WASHINGTON An exponent of the highly successful school of actor-directors is Robert Ellis, the youn Selznick dirwtnr vhn

recently completed the filming of, George Barr McCutchenn'u "a wnnt '

and His Money." O'Brien's latest starring vehicle, which comes to the Washington theater Sunday. He was leading man with Olive Thomas in "The Spite Bride" and "Upstairs and Down." BefVr that h

was featured in other pictures, and; before that to really get to the bot-i toaa of things he was on the legitimate .stage under the management'

nrsi or me snuDerts and then Klaw & Erlanger. One of the secrets of Ellis success in directing pictures lies in the fact that he himself knows how to act. He not only knows how a person should register, but he can show that person how. There is, perhaps, no director of pictures today who gets closer co-operation from his companies than Robert Ellis for that very reason. MURRAY As Luk Chan, the hfehhinricr onH

i chief hatchetman of the secret society i

m me long in "The Tong Man," Ses.sue Hayakawa has the most unusual

and thrilling role he has ever essayed in pictures. There is nothing "soft" about this role for Hayakawa. "The Tong Man" is a bad "Chink," a desperate, ruthless hatchetman who doesn't hesitate to brain an enemy or a faithless member of the Tong. His one redeeming trait is his love for the beautiful Chinese maiden, Sen Cb.ee, whom he rescues after a desperate fight with a

gang of Tongmen, and then sails away to China with his bride-to-be.
