CHE was always a precocious infant
was Lena Haley way back in her
home town Of Baraboo, Wis, when she
was just a kiddie in pigtails and pima
fores.
If you recall Baraboo, until a few
years ago, was the Winter quarters
of the big Ringing Brothers Circus.
And thereby hangs a tale.
The ballet master of the circus was
rehearsing one of the balletS for which
the Ringling Brothers entertainment
was famous. Miss Daley, then a mere
kid, and some of her playmates had
been watching rehearsals. One day the
ballet master trying in vain TO teach
his dancers q particularly intricate
step, became impatient and turning to
the juvenile Miss Daley, cried: ''Why
I'll wager that little kid can do this
step"
Lena all enthused assured him she
could and forthwith proceeded to
make good.
The ballet master was surprised, of
course, and when the circus went on
tour that season, Lena, through spe-
cial dispensation of her parents, was
one of it's members.
That was the beginning of her stage
career.
Harry Pollard, who was suddenly
taken i'll with an infection of the jaw
while directing the ice scenes for

fears were entertained, is now out OF

The Moving Picture
By Robert E. Sherwood

THERE have lately been heard
along Broadway in New York
ugly murmurs Of dissatisfaction from
various playwrights over the invasion

Gently reached a elimination. taking
the form of an agreement between the
Producing Managers Association and
the Dramatists Guild, which is calcu.
lated to protect the latter's interests.
The trouble seems to be about as
follows:
When a dramatist writes play, and
sells it ION a royalty basisl, TO a man
ager for production. he retains 80 per
cent Of the movie rights. The remain
ing so per cent goes TO the manager.
This is fair arrangement, in view of
the fact that it is the manager S
money which is at stake in the produc-
ton of the play; he is the one who
finances it and brings it before the
public. He is therefore entitled to his
share of the gravy.
However. during the past season,
various movie maSnates have been

Morgan Dancers Filmed.

MARION MORGAN, creator of the
- Morgan Dancers, is another head
liner of the legitimate stage who has
been lured to try her art on the
screen.
Her contention is that the screen
offers greater possibilities and much
wider field for her creative ability.
The Morgan Dancers have won in
ternational recognition. There is
distinctive touch about their presenta-
tions that puts them In q class of
their own. 1T is an artistic combina-
tion of classic dancing and what Miss
Morgan terms rhythmic pantomime.
Several years ago when Marion Nor
gan first conceived the possibilities of
this combination she searched the
world over for n really great instruc-
tor of pantomime, but failed TO find
master of the art. Refusing TO be
thwarted in her purpose. Miss Nor
gan has devoted every spare moment
to the working ont in detail and train
