A new method Of learning to

E. Brown, and you can see it dem:
onstrated at Warner Bros. Earle
Theater, where Joe Is starred in
Going Wild" the First National
aviation comedy. ~
In one sequence Of the picture
Joe is q newspaper man who is
mistaken for a famous author of
an aeronautical story. He is prac-
tically forced by his deception
into flying a plane in an air race.
OF course, he never had flown
before. but it is up to him to pre-
tend that he is a second Lind
bergh, so he sets out to learn
what he can about the controls.
He rigs up a bed with ropes in
such a manner that he can sit at
the foot with the handle Of a
vacuum cleaner as the Joy Stick
and an aviation book as his guide.
He swings himself around into all
Of the necessary positions called
for by stunt pilots. This Is one OF
the many hilarity- provoking mo
ments in Going Wild"

first played by Elsie Leslie when
the play was written so that both
parts could be played by one per-

quire two people for the playing
of the two parts, and it is this
latter version that the Junior
Theater is presenting, with Henry
Hull, jr., and Leslie Orleans ap-
pearing as doubles.
The story hinges about a prince

Walter Pidgeon objects to being

Pidgeon,A who plays an import

E. Brown starring comedy now
showing at Warner Brothers
Earle Theater, has proven a SEN
sation in talking pictures, and
some Of the more sentimental
woman writer's have tried to dub
him "the screens most romantic
lover" Pidgeon objects to it
strenuously.
Pidgeon is essentially a manly
man, and his principal success on
the stage was in light comedy
rather than in romantic roles.
He is a war veteran, having
gone to France with the Canadian
army. He was seriously wounded,
and lay in a hospital nearly a
year. When he was declared in.
capacitated, he joined Elsie Janis
on her theatrical tour Of the A.
E. F., having previously taken
part in amateur theatricals in
school.
Became q Broker
He returned to America with
no notion of becoming an actor.
He had inherited some money,
married and had entered the
brokerage business. His wife died
when a baby daughter was born.
Then a business depression
caused him to lose most of his
money when the brokerage house
crashed. On top of it came q
recurrence Of his war injuries.
When he had recovered he cast
about for a means Of making q
living, and recalled that Miss
Janis had asked him to get in
touch with her. He wrote her,
and she Immediately wired him
to join her show. He remained
with her for several years, and
became famous for his fine sing
ing voice.
He entered pictures in 1925,
playing various important roles.
