Miss Amold | ‘Wins Praise of Reviewer
Period Costumes, Unusual
Settings Help Current Offering.
BY JAMES THRASHER ~ Watching the opening perform‘ance of “The Old Maid,” current ‘Federal Players production at
Keith's, we recalled a matinee per-| #5
formance of “Camille” by Jane Cowl © a few seasons back, with the tem- » perature well above 100 on the | idtage. It can not be said that the
' “ Jocal Thespians quite achieved Miss
Cowl's triumph of talent over temperature, but they gave a capaole performance before a “breathless” audience, despite their winter costumes of the 1830s. The performance was notable for the work of Alice Arnold as Delia Lovell, for colorful and tasteful pe-
and emerged victorious ||
riod costumes, and for settings of
unusual charm and historical accuracy. Those who saw Helen . Mencken and Judith Anderson in ‘the Edith Wharton-Zoe Akin work at English’s last season will recall that the play is set in New York a century ago, and that the plot deals with two decades of bitter conflict between the Lovell cousins for possession of Charlotte's love child, born of a father whom both Charlotte and Delia had loved. | The problem is to trace the development of these two principal characters: Delia's from bitter disappointment to tolerance and final renunciation; Charlotte's from helpless love and unselfishness to a cruel. hard-set desire to possess completely her daughter, Tina, even at the cost of the girl's happiness.
" Performance Is Effective
Both parts demand careful and sympathetic handling, and Ricca Scott Titus as Charlotte, as did Miss Arnold, captured these qualities. They ‘underplayed their roles in * many places, but in the second act when Charlotte confesses that Tina is her child and: later when she . gives her consent to Delia's adoption of Tina,: their performances were dramatically effective. As the wise and kindly Dr. Lanskell, Jack Duval gave one of his best performances of the season. Though not in a leading part, he evidently gave it his best efforts. Betty Anne Brown as Tina likewise did splendid work. Minor roles, as in most of the ° ¥ederal Players’ productions we have seen, were carelessly played. " More detailed direction seems necesgary, with some attempt to remedy nasal and monotonous reading of lines which at times was annoy‘ing.
Report W. C. Fields
. on Way to Recovery
By United Press HOLLYWOOD, June 30—W. C. Fields, pale and weak from his recent battle with pneumonia, is well on the way to recovery, studio attaches reported today. The rotund comedian will be out of pictures for many months yet, the studio declared. Mr. Fields finjshed a picture just before he was stricken and then went to a nearby hot springs to rest. Still wise-cracking and happy. the one-time vaudeville juggler now ‘is allowed to sun himself a few hours a day. He is expected to leave the hospital within a few weeks and go to some southern
California - resort to regain his
. strength. The studio reported all arrangements for Fields’ next picture had been. completed, but that the comedian's recovery would not be hurried to fill the engagement.

Movie Men Meet Here For Golf But Find Time to Talk Shop
Double-Feature Policy Is Chief ‘Gripe’ of 175 Represéntatives From Eight States.
BY JOHN THOMPSON More than 175 motion picture business men from eight states, gathered at the Indianapolis Country Club to take part in the Indianapolis Variety Club-Motion Picture Business golf tournament and an-
nual dinner yesterday. The men representated practically every branch of the movie industry except the action production. Included were salesmen, distribution heads, chain and individual theater managers. Although the meeting was wholly informal, groups gathered here and theré on the pieturesque
club grounds to discuss; of course,
the movies.
The listening reporter gatheted
from the trend of the discussion that Shirley Temple is still tops in most cities; Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers had better not sprain a foe or heel if box office records are to continue to fall; that Clark Gable and Myrna Loy still start heart flutterings among movie fans, and cause theater receipts to leap.
Steak Dinner Given After the strenuous 18 hgles of golf, the movie men attended a féstive steak dinner sponsored by the Variety Club. Entertainment was provided by instrumentalists afid a floor show. Following the dinner, more than 115 prizes were distributed to golfers. Contests, besides the low gross golfing, included putting and clrivin-. A “booby” prize was won by rotund Claude Penrod, who broke all records by taking 266 strokes for the 18 holes, a mere 27 slashes on the last cup. In charge of the event was Johnny Howard, Paramoun:i Pictures Indianapolis branch manager. He was aided by other studios’ Indianapolis branch managers. Double Feature Policy Hit Chief “gripe” of the movie men as they stretched out on the grass, or “got comfortable” in ‘porch swings after the tournament, was the continuance of the double feature policy; that is, the showing of two movies for ‘the price of one. There ®idn’t seem to be a man in the group in favor of he current policy. It is a little puzzling that double features continue when both the public that sees them and the business men who show them are against such a policy. The brunt of the attack seemed to center on the producer, who, it was charged, makes the theater man buy so many films that he has to show two a week fo let the public view all his product. And of course there weren't any producers there to defend themselves.

