s Joe usually finds one somewhere around town. . Joe's a prim little fellow, wears a derby when he dresses up. He's a walking encyclopedia . of ‘stage, screen and dance. history and likes to talk about the business he’s been in since 1909. We climbed the winding stairs back of the Keith's stage the other day and chatted with Joe about things he’s seen and done. In 1908 Joe first got the show bug and joined a carnival, “Flying Lady,” a first rate pop-corn and peanut attraction then on the road. It was great experience for a youngster, and Joe learned how % sleep on a stack of canvas, to] grab his grub when and how he could. Worked at Annex
In 1909 Joe was back in Indianapolis, working at the Annex, one of the town’s first movie theaters, where two-reelers were:in vogue. He and George Swain “invented” talking pictures at'the Annex long before “talkies” were thought of. The theater operators would run the picture attractions through for George and Joe several times before the theater opened for the day. The two boys would sit out front and get an idea of what the story was about. Then they would hide behind the transparent screen and talk for the various: characters in the screen story. The boys got a kick out of it and it wasn’t long before Annex business showed that the audiences enjoyed it too. Joe had a hankering for dancing and studied it wherever he got the chance. In 1919 he joined the ballet of the Metropolitan Opera Com-= pany in New York. Later he went into the costume department and in 1929 he “graduated” after becoming assistant stage manager,
Tells of Opera Days :
Joe can tell stories about the “great” opera days for hours on end. He was there when Lawrence Tibbett came to work as an unknown singer. Tibbett sang minor roles at first, made his big hit in “Falstaff.” Although there was no doubt that Tibbett had a great voice, Joe said that his first big “curtain call” evening was a sort of mistake. “It was the night of the first singing of ‘Falstaff’ and untrue rumors had gone around that be-
ra. authorities were holding hime back,” Joe related. “Curtain calls were being taken. On the stage were Scotti, the great bass, and several other ‘supporting singers. The stage manager sent Tibbett back to get another ovation. Tibbett started back on the stage, then, with about half of him showing to the audience, he decided to wait until the next curtain call instead of interrupting the current one. So he quickly stepped back.! Well, the thing looked to the audience as if some one had jerked Tibbett back off the stage and the audience, remembering the rumor, burst into patriotic applause.”
Joe Was Dancer
Joe was dancing at the “Met” when Enrico Caruso was at his peak. “Caruso was always cutting up,” Joe said. “He was a real life ‘Pagliacci’ He used to sit and draw caricatures of the singers and whenever he had his back to the audience during an aria, he ‘would make faces at the other singers on the stage.” Joe was there the night during the 1922-23 season when Caruso wrenched his back, the injury which eventually led to his death. It was during a performance of “Pagliacci” and Caruso was supposed to turn quickly, at one point in the scene, and grab his wife as she jumped over a low wall. So forcefully did Caruso turn himself that he wrenched the muscles of his back. Just after that he sang the tearful aria in which he fell to the floor in sobs. ’ Knowing ° that : the great tenor was a clown, the stage crew started

to “strike” the set, leaving the suffering Caruso sobbing on the floor. It was 15 minutes before .they finally discovered that. his sobs were real and -that he couldn't get up, Joe said. Even after this injury, and after pleurisy had set in, the great singer came back, encased in tape and leather braces, to sing several other operas. Each Christmas for years, Joe said, the entire ballet cast and opera company was asked to stop at the business office. There they were each handed a $5 gold piece. When they asked who the donor was, there was no answer.. It was just a gift, and most every one thought it came from the management. It wasn’t until after Caruso’s death that they discovered it was he who had distributed the gold. Full of Stories Joe is full of such stories. If you ask "him he will tell you about the ignorant little burro they used in “Pagliacci.” It wouldn't back up, and if the animal was gotten on to the stage in a certain position, there was no way to get him off unless the stage hands walked on and carried him off. Or he will tell you about the very intelligent mule used in “Carmen.” ®*This animal, according to Joe, understood English. If you told him to stand in the corner he'd stand there. And he got so smart that after a few months they didn’t even have to take him back to the stables after the show. They just took him to the door and said: “You're through for the day. Go on home” and the animal trotted back to his stall. After leaving the opera company, Joe trouped with Morris Gest’s companies for some time, then went with the Shuberts. Mementoes From Metropolitan He has a trunk full of mementos he got while working at the Metropolitan. There is the garter Geraldine Farar wore while singing “Zaza” and an amulet that Caruso wore in several of his operas. One of Joe's most prized posessions is an autographed story of Meyerbeer’s “L’Africana,” fairly covered with autographs of the famous: Mario, Paolo Ananian, Adamo Didur, “Beniamino Gigli, Gieueppe Danise, Leon Rothier, Marion Telva, the conductor, Arthur Bodansky, August Berger, the ballet masters, and Vincenzo Reschiglian. + Joe keeps up with the latest dance news, likes to be on the stage, and plays bit parts in the Federal productions sometimes. You can see him this week, tripping about the stage as a Chinaman “extra” in one or two. scenes.

