unknown to America up to the time
he wrote "Scaramouche." seems to
have inherited the screen popularity
which only Il short while ago be-
l"nsed to V. Blasco Ibanez, who. in
cidentally, owes much of his camera
fame To Rex Ingram, who made him
self famous at the same time with
his photoplay, The Four Horsemcn

emphatically demonstrated than it

Apocalypse" and Immediately became
one of the most popular novelists be-
fore the American public.
1baneZ, however. has rather been
lost to sight in the phenomenal rise
to popularity of his competitor, Sa-
batini, who has disclosed technique
considered pre- -eminently adapted to
the uses of the silent drama. If In
grams production of "Scaramouche''
failed to demonstrate that fact, it
was clearly emphasized in the photo
play version of Saba tini'S "Thc Sea

Gus Shy and he supplies the principal
comedy relief in 'L.ellipep."
The Buffalo mayor was August
Scheu. But what's in name? =?
christened the same; but, while Au-
gust Scheu seemed to fit powerful
politician, Gus Shy seemed to fit
equally as we'll for low comedian.
Gus is in his early twenties. 1t is
not so long ago since he was read
ing the Greek and Latin poets in coll
lege.
When he came to New York, de-
termined to go on the stage, the Sclleu
family considered it Gus wild oats
and expected to see him back in Buff
faio, disillusioned and repentant
within three months. His father was
at that time commissioner of public
works. his brothers held city offices
and his mother led a busy social life.
Gus first Broadway visit was to
Chauncey Olcott, friend of his
family's. Olcott was discouraging.
Better go back to Buffalo, Gus
couRseled the star. kindly but firmly.
"Im going on the stage" retorted
Shy, kindly but even more firmly.
Then 60 out and get some expert
ence," advised Olcott.
He did, and then he promised his
mother TO give up the stage-for the
present. s
But again he came back to New
York and made the rounds of man
ayers offices. He got chance to
play the comedy role in Listen,
Lester" on tour, and his success
caused Elsie Janis to invite him to
join her gang" Last season he
played the leading comedy role in
Lady Butterfly" and Zelda Sears
brought him to the attention of
Henry w. Savage, and Col. Savage
put him In "Loliipop." and he has
pleased even the home folks in his
present role in Buffalo.
