Hazardous feats OF mountain
climbing which audiences will see
John Barrymore perform in his new
United Artists picture. Eternal
Love-" coming TO the Queen the

Of the famous stars life.
Many Of the scenes IN the Ernst

the high Canadian Rockies. near
Banff. and when Barrymore and
members OF the company recently
returned to Hollywood to resume
work. after spending a month on
location. IL was revealed that he
sorained both ankles and suffered
ether injuries while acting before
the cameras. Scoring the sugges-
ton that he use a double for the
dangerous sequences. Barrymore
amazed ever the professional Swiss
guides by his daring. until they
learned that he is one OF the few
Americans who holds a certificate
from the Swiss government for
climbing Mount Blanc.
Barrymore made the ascent TO
the summit of the world-famous
Swiss mountain in 1921, when he
was v~acationing abroad.
The story Of how he happened
to scale the peak is characteristic
cally Barrymore. 1t Is related that
he developed an acute case OF n
nui while sitting around a Swiss
Inn. Someone mentioned the perlls
az Mount Blanc and the thrills q
the climb-if the climbers lived 10
remember them.
The next day Barrymore was on
his way no the mountain as a re-
lief from boredom. The ascent YVES
made without mishap. and the Of
tici7l testimonial of his climb and
~ho.ograDhs made Of him where a
slip Of foot or hand would have
meant his doom. are among his
most treasured possessions.
IN his new United Artists tim
special. adapted by Hans Karly
from Jacob ChristoDh Hers ro-
nance Of the Alps. Barrymore plays
the part az a daredevil noun
taineer. He is surrounded by a
notable cast. including Camilla
Horn. who also was his leading
lady IN "Tempest'; Mona Rico. dis

ranks and selected for the second
feminine lead over the heads Of
