Best Of Enemies
Columbia

Light, frothy and mildly divert
ing, "BeSt of Enemies" which
opened at the Columbia yesterday,
presents Buddy Rogers, Marian
Nixon, Frank Morgan and Joseph
CaWthorn in the film, with Nor
gan walking away with the honors.
Telling the story of pair of
lovers whose fathers are bitter
enemies, the picture traces the
adventures of the pair, both in
Germany and here, with beer and
breweries entering into the COM
pliCations.
Morgan plays one of the fond
parents, who has strong diSlikeS
to liquor, only to wind up as part
owner of brewery with CaWthorn
as his copartner The deft
touches of his humor places his
portrayal far above the others in
the production, with CaWthorn
taking second honors.
Buddy Rogers, still resembling a
collar ad, and acting like one Of
the Rover boys playing hockey,
does we'll enough with his role of
the put-upon son, with Marian
Nixon his sweet love. The one
song heard is pleasingly tuneful.
The supplementary bill includes
a do You Remember" reel, with
some interesting views of the past;
a comedy and the news.

Bill would advance him a few
more of the red pebbles. But
you may be certain that he
kept complete track of all the
pebbles that were borrowed.
One morning, just when
things were moving at their

to disturb the whole routine.
One of the players. his cheeks
flushed and his eyes popping,

breathlessly, "on the favorite in

Bill Baker looked at his list.

placed it on the ground and
looked Bill squarely in the eye.

Glen Echo Park
Scores Again

Last night Glen Echo Park
scored another uSem n t
triumph when for the first time
in its history an extra added
attraction was put on in the
Spanish Garden Ballroom. The
Four Dots, appearing last night
before a capacity audience
brought forth loud salvos of
applause and cheers from the
dancers in the ballroom, and from
the spectators in the balconies,
and from those on the outside
determined to get a peek.
These artists who appear over
the N. B. C. network danced as
only this type of performer can
dance-they sang songs, and they
played everything from haunting
melodies to red hot jazz on
instruments specially adapted to
their peculiar requirements.

Everybody knows by now, thanks
to the widespread circulation Of
The Washington Times, that
Judge Andrew Kelley is vaca-
tionaing, presumably at Atlantic
City and points north. Hence
the appearance Of this venerable
and familiar theatrical name at
the head of this column-but
cheer up. There will positively
not, I can assure you, be an
autobiography of George Spelvin
on this page at any time in the
near future, not even mention of
the occasion on which he played
the role of set rock in The
Orphans" at Little Rock, Ark.

Kaufman Will Help

The Dramatists' Guild of the
Authors League of America is
not represented, because, says
Vice President George S. Kauf-
man, it doesn't think it comes
within the scope of the act, mas
much as it has neither employers
nor employees. However, it as
sures the general its readiness
to cooperate.
Then for the code. After
preamble and definitions, it pro-
Vides for a National Legitimate
Theater Committee consisting of
a representative of each of the
subscribing labor organizations,
and of other groups legitimately
entitled to be represented; a
representative of the DramatiSts'
Guild, three from theatrical en-
ployers, and three of the NRA.
The employers accept the right
OF employees to organize and bar
gain collectively, and declare
themselves in favor of fair scales.
The minimum wage for actors
shall be $40 to $50 week,
depending on the box-office top,
though actors with less than two
years experience will have a
minimum wage of $25.
The chorus minimum will be
$50, and at the end of two weeks
rehearsal period, actors getting
less than $10O a week will get
weeks pay. For the first and Sec
ond week of production, half SAL
aries will be paid. Abuses of
hours of labor during the rehear-
sal period will be corrected, it is
promised.
Stage hands and musicians will
rate a minimum of $50 week for
eight performances, 40-hour
week, and pro rata for perform
anceS or rehearSals. However,
present scales are accepted as they
stand. No minimum wage or hour
schedule is set for scenic artists or
transfer men, as they have con-
tractual engagements.
Press Agents, Too
Wardrobe people will get a
minimum of $50 for 40-hour
week, and press agents $50, ex-
cept that when they are travelling
the minimum will be SIS. There
shall be a weeks notice for dis
miSsals.
