no active part in State politics.
In the event that Senator Grow re-

first, that the Magee organization would

gest successes on Broadway--when Will

is shown at the Rivoli Theater this
week. This is regarded generally as
Broadhurst's greatest play. DeMilie. 1t
is said, adhered closely to the stage
play in making this special Paramount
production.
TN making this picture I followed my
usual method" said Mr.. DeMille. "of
not taking any play to which I cannot
adhere closely. I merely made such
changes as were absolutely necessary
in order to get the story over on the
screen.
1t is interesting to note that Messrs.
Broadhurst and DeMille wrote side by
side In the old days in New York. and
one year they had two famous plays
running In adjoining theaters on Broad
way in Bought and Paid For" and "The
Woman" To-day DeMille adapts to the
film a play which was his strongest
competitor in days gone by--a situation
