Year Planned By Warners

Schedule for 1939-40 Season Leans Heavily To Biographies.

The beginning of a’'movie studio’s year is neither calendar, fiscal nor entirely logical. So the present

week finds Warner Bros. celebrating |

New Year’s at its annual sales convention and, incidentally, announcing productions for 1939-40. At the same time that Vice President J. L. Warner is outling plans for his salesmen in New York today, moviegoers are being privileged to sit in, with the help of their local newspapers, and find out what is going to happen. Warners, it seems, will produce 48 pictures in 1939-40, of which more than 30 will be of the “A” variety. And since the company has a talented array of character actors, the schedule leans heavily toward biog-

Muni to Play Beethoven

Paul Muni, who has done “Pasteur,” “Zola” and “Juarez,” which is yet to be released, is slated to begin work soon on “The Life ‘of Beethoven.” Also on the list are “The Life of Knute Rockne,” “The Story of Dr. ) Robinson as the famous medical scientist; “The Story of John Paul Jones,” starring James Cagney; a remake of “Disraeli,” with Claude

“John Dillinger, Outlaw,” and “The Bishop Who Walked With God,” Quentin Reynolds’ story of the Rev. Martin Niemoeller, now in a German concentration camp. Bette Davis will be starred in two adaptations of stage successes: “The Old Maid” and “The Knight and the Lady” from Maxwell Anderson’s “Elizabeth the Queen,” which Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne did eight years ago. Errol Flynn will play Essex. Two musical adaptations also are planned. They are “On Your Toes,” the Rodgers and Hart opus, and “The Desert Song,” which will

The list of dramatized novels has Mr. Flynn and Olivia de Havilland costarred in a new production of “The Sea Hawk.” Rachel Field's “All This and Heaven Too” will be a third vehicle for Miss Davis, and Mr. Robinson is té star in Somerset Maugham’s “The Moon and Sixpence.”

Stewart Borrowed From M-G-M.

Warners will film another Lloyd C. Douglas book in “Forgive Us Our Trespasses,” with John Garfield featured. Other book-movies will be Jerome Odlum’s “Duty Be My Destiny,” also with Mr. Garfield; James Hilton’s “We Are Not Alone,” and Louise Bromfield’s “And If All Came True,” for which occasion James Stewart has been borrowed from M-G-M. Two sequels are listed: “Four Wives” and a successor to “Brother Rat,” as yet untitled. as one might guess, will follow the careers of “Four Daughters,” with all the original cast except John Garfield, who won’t be brought to life even for box-office purposes. Several short stories will be expanded to feature proportions, and films are planned using the Army Air Service, the U. S. Cavalry and the State Department and Diplomatic Service as backgrounds. And Mr. Flynn has been assigned the title part in “The Adventures of Don Juan.” Twelve short features (2000 . to 4000 feet long) are planned as a continuation of the patriotic and historical series now under way, and which has included “Give Me Liberty,” “The Declaration of Independence” and “Lincoln in the White House.” These “featurets” are considered by Warners to be a powerful weapon in solving the double-feature problem, a task to which the executives have pledged considerable time and attention for the coming year.

SOUTHPORT PUPILS TO PRESENT PLAY

Members of the juior class of Southport High School will present “Parents and Pigtails” at 8 p. m. Wednesday in the high school. Cast members include Robert Hancock, Lela Ruth Groves, Zona Betty Ruffin, Marjorie Miller, - Betty Bunch, Carol Davis, Sylvia McCormick, John Roth, George Adrian, Jack Moore and James Mobley.

