the result Of two separate and dis

into a deep ditch. Only the top and
a portion OF the back OF the car
could be seen from the highway af-
ter the accident, in which two w0-
men were cut and taken TO the
Valley Baptist hospital at Harlin-

we're not serious, and that after

about 8 o'clock while the coupe ia
being pulled out Of the ditch. A cal
belonging to Steve Brodie of Dallas
forced a large delivery truck be-
longing to the Perez bakery Of
Brownsville off the road and into
the ditch almost on top OF the coupe.
The cable stretched between the
coupe and the wrecker was all that
saved the truck from Tipping over
into the ditch. The truck was rest
ing ON two wheels. propped against
the cable.
Mr.. Brodie was placed under ar
rest by Officer z. Z. Sadier. and he
will likely be tried during the latter

PLAY REWRITTEN
FOR SOUND FILM
PirandeIIo, Italian Author,
Goes to Berlin to Market
"Six Characters"
By the Associated Press,

| BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April 25.-Luigi Pirandello,
italian playwright and poet. desires to
be handed down to posterity, not only
through his literary works, but also
through the motion picture or the
sound film.
The man who wrote "Six Characters
in Search of an Author" has arrived
in Berlin in search of movie or talkie
producer with Imagination enough to
grasp the significance of Pirandello's
first Subjectivist scenario.
IT have Just rewritten my Six Char
acters' as q movie scenario" said
Pirandello, who is spending some weeks
in Germany, experimenting the pro-
duction of several Of his plays. 1.-THE
theater director of my stage play is
changed into the author in my move
scenario. In other words, I desire my
self to play the role Of what, in the
stage play, is the theater director.
1.-THE musical composer of today
transmits his composition to posterity
not only through the printed page. He
invokes the aid of the monograph to
leave to the world an exact version of
his self-interpretation.
Then, why should the modern play
wright not make use OF the movie and
talkie to reveal himself? In playing
the role of the author In Six Char
acters' I shall be playing myself. I
shall reveal myself as I really am in
the film drama"
Though modestly disclaiming that
his proposal of acting in a subjectivis-
tic way film may blaze new trail,
Pirandello admitted that other char
acters of our time might want to follow
in his footsteps and reveal the movie
drama.
