AMBITION makes the world go
"A round, and the desire to do
something different is said TO be the
most persistent ambition of all.
Movie personalities are no eXcep-
tion. The comedy stars want to do
tragedy. The comedy directors are
filled with ambition to make melo-
drama.
Director John Francis Dillon's
biggest successes have been pictures
"f high powered society life. His
latest. Too Much Money is one Of
those smart" pictures. But does
Dillon enjoy the serious parts? He
does not--as compared to the parts
that are liShtened with comedy. He
is in his glory when directing
comedy
Dorothy Mackail. whose biggest
successes have been in Mighty LAX
q Rose" and "Chickie." would give a
good deal to play honest to goodness
comedy. Few actresses can make the
tears flow more freely than Dorothy,
but despite this she wants comedy.
Ben Lyon. whose meteoric rise TO
one of tilrdom's most popular lead
ing men was due To the serious roles,
declares that comedy is his ambition
also. Mae Allison, who reached the
pinnacle of screen fame as a come
uienne, quit the screen for two years
in order to come back in serious roles.
She is now playing dramatic part
in "Men of Steel
Director Lambert Hillyer rose to
directing heights while handling the

Royal Drum Roll
Custom Revived
By Hindenburg
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN, March 20.-The CEN
tury-old custom whereby the drum
major of the palace guards her
aided the exit or entrance OIL q
member Of the royal family by
beating a roll on his drum, has
been revived by President Won HIM
denburg. 1t was abolished seven
years ago, at the time or the
revolution. Besides the President,
foreign ambassadors and other
notables will be so honored by the
guards at the presidential resi-
dence.
The task Of the drum majors or
the watch Is a hard one. 1t was
comparatively easy to recognize
the approach of the former Kaiser
or d member of his family. but now
the drum majors have to be able
to identify more than a score or
diplomats, most of whom wear
nothing more conspicuous than
formal dress when calling on the

VICTORIA ONCE TALKED
ON PHONE, DIARY SHOWS
King George, However, Not So Oar
ing as Grandmother, Who Was
Noted Conservative.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON. March 20.-Although
King George does not talk over the
telephone. and it would be a grave
social error to attempt to speak with
tho monarch over the wire. it has been
revealed that Queen Victoria was
::luch interested in the telephone.
The recently published letters OF
chat conservative old lady, supposed
ny the younger generation to have
been the greatest stickler for the
established order in British history,
shows this.
On January "A. 1878, at Osborne, she
wrote in her diary:
After dinner we went into the coun-
ell room and saw the telephones. DIR.
Bell alexander Graham BelD, the in
ventor. explained the whole process,
which is most extraordinary. 1t had
been put in communication with Os-
borno cottage. and we talked with Sir
Thomas and Mary Biddulph; also

Novel Choral Group, Kurt
SCHNEIDER. Director

KURT SCHNEIDER, for many years
~ associated with choral activities
in New York City, has been engaged
by S. l.. Rothafel. Roxy" to direct
the permanent chorus OF 100 trained
voices which will be an outstanding
feature of the new Roxy Theater now
In progress of construction at Fiftieth
street and Seventh avenue.
Mr.. SCHNEIDER is keenly enthusias-
tic about what he calls unique oppor-
tunity In the history of American
music to create "a wide appreciation
for the finest choral productions and
the best in folk lore, bringing com
positions little heard but deeply loved
in new way to the people. AS he
puts 1t, "for the first time large
permanent chorus drilling and per-
forming every day is thus made acces-
sible to the public at large"
Mr.. SCHNEIDER says, season after
season. l have given a few perform
ances Of my Schola Cantorum In Car
negie Hall, always thinking how ]
might bring this music before wider
audiences. l feel that I have some
thing genuine to offer. to the people
and I promise I shall use my new
position as one of public trust. know
ing the deep love Of music inherent
in the American people and realizing
that nothing Is too good for the thou
sands who will attend these per-
formanceS.
"My conversations with Mr.. Rotha'
fel, whom l met recently for the first
time, have revealed to me man of
highly spirited temperament and rare
idealistic vision. He brings a wonder
full gift to the people OF New York.
The plans OF the new Roxy Theater
are on an incredibly sumptuous scale
including for my particular branch OF
endeavor perfect rehearsal rooms.
ideal conditions to foster oil that is
finest and noblest In music and per-
feet equipment for the individual COM
fort of the artist.
This chorus will function some
times alone, sometimes with the or
chestra, SO that many works both of
oratorio and opera will be available.
One of the unusual features and a
wish + have always hoped to see
realized will be the performance of
choral music with dancing, thus
opening an entirely new repertoire OF
music. In this way we shall be able
to present, for example. the folk dances
and songs of Spain, Russia and the
Balkans in their original form. and
