Ibsen Play Booked at English’s
"Doll's House' Scheduled
For Presentation In November.
Ibsen’s “A Doll's House” today joins the growing list of attractions booked for English’s theatrical season. Vincent Burke, manager, has announced the booking for three performances: Tuesday evening, Nov. 2, and the following afternoon and evening. In place of Mme. Nazimova, who has brought us the Scandinavian master’s “Ghosts” and “Hedda Gabler” in the past two years, Producer Jed Harris has secured Ruth Gordon to play Ncra, the heroine who ended the reign of meek, submissive women on the stage. Three noted players, Dennis King, Paul Lukas and Sam Jaffe, will be seen in the supporting cast. Although he has appeared in some 30 American films, Mr. Lukas will
be making his stage debut in this country in “A Doll's House.”
- ~ Has European Stage Experience
He has had a wide European stage experience, however. He was for nine years a member of the Comedy Theater Co. in Budapest, where he made his debut in 1916 in the title role of Molnar’s “Liliom.” Mr. Lukas has been making pictures in England since he finished “Espionage” in Hollywood, and was due to arrive in New York yesterday to begin rehearsals with the Harris' company. Movie audiences probably remember him best for his work in “Little Women,” “The Three Musketeers” and “Dodsworth.” x Mr. Jaffe, though he is better known to stage than screen audiences, has received considerable praise during the past season for his portrayal of the High Lama in in the picture, “Lost Horizon.” He appeared in New York last year in Max Reinhardt’s “The Eternal Road.” It is sometimes - forgotten that Dennis King is an actor as well as a light opera star. But he had established himself as a dramatic artist before he discovered he had a singing voice while playing Mercutio with Jane Cowl in “Romeo and Juliet.”
FRENCH ACTRESS SHIFTS FILM SUIT
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 1 (U. P.)— Olympe Bradna, 17-year-old French film star, today was eliminated as a litigant in a contract suit over her services, but the action was pressed against her parents, Joseph and Jeanne Bradna.

BLIND PIANIST DUE HERE
The brilliant young British pianist, Alec Templeton, will open the Town Hall series on Saturday morning, Oct. 16, at the Columbia Club. Mr. Templeton, blind since birth, is equally at home in ‘popular tunes of the day and music of more serious intent. In addition, he has astounded audiences and radio listeners both here and abroad with his unusual gift for improvisation. He also offers “musical caricatures” at the piano. The young pianist came to this country with Jack Hylton’s dance orchestra, and was heard regularly through the summer as soloist on
the “Universal Rhythm” broadcast _
series. He also appeared with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra last season, playing the Grieg A Minor Concerto and responding with an encore in the form of an improvisation on themes suggested by the audience. Among other Town Hall attractions for the coming season are
Mai Mai Sze, daughter of China's.
Ambassador to the United States; J. B. Priestly, the English novelist; Dale Carnegie, who tells you “how to win friends and influence people’; Mary Agnes Hamilton, a British Broadcasting Co. governor; Robert H. Berkov, United Press bureau manager in Shanghai, and other notables. Mrs. E. H. Bingham again is presenting the series.

‘Victoria’ Film's Sets Priceless
Times Special HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 1. — The most priceless properties in the history of the motion picture industry were used in the production of “Victoria the Great.” Pressed for a rough estimate of their total “quick sale value,” Herbert Wilcox, producer, placed the hypothetical figure at “somewhere in the neighborhood of three and a half billion dollars,” but qualified the statement with the reminder that obviously money couldn’t buy such properties. A list of the items which were “loaned” by the British Govern-
ment for the picture dispels any tinge of the fantastic from the producer’s estimate. The compilation includes: Windsor Castle, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, St. Paul’s Cathedral, St. James’ Palace, Balmoral Castle, Kensington Palace, and what is probably one of the world’s largest museum pieces—the engine and six coaches which formed the honeymoon train for Victoria and Prince Albert nearly 100 years ago.

Statue Fall
Halts V Work
Accident in Studio Upsets Filming Schedule.
Times Special HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 1.—Often a motion picture company has been forced to “shoot around” players for illness or injury, but now a company has suspended production because of injury to a statue. Today that company is shooting around the statue.
During a comedy scene between Frank McHugh and Tom Kennedy for “Larger Than Life,” an eightfoot statue of Diana Lewis was required to topple precariously on its pedestal. Invisible wires were used to aid in the toppling and as a safety measure. Suddenly one of the wires snapped and the 150-pound statue
crashed to the floor, shattering a table, lamp and other set props. Fortunately the actors were out of range. Because the statue plays an important part in the story, production had to be suspended for the day because the statue was broken beyond repair.