‘The Texas Rangers’ Premiere
to Be Lone
Star State Event
Unveiling of Statue, Work of Studio Artist, to Be Part
Le
of Celebration at Dallas. .
BY RUTH M’TAMMANY Times Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, June 30.—“The Texas Rangers,” a story of early days when redskins roamed the South and badmen held up stages, is going
to have its premier in Dallas, Tex. to the Lone Star State Centennial.
It is to be the screen's contribution
Fred MacMurray, Jack Oakie and Lloyd Nolan, badmen who turn rangers, will be on hand at the Dallas opening. Jean Parker, feminine lead, also will help raise the curtain on this picture of historical truths.
A six-foot statue of the Texas Ranger will be unveiled with a celebration in Dallas. Capt. William E. McMurrey, of the Rangers, came to
.Hollywood as model for the tall
plaster figure in 10-gallon hat. Albert Silva, Spanish . sculptur, executed the life-sized statue. “My model had to be strong” said Silva, “and yet he had to be slender, Lave small hips and bowed legs. Those rangers live in the saddle and their legs curve into the horses’ sides. See, his hand is on the gun for a draw. 1 wanted a great deal
of movement in the figure. Here is
a small model I had, with the gun cut ofthe holster. The man points

Former Star Lacks Appeal
Chatterton Comeback Fails to Stir Enthusiasm.
There was a time not so long ago when a picture starring Ruth Chatterton and Otto Kruger would have come to our city on the wings of a spirited ballyhoo. But their latest opus, “The Lady of Secrets,” stole quietly into town for a brief engagement at’ the Ambassador, and out again with scarcely a ripple of excitement. The picture was supposed to mark Miss Chatterton’s “comeback,” but it ‘left us wondering at the eclipse
of Mr. Kruger in the cinematic firmament, and at the apparent unpopularity of many well-established stage actors on the screen.
' Mr. Kruger is a talented, expe- |
rienced and engaging performer, equally at home in the currently popular vein of polite comedy and in more serious drama. He does extremely well with the material given him, as does Miss Chatterton, though the spark which marked her early motion pictures still is absent.
Situati Viewed Impossible
The play, which gets of to a slow start, works climax before the too happy ending. From the pen of Katherine Brush, adapted by Zoe Atkins, it tells of a woman whose marriage is thwarted by a stuborn father. Her lover is killed in the war, and her daughter Joan (Marian Marsh) is brought up as her sister. The debutante Joan is in love with a young physician, (Robert Allan) but after a quarrel ‘meets an older and wealthier -suitor, played by Mr. Kruger. When Celia (Miss Chaterton) realizes her daughter is about to enter into a loveless marriage she cleverly prevents it without revealing her real identity to Joan, marries her daughter’s fiance, and returns her to the youthful and adoring doctor. In. spite of some ‘stilted lines and impossible situations, “The Lady of Secrets” emerges as fair entertainment. Lionel Atwill gives his usual performance as the father, Miss Marsh is much improved, but Miss Chatterton appears quite listless The picture, to us,2indicates that the
‘screen still could and should find a
place for Otto Kruger—By J. T.

The first notable example of “French” Spanish. music was Bizet’s “Carmen.” Chabrier and Lalo, among others, also made famous contributions | before Debussy and Ravel came on the scene. However, as de Falla told Mr. Schmitz, Spanish composers look to these last named as their masters, for “the colors and moods of Spain often are more vivid and impressive to travelers from the] outside than to those within.” Incidentally, Mr. Schmitz doesn’t mind having you know that he is something of a speed king, having held a number of amateur speed records in this country, including
