TT seems that my honorable confession
Of love for Greta Carlo has been
oficially accepted by the great army Of
Carlo worshipers and I am now
formally forgiven for having had the
bad taste to refer to her as ''the Swedish
icicle''
One young lady writes to tell me that
she is saving her money and as soon
as she has assembled $500 she is going
to Sweden to "seep UP some of the
atmosphere which produced Greta
Carlo. That sum will be only sufficient
to get her to Sweden, where she knows
no one. not even the language, but she
is confident that the atmosphere will
work a magic spell
do you think I am trying to do
something impossible and silly?" she
asks In her letter. IF I save enough
to go properly it will take five years
and I'll be too old to gather any i'm
pressions. I'm % years old now, so
| there's not much time to lose"
In reply to this can only say that
was fully 90 years of age when Greta
Carlo first swan into my ken and
believe it or not) was not too old
even then to gather impressions.
Furthermore, hear that the climate
of Sweden is apt to be disagreeable at
this time of year. So perhaps the
young lady had better wait.

Hard Up for Stories.

MOTION picture producers are hav-
40 ing q hard time obtaining suitable
story material for their programs for
the coming year, according to Variety
The edict still stands, however, that
no unsolicited manuscripts will be read
by the scenario departments.
Variety puts the situation as follows:
Dialogue pictures demand far more
careful and discriminate selection OF
stories than the silent products fol
which most anything was adaptable
The producers already lining up prod
uctS for the ''30-'31' picture season, re-
port an acute scarcity of material. For
the first time the industry is experience
ing real difficulty in locating matter
considered suitable for filming"
The article also points out that the
stage had developed little material suit
able for motion picture production dur
ing the past year, and that while there
are many novels available, most Of them
seem to lack the necessary action
Magazine stories have become too wordy
for adoption, it is said.

Vaudeville Climbing.

THE embellishments that 60 with
movies nowadays are becoming
more and more elaborate. Fanchon and
Marco having set a high standard in
exclusively stage entertainment, there
seems to be a demand for even bigger
and better productions.
Loews One Hundred and Seventy
fifth Street Theater, in New York, has
begun the campaign by inaugurating
two stages for the customary one. The
orchestra pit that used to slide grace
fully into the floor will be transformed
into an ingenious stage, divided into
three sections, each of which may be
raised or lowered as a separate unit.

A Glimpse of Tergenev.

as a playwright. His most ambitious
piece, "a Month in the Country" flrst
entitled THE Student" was produced
by the Moscow Art Theater for the
generation that applauded Chekhov.
The theme. like that Of Balzac's
"Maratre," is the struggle between q
girl and q mature woman for young
mans affections. The play Is q psy-
Geological piece for the intimate thea
ter, quite in Chekhov's vein. With the
exception Of 1.-THE Parasite" the other
plays are less serious in content, nor
can the farcical element in their sit
uations quite break through the Aim Of
dizziness that covers them.
These comedies were written by q
man who was a regular theatergoer in
Paris, night after night seeing the cur
tain rise on Scribe and MusSet. At the
same time they were the work of one
who drew his materials exclusively
from his native Russian background,
and who painted himself into the pic
ture like another Tintoretto.

IN trying his hand at playwrighting
Lawn Tergenev, author Of "A Month
in the Country" which the New York
Theater Guild is presenting at the
National Theater, for the first time In
America. was at once yielding to a
native impulse and to that interesting
theater which was such passion with
him throughout his long and pleasant
exile in Paris. His sense Of dramatic
conflict, however, required for its ex-
preston a more leiSurely medium than
the drama. He grew to dislike his
plays as he disliked his poems. But,
while he denied his verse as often as
the cock crowed, he included his
dramas in his complete works. Yet
they were originally written for the
stage, with particular actors in mind,
and scored successes both at home
and, later. abroad.
It was his own dissatisfaction, rather
than that of his audiences, which led
him to renounce the idea Of himself

THE news announcement of last
Wednesday from Hollywood to
the effect that Charlie Chaplin
was to head a new production
firm making silent pictures has
created considerable interest in
motion picture circles. Chaplin
has never liked the noisy pictures.
He is a pantomimist, and there is
a place, no doubt, for pantomime
in the pictures, as there Is, in most
countries, for pantomime on the
stage.
Chaplin is prepared, according
to the news story, to put between
S., 100000 and $40, 900 into the
new venture. If he does this it will
be a big project-a project with a
great deal of sincerity and hard
cash behind it. He announces
that there will be four or five stars
in the new company and John Gill
bert'S name has been mentioned
as one of the number. Gilbert'S
sound pictures have Hoped. It
is natural to suppose that other
stars of the new company may be
those who were big box office at
fractions in the old days, but who
were lost when the sound pictures
came into being. For instance, 1t
is probable that we may have
some more work by Emil Jannings,
Pola Negri and others, if Chaplin's
plan goes through. 1t is said,
however, in the case Of Jannings,
that he is planning to return to
this country soon equipped with
an English vocabulary.
