NEW M'LEAN COMEDY
Due AT THE APOLLO

something new under the sun
is promised at the Apollo next week
in Douglas MacLea11's new comedy,
soft Cushions" comedy screened
by Eddie Cline, long associated with
the Mack Sennett forces, from a
story by the late George Randolph
Chester, creator Of Get Rich Quick
Wallingford."
Abandoning the formula developed
by several screen generations OF
comedians, MacLean successfully pl-
oneers in brand-new field. Against
the pictorially beautiful background
of the Orient, Smiling Doug" has
the role of a romantic young thief.
Instead Of lodging trouble as he has
in many of his previous pictures, in
soft Cushions" he deliberately goes
a'hunting it, winning fame, fortune
and the lovely heroine by flirting
with death.
Another innovation is the COM
bination Of lavish far eastern set
tings and costumes with typical wise
cracking, American titles. The pic
ture avoids the confusion Of charac-
tiers that has marred previous at
tempts to win laughs in oriental cos
tuning, and Director Cline, who
piloted MacLean in LET 1t Rain
has maintained the fast tempo de-
naanded of present day comedy.
MacLean's support is headed by
Sue Carol, newcomer in the ranks
of leading ladies who Is highly tout
ed for her beauty and personal mag
netism; Rich earle, j. Russell
Powell, Wade Boteler, Frank Leigh
Nigel deBrulier and others. Addi-
tional program features will be a
comedy, the Fox News weekly, Emil
Seidel and his Apollo Merry Makers
presenting diversified musical enter
tainment; Jimmy Mulvaney, vocal
soloist, and Earl Gordon, organist.

y REAT interest was aroused in
~ England, and almost equally In
this country, by the testimony in the
libel suit brought by Capt. Peter
Wright against Viscount Gladstone.
The case really amounted to an effort
by the viscount to clear the reputa-
ton of his father, William Il. Glad
stone, from the charges of loose liv-
ing, made by Wright In one of his
books, against the great commoner.
Lord Gladstone has denounced the au-
thor as foul-minded liar and cow
ard, and forced his expulsion from a
club. Wright testified that various
persons had told him of intimacy be-
tween Gladstone and Lille Langtry,
Olga Novikoff Of Russia and other
women. He asserted he still believed
what he had written but was now
sorry he had put the stories In print.
Lille Langtry, now Lady de Battle,
wired denial from Monte Carlo, and
It. p. O'Connor and Lord Malmesbury
contradicted Wright's testimony. 1t did
not appear that the author had much
to substantiate his charges against
thes dead prime minister, and the jury
returned verdict for yiscount Glad
stone.
