UP BANK
JOB TO BE
ACTOR

The change from varsity foot.
bali manager at the University
of Wisconsin to working in
bank In New York was not to the
liking of Fredric March who plays
opposite Jeanne Eagels in "Jeal.
ousy," the all.talking Paramount
picture.
March had taken an active part,
not only in athletics but in anna
teur dramatics and oratory at the
university so he quit banking and
went with the Belasco fTheater
Stock Company where he remained
for a short time, leaving to join
the New York Theater Guild.
He was under contract with
William Brady for some time, and
SO highly did Mr., Brady think Of
his acting ability that he wanted
to sign him up for a long term
contract to remain on Broadway,
March refused this offer and
travelled West to appear in stock.
While In the East, March had
been approached several times to
appear in the movies but he
viewed them with the same dis
trust the legitimate actors have
always held for this stepchild. Not
until he was approached by Para
mount did he yield to the lure of
the recorded drama.
His initial screen appearance
was in THE Dummy" which vas
followed by part opposite clala

Jealousy" is the feature attrac-
ton at Loew's Columbia Theater

HOLIDAY

One hundred expert motion D

used in filming the lavish theatri-
cal revue sequences Of the all-talk.

Tne Dance Of Life" from the
successful stage play, "Burlesdue." ="
An average motion picture set re-
qulres ten or twelve electricians.
The lighting was In charge Of
Earl Miller. head Of ParamOunt's
electrical department. About H..
500 amperes Of electrial energy
were consumed. Four portable
generators augmented the power
available from the studio power
house.
Because Of the multiple brillianee
OF mirror reflectors behind each
light unit. 1t is declared impossible
TO estimate the candlepower which
was used on the set. An idea Of
the amount of light may be gained
from the fact that one sun arc, the
largest unit In the battery, delivers
10000 candlepoWeF. There were
80 OF these sun arc lights, together
with l42 eighteen-ineh reflectoRs,
80 twenty.fOur inch reflectors. 20
lzV'ampere spots, 80 1O0-ampere
rotaries and 124 600.watt lamps
