gers Offering ays Ankle the Ont, Stage Production the Week
Wanted---A Tennis Court

This little story is nothing more
nor less than an effort to solve q
somewhat vexed problem in eco
nomics at the Garrick Theater-a
problem that has arisen since the,
Garrick Players first began to
charm Warrington lovers of stock
with the growing list Of offerings
they have presented.
The whole trouble lies in the
fact that Malcolm Fassett, the lead
ing man of the Garrick Players,
and Everett Butterfeld, the bril-
liant character player of the Gar
rickers. are confirmed tennis fiends.
They have the tennis habit in it's
worst form but both are suffering
from the lack of tennis court ia
cilities. Both are extremely anx-
ious to hear from any charming
young woman with a tennis court
who desires a courtly pair of young
and accomplished thespians as
partners for almost any afternoon
in the week except Thursdays and
Saturdays.
Fassett feels particularly cut up
about the whole thing. Last Sat-
urday, Fasset had four different
invitations to have Sunday dinner
in the homes OF his admirers and
rather than place himself in the
position of showing preference that
was undue. he got downhearted
and went to Childs' instead. In
stead Of four invitations to dinner,
he'd be glad of a chance to play
tennis instead and incidentally.

slowed upon Allan Dwan; whose
third independent production, "A
Splendid Hazard" opens a weeks
engagement at Moore's Rialto The

The speed with which the direc-
tor handles big mob scenes and the
smoothness with which he CO.
ordinates his thoughts and actions
are responsible for his title. To
the many years spent in the open
and the training he received as a
member of the Notre Dame football
team, Dwan attributes the tremen-
dous store of vitality which enables
him to work with unusual energy.
The director began life in the

grandfather controlled extensive

Henry Arthur Jones, author OF
The Cheater," Mary Allison's new
est Metro starring vehicle, which Is
to be shown at Crandalls Metro
politan and Knickerbocker theaters
today, wrote thirty-seven success
full plays in thirty-five years. Ju-
dah." the powerful drama from his
pen from which The Cheater" was
adapted, has q recognized place in
the literature OF the English-speak-
ing stage. and on the occasion OF
it's initial presentation in London
with L. S willard heading the dis
tinguished cast, was phenomenal
triumph.
"A Clerical Error" and The Sill
yer King" produced in 1852, were
the initial works of Henry Arthur
Jones, and are still popular in this
country and England. Mr.. Jones
was 81 years old then. He is now
So. Recent plays by him produced
in this country were The Lie"
Cock O. the Walk" and, in England
three years ago. The Pacifist."
1t was in 1890 that The Cheater,"
under title of Judah" was written
and produced in London at the
Shaftesbury Theater. 1t had a long
run, and was much talked OF. In
fact, the character of the miracle
girl in the piece. portrayed on the
screen by May Allison, dominated
the performance and caused a
spirited controversy among the con-
servative British reviewers on ac-
count of it's unusual fascination.
The screen version, it may be said,
far transcends the articulate form
of the play in variety of scene. di-
versity of action, completeness of
Characterization and contrast of
crookdom with real aristocracy.
Henry Arthur Jones was born in
Granborough, England, in 1851. His
father was a farmer. The son re-
ceived his education at Winslow.
Mr.. Jones has made several trips to
the United States. In 1907 Harvard
University bestowed upon him the
title of Honorable Master of Arts
in appreciation of his works.
Mr.. Jones is best known for Mrs.
Danes Defense" The Dancing
Girl" The Case of Rebellious Su-
SAN" Michael and His Lost Angel"
The LIARS" embarrassing Julia
The Hypocrites" and The Knife.
in addition to other of his plays al
ready mentioned.
In fact. Mr.. Jones is the dean of
English dramatists. His works are
noted for their powerful dramatic
construction, deep analysis of char
acter and purity of diction.

Some thirty-nve or forty musical
comedies are annually presented IN
New York and plans for most OF
them, of course, have been made
this long time. Unlike the strictly
dramatic fare. musical comedy Is a
theatrical staple. Styles and fash
ions in this kind of entertainment
change slowly. and the producers of
IL are generally able to calculate to
a nicely just what kind of musical
comedy will meet the popular taste
and how much of IL will be re-
quired. Thus the percentage of alb
solute failures among the musical
shows is small, although, to be sure,
there are varying degrees of sue

Fairbanks Toughest Fight

A real fight in which the only
weapons used are bare knuckles,
adds to the many thrills in
cluded in The Mollycoddle," the
third United Artists Corporation
production offered by Douglas Fair
banks. which will be shown at
Loew's Palace today.
During his long career as a screen
star Douglas Fairbanks has had
many battles" of a more or less
spectacular nature. In some cases
he has had just the villain" to han
die and in others he has even gone
so far as to beat up" an entire
gang without exception all previ-
Gus fights indulged in by the ath-

1T was the toughest night have
ever had" smiled the star after the
volunteered Wallace Beery, who was
Doug's opponent and likewise the
player who shoulders the thankless
burden of villain" in the picture.
The big feature of 1t all was the
fact that no member of the company
knew that there was such a scene tn
IL was disclosed what was coming
next. In writing the story Fair
banks had planned the fight, but did
not mention ii because he was seek
ing realism.
In referring to the encounter with
Beery, the star speaks of the cpl
sode as "the two-mile battle" That
is the amount Of territory covered.
The first blow Is struck while the
two men are on the edge Of a
cliff. They clinch and a moment
later fall nifty feet into a tall tree
below.
Even now there Is no let-up and
while the two men struggle. limb
after limb OF the tree gives way
until they finally strike the ground.
There is more fighting and still more
thrills as the two reach the edge of
an overhanging rock, at last falling
headlong through thirty feet of
space and crashing through the roof
of an adobe hut
II was at this point that those who
watched the night thought the finish
had been reached. But Doug, cut
and bruised and grinning. yelled,

clashed again. For many yards the

away at each other and away they
were swept by the fast moving
stream.
Just what the turn of affairs was
is better seen than told. But when
Ii was all over both Beery and Fair
banks knew they had been fighting.
They came back to the camera stand
and between gasps agreed that
whether the camera got 1t all or not,

did get 1t all.

The most important announces
ment in filmdom last week was that
Harold Lloyd. who has leaped to the
the most original and most reliable
comedian in silent drama, has been
placed under contract by Associated
Exhibitors, Inc. This action puts a
period to the wild rumors, and
wilder scrambles, that have charS
acterized the efforts of various pro-
ducing companies to secure the ex-
elusive services of this BRILLIANT
young author-actor. The acquisi-
ton of Mr.. Lloyd to the growing hst
of eminent stars under contract to
Associated Exhibitors is of particu-
lar local interest.
The signing of Mr.. Lloyd by As
