Is Gloomy
Just Now
Twenty New Plays VIII
Be Seen Soon in
New York.,
BY DIXIE HINES

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-As surel
as comes Christmas comes also the
old wheeze about the three wors
weeks Of the theatrical season, The
week before Christmas, Holy weel
and the week in Milwaukee.
Sometimes Cincinnati is selected
and again it is Louisville, dependin
entirely upon the personal viewpoint
but judging by recent statistics, New
York is not much better off.
There are approximately eighty
first class theatres in this town, witt
few others yet to be heard from
and although there are a score OF
dark theatres, mostly of the smaller
type, yet this is something new tc
us.
The Hammerstein and the Alvin
are new playhouses Of the first class
and they both are getting along fair.
ly well, but New York is runnint
true to form, and of the sixty-fivC
or seventy plays now in production
those that are successful are highly
successful, while the others have
hard time struggling along. With all
the discouragements, however, each
week shows new names amongst the
potential and probable producers.
This week, for instance, twenty
new plays are scheduled to be pro-
duced on Broadway, more plays
than most of Sthe first class cities
of the country get in a year.
Whoever it was that conceived
the idea Of dramatizing Mark
Twain's Joan of Arc" and placing
his daughter, Clara ClmentS, in
the title part, deserves medal or
some other recognition. This play
is to be presented early next month
for a limited tour, and a later en-
gagement in New York. Mark
Twain wrote many books-a recent
edition contains thirty-two vol
umes-but Joan of Arc" is per-
haps the greatest book he ever
wrote. At any rate, he seemed to
think SO.
He says in his own handwriting
in his biography that he spent
twelve years in collecting the ma
terial and two years in writing it
mo other book was so prepared"
he adds. "They did not need 1t anJ
Gid not get it."

the gateman. In fifteen minutes he

And still they say Hollywood is
heartless.
Fred Niblo told me the other day
that one Of his ambitions is 70 pro-
duce a film without a scene longer
than ten feet. Such change in
filming methods certainly would
speed up the action. But there will
have to be vast improvements in
picture technique first. Under pres
ent day production methods a film
with 10-foot scenes would be
choppy.
Gossip flew the rounds in Holly
wood a few days ago that Joan
Meredith, pretty film actress, had
eloped with Whitney Williams, Los
Angeles newspaper man. But again
the gossipers were wrong. It all
started when a party went to Fuller
ton to preview Mary Pickford's new
film, MY Best Girl" During the
course of the evening Joan and
Whitney announced that they were
going to San Diego after the show
to be married. They carried out their
act so well that two reporters in the
party drove to San Diego hoping to
surprise the couple and be on hand
for the big event.
What started out, to be a big pub
Lefty stunt ended in a near war be-
tween the Edwin Carewe and AL
Rogell companies at Inspiration
Point, Utah. Both companies
claimed the same location and their
respective press agents Matched the
thought that it would be a great
stunt to pull fake battle to see
who kept the Spot-there being only
few hundred miles of beautiful
scenery in the vicinity.
Things went along all right until
Molly O'Day planned peace con-
ference inviting the entire Carewe
company except Dolores Del Rio.
giving to the press the statement
that she had not invited Dolores
because she thought the Mexican
beauty was largely responsible for
the trouble. That was carrying
things bit too far and Dolores
husband, Jaime, demanded a public
apology from Miss O'Day.
That was where the publicity men
stepped out.

"THE MADCAP"
is BOOKED HERE

"The Madcap," which is an
nounced by English's for Jan. 10, 20
and 81, will bring Mitzi back to
Indianapolis with what this popular
musical star considers the best
part of her career.
The little Coincidence has always
been fortunate in her vehicles from
the day when she came to this
country as the child star of "Sari,"
Pom Pom" Lady Billy" THE
Magic. Ring" and Naughty Ri
quette" have all added to Mitzi's
popularity with those who love
her singing and dancing and her
inimitable sense of humor and high
spirits.
Now 'The Madcap," derived
from the brilliantly successful
Green Fruit" which had a great
European success, gives her the part
of a sophisticated young f1apper
who pretends to be 12-year-old
girl in order to aid her mother in
impressing rich sutton as not be-
ing over 20.
The role offers Mitzi every OPP
portunity to display her abilities
as singing and dancing come
dienne, and she improves them to
the full, to the satisfaction of both
the star and the audiences of 1.-THE
Madcap."
