"MY PAsT' STARRING BEBE DANIELS AND HUSBAND BEN
 LYON, OPENS AT THE STATE

A large audience gathered this aft ernoon at Warner Brothers State theater gave enthusiastic evidence of their appreciation of Bebe Daniels in the title role of the strangely fas- cinating story of the loves of fla nous actress. The applause was not alone for the lovely star of "Rio Rita," but for husky Ben Lyon who made such 8 furore in "Helps An gels" and for Lewis Stone, whose boise and strength has made him the favorite of fandom everywhere.
 These two men are cast as busi- ness partners and inseparable friends. The older man had loved Doree for years and it is only when the youth appears on the scene that he knows that his long pursuit of love is useless. The younger man portrayed by Natalie Moorehead. Re- husband and the alluring Doree to- gether, and gladly takes it as an ex- cuse to go back to Paris for the di- vorce which will free her to marry another man.
 When the younger man finds that his friend loves Doree, he himself goes, leaving her to grieve in secret. Then begins the real story which climbs steadily to an affecting cli- max. My Past" is sensational, nov ing and sincere and should be placed on your list of plays that must be seen.
 Bebe Daniels performance is deeply beautiful--it lays bare a soul torn between past happiness and the desire for present and future realiza-

GOSSIP OF HOLL WOOD
Stars Worry As New Film, Requiring Less Light,
 Necessitates Use OF Different Makeup"
By DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writcr

Hollywood.-The panic which swept Hollywood back in 1928 when the talkies took their first firm grip on the film industry, has returned again. although not in such large proportions.
 Actors and actresses both are go- ing around with worried looks on their faces and they are joined in their predicament by scores of ex- pert makeup men. Why? Because of a new high-speed film which has recently been perfected by the East man Kodak company. This film, the outstanding forward step1in the mo- tion picture industry since the intro- duction of sound, will to large ex- tent revolutionize the production of pictures, 1t is claimed.
 The new film requires only from one-third to one-fourth the amount of light required by the standard film in use to-day. Consequently the actors and actresses find themselves in the position of having to use en- tirely different make-up-and they don't know what to use. Some al- ready have made tests with the new film but so far none have found a makeup that is entirely satisfactory.
 One of the principal advantages of the new film is from health stand point. With the diminised lighting necessary, kleig eye, common ail- ment caused by the, terrific lights used up to now, will be thing of the past. Severe colds and the flu, brought on by players walking from the terrific heat of the lights onto drafty stages, also will be eliminated tc large extent.
 Although Pathe has not yet closed the deal for securing the film rights 10 James M. Barrie's stage play, What Every Woman Knows" 1t is probable that Ann Harding's next that story. Negotiations now are under way and are expected to be completeA within the next few days. Incidentally Ann has just been hand ed a new contract which brings her more money but stipulates that she can't be loaned to any other studio.
 While speaking of contracts, we might mention the one Constance Bennett signed with Warner Broth- CTS, in as much as it will net Con- stance the highest salary ever paid to a film star-$30,000 per week. The agreement stipulates that Miss Ben nett is to be paid $300,000 for mak- ing two productions, both of which must be completed within 10 weeks time. Not bad deal for Constance, if you ask us.
 And now we will talk about real money-$18O, 100000. That is the sum asked by Orlando E. Kellum in a suit filed against virtually all com panies producing talking pictures. kellum claims that he perfected the process and devices which made the talkies possible back in 1919 and hat the defendants have been in- ringing on his inventions.
 Wonder what he will do with all Il at money if he gets it?