“I'm so excited,” murmursd Flaine to an actor. “I couldn’; eat any breakfast. I feel all churned up inside. I must calm down before we start. Oh, Honey Lamb---" Honey Lamb is ‘her affectionate nickname for her husband with the world-famed profile. He pla fully calls her Mrs. Snodgrass, 2s an endearment, though Elaine wishass he didn’t. This being the first time that she will be seen on the stage, the Ariel to the captured Ca lingp naturally is nervous. The director beckoned the couple into a huddle about the script. Then two photographers poised thejr flashlight bulbs and cameras and posed the trio. Elaine also confided her jittery feelings to them. “I'm trying so hard,” she said. “I must make good, I simply must make good!” Her husband interrupted, “Let’s get everybody together,” he suggested, and when the cast had been assembled, he drew a | crayon from his pocket and started sketching the “My Dear Children” troupe —with Elaine in the forefront. he keeps these pictorial mementos for the family album. Somewhere in the dark auditorium sat Elaine’s mama. waiching the proceedings, withou! a suggestion or a word of advice, though Elaine’s mama fakes a lively interest in her daughter's nrofessional career. It was Mrs. Barrie who didn’t think Elaine was quite ready for Shakespeare when the possibility was discussed of yoducing “Hamlet” with John as the Melancholy Dane and Elaine as Ophelia. Eavesdroppers looking around for Elaine’s favorite uncle couldn’t locate him in the darkenzd playhouse.

By GORGE ROSS Tires Special Writer NEW YORK, March 13.—The John Barrymores are as blissful as a And Elaine wanted to be on the stage. So the Barrymores, emulating Lunt & Fontanne, started rehearsing

together, away back when the Ariel

and Caliban romance was’ in the

initial stages. Play Bad? John Dozes!

Now that the Barrymores have gone to work—and rehearsal is arduous work—the town will see less

of them at the premiers and night clubs. They've been batting around a good deal lately, jamming up the entrances to the theaters on Opening Nights where the autograph hunters milled around. They usually managed to sit down shortly after the show started, so there wasn’t much excitement in the aisles. A discriminating playgoer, incidentally; Mr. Barrymore disregards the bad plays by dozing off politely. When he grows slumbersome on these justifiable occasions, Elaine prods him gently on the arm. He rouses quickly at these signals. Most of the couple’s public life is managed with high efficiency by Elaine. She chooses the shows they attend, the restaurants where they dine, and the supper clubs where they wind up before going home, Elaine’s mama may proffer a helpful hint, now and then, but to all appearances, she hovers in the background. Nevertheless, she maintains a commanding eye over Mis. Barrymore’s wardrobe and probably will keep a supervisory eye over the clothes Elaine will wear in “My Dear Children.” . Elaine’s role, by the way, is that of Barrymore’s daughter in this show. John Barrymore’s profiled features haven't been seen on the Broadway stage since 1924 when he

appeared in one of the most me-|

morable of the “Hamlets.” He was content enough to remair. in Hollywood until Elaine was bitten by the histrionic bug.

Roaring Leo |

Leo the Lion is best remembered mark, with sound. More than 20 years ago, when Samuel Goldfish |; resigned as chairman of the Paramount board of directors and or ganized Goldwyn Pictures Corp, he wanted a nonpiscatorial trademark. A young advertising man just out of Columbia University suggested a lion, It was adopted, and its survived subsequent mergers with Meitopolitan and the interests of Louis B. Mayer. Goldwyn now has no

the lion remains; also the Latin inscription, “Ars Gratia Artis,” which in practical translation means “ Art for art’s sake.”

With the advent of sound, Leo egan to growl. Fact is, there ware several Leos. Every now and then somebody would glimpse a more imposing lion in a zoo, and he would be photographed for a new title strip. The official Leos thus became so numerous that M-G-M finclly decided to squelch the confusion with a story that the real Io was to be taken back.to Africa and rveleased in the jungle. Intended as an humanitarian gesture, the yarn brought protests from animal lovers who believed that a lion reared in captivity would soon starve or be slain in the wilds.

of all because it’s an inamate trade-

Famous Players merged with the Jesse Lasky company. - The best brains of the concern handling the advertising account went into a huddle and decided that a rugged mountain peak was a logical symuool. Since the studio was famed for .its stars, the mountain was crowned with a ring of stars.

It was away back in 1912 that the Universal name and trademark were originated. Carl Laemmles Sr. was forming his company and he wanted a really big, all-inclusive title, Pacing his office and pausing only to reject the suggestions of associates, he happened to glance out of the window. He st6pped, snapped his fingers and said, “I got it—‘Universal’!” The idea had come from the letterig on a horse-drawn truck which was passing the studio, a truck owned by the Universal Icz Co.

