What the Musicians Are Doing -.
Byron Morgan Advises
Cooperation Between
Author and Director

"The author to succeed in motion
picture scenario writing to-day must
not only learn the technique of the
screen on the home grounds so to
speak; must not only devote the
same amount of time and care to
scenario work that he would to the
dramatizing of a novel for the stage
or the writing of an original play for
the older medium; but, in addition he
must get closer to the director, work
with him, think with him, argue with
him, and be his shadow if possible
till the picture is finished"
Thus speaks Byron Morgan, short
story writer, several of whose auto
mobile tales in The Saturday Evening
Post have been used as Paramount pic
lures starring Wallace Reid; author
Of a collection of tales of motoring
called "The Roaring Road" and who
is now on the west coast scenario staff
of the Famous Players Lasky Corpora
ton studying the art of scenario writ
ing.
Mr. Morgan told how he spent hours
daily in discussion with Sam Wood,
who directed some of the Reid pictures.
"We used to argue back and forth,
pro and con. | would suggest some
thing, maybe he would approve, maybe
not-and he never hcstated to say one
way or the other. The same with me,
and between us the story developed,
and | am sure was better story than
it would have been if | had merely
written my scenario and folded my
hands, leaving it all to the director.
Of course, the author must not be a
pest. But any sensible director will
admit that it is a benefit to have the

Hurry" | am certain the fact of such
cooperation resulted in some very
beneficial results.

good actress at all. "My daughter"
she explained proudly.
Seldom does an actress, with only one
previous New York appearance to her
credit, step into the role of a new play
and score an instantaneous success
That is just what Lotus Robb did in
Clare Runners comedy. One critic
called her "the perfect Kummerte" and
others were equally sure that she was
the ideal Hummer heroine.
"If you say that l am the same off
stage as l am in 'Rollo's Wild Oat' it
will not reflect creditably on my ability
as an actress, will it ?" she asked shyly.
Without rejecting at all on Miss
Robb's ability as an actress (she has
proved that she has great ability, it
must be said that as Lotus Robb she
seems precisely the same modest, simple,
shy girl, possessed with a gentle sense
of humor, that she is as Goldie MacDutt
III the play Her hestancy, her shyness
are not assumed simply for stage pur-
poses Miss Robb cannot be otherwise,
1t takes art to reproduce ones self so
exactly in the glare of the footlights.
Previous to joining the cast of
"Rollo's Wild Oat" Miss Robb was
member of the Sclwyn organization. and
it was in one of their productions "Why
Marry?" that she made her only other
New York appearance. Originally the
Selwyns had planned to present the
Hummer comedy but when theatrical
conditions prevented this the author
took it over herself and Miss Robb went
with the play.
Born in the East, Miss Robb was sent
to the Far West for her schooling, at
tending the Annie Wright Seminary at
Tacoma, Wash. When she was about
seven years old her mother was playing
with the Glitch Stock Company in Dem
yer and little Lotus made her first pro-
fesslonal appearance in a performance
of "a Midsummer Nights Dream
After her schooling was over she joined
the Woodward stock company of Oma-
ha, and played with this organization
and also with the Denham stock com.
pany of Denver. She had a part in
Fair and Warmer" in a tour to the
Pacific Coast and also had an opportu-
nifty to play Madge Kennedys role in
the play. After "Why Marry?" which
was her only New York appearance pre-
vious to her present engagement, she
was in "The .Challegne" and in sonny.
neither of which has as yet reached
Broadway.
"Really. I should have had week to
prepare for this interview said Miss
Robb. "Thcn | might have been able to
tell you about something besides my
stage experience and my daughter. You
know, l think it is silly for people on
the stage 10 make secrets of their mar
riagcs and family life. don't believe
