"The Posi ion in Times: Writer's List.
By JAMES THRASHER
About this time every year, pro-|
fessional surveyors of Hollywood's hits and misses find the Christmas spirit complicated by another beneficent emotion. It is the desire
(and one | that’s fast becoming tra-}|
ditional) to select a group of pictures which have contributed much to our enjoyment and have demonstrated, despite preponderant evi.dence to [the contrary, that movies
iewer always selects 10 pictures. |The reason for this magic number is forgotten, if it ever “was known. ybe it’s something the Film Daily thought up in‘the dim cinema past of the early 1920. The BIblarY vista sometimes is a disadvantage, but ro one seems brave enough to break the spell. So here are one movie-goer’s selections, in .the order of preference: “Snow | White and the Seven Dwarfs.” “The Citadel.” “Test Pilot.” ; “You Gan’t Take It With You.” “The Adventures of Robin Hood.” “To the Victor.” : “Four Daughters.” “The Hurricane.” “Three Comrades.” “A Slight Case of Murder.” Reason for the first choice should be obvious to anyone who saw the picture. | Walt Disney gave us* a - heart-warming fantasy of universal, ageless charm and humor, done with high artistry and enormous labor. He opened up an entire new field of possibility. “The Citadel” Refreshing “The Citadel” brought a refreshing breeze of frankness into an industry whose story-telling too often is timid and stereotyped. “Test Pilot” and “Rokin Hood” were vastly different in subject, yet served to show us again the camera's great possibilities of scope and sweep and movement. With the extra blessing of a good story and good acting, © “Test Pilot” meade its audiences conquerors of the sky with some thrilling’ photography. “Robin Hood” made swashbuckling a fascinating colorful | business—especially colorful, thanks to the film’s rich hues. As much should be said for “The Hurricane.” Here we saw once more the camera’s capacity for spectacle. Samuel | Goldwyn’s wind machines were the picfure’s heroes. They whipped up a storm which held us tense and breathless for some 20 minutes, and left us exhausted and vastly entertained. In quieter mood was the Britishmade “To the Victor.” A picture of amazing simplicity of theme, it was so gracefully conceived and directed, so flawlessly acted and photographed as to leave one at a loss to catch even a fraction of its charm in words. So it just had to be put on the “best” list with no .more ado.
Ah, Those Sycamores
“You Can’t Take It With You” turned out to be funnier than the play, which was funny indeed. The daffy, happy family of Sycamores
would brighten any movie season. And “Al Slight Case of Murder,” a screaming blend of homicide and hilarity, turned out to be one of the best comedies of its sort ever made. xcelient performances made “Four Daughters” and ‘Three Comrades’” memorable, and their stories, furthermore, had the virtues of honesty and simplicity. There were other good pictures, with plenty of merits, which somehow missed rising to the top for one reason or another. Among these should be lisied “Storm in a Teacup,” “Marie Antoinette,” “In Old Chicago,” “The Sisters,” “Men With Wings,” “The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse,” “Judge Hardy's Children,” “That Certain Age” and “Sing You Sinners,” There are 10 of those, - too! ;
10 Best Performances
For the 10 best star performances I would select . Spencer Tracy in “Test Pilot” and “Boys Town,” Margaret Sullavan in “Three Comrades,” Robert | Dorat in “The Citadel,” Bette Davis in “The Sisters,” Will Fyffe in “To the Victor,” Walter Huston in “Of Human Hearts,” Priscilla Lane in “Four Daughters,” Mickey Rooney in “Judge Hardy's Children,” Douglas Fairbanks Jr. in “The Young in Heart”—and certainly Dopey in “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” ;
Supporting players contributed a higher level of performance than the featured actors mentioned above. At least, there is much to be said for John Garficld’s debut in “Four - Daughters,” Fay Bainter in “White Banrers,” Sara Allgood in “Storm in a Teacup,” Ralph Richardson in “The Citadel,” Robert. Morley in “Marie Antoinette,” Gene Lockhart “Algiers,” Lew ‘Ayres in “Holiday,” Alice Brady in “In Old Chicago,” Roland Young in “The Young in Heart” and Mischa Auer in “You Can’t Take It With You.” The meeting will now be open’ for * discussion. ;

Opera Singers, for the Most Part, Duck the Bright Lights When They're Not on Stage.
EW YORK, Dec. 26—The lives of those backstage at the Metropolitan Opera House are not as tensely. social as the lives of those spectacular spectators who cccupy the Diamond Horseshoe. Opera singers, for the most part, abhor plush places and elaborate ceremony and places where they are well known to lay patrons.