Final Concert |
Symphony Gets Ovation; » Schaefer Pleased.
- BY JAMES THRASHER
Ferdinand Schaefer, departing today for a European vacation, may take with him the memory of a cheering audience of 10,090 friends of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra who heard the organization’s second and last free concert of the season in Garfield Park last night, The players, disbanded until next fall, may pursue their summer activities with the knowledge that their efforts in this experimental venture have met with a reception beyond any one’s expectations. The estimate of the audiences number, made by the park superintendent, may be considered accurate. Early. comers soon claimed the 2000 seats, and the crowd filled the entire inclosure and stretched: away into the darkness.
Audience Is Appreciative Throughout the entire park ‘the
roads were lined with parked auto-]
mobiles in which many remained to knjoy- perfect “reception” at a distance. Once again the listeners proved themselves - a model of concert etiquette. They were attentive, courteous and appreciative—and they never applauded at the wrong time. On two occasions during the evening Mr. Schaefer expressed his gratitude for their presence and approval. The program was chosen judiciously as to length and substance. Opening with ' the overture .to Thomas’ opera, “Mignon,” the concert proceeded with Liszt's “Les Preludes,” the prelude to Act IIT of “Lohengrin” by Wagner, Strauss’ “Beautiful Blue Danube” and the orchestra suite from Bizet's “Car-
Obviously inspired by the largest audience in their career, both conductor and players gave a splendid performance, rising to a brilliant conclusion in the “Carnien.” e playing of some of the young musicians making their orchestral debut was particularly commendable. There seems little doubt that these two concerts represent 6 the most valuable contribution, educational and cultural, that the orchestra has made. The problem of continuing them lies with the orchestra board and the city government, but their desirability is manifest.

A unique program of historical and musical interest is in for those who tune in on Victor Bay’s orchestra at 2:30 tomorrow o WFBM. ‘The major part of the half hour is to be taken up by per-
formance of an Victor Saar.
The collection includes an overture by Telemann, a minuet by Marpurg, a jig by Johann Mattheson, a fantasy by Georg Muffatt, and a fugue by Johann Pachelbel. All these men, to most people unknown or buried beneath a paragraph in a music history text, weredistinguished musicians of seventeenth and eighteenth century Germany, contemporaries of Bach and Handel. Pachelbel, one of the most esteemed writers of his time, exerted a powerful influence upon the youthful development of Bach, became an: intimate freind of the great composer's family and taught Bach’s eldest son. It was Pachelbel who developed the fugue and organ choral,’ giv~ ing symmetry and clarity to. these forms which proved the basis of Bach's immortal] fame. Teleman was Bach's senior by four years, and considered his musical equal during their lifetime. |

he was 25. - Meanwhile, he taught, composed, wrote theoretical works and played the organ. As cantor and canon of the Hamburg Cathedral, he revolutionized ‘the church service by introducing women singers and adding duets, choruses and airs into the liturgy. Mr. Bay will conclude the program with Grieg’s suite, “From Holberg’s Time,” written for string orchestra. .
