Adaptations Not Popular.

STRAWS are said to show which
way the wind blows. Allan
Dwan does not think much of adapta-
tions, whether of novels or plays. In
fact, he calls them parasites" and
prophesies their ignominious Danish
ment just as soon as authors devote
themselves seriously to writing direct
for the screen. Allan Dwan is a Par
amount director.
When writer's who have studied
the needs and technique OF motion
pictures" says Mr.. Dwan. ARE turn
ing in original stories suitable for
filming, 1t will mark the end Of the
parasitical existence of the adapted
play or published story. Unfortu-
nately, up to a short time ago we
were forced to depend almost entirely
on these adaptations, simply because
very few writers were either well
enough versed in the needs of the
screen or had a sufficient understand
ing of the boundaries within which
screen stories must be kept.
The effort required to transfer the
average play or novel into screen Ian
guage is sufficient to construct two
originals of more real merit than the
one being adapted. In addition, any
thing as delicate as a really good
story always suffers when it passes
through too many hands. The adapt
ors may be extremely clever people,
Evening star., 1925-04-05
Another Kind of Thrill.
"EoLKs of the theater live on a,

"EOLKS of the theater live on ap-
plause," says Margaret Dale,
who plays Mrs. Bronson Lenox in
The Best People" There is al
ways thrill for the player in a rous-
ing round of hand -clapping from a
packed house
The greatest sensation of the kind
that l have ever experienced was an
outburst of cheering that wasn't
meant for me at all. 1t was at the
banquet rendered to that much be-
loved grand old man of the stage,
William II. Crane, given at the Wal
dorf-Astoria in New York few
months ago in commemoration of his
fftieth anniversary on the stage.
Il had been in his company for
several years just prior to his virtual
retirement. and Mrs. Crane, who liked
me. had invited me and my mother to
be her guests in the private box she
was to occupy that evening.
This will be the greatest event in
Wits career she said, and | want
only friends to be with me-
when we arrived all the men were
seated at the tables below. AS Mrs.
Crane entered the box and came into
view of the dinner guests they arose
as one man and such a cheering /
have never heard and such a waving
of serviettes l have never seen.
1T was the big thrill of my life
and I shall never forget it,
Evening star., 1925-04-05

but they naturally view a story from
a different angle than it appeared In
the authors mind when he wrote II.
The main point, however, is that
plays and novels are built to meet the
requirements of modes OF expression
which are far different from that of
the screen. There is a very different
technical structure to be followed In
playwriting from that followed in
writing novel, and the screen doesn't
conform to either of them. When you
take authors in terms of basic story
tellers you'll find that all they have
TO relate are the experiences and OBJ
servations of everyday life within the
scope of the average man. Their
main stock in trade is style, and no
matter how interesting and absorbing
1t may make their novels, style can't t
be photographed. The average play
depends for its entertainment appeal
on its dialogue, and dialogue can't
be reduced to action on the screen.
Unless the adaptation is particu-
larly good-which means that prac-
tically new story must be written
around the fundamental thought
filming a play means filming scenes
crammed with subtitles. Often this
must be carried to a point where the
action becomes merely an illustration
of the words spoken by the actors"

Babv Actors in Play.

ALTHOUGH Myron Fagan's new
melo-comedy of American mar
ried life, 'Mismates," at the Belasco
last week, did not win the highest
approval of the critics, there was
hardly a single member Of any au-
dience which saw the production that
was not won by the two baby
actors in the play, little Edwin Mills
and his 10-month-old baby sister
Evelyn. Evelyn was supposed to be
Edwin at an early stage in his
career, then, as movie titles would
say, time passed." and little Edwin
became himself in the play.
Evelyn Eaton Mills. mother of these
two stage kiddies, is the oldest of
the quartet of sisters for whom Wash
ington has claimed credit Mary
Eaton, co-Star with Eddie Cantor in
kid Boots" and Dorothy Eaton, star
of "Lollipops," are famous aunts to
Edwin and Evelyn. Mrs. Mills herself
was Cd the stage before her marriage.
and so was her husband, Robert f.
Mills. who, however, is now in a
more proSaic profession in New York.
Little Edwin will be remembered
as the real star of 'Zander the
Great" featuring Alice Brady here
awo wears ago. Edwin was then 5
end possessed much poise and the
Unborn "knack" of the actor. He was
with Doris Keane In 'Starlight,' her
new play, but left that to take the
role in "Mismates" Mrs. Mills plays
n maid role in "Mismates." The only
member Of the family" on tour not
in the production is Koko, a choco-
late-colored pomeranian.
Baby Evelyn Is the first member OF
the cast seen by the audience. She
is sitting cooling in her high chair
at the rise of tho curtain. (Only some
times she is crying instead of COO
ing). She has a wonderful smile
however that seems to be her DOM
inant expression She may be a
Bernhardt some day; she is certainly
a tiny Polyanna at present.

Poll s." Baby Blue.

The new musical comedy, Baby
Blue" Will be the attraction at Polls
Theater next week, opening Easter
sunday night. April II.
The play is produced by Mulligan
and TrebitsCh, producers of Night
Hawk," now current at the Bijou
Theater. New York City. The book
was written by Roland oliver and
Charles Dickson, and the lyrics and
music by Hal Christy. The play was
staged by Arthur Hurley and the
dances and ensembles by Jack Con-
norS.
The play is peppered throughout
with snappy dance numbers, tuneful
melodies and dancing specialties
IT also holds the thread of an anus
ing story, which has to do with the
fast set" of the modern day. Many
complications arise during the play.
The company includes Irene Dunno,
Ray Raymond, Arthur Aylesworth
Helen La Nonne, Rose kessner, James
+. sullivan, Walter Lawrence, Paul
Porter, Esther Muir, Helen Wehrle,
and a youthful chorus.

ties finally cast discretion to the
winds.

ing Berlin, whose music Miss Moore

local choir her only asset in addition
