ALI Ballets i'm the
World Contribute
To "Better Times

| There is scarcely ballet or opera
organization Of note in either Europe
or America upon which r. H. Burnside,
general director Of the Hippodrome,
has not drawn for the 800 members of
the ballet in "Better Times" There Is
scarcely a teacher in America or in
Europe who. does not number among
his pupils Hippodrome dancer.
To the layman it might seem that
the Hippodrome, because of the great
size Of it's ballet, might exact a lower
standard of ability for the ensemble
members than the smaller ballets. OF
course the opposite is true. Because
he uses many people the director must
maintain a higher standard than the
producer OF the smaller ballet. Indif-
ferent dancers in large ballet would
result in one impression only--that Of
magnitude. The presence Of 800
dancers on the stage means that
greater effort must be made to pre-
serve the suggestions Of grace and of
beauty of movement which are the
chief requisites of the ballet.
The Hippodrome dancers were select
ed in q series Of elimination trials.
From some $500 applicants for posi-
tions 1900 girls were called FOR trials.
This statement explains what Mr.
burnside did with the last two weeks
| Of July and the first week in August.
livery day for three weeks he sat in an
orchestra seat in the Hippodrome, and
each girl who was called for try-out
danced before him while he held in his
hand card upon which she had writ
ten her dancing history. Then the girls
tentatively selected were asked to
oance with other girls in groups of
twenty-four and forty -eight in dances
that all knew, and, after successive
TRIALS, the number was reduced to 800.
1ifis VINO had been in the Hippodrome
before went through the same trials as
the newcomers, with the exception Of
seme twenty-five principals and the
premiere dancer, Miss Elna Hansen.
When he had finished Mr.. Burnside
had girls from the Royal Opera, Copen-
hhseh; from the Royal Opera, Covent
Garden; from the Pavlowa and Fokine
baiiets from the opera company in
Mexico City, from the La Scala Opera
IN Milan, from the Bolm ballet, from
the South American opera companies,
from the Marrell Opera Company in
vienna, from the Gertrude Hoffman
and isadora Duncan companies and
girls who had been premieres for twen-
| ty-hve weeks or more in Broadway mo-
tien picture theaters. Naturally there
were more Fokine girls than any other
siEgie organization because Fokine
/ staged ballet at the Hippodrome last
season, but there were thirty Of Paw

from thirty-seven other organizations,

Shakespeare Prepared

Clarence Derwent, who has one of
the leading roles in "The Last Warn

that was particularly to be congrat-
ulated for the opportunity / had to

me to study protracted character de-
velopment."
Mr.. Derwent's experience has includ
ed five years in Shakespearean roper
tory with f. r. Benson, starring tour
as Shylock in Belgium and Holland
and later in London and New York.
In the latter city Mrs. Richard Mans
field was Portia. Mr.. Derwent, who
has played 3s4 parts, including the
star role in his own production of
"Buddha," based on Sir Edwin ArnoId's
"The Light of ASIA" said:

''The Foor' Camped ON Pollock's
Mental Doorstep for 10 Years

One of the most interesting hits Of
psychology in the theater is that be-
hind the assertion that it took Chan
ming Pollock ten years to write "The
FOOL" In very plain English this play
is IN existence because Mr.. Pollock
couldn't help it.
You know play begins with an
ldea," says Mr.. Pollock. "Well. the
idea for The Fool' came to me ten
years ago. 1t seemed SO daring an un-

Does Douglas Fairbanks in Robin

Just as "Cabiria," "The Birth of Ma
tion" and, more recently, Passion"
marked milestones in the history of the
cinema, Dwan believes douglas Fair
banks in Robin Hood" will make screen
history
"Not because of the fortune spent in
It's making, not because of its size, not
because of it's exciting adventure and
it's beauty" says Mr.. Dwan, "but be-
cause it attains something new in pic
tures--feeling, Motion pictures have
largely failed in attempting stories of
other ages because they did not make
their characters live. Directors went
to great pains to get data and details.
The results showed it, Scenes were
cluttered up with non-essentials
thought necessary to attain historic ac-
curacy. AS result the action was
gummed, and the characters became
upholstered people who never once
lived and breathed.
"When Douglas Fairbanks decided to
make his story of Robin Hood he
looked over volume of Gordon Craig's
stage designs. 4 want to get those
long lines, he said; want to get the
feeling of the twelfth century, the feel
ing of it's great stone bleakness and
romance The twelfth century was the
era of Robin Hood, of Richard the
Lion Hearted, of the tournaments and
OF crusades. 1t, was a grim, stark age,
despite all its color and chivalry. For
it was the crusades that brought the
West into contact with the culture of
the East, that broke the shackles of
mental lassitude and stimulated, quick
ened and liberated life and culture into
what became the Renaissance.
ESQ Robin Hood was filmed on a
massive scale with Fairbanks as its
guiding spirit. Much credit must ro.
too, to Irwin Martin, who designed the
sets after the spirit of Craig.
Fairbanks tossed his fortune into
the making of Robin Hood The sets
are the biggest ever constructed for
motion pictures. Interiors run 1000
feet in two directions; castle exteriors
are l25 feet in height, built Of struc-
tural steel and concrete.
Il think Robin Hood will set a new
mark in motion pictures, just as | be-
lieve that Fairbanks is the greatest
prophet in flmdom. An analysis Of his
career proves this. In the face of the
greatest depression in generation he
made The Three Musketeers, and
scored. Again, when all other motion
picture interests were retrenching. he
again threw his fortune into the scales
and made Robin Hood He believes
that the motion picture must be led out
