ELEPHANTS ARE BLINDED
BY STRONG MOVIE LIGHT
BuckctfuIs OF Eycwash Needed After
Taking of "PoIly of the
Circus Films

OF one thing you may be certain:
If Powers famous New York Hippo
drome herd of elephants are ever con-
suited in advance they will trumpet
shrilly and resist going again into
motion pictures. When you witness
Goldwyn's huge photo-spectacle star
ring Mae Marsh in Polly of the Cir
Gus" you will not dream of the trou-
bile that the elephants had while the
picture was being screened
To add To the effectiveness of many
OF the scenes all of the parts dealing
with the circus were taken at night.
This resulted IN better photography
and more realism, but il also made it
necessary for the director of the pic
ture to use huge batteries of lights.

The rays of the giant Klelgls were
so powerful that early in their work
before the camera all of the elephants
went blind and following this the big
animals became unmanageabl Bile. After
the work was over each night the big
beasts refused to lie down and sleep
and huge tears rolled from their eyes.
Bucketfuls OF eyewash were admin
istered, but it took days of treatment
to restore their sight. The animals,
however, were not the only sufferers.
Nearly all Of the principals in Polly
of the Circus" including Mae Marsh,
the star, and all of the members of
the directorial staff. went around
with badly swollen eyes for days after
the filming Of the important night
scenes.
