PALACE TO FEATURE
 THE MASQUERADER'
Guy Bates Post Makes Screen
 Bow Sunday

It has been several years since any really distinguished actor of the stage has made his screen debut, and Guy Bates Posts leadership among con- temporaneous' players makes his film inauguration all the more noteworthy at this time. He has been appearing on the speaking stage in "'The Mas querader" for over six years. His first film, "The Masquerader," Rich ard Walton Fully production for First National will be seen at the Palace theater starting Sunday night.
 Although he has been acknow- edged heretofore as the greatest TO- mantle actor of the day on the Amer ican stage, critics and public alike have naturally been tempted to with hold judgment on him as possible film star until they had witnessed his debut on the silver sheet. This has now become a matter of history. He begins with an inimitable characteri- zation of a distinguished statesman super-elegant to the point of foppish- ness, distant to the point of snob- bishness, and all contained to the point of vanity. Then, we see this carefully etched picture blurred by excessive indulgence. Chilcote sinks until he succumbs. With his down. fall is the rise of another character portrayed by Post-John Loder a brilliant but unrecognized political writer, struggling with poverty, in humble surroundings. Plunged by a drug fiend's madness into the midst of the political arena, he finds him. self in the other mans home.
 The companion feature for Sunday night only is Bert Lytell in "Sher- lock Brown" and the Keith vaude- vile bill for Monday Tuesday and Wednesday will be headed by The Oxford Four, who present an excel lent musical offering.
 Starting next week Thursday Pink | Gods will be offered with an all-star cast including Bebe Daniels, James and Anna Q. Nilsson.

FAMOUS PLAYERS co. DROPS MARY WINTER
Wanda HaWley Out Too--Former
 in Taylor Murder Mystery

number of important figures will be missing with the new year from the motion picture lineup of the Fa- nous Players Lasky corporation. it was announced at the New Yorl, headquarters yesterday. Of these the most prominent is Mary Miles Minter, who has been rising with the development of the industry from early days as child star. With her passing from the Paramount fold oc- CUTS the last echo, so far as this or- ganization is concerned, of the shoot ing of William Desmond Taylor, one of their directors.
 Contract Was $25O,OOO.
 Following this case. in which Miss Winters name and letters were men, tioned conspicuously. the public re- ception of her pictures was watched closely. South of Suva," her first picture distributed after the murder. did not indicate any great amount of popular favor. and following the re- lease of 'The Cowboy and the Lady" Adolph Zukor, president of Famous Players, did not feel justified in re- newing Miss Winters contract, which was said to be bringing her $250,oo0 year.
 She is now working on her last pie sion of ''The Trail of the Lonesome Pine,' which will probably be finish ed this month. Her plans after that are uncertain.
 Her departure from Famous Play ers-Lasky means the end of an elab- crate campaign on their part to de- velop an actress who would take the place in their galaxy of stars left by Mary Pickford. She was known in the industry as "a synthetic star'
 Wanda Hawley Also.
 Wanda Hawley likewise ends her association with Famous Players-Las- ky this year Miss Hawley appear ed last opposite Rodolph Valentino in 'The Young Rajah'' and before that appeared in Burning Sands" Alice Brady and May McAvoy are the only players now left from the group of Realart stars affiliated with Famous Players.
 Penrhyn Stanlaws, artist and illus trStor, who was developed by Famous Players into director also sewers his connection with them, his contract expiring about this time.
 Stanlaws over two years ago gave up art for the movies and after a year spent in studying motion pie lures intensively at the Lasky studio in Hollywood he produced "The Lit tie Minister 'At the End of the World" ]" Pink Gods' and other films notable for feeling for beauty. He is expected to start production for himself.
 Hart May Go Too.
 It was also reported on good au- thority that William S. Hart would end his utilization of six years with the organization. Hart slipped quiet Iy into New York week ago and has been staying at the Waldorf Astoria. He has been avoiding interviews, but It is known that he is waiting here for the return of Zukor from the Pa cific coast, when Hart intends to take up a renewal of his contract with the film chief.
 . Arbuckle's Successor
 To counterbalance this shifting of stars who have grown up with the films, Famous Players-Lasky now aims to star Walter Hicrs, come 1ian who is intended to take the place of Fatty Arbuckle.
