Dropping several hundred feet
from an inferno of fire into the
rocky bed of a river is one OF
the hazardous feats accomplished
by owen Moore and Constance
Bennett during the filming OF
the Zane Grey-Paramount produc-
ton, code of the West, which
opens weeks engagement at
Loew's Columbia tomorrow after
noon.
'The scene required more
nerve that anything / have ever
seen," declared Director William
K. Howard. after it was over.
"Yet neither Mr.. Moore nor Miss
Bennett would agree to use
double. They displayed what
believe is one of the greatest bits
of courage ever brought out in
them for it tremendously.
In the photoplay both Moore
and Miss Bennett are hemmed in
on all sides by forest fire and
their only hope of escape is to
lump into the river far below.
They make the leap and land in
the stream where they are imme-
diately rescued by party wait
ing on the bank.
This scene comes as flttIng
and tremendous climax to a serles
of tense dramatic events which
have their beginning when Miss
Bennett, who impersonates a
vivacious flapper from the East
goes West for her health, vamps

and then deliberately turns him
down whln he proposes.

Barbara La Marr, whose per-

to the costume designer, wears
eighteen new gowns Of the very

ment, ; for Margaret AngIin,
Ethel Barrymore, Mrs. Fiske,
Leslie Carter, Elsie Ferguson,
Frances Starr, Laurette Taylor
and others whom we have come
to regard as authentic labels on
our entertainment.
Why?
/ pause, with ear to the burn
ing pave, for such replies as
may begin rumbling.
Hollywood is agitated and the
rest of the world shows a paci-
fic interest in the whereabouts
of Charles Chaplin, his wife,
Lita Grey and, the rumored ad-
dition to the family. -
It is generally believed there
has been an addition to the
Chaplin family. and that Charlie
and the gi~l-wife have stolen
away to a secluded spot to avoid
publicity.
Not even the rumor that his
dearest friend, Mary Pickfotd,
was on the, verge of being
snatched from her cradle by
some bold, bad kidnapers,
served to lure Chaplin from his
hiding place in the foothills.
Chaplin has been greatly con-
cerned over the Tacna-Arica
affair, it is said, and this, to
say nothing of the Riffian up
rising, may have determined
him to get away from it all.
He has always been anti-Riffi0n
in sentiment, though voting a
straight Republican ticket at
such. times as made no differ
ence who won.
Among the Mayflower lobby
guests, non-paying, rumors were
to say the least, ripe this
week that Chaplin, was the first
marked man on the kidnapers'
mailing list and that his disap-
pearance indicates they nego-
tiated the first stage Of their
downright nefarious scheme.

Mr.. Barrymore has had a
disastrous season. And though
both the tenor and the tenure
of his three new plays quite
unanimously fell short, his in
dividual performances were gen.
orally acclaimed.
The theater needs new writing
blood, if it ever did, or dozens
of our established actors will,
migrate between the movies and
a quiet life of retirement. The
current crop of writing men
seems not concerned at all with
the meter nor repute of indi-
viduals, but only with the en-
semble effect at the box office.
Such of our first-rate stars
who have not sought refuge in
revivals, have faced rather mis-
erably in their desperation to
grab anything.
In the last year and a half
there has been but one play
conceived expressly for the
talents of Lionel Barrymore.
This play, written by two new
comers, is "What Price Glory"
and only the chance meeting by
one of the authors with Arthur
Hopkins; the producer, veered
those authors from their origi-

as Captain Flage; a role in
which he would have, to my
mind, far surpassed the eIe-
