 This trait seems to crop out parti- cularly strong with Bainbridge when he is on the stage. He has played many roles and many different char acters and at all times he seems to actually live the part he is playing The other members of the cast de clare that during the run of Turn to the Right" when Bainbridge played Slippery Muggs" they had and all their valuables out of sight to keep their dressing rooms locked and when he played the miserly Jim Evans in Mile a Minute Kendall'' he was so mean and penurious that he almost lived in the theater and ac- tually went without meals He would fight with the management of the Elks theater every night if a mass got past the door keeper and he would carry the tickets home each night and count them over and over again.

The old stage door5eeper reminds the girl of her promise, with the remark that he is going to need her now, and grabbing a champagne bottle, breaks it, slash ing his wrist, and the loss of blood is So great that the doctor orders a transmission as the only way of sav- ing the old fellows life.

Throughout the day and evening yes terday the crowds voted it by far the most elaborately handled and the most intimately discussed picture of theatrical life yet to reach he screen.
 De Mile has thrown into the pro- duction the actual experience he has gained through his long association with both the stage and screen, an experience which has covered almost every branch of both professions Rita Weiman is conceded the most convincing of all the authors special izing in tales of back stage''-so that the combination is positively ire sistible.

their expenditure in order that their
finances might carry them through
the fiscal year, while others spent the
funds regardless of whether they
would deplete them prior to time of
