Many Joan Crawfords
To Make a Movie Star
By Mollie Merrick.

histrionically-and she is but a little
way along the arc. She will accept
many notions and reject as many dur
ing her career. Just as she has &C
cepted the idea of red hair. of platinum
blonde, or darkest brown and then gone
back to her own nut-brown, silken, al
most-straight hair as being the most
individual and becoming Of them all.
Her searching art may make mistakes
at times, but it will be the more inter-
esting because of that. Art that stands
still makes no mistakes and no artistic
history. The Weather-vane tempera-
ment that is Joan Crawford always
swings back to position when the winds
Of the moment cease blowing.
One day she comes on the lot In
the modern designers version OF a
guardsmans costume-scarlet double
breasted coat, snug-fltting black bread
cloth skirt. a tiny cap percheo on one
side of the head 1t is the sort of mod
ern tour de force in dress which only
youth and beauty can dare. Yes. and
poise. And that is most characteristic
Of the new Joan Crawford, her poise
and surety.
Next day she may appear in turtle
neck sweater, white slacks, sun-glasses
and driving her own car. And that Is
typical of Joan Crawford at all times
her ability to be many types in one and
her honesty in being any day exactly
what she is and feels herself to be on
that particular day.
It's a long progress from the little
girl who danced through Sally, Irene
and Mary" with Constance Bennett and
Molly O'Day to the Joan Crawford OF
today And some DAY a writer Of
cinema will describe another Joan Craw-
ford, and that Joan Crawford will have
as many new phases as the one you've
read about today.
Joan Crawford laughs at some Of the
things she's done, and is wistful about
others. But to each and every phase
of the girl Joan she gives an honest
hearing and to her performances she
brings that fine critical severity which
is the hallmark of those who go the
top and stay there.

.HIs past week has seen the

THIS past week has seen the
official opening of the
Washington musical sea-
4 son. More than ever be-
fore this has a potential mean
ing, marking as 1t does the sec
ond birthday of WaShington'S
cherished offspring, the SYM
phony Orchestra. The deeper
Significance lies in the fact that
the Washington public is stand
ing back of its own in united for
nation, giving of its energies, its
interests and, more important
still at this moment, it's financial
support. At last Washington can
look into the future with hope In
its eyes, seeing the glittering pos
sibilities of an outstanding place
in the musical sun.
A stigma which has corroded
this fair city'S name is its past
reputation for being unmusical.
One is often content to believe
that this means lack OF the dl,
vine gift which makes musical
appreciation so easy to a CHOSEN
few. To analyze-it is an unre-
sponsiveneSs to the finer type OF
music, a contentment with melo-
dies that lull the ear. too great
an inertia to climb the heights
and gaze on the greater beau
ties, sluggishness preventing the
opening of heart and mind to an
elevating influence.
The courage and farsightedneSs
of a few have realized this condi-
tion and gone to work to eradi-
cate it. The direct result was the
establishment of the Symphony
Orchestra, a musical guide, as it
were. This second season, always
the hardest with all young things,
will prove it's capacity for growth
and strength.
Experience has discovered that
musical understanding can be as,
simulated at very early age, ana
the concerts for children are put
ting in the correct foundation IN
the Young years of the city's fu-
ture leaders. With an organized
plan, their artistic education is
assured. 1t is the lack OF occasion
to hear good music that prevents
constructive education, setting
music on a distant plane to be
approached rarely, but not really
made a part of daily life. 1t is
true that, like the poor. we have
music always with us, but often
times it is just that-poverty
stricken and ragged. Those agree
able sounds, sometimes designated
by the name of their sacred sis
ter, lead into a labyrinth, the exit
of which can be found side by
side with the entrance.
1t has been said that since Old
Man Depression has been in
power, mans thoughts have
turned more to the higher arts.
More books are read, the lost art
of conversation is revived and
more concerts are attended. For
the first time in many moons we
have leisure to think, and thought
fully listening to good music is
uplifting, strengthening and edu-
eating. It need not be lux
ury. A little money invested
brings enormous returns.
Music, the great art, is mex
haustible, having always more
and more to offer the sincere
seeker. It's three angles-com-
poser, interpreter and listener
are almost equally satisfying.
