Three big names are mentioned in con-
hection with possible new coalition fore
cast IN the Philadelphia correspondence OF

are Stanley V. Mastbaum, A. II. Woods and
David w. Griffith. The story goes on to
say that current reports speak Of Mr..
woods, well known as a theatrical producer.
as curtallng his activities in regard to the
speaking stage and devoting his time In fu-
ture TO the production Of movies. II is
added that he and Mr.. Mastbaum are about
10 form feature film concern with
special releasing proposition" There is q
possibility the article concludes that
ID. w, Griffith Is to become interested with
them in the venture"
Through several sources outside Of the
Woods office in New York II was learned
that Mr. Woods had been freely expressing
his Intention TO go in for picture production
extensively In the future. During the last
two weeks he informed no less than three
persons OF his intention to lay off on play
producing and devote his time to pictures
Victor Leighton, his general booking man
