NEVER before in the history Of mo-

used so much electricity for lighting
purposes as was necessary in produc-

Fairbanks production.
The amount OF electric power con-
sumed in one afternoon properly to
illuminate the banquet hall 'set" in
King Richards castle WAS sufficient to
light the city of Los Angeles for seven
hours any night. When It is taken
into consideration that all this brilliance
was needed TO photograph one scene

as it does more ground space than the
spacious concourse in the Pennsylvania

city, overtaxed the capacity OF the
largest lamps which had been used In
studios up to that time and therefore
It became necessary to build special

radiating illumination that millions OF
candlepower could be generated.

In "One Week OF Love-" in which
Conway Tearle and Elaine Hammer

in a picture that carries an irresist-
ible human appeal is inaugurated by
an aeroplane crash into a 'dobe shack
In the Mexican foothills. SO expertly
has the airplane sequence Of scenes

spin-been caught by the camera that
this succession of flying stunts might
easily be divorced from the action
which 1t follows and precedes and be
employed valuabiy as an instructive
and highly scientific commentary on
the art of flying.
The radio played its part in the
success of the, filming of this part of
the picture. since 1t was again pressed
into service as a means of directing
over great expanses of space, thus
saving a great amount Of travel and
costly loss Of time.
But the picture goes still further
in it's exemplificatlon OF how closely
linked are the most involved scientific
problems with the seemingly simple
matter Of making a photoplay to
amuse the crowds. Engineering skill
of the highest order was engaged for
seven weeks on the task of weakenin g

Anomalies in Robin Hood Cast.

nOCGLAS FAIRBANKS, the star
and producer OF Robin Hood"
this biggest of all romantic photo
plays made some wide departures
from traditions in selecting his sup
porting cast for this most ambitious
film OF his brilliant career. and, con-
sequently, there are many anomalies
in the personnel OF the delineators Of
the various roles.
Wallace Beery. creator of sneering
braggarts and vicious men In general,
has the heroic role of King Richard
Occur dc Lion. He has become the
defender of right the same right he
has been trampling on so ruthlessly
in his customary rillainous screen
characterizations. He may appear as
n clustering, swashbuckling type,
with huge and primitive appetite for
beef joints, but he is. nevertheless,
quite on the square with the heroine

Science and Amusement.

THE close community Of interest be-
l tween science and modern amuse-
ments is given scant thought by the
casual pleasure seeker, yet there IS,
nevertheless, a very close interlock-
ing Of the three most recent develop
ments in the daily life Of the average
American citizen - aeronautics mo-
ton pictures and the radio.
Motion pictures had hardly gotten
under way as an appreciable element
in Americas amusement conscious
ness when two daring young men.

amusement, however, to outstrlp the

has fostered the development ana I'm :
movement Of aeronautics and the
radio none the less.
A few years ago only the news
reels carried views OF the airplane IN
action and the radio was not consio-
cred in any respect an adjunct of pic
ture making Today. however, the
motion picture brings the wonder or
air travel to the constant attention
of those who otherwise would not
concern themselves with any aspect
of the flying game. The movies, IN
short. are the best press agent the
Marshall Neilan is among the first
to employ the airplane as a means OF

the credit for the first utilization OF
The radio as means of directing

Allan Hale is another heavy" who
has turned his back on past wicked
ness. He plays the part OF Little
John. Robin Hoods aide-de-camp in
his exploits of yaior. Like Beery, he.
too, is concerned in the redreS Ssing of
wrong rather than demoralizing
truth and justice, as he has done in SO
many films
One Of the more interesting trans
formations is that OF Enid Bennett,
heretofore associated chiefly with the
roles of the neglected wife in modern
society stories. She plays the Maid
Marian In robin Hood" and on the
silversheet she presents veritable
portrait of a glorious princess, be-
longing to an age when men were
supposed to fight for women instead
Of uuarTelling with them.
This part is quite opposite to the
types of clinging, helpless wives such
as Miss Bennett has been evolving SO
successfully, and now. in her de-
Iineation of tremendously brave
woinanhood, she seems at her hap

One Of Mr.. Waynes most valuable
aides was ParneI Eide. who invented
the larger lamp, with a 100, ,000- -kilowatt
capacity Ten of these were built in
order TO produce the required million
power.
A total of 10000 feet Of heavy copper
wire was used and as many as $50
lamps were required for light for
single scene, not including forty sun
arcs.
Besides twenty papy ares were used
for the castle interior, being in the pic
ture. To round out these lighting ia
cilities was one thirty six-inch field
piece such as was used by the United
States Army for illuminating wide
areas Of camps. In order to handle
all this electrical power 1t was neces-
sary to install six extra and special
power plants and the Los Angeles Elec-
