THE dictionary defines revival as
n "a returning to conscious life after
Inconsistencies: also the act of bring
ing back to life"
In the theater perhaps more than in
any other profession or business this
habit of bringing back to life" plays
of other days persists in the face of
frequent discouragements and more
frequent failure of the plays thus re-
suscitated.
George Tyler has made great sue
cess with revivals during the past few
years-"Trelawney of the Wells" "Di-
plomacy" and more recently Macbeth"
being notable examples. There Is some
thing glamorous about these gallant old
plays, something very fine. especially
interesting to the older generation,
which loves these revivals for the sake
of the memories that come trooping
along in their train.
Although we never quite think of
them In the nature of revivals, every
Shakespearean performance is just that.
Shakespeare crossed the river from Lon
don to present his plays. and so did

handled urgently and unkindly. They
must be played in the true spirit in
which they were written, acted in the
stilted manner Of the year of their
premier and directed with keen under
standing of their real values.
1t was with this threefold under
standing. vision and subtlety that After
Dark; or Neither Maid, Wife Nor
Widow" was unearthed by Morley from
the CRIME of the Public Library and
brought forth to the light of day and
the applause of success at the old Rialto
in Hoboken. This Is not the first re-
vival of this delicious. perfectly written
old melodrama by Dion Boucicault. 1t
was first produced In New York in 1868
and was revived in 1869, 1874, 1889,
1890, 1891 and 1896.
William A. Brady, the eminent pro-
Queer, gave it rousing production and
invested Old Tom, the leading sympa-
thetic character, with a fine perform
ance as late as 1894.
The resuscitation of this play in Ho-
boken December 10 evoked long APP
plause and loud cheers. Suddenly the
Morley organization found itself with
success on its hands~-success attained
in the eighteenth week Of its occupancy
of the old Rialto.
Encouraged by the success OF this
pelodramatic revival, the four adven-
turers Gas they are called along New
York's Rialto-Broadway) decided that
their next production would be another
revival quite spicy, naughty one this
time, that had caused the good ladies of
1866 to blush and hide their faces behind
their fans.

Legal Procedure.

"YoU'RE honor, I object!"
The fiery prosecutor is on his feet,
swapping his protestations. The defense
wishes to call surprise witness who
has just come forward after the closing
arguments have been made.
Can the witness be called?
That. is just one of the many ticklish
legal questions that Monta Bell had to
answer when he was filming THE
Eellamy Trial" Metro-G oldwyn-
Mayer feature production.
To obtain a reply to the question of
the witness eligibility to testify after
the taking of evidence mas ended Bell
sought the advice of prominent Los
Angeles criminal attorney, who ex-
pressed the opinion that the witness
might be called at the judges discre-
ton
The attorney declared that very few
such a situation arose, but stated that
the courts discretionary powers are OF
sufficient latitude to permit him to over
rule the prosecutors objection.
In the filming of this magazine Sc
rial by Frances Noyes Hart Bell has
taken pains to preserve the atmosphere
of realism and the entire courtroom
action was filmed under the observa-
ton of lawyers, law professors and
judges

Too Much Sun.

THERE are intervals during the day
when it is impossible to use a
camera in the desert
This curious fact came to light dur
ing the recent location trip to the great
American desert made by the company
producing the Warner Bros. operetta,
The Desert Song" 1t was found that
in the middle Of the day, with the sun
straight overhead, no work could be
done, as the desert could not then be
photographed to advantage. The sun S
direct rays entirely eliminated shadows,
and the desert photographed merely as
a wide expanse of fiat sand
Before 1890 in the morning and
after 2:30 in the afternoon the suns
slanting rays threw the rolling sand
dunes into bold relief; then the desert
could be photographed in all its beauty
And so, although the location was es-
tablished more than 20 miles from
Yuma, Ariz., there was no necessity for
the box lunches customarily used on
motion picture location trips. The en-
tire company, with four hours for lunch
were transported by automobiles into
Yuma for the midday meal

A Foot Reader.

"SHoEs," says Jack Hunt. burlesque
comedian of 'Kewpie Dolls at the
Strand Theater. ARE a fine indication
Of character to me.
Some folk read faces. others palms,
and some claim to read minds, but get
my impression from the feet.
For instance, sharply pointed pair
of shoes means to me that the wearer
is fast-moving, quick thinking indi-
vidual-a hard man with whom to drive
bargain.
Broad, nat shoes give me the i'm
preston Of the phlegmatic type-the
slow mover and thinker, usually a con-
scientious person.
Shoes run down at the heel denote
a slovenly character. while those which
tend to wear down in a slanting direc-
ton, from the outside, denote listless,
ambitionless chap.
"Cloth-top shoes impress me with the
thought that the wearer is an ex-
tremist.
Il could go forever explaining what
the various shoes mean to me. may

equine in question, had registered in

would do when 1t came time to film the
exterior scenes. It was rush job and
the location was 80 miles by road and
80 miles by air. Joe was taken to the
Glendale flying field by truck, then
strapped to a plane and lifted over the

On the Sinaloa front, General Ca

eral troops stationed in fortified po-
sitions at MaZatlan, awaiting the
large rebel column under General
Iturbe nearing the seaport.
Rebels were in control Of Gull
acan, capital of Sinaloa, and de-
tachments of their troops marched
through that city on their way
south for the expected battle at

ed by the retreating government
forces were rapidly being repaired,

Government Set Up
The rebel general announced he
had established military headquar-
tiers in Culiacan and that Celso
Gaxiola, attorney, had been named
provisional governor of Sinaloa.
General Iturbe said he was well
supplied with cash and that the
move on Mazatlan was part Of the
general plan for the drive on Mex

The threatened air attack on No

The Mexican federal government in

federal troops at Vera Cruz, has de-

now is in pursuit of General Esco-
bar, rebel leader in Chihuahua, who
is in full flight, the message ended.
In dispatches which rebel leaders
earlier in the day said they had in
tercepted from federal lines of COM
m%unication, the government was
quoted as admitting the desertion of
General Almazan. He was named
among a group of revolutionary
generals against whom President

OF the Monterrey banks had been
looted.
The time and scene of the first
big battle of the campaign, General
Alamazan said, depends entirely on
General Escobar. He can either
make a stand at Torreon, or Sal
tillo, or retreat into Chihuahua
state. 1t was impossible to esti-
mate the size of the federal force
moving from here, and beyond say
ing he had plenty" General Ala
mazan would not comment on the
size OF his army. He said that he
expected that another army, now
moving from zacatecas would
strike Escobar's army from the
south and east.
The population here seems dis
gusted with the fighting and indif-
ferent. On the night of the capture
of the city, which was completed
about 7:30, two semi-public dances
were held. Residents say that the
re~volutionists got very few volun-
teerS here and that the federals
have had little better luck, recruit
ing only a few adventures.
