VOICE from the Balcony by FREMONT POWER

GETTING A 24-HOUR JUMP ON THE competition, Loew’s this

week will open its new show—“The Chocolate Soldier”--on Thursday. And the biggest news-coincident with this action is that the film marks the motion picture debut of a rising new mezzo-soprano, Rise

Stevens.

Those allied with the Matinee Musicale had the good fortune of hearing Miss Stevens in a recital here’ last spring and so it’s hardly surprising to ‘them that she is now reaping critical plaudits as a new

“discovery.” Stevens’ is an excellent voice. . ‘What is news, perhaps, is the fact that Miss Stevens also is receiving praise as an actress. William Boehnel of the New York World-Telegram had this to say about Miss Stevens in her first picture: She “sings with great beauty, but she also plays the part of the wife (opposite Nelson Eddy) with charm and a complete unconcern for the presence of cameras.” From this it appears quite probable that Miss Stevens: will. be

itself. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the story is that

‘she once turned down an offer

As to her first cinema effort,

suffice;it to say that “The Choc= ‘olate Soldier,” the popular operetta by Oscar Straus, is laid to the plot of the old Lunt and Fontanne vehicle, “The Guardsman.” Customarily, “The Soldier” : is played to George Bernard Shaw's “Arms and the Man,” but Metro didn’t have the rights to that one, and hence the switch to “Guardsman.” As the plot comes ouf in this version, Mr. Eddy and Miss Stevens are husband and wife, play‘ing in a traveling production of “The Chocolate Soldier.” Jealous