Jeeter Is Here Again
‘Tobacco Road' to Open at English's Tonight.
Having enjoyed Christmas dinner in Indianapolis (and no turnips on the menu!) the “Tobacco Road” company is ready to set up shop at English’s tonight for its fourth consecutive year. The engagement is
for a week, with Wednesday and Saturday matinees, and a special New Year's Eve performance at 11:15 p. m. It has been many years since a straight drama has played the city four times, but it is no new experience for the protagonists of this Erskine Caldwell - Jack Kirkland play. The road record is almost as impressive as the Broadway run, now: in its sixth year. “Tobacco Road” played 16 weeks in Los Angeles, 14 in Philadelphia, and seven each in San Francisco and Chicago. Of the more than 200 towns and cities visited, from one to six return engagements have been played in 58 of them. John Barton again is playing Jeeter Lester, and the company has a new Ada in Sara Perry. There are five other newcomers in the cast. ” 3 ” The second college revue within a week will be seen at the Murat
tomorrow night when the University of Pennsylvania’ Mask and Wig Club presents its current offering, “All Around the Town,” under sponsorship of local alumni. Dr. Clay Boland, writer of many hit tunes, again has done the show’s songs this year. The revue, in 'two acts and 21 scenes, follows a Scottish contest winner in his meanderings about Manhattan. o ” on
Edward Steinmetz Jr., the Civic Theater director, has announced the casts for the three one-act plays from Noel Coward’s 8:30,” which the Civic will present for six nights beginning Jan. 13. Players in “Fumed Oak” will be William McGregor Morris, Dorothy Robinson, Sara Lauter and Audrey Ann Brown. “Hands Across the Sea” will have Muriel Knight; Yvonne Thompson, Thomas Morgan, Stuart Dean, Christine Morris, Ronald Skyrme, Dr. Wayne Ritter, George Fetheringham and Mary Drake Denig. The cast for “Ways and Means” includés Elizabeth Hasler Ruckelshaus, Horace F. Hill III,- George Fotheringham, Winifred Skyrme, Martha Martin, Robert MofTett, Stuart Dean and Lurene Merkle Gibbs.
$20,000 JOB IS VERY UNPOPULAR
HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 26 (U. P.).— The $20,000 job of standing up to a lashing with a 25-foot bull whip in the movies, was handed around for the third time today. Actor Brian Donlevy took the unwelcome assignment, which occurs in a scene of the picture “Union Pacific.” Villain Akim Tamireff will snap the whip around Mr. Donlevy’s head and shoulders. Mr. Tamiroff practiced for months under a professional whip-cracker, and supposedly can lash a man without injuring him, but at least one other actor wouldn't take the chance. Charles Bickford refused the part. He has already been seriously injured twice in pictures, once by the claws of a lion, and said that’s enough. Actor J. Carrol Naish was next handed the job, but another assignment conflicted.
BURNS AND ALLEN ASK TAX REFUND
HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 26 (U. P.).— George Burns, the radio comedian who pleaded guilty to smuggling in New York, and Gracie Allen, his wife and partner, earned $170,000 in 1935, their lawyer said at a tax hearing here. . . The radio team asked a $3800 refund on a $6000. California income tax payment. The plea is based on the fact that $50,000 of their earnings that year were made in New York State. : The State Board of Equalization took the matt

Schenck Reply in Suit Denies Cash Drain.
NEW YORK, Dec. 26 (U. P.).— Some movie stars, such as Ronald Colman, get a handsome salary plus 10 per cent of the gross from their every picture. But no such arrangements drain the coffers of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, according to testimony heard in Supreme Court.
The testimony was by Nicholas Schenck, president of Loew’s, Inc. holding company for M-G-M, in a deposition presented at the trial of a thirty-million accounting suit against Loew’s. Eight minority stockholders seek an accounting from 1927 to date, charging mismanagement, waste, payment of excessive salaries and bonuses to favored employees and nepotism in the corporation’s direc-
Mr. Schenck’s deposition was one of those presented bearing on the technical and financial aspects: of the case. In it he told of having a hard time employing Sam Katz, who he thought would be a valuably asset to the company. But L. B. Mayer, another of the high executives, didn’t like him personally and didn’t want to have him around. = Nevertheless, Mr. Schenck finally had his way by convincing Mr. Mayer that Mr. Katz’ quality was adequate to offset personal dislike. Another deposition was by Arthur Loew, head of the foreign department, who is 1919 went to work for the company at $30 a week and now is said to get $3500 a week plus 5 per cent net of Loew’s foreign profit. Emil K..Ellis, chief defense counsel for the stockholders, scoffed at reports that an out-of-court settlement was in the offing, saying: “There will be no settlement. The trial will go through to the finish and the court will render judgment.” The plaintiffs were expected to rest their case, early next week with the testimony of William Fox. The defense was expected to require a week to present its case. :

While the Senafe was considering the $4,000,000,000 spending-lending bill last session, Senator Lewis suggested that the Government lend to industry and business to revitalize private employment. “I warn Senators that they. are now not engaged in a temporary undertaking,” Mr. Lewis said then. “This thing you have begun is on its way to a permanent feature of this: Government.”