The 20th Century-Fox frademark is the result of a merger hetween the old Fox Film Corp. and the new concern headed by Darryl F. Zanuck. One of his writers, Sam Engel, suggested the 20th Century part, and the skyscrapers.and flashing lights were the idea of Producer William Goetz. It was designed, even at the beginning, so that the “Fox” portion can be dropped off at any time. The famous “stuttering tower” on the Radio (R-K-O) Pictures screen trademark was evolved in 1929 along with the reorganization from the old FBO company. At first there were two radio towers atop a globe;

“TRULY A REMEMBERED SERVICE”

IRVING 3

Is Hailed in

First Violin Section Given Plaudits for Rendition Of Fiorillo Etude.

By JAMES THRASHER An afternoon of cosmopolitan music rewarded a large and enthusiastic audience which heard Fabien

“| Sevitzky and the Indianapolis Sym-

phony Orchestra in the season's fourth popular concert at the Murat yesterday. : Specifically, there were compositions by a Russian, an Austrian, a Finn, a German and an Italian and Russian who have adopted America as their home. The soloists were James Hosmer and Rebecca Lewis, who emerged from their places in the orchestra to play the Mozart Concerto for flute and harp. . The concerto was something of a cooing dove among the roaring lions. It followed a spirited rendition of the first two movements of Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Scheherazade,” and was succeeded by Cesana’s boisterous “Negro Heaven.” Also on the sound-and-fury side was the “Tannhauser” Overture, which was the program’s rousing finale.

A “Hunger” Concerto

Though history assures us that Mozart had little love for the harp or flute, or of writing a concerto for them, it is hard for the listener to realize that this work was. written “strictly from hunger.” Even grumbling distaste, evidently, could not hide Mozart’s genius. For this concerto is rich in beauty, and written to show the soloists’ best capabilities in masterful fashion. ' The performance was for the most part satisfactory. There were many instances where Miss Lewis’ harp was scarcely audible against the orchestra or her fellow soloist, and the general impression was one of constraint rather than bravura. It

|should be said that, tonally, Mr.

Hosmer’s playing was ‘the best of his three solo appearances with the orchestra, and both he and Miss Lewis left little to be desired in the matter of technique. The hit of the dhy, as far as the audience was concerned, was the “Negro Heaven.” Mr. Sevitzky introduced the work last year, and yesterday he seemed to surpass his former performance in the capture of contrasting moods, and the ability to whip up a torrent of sound while still keeping a firm hold upon the musical rudder. However, Mr. Cesana’s composition sounds less like a musical synthesis of Negro. characteristics, which it sets out to be, than it does a concert arrangement: of his tunes from a Broadway musical comedy. First Violins Score

One of the program’s most enjoyable features was a “massed solo” performance of a Fiorillo Etude by the first violin section, abetted by three of the second violinists. Fiorillo is a now-forgotten composer who, in his day, held a position similar to that of Kreutzer. Spohr and Paganini as a writer of technical studies for the violin. Yesterday’s arrangement was by Arcady Dubensky, and proved to be quite as effective as the Molinari transcription of the Paganini “Moto Perpetuo” which Mr. Sevitzky and the orchestra did last year. The fiddlers gave a brilliant account of Fiorillo music.

Here's one for the quiz fans. What Indianapolis institution lends half a million dollars a month without security? : Give up? It's the Indianapolis Public Library! Last month the Central Library and its 21 branches loaned 287,244 books, = Librarian L. L. Dickerson says. Estimating the value of each book at $2, the total would be $574, 488. For security the library has only a file ofknames and addresses. Every 60 seconds the library lends 105 books, Mr. Dickerson says. Yet all that is needed to withdraw a book is a person’s name and address But, says Mr. Dickerson, with that circulation, the depreciation is proportionately high. Books are wearing out faster than they can be replaced That is why he renewed his plea today for donations of used books His first appeal last week brought more than 800 books, he said today The average book lasts for 10 to 15
