POWELL LIKES
HAND SHAKE
TRADITION

Watching William Powell pre-
pare for the start Of a new
screen production, one might
assume that the suave hero
william" was a politician lining
up votes for himself.
Just before the cameras started
to grind on the first scenes Of
Ladies Man." which is now cur
rent at Loew'S Palace Theater,
Powell's latest talkie for Para
mount, the star shook hands
with the entire cast, that includes
Kay Francis, Carole Lombard,
Gilbert Emery, Olive Tell, John
Holland and Martin Burton, and
even carried the ceremony to the
"bit" players.
Having been trained histrionic-
ally on the stage, where there are
many traditions, Powell believes
that this hand-shaking ritual is
conducive to good luck. He has
made it a practice to go through
the same manual routine just
prior to the start Of each picture.

DIGGES RATED
FINE ACTOR
BY ARLISS:

Dudley Digges, who is noted
for his many excellent characteri-
cations on stage and screen, has
never done a more unusual role
than in support of Bebe Daniels
in "The Maltese Falcon" the
mystery melodrama, playing at
Warner Brothers Earle Theater.
George Arliss, in his autobiog-
raphy, "Up the Years from
Bloomsbury" goes to great pains
to pay Digges an exceedingly high
compliment for his ability as an
actor and as a stage manager.
Digges has now become identi-
fled with talking pictures after
his successful appearance in "Out-
ward Bound" also for Warner
Brothers, and will be seen in
them with increasing frequency
from this time on.
DiggeS is an English actor who
is equally well known for char
acter roles in his native country
and in America. He is a distinct
addition to any featured cast. He
began his stage career at the
Manhattan Theater, in New York
in 1904, with Mrs. Fiske.

work in "Skippy," and here he is

all the skill and convincing quality
of a grease-paint veteran. Watch

then of terrible wound that
creeps into his eyes when the
rugged Richard Dix, his ideal,
smacks him down. Then follow
his acting at the orphanage gates
when he sees his benefactor

out into heart-rending sobs. They
are scenes that, will make you

DU MAURIER'S
FTRILBY' IS
COMPLETE

Blessed with an ability to
sketch his characters in pen
and ink as well as in word pic
lures, George Du Maurier, author
of "Trilby." gave to the world a
doubly clear understanding of
that evil personality, "Svengali,"
when his novel was first pub
lished, by illustrating it with his
own drawings.
In all the stage revivals of the
great drama "Svengal" has been
made to look as much like these
drawings as possible. Before
that story was made into talk
ing picture for Warner Brothers,
with John Barrymore in the sin
lister role, the old prints in the
early American editions were
studied again in every detail
prior to the production.
Barrymore, himself an artist of
no mean ability, studied both
text and pictures to establish not
only his own appearance as
"Svengali" the film version of
which is now playing at Warner
Brothers Metropolitan Theater.
but also to make all the other
characters comply with the
novelist's conception. Several
weeks were consumed in casting
and with wig makers and cos
tuners to insure exact reproduc-
tions of the people who move
through this weird and fascinat-
ing story.

Try-out Is Invited

Another proposal for the Ma
tional Players comes from Milton
Herbert Gropper, who wrote the
Belasco success, Ladies Of the
Evening"" which became Ladies
of Leisure" on the screen.
Playwright Gropper would like
to have the Cochran troupe try
out his latest opus, Grounds for
Indecency." He thinks the COM
pany could do fine job with his
play.
On the day that David Belasco
died, Mr.. Gropper had a definite
appointment with the producer to
sign contracts for Grounds for
Indecency." Obviously, these
plans went amiss. Since then,
Jed Harris and Lee Shubert have
bid for the manuscript. 1t is the
playwright's hope to have his
drama offered here and invite
the interested producers to come
and see it. He would bear the
cost of production and waive
royalty rights for the Washing
ton performances.

Art Students Aided

Many of the thrilling scenes OF
"Svengali," the Warner Bros.
picture starring John Barrymore
and now at Warner Bros. Metro
politan Theater, are laid in the
attic studios of the Latin Quar-
ter of Paris, where the weird
power of the hypnotist is exer-
cised on Trilby, the lovely artists
model.
To give actualtty to the scenes
the men students of the Otis
Art School, of Los Angeles, moved
bag and baggage to the Warner
studios. They are seen making
sketches of Triby in what she
naively called "the altogether"
Marian Marsh plays the part of
Trilby with rare understanding.
Her fragile and flowerlike lowell
