BERLIN, June 17-Mary and Doug
reached Berlin early today and were
met by fair sized crowds of Germans
and numerous Americans. They intend
to stay only day or two, during
which they will give a reception and
then proceed to Scandinavia.
In their honor a special perform
ance of one act of Mary's new film,
Dorothy Vernon OF Haddon Hall"
will be shown. This marks great
change. Germany was the last coun-
try TO like American films which to-
day. both for quality and lower
prices. are driving out German
films.
Germans at first found American
films too quick for their eyes. They
now find their own films too slow.
Especially American comic actors
are appreciated. Charlie Chaplin
naturally is a favorite. German pro-
fessors greet Charles art as a new
esthetic revelation. Two serious essays
have been written on him and two Ger
man dramatists have taken him as
character in their recent plays.

PICK UNKNOWN
FOR ROLE OF
PETER PAN

Betty Bronson, seventeen-year-
old girl and an unknown, was an
nounced Friday as Sir James
Barrie's choice for the title role
in Peter Pan" The selection
was made in Lonodon and word
received here on Friday by cable
and later confirmed by Jesse Las.
ky.
Before Herbert Brenon left Hol-
lywood, where he had been work
ing on 1.-THE Alaskan" he and
Jesse L. Lasky had determined
on Miss Bronson for the role.
Later, Adolph Zukor saw the
tests that had been made and
came to the same decision, but
It was for Barrie to decide finally.
IT has not yet been determined
whether the picture will be made
in the East or on the coast.
Miss Bronson was born in Tren-
ton. N J.. in 1906, and went TO
Los Angeles at the age Of three,
returning to New York at the
age of eight. For five years she
studied dancing, at one time
under the tuition of Fokine. Hop.
ing that one day an opportunity
might come for work in pictures,
she worked hard to become pro.
ficient in ballet dancing. Two
years ago at the age Of fifteen
she made her first appearance
in Anna Ascends," with Alice
Brady.

COLUMBIA
Gloria Swanson.

"Manhandled. which was
adapted by Frank Tuttle from the
story by Arthur Stringer, gives
Gloria Swanson a wide range of
possibilities, and to her credit it
must be said that she makes the
most Of them. The picture is now
in its second week at Loew's
Columbia In this story, she
plays the part Of shop girl,
who starts life in a New York de-
partment store. She has youth
and beauty, is clever and attrac-
tive, and naturally there are
men who are willing enough to
help her lead the kind of life she
thinks she wants. She is caught
up in a wild whirl of gaiety, at a
breakneck pursuit of pleasure in
the most bohemian set in the
metropolis, only to realize in the
end that her free and easy con-
tact with so many men has de.
preciated her value in the eyes Of
the man who really loves her.
How she wins victory forms
mighty climax.
The picture was directed by
Allan DWan, who has surrounded
Miss Swanson with an excellent
cast. headed by Tom Moore.

comedy and special music also
help feature the program.

AT MET

Swine of YOUTH" the younger
generation film at Crandall's Met.
ropolitan this week, is the picture
version of "Mary the Third"
Rachel Crothers' play, which
Washingtonians saw here early
last season.
Metros oldwyn made a gener.
ally good picture from the stage
piece, although the morals are
driven home with the gentle sub
tlety OF a riveting machine and
the action slows up in the last
thousand feet.
The story's about a lot of
flaming youths and maidens who
are not sure whether they want
to marry each other so decide to
test their respective qualities in
ar unchaperoned but perfectly safe
camping trip. The son and
daughter of one family, which is
the important family of the pic
ture, return to find themselves
accused of trying to wreck their
own homes. But they turn the
tables on Papa and Mama with
their 1924 philosophy.
Although a large number of
Juvenile stars are featured, the
two biggest hits were made by
Eleanor Boardman and the lady
who played Eleanor's grand.

Lyon, Pauline Garon. and Willy
