Not only are the summer students learning the rudiments of conducting, but they are taking an informal course in criticism as well. For, while one student reads a score and swings the stick over an imaginary orchestra, his classmates watch closely for faulty or absent entrance cues, and for sins of omission and commission in the matter of mood, dynamics and facial expression,

Husband's a Good Egg, Hedy Learns

With Director

in Supporting Role.

OLLYWOOD, July 10.—All over the lot:

Hedy Lamarr was sup-

posed to be cooking breakfast for Robert Taylor. Standing before the stove, she gingerly held an egg that a property man had handed

her. “It will be awkward,” good at breaking eggs.”

she told Director Jack Conway.

“I am not

“Go on and bust it,” said Mr. Conway.

Miss Lamarr still hesitated. “I theenk it is old,” she objected. “It kind of rattles. Maybe I would do better with a fresh egg.” “Maybe you think we've got nothing to do around here but find fresh eggs for you,” snapped Mr, Conway. “You don't have to eat it; you just have to break it in that pan. Now quit beefing and do what you're told.” The actress’ lips trembled and she turned quickly and broke the egg. Out fell a ring—a star sapphire as big as a nickel. It was a gift from her husband, Gene Markey, who had enlisted Mr. Conway and the prop man in the surprise plot. » » »

HAVE found out about that “Dr. Cyclops” picture, the set for which is being so carefuly guarded against the curious. Ernest Schoedsack, who directed “King Kong,” has swung the other way this time and is making some of his characters appear to be only a fifth of their normal size. It's a fantastic story about a lone and looney scientist who has a radium mine deep in the Andean jungle. When two other white men and a girl find his retreat

and discover his secret, he puts them into a ray contraption that reduces them until they're scarcely a foot tall. This is to prevent their escape. The rest of the picture is concerned with the struggles and bewilderment of these tiny victims in normal-sized surroundings. Of course a good deal of trick photography is being used, but it, also has been necessary to construct sets with chairs, tables and all familiar objects five times their normal dimensions. At one time they strain and heave at an enormous shotgun in the hope of killing the mad scientist. Again, they manage to climb upon his desk intent on breaking his spectacles, without which he is nearly blind. But only one lens is shattered; hence the film's title. Through process photography the captives are shown being chased by a rooster much taller than themselves. ”n on ”

ISITORS are scarcely more welcome on the set of “Are Husbands Necessary” in which Madeleine Carroll, Fred MacMurray and a precocious, undersized child of 4 are trying to work out the answer, Edward Griffith, the director, has kept the set closed because, he said, any strangers distracted the attention of the little girl, Carolyn Lee.
