May Allison's Real Name

Like the singing of Caruso, the
hOme-run hitting of Babe Ruth or
the golf-playing of Walter Hagen
is the rich Southern beauty of May
Allison, star of Are All Men Alike?'
the picture which begins a week 5
run at Loew's Palace today.
To the motion-picturegoer May
Allison is a vision of bright beauty.
She links up with the orchid in her
appeal to the eye. Yet there are
few outside of her immediate family
circle who know-nor could they
comprehend it if they did-that May
Allison, despite her lOveliness of
face and form, is one OF the most
earnest, conscientious and thor
oughiy self-saCrifcing young women
at present adOrning the silver
screen.
Everybody around the Metro
studios in Hollywood is aware that
May Allison places her art before
everything else. She is aware of
the bounteous dover of beauty that
nature has bestowed upon her; but,
being aware of it, she guards it as
a precious heritage. May and the
white lights are never seen together.
She is early to bed and early to
rise: and the hours that she puts
in at the studios under the kliegs
and the COoper-Hewitts, or out on
location are hours crowded with
serious endeavor and painstaking
effort.
May Allison admits that she really
was considerably fiustered when
she took her first actual step
toward becoming an actress. She
had come to New York from her
native Southland-she was born in
Georgia, but reared in Birmingham,
Ala.-with no professional expert
ence, with only her smile, her beat
en- gold. sunny hair, a soprano voice
with the witchery of real melody
in it-and confidencs.
The confidence disappeared sud-
denly when she presented herself
in Henry W. Savage's office and
asked for A job. She was asked in
return for her name. Several trick
stage names, prepared with much
elaboration at boarding school,
were on the tip of her tongue
Clsrice Van Alstyne. Gwehdolyn de
Rsszke, and the like. But when

The Race of the Age

Not in all the history Of great
international events has there been
such elaborate precautions taken to
insure exclusive pictures as was
done during the great race between
Man o. War and Sir Barton at
Windsor. Ont. and which is shown
only in The Race of the Age" the
added feature attraction at Moore s
Garden Theater all week beginning
today.
The record-breaking price OF s1O,-
900 was paid to the kenilwOrth
Jockey Club for the motion picture
rights of the race, the officials OF
the track and the owners Of the
two horses being guided in their
decision by the fact that they knew
il would be presented by Educa-
tional Films Corporation in man
ner that would emphasize the les
sons Of physical care and thorough
training, and Of determination and
The neyer-say-die spirit on the part
of the horses themselves.
For several days before the race
every portion Of the track was
patrollCd by private detectives 10
make sure that not even an ordl-
nary camera was brought inside
and left there to be used on the
day of the big race. Moving pic
ture cameras were kept entirely
away from the track.
On the day Of the race itself the
precautions were increased and
many persons who hoped TO snap
the greatest race in the world 5
history were disappointed when
they learned that they would have
10 leave their cameras on the out
side.
Fourteen cameras were employed
in taking the race itself. These were
placed at every point Of vantage.
One Of these swept the entire course
during the race, following the
horses and giving an unusual pan
OramiC effect. Not only the start
and the finish are shown with the
cameras close to the horses, but
their movements are analyzed by
the slow motion process through
other cameras, and the person who
sees The Race of the Ages" will
have 4 new light on the raCehOrsc.
The Race OF the Ages is prom
ised as far more than picture of
a horse race. It has been produced
with the idea of making it appeal

we'll as to the most ardent fCI'
lower; to afford a film that will
interest and instruct the woman

elusive rights, the makers Of the

Morrissey Shows
A Real Revue in
"Buzzin' Around"

The popular musical comedy fav-
orite, actor and producer, Will Nor
rissey, has added new laurels in the
production of "Buzzin' Around" his
latest miniature musical comedy
revue, taken from the Casino The
ater, New York's popular summer
success and presented as the head
line number at the Strand all this
week. 1t will be remembered that
Mr.. Morrissey is also the producer
and author of the Overseas Revue"
which also scored a big success at
the Strand recently.
In "Buzzin' Around" Mr. morris
sey is said to have given the patrons
of vaudeville something more than
a mere girl act, SO commonly seen
by audiences of this character.
Seemingly he is never at n loss in
furnishing spectacular revucs for
the variety stage and in each of
his offerings he has the faculty OF
outclasSing the preceding ones. as
is the case in "BuZzin' Around" a
scenic musical investiture of un-
surprising beauty. with a wonder
full cast Of fifteen clever artists.
Not only has Mr.. Morrissey placed
the principal roles in the hands of
a capable cast OF players, but has
surely used trained eye in select
ing an exceptionally clever and
versatile chorus. Those who have
seen it state that the act retains all
the atmosphere of a big musical
comedy production, with peppy COM
edy, good songs, dancing, side
splitting situations and pretty girls,
so cleverly conceived and arranged
that scarcely any of the good points

the question, the little blonde girl

She got the job-the part Of Van

her alternating with Ina Claire in

prominent part in De Wolfe Hop

Miss Caprice" and still another
season later the star role in Apart
ment 12-K' were evidences that
May Allisons confidence in her
making good were quite justified.
Then came the plunge into pic
lures, first with William H. Crane
in David Harum," a Famous Play

the stage again, with Edith Wynne
