William has outgrown the nick
name of Buster" which was ap-
piled to him when he first appeared
in the public eye. This was about
four years ago when Thomas Ince
was producing for the Triangle
Company. Buster" made his screen
debut in The Bugle Call" a West
ern melodrama, and showed great
promise. 1t was decided, however,
that his studies must occupy the
greater part of his time and his
appearances were very infrequent
for a time until a few months ago
when he appeared in conjunction
with William Collier, sr, in the
farce, The Servant Question"
For a short space of time it was
undecided whether he would follow
along the comedy lines made famous
by his father and for which he
shows such great promise. or to
play juvenile leads, for which he is
admiral suited both by his years
and appearance. He could not re-

juvenile roles opposite so charm

result is his characterization of

poverty-stricken girl who had to
forge her references to gain en-
ployment.
or course the spurious recon-
mendations plunged her into prompt
dificulties. In the old days that
would have sufficed. Now, however,
we find the preliminary situation
bulwarked by a series of thorough
ly logical correlated episodes that
find quick response in every con-
sciousness. For instance, in one

who sees a fine revenge in leaving
them to swim ashore to a strange
community with no other wearing
apparel for the night than their
bathing suits. Who hasn't had the
nightmare that, comes at least once
in a life time of dreaming that he
was attending a formal social func-
ton in his pajamas. or a state BAN
quet in his underwear?
The spectacle of others harassed
by difficulties that we ourselves have
suffered under is source of un-
ending merriment and the makers of
the new comedies are utilizing that
bit of human nature more adroitly
than they did.
So, too. is the climax of the story
made sharper in it's appeal by an
other Introduction of perfectly nat
ural reaction in place of the old
time unbelievable coincidence. In
Good References" the rich social
climber who has striven to wean her
youthful nephew away from his
sporting inClinations and make him

man when she sees him engaged in
a fight with a professional pugilist.

roots for the family pride in words
about like these: Hit him, Will
lam. remember you're Marshall
and a roughneck," A touch of re-
version to type that lends the pic
ture an authority that was unheard
of even two years ago in camera
comedy.
1t has long been the cry that the
producers of comedy are tagging be-
hind their public in the quality of
the entertainment they sponsor
Good References" Is a convincing
refutation of this more or less un-
dcrstanable charge and may be ac-
Cepted not as an isolated instance OF
accidental proficiency but as another
evidence that the motion picture in
all its branches is travelling the way
OF progress.

keep the pie where it belongs-in

openly in his declaration that as
