pany for three years; was a member
Of the metropolitan opera company Of
New York City and her wonderful
singing and acting in such operas as

Bull Moose.

The first assignment given Howard
Truesdcll when he was made asso-
ciate director to Fred ]. I}alshofer, for
forthcoming Quallty-Metro feature
production, was to locatoa wild and
fcrocious pack OF timber wolves and
q bull moose. 1t was absolutely nee
essary that the wolves and moose be
wild, as tame beasts would not an
swer the purpose. Mr.. Truesdell con-
ferred with "Bill" Snyder, the head
animal keeper at the geological gar
den in Central park, New York, and
learned that In northern Maine there
is n community where timber wolves
are being bred. 81

iHe Immediately got into communi-
cation with tho Maine folks, and OBJ
tanned permission TO stage The prcduo-
ton there. The scenes will be made
In snow bound country, and the
wolves will follow and attack party
riding in a sledge. In order to get
proper action on the part Of the wolves
they will be penned UP Tor several
days, and given but little food, Then
a meat drag will be made over the
territory. where they will be turned
loose, and a quantity OF meat placed
in the slcdge to attract them to 1t. In
the final scene, where the wolves sur
round tho sledge, dummy will nat
urally be used, as most motion pic
ture actors draw the line alta violent
death.
To Play It Himself
The moose will be used In q thrill
ing scene where 1t will BIO seen In an
attack upon hunter. Mr. Truesdell
will probably play this role himself,
as he is absolutely fearlessswhen he
can obtain q realistic effect in pic
lures. The production Is yetunnnmeds s
but It promises to be one Of the best
OF Metros features in the now year.

WARMING
Is Shouted to Ruth RoIand,on
Screen by Absorbed
Spectator.

In the old days Of melodrama, it
was not unusual for some absorbed
member of an audience in the gallery
to call out and toll the hero that the
villain was hiding behind nearby
rock. It was not believed that degree
Of wrapped attention would ever de-
velop at a picture play, however.
Yet, this is just what occurred In a
Los Angeles house recently where
1.-THE Red Circle" the big Balboa de-
tectlve story was showing. AS Ruth
Roland was about to step into trap,
someone shrieked a warning to her,
just as If she had been there to hear.
More and more, the illusion Of the
films is becoming complete.
