HOLLYWOOD Oddities.

1T takes all kinds Of people to make
a world-and some of the weirdest
are assembled in Hollywood. AS happy
hunting ground for the student Of hu-
man oddities, the film capital has no
rival. Specimens to be found in no
other places in the world abound there.
These strange types peculiar to the
film city are placed on display in their
natural haunts in What Price Holly
wood" the R-K-O Pathe picture star
ring Constance Bennett and which, In
cidentally, is starting an indefinite en-
gagement at Keith's beginning Wednes-
day. July 6.
There is the beautiful waitress who
dreams of fame while she dispenses
hash and gets it. Miss Bennett plays
this favorite Hollywood type, the Gin
derella of the kitchen. There Is the
producer who schemes with the STRAIT
egy of a Napoleon. While not as COM
mon as Cinderella. this type portrayed
by Gregory Ratof is known to still
flourish.
A. more vanishing Hollywoodian Is
played by Lowell Sherman. He Is the
f1ighty director who nurses his genius
on rye and his hangovers on Scotch.
This playboy marvel was on his way
under before he fairly started and to-
day his sun has set. The way of his
passing is graphically pictured in the
Aim.
The wealthy sportsman who hobnobs
with the movies because Of the beauties
in its ranks is another familiar type.
Nell Hamilton brings 1t to the screen
as MSS Benefits leading man.
Among the other types that occur are
the executive who says yes" and thinks
no; the professional sycophant who
says yes" and doesn't think at all; the
man who coins new synonyms for
"stupendous," epic" gigantic" and
mammoth; the ham actor who would
be another Richard Dix if he only got
the breaks, and broken down extra play
ers who taught John Barrymore all he
knows today.

7 OLLYWOOD. Calf, July a.
Now that we are making pic
lures on what a New York
l. A banker chose to term "our last
bank roll" it's interesting to
scan the field and see precisely what
producers consider the best bets on
tlghtest financing To make these pic
lures safe for distribution producers
are vaIiantly exchanging stars. writer's,
directors and cameramen If necessary.
They would seem to be standing Shoul-
der to shoulder in a fight against
financial Stringency. They have slashed
salaries in all directions save those of
competition
NO big star has been forced to the
wall and made to take a voluntary re-
ouction. Richard Barthelmess took
big reduction, but arranged it SO that
it became something more in terms
OF work than something less in terms
of money. Whereas he made four pic
lures a year for certain sum, he would
make flve for the same sum. Thus his
budget for the year totals the same
amount And producers have an op-
portunity to make more money on him.
Thereby it becomes a healthy salary
reduction.
Contract writer's not in tremendous
demand have taken crisp cuts. That
vast army of secretaries, stenographers,
publicity clerks and directors, all the
crew Of the technical world, have taken
their 10 to 20 per cent But in the
case of a boy-office star, a boX-cfice
story or smash-hit play. prices are
still pretty good around Hollywood and
will continue to be so long as there is
breath in the cinema body.
Having squeezed the gang" subject
dryer than a biscuit, producers wrung

ner. Aviation has done its bit and If
you don't believe it ask the neuralgics
how they feel when they come out ef

all tell you that the sound effects are
out of proportion.
