hundreds of grunting pigs in the barn
yard.

OPEN AIR MUSIC
TO BEGIN SOON
FOR NEW YORK
Hans KindIer to
Conduct Band
Theref for " eek.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 15.-TWo Of the
Nations most important Summer music
projects, the stadium and Goldman
open-air concerts, in New York, get
under way this month.
The stadium concerts begin their
usual 8-week course June 20 in Lew
isohn Stadium of the College OF the
City of New York under the direction
of Willem Van Hoogstraten. 1t is the
sixteenth stadium season and Hoog-
straten's twelfth consecutive year as
chief conductor.
This Summer the thousands who
nightly perch on the concrete for music
under the stars will hear three other
conductors. Hans Kinder, conductor OF
the Washington, D. c., Symphony, will
be heard for a week; Leon Barzin, young
conductor of the National Orchestral
Association in New York, will be heard
for the same length Of time, and Hans
Lange assistant conductor Of the Phil
harmonic Symphony of New York, Will
have at least three nights.
For the first time in its history the
chorus of the Metropolitan Opera Co.
is to be heard with another organization
when it appears, once in July and again
in August, with the stadium orchestra
(Which is again the Philharmonlc-Sym-
phony, Incidentally.
In addition, Hoogstraten has ar
ranged for the assistance of the Schola
Cantorum chorus in a performance OF
the Beethoven Ninth Symphony" for
| a performance by the Hall johnson
Negro Choir, and for an evening OF
the dance by Edwin Strawbridge and
Pauline Komer.
The Goldman Bands season will
open Monday night, on the Mall in Cen
tral Park, and at the first concert
Goldman will offer his answer to the
problem of the man who never can re-
member more than the first two lines
of song.
He has written a march with re-
frain to be sung, and the only words
are la, la, la" The march is called
"Cheerio!'' And it will be introduced
at the opening concert by chorus OF
$50 school children, with the audience
la-la-ing from the sidelines.
This season he also has novelty
among his instrumental tuba with
two bells" and two mouthpieces,
capable of playing the highest notes Of
a baritone horn and the lowest of the
traditional tuba. Two men could use
the same horn, William Bell, the in
ventor, explains, but they won't. Bell
will use both mouthpieces alternately.
Goldman concerts will again be di-
vided between Central Park and the
campus of New York University.

When Critics Like Films
And Public Refuses Them
It's Just Difference of Opinion After All, but the
Cinema Digest" Brings Out the Case of
Zoo In Budapest"
By E. de S. Melcher.

these same audiences came forth from
their worldly pleasures they were Shak-
ing their heads and saying, "gaudy, but
not too nice-what?"
Unfortunately, reviewer must make
up his mind all at once. He cannot
go home and hash his ideas out with
Sister H. or Brother B. over quiet
evening meal. He must unleash some
thing (no matter WHAT almost as
soon as that something has come to
mind He hasn't time to stand listen
ing to his public as it makes up its
mind.
Furthermore, if he has TO go to the
bat for a picture he will do it. if he
believes it worthwhile, and in spite of
a lazy public This does not mean,
however, that he is out of kilter with
the major beliefs. He may be with
the popular beliefs, but not necessarily
with those who make up small yet
essential part Of a motion picture
audience.
If Mr.. Lasky made the mistake of
calling Zoo in Budapest" by that name
so that it wouldn't attract the necessary
cinema flies, is that any reason for say
ing that it isn't much of a picture?
Cinema Digest" we are surprised
but then. by this time you may be, too!

BROTHER PRINCES
D|SAPPO|NT STARS
Mary McCormic and Mae
Murray Seek Release From
"Great Mdivani Lovers"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, June Is LP).-A mo-
ton picture star and q star of grand
opera who married brother princes and
declared them great lovers have changed
their minds.
Mary McCormic of grand opera filed
suit for separate maintenance today
against Serge M'Divani of the little
Soviet Republic Of Georgia, charging
many acts of cruelty.
Just last Friday, Mae Murray, blond
charner of the screen, brought divorce
action against Serge'S brother, David
MDivani. who had been hailed as ''the
most fascinating man in Hollywood" ="
She said he was unreasonably jealous.
Both Ask Receivers.
Both had a receiver appointed yes
terday for business interests of their
husbands.
Prince Serge and Miss McCormic were
married at Phoenix, Ariz., April II, 1881,
shortly after he was divorced from his
! first wife, Pola Negri, once famous film
star Both at times had declared Serge
the worlds great lover.
But now Miss McCormic charges that
about every three weeks Serge MDlvani
would have violent outburSt of temper,
that he blackened one of her eyes in
q beverly Hills nOJel idSJ OCIUDtT, IildI
he locked her in her room to prevent
her from keeping social engagements
and that he threatened to mutilate and
cripple her for life.
Miss Murray's Fourth.
Miss Murray said that if she so much
as danced with another man her hus-
band would sulk and that he frequently
walked out on her guests. He was her
fourth husband.
On the financial side, Miss Murray
said she advanced money to Prince
David to buy third interest in three
oil companies, and that although his
return from them was more than $500
month, he failed to support her.
Miss McCormic declared she advanced
Prince Serge 100000 during their two
years of married life and received only
$500 in return
A third member of the royal family,
Prince Alexis M'Divani, is preparing to
marry an heiress in Paris. She is
Barbara Hutton, who will inherit the
WooiWorth millions.
"I like the life Alexis leads" she is
| quoted as saying. "Once an American
marries a girl, he wraps himself up in
business again"

the difference between motion picture
critics and motion picture audiences?
Possibly, Just pose.
Cinema Digest believes the critics
of the screen accredited to the important
dailies of America should nearly ap-
proximate the tastes and desires of the
motion picture public. If they are to
function as a guide for the picture
audiences, they should learn what the
preferences of their followers usually
are If, teo often, they call pictures
good that the public dislikes, or pictures
bad that the public selects and delights
in seeing, their influence Is gone, their
space wasted, their salaries misspent."
The above comes as a major dis
appointment from a gazette we had
thought liberal minded and tolerant.
We are frankly surprised to hear such
a defender of the written word say:
IF they (reviewers) are to function as
q guide for the picture audiences, they
shiuld learn what the preferences of
their followers usually are" Or What
Is the difference between motion pic
ture critics and motion picture audi
ences? Possibly just pose" Or again
suggest that reviewers be chastised for
liking such an eminently worthwhile
film as Zoo in Budapest" even though
it is hitting new lows IN the theaters
of the country"
We shouldn't care if Zoo in Buda-
pest went boom" in every theater in
the world-we should still say that it is
one of the really fine pictures of the
year.
CuriouSly enough every cinema pa
tron we know of Cbut one) who at
tended this film came away from 1t feel
ing not pleasantly surprised and some
what exalted.
Furthermore we are convinced that
If Mr. Lasky had given it a better name
something more conventionally Holly
wood-something with more of ply
sical ring to it, it would have hourished
as few pictures have. Or If 1t had been
graced with some Hollywood dynamo,
not an actress but dynamo. something
they call "Box-ofhce," something other
than the suddenly capable Gene Ray
mond, it would have landed head and
shoulders above many of its brothers
and sisters.
Just because the picture is being
neglected around and about, should re-
viewers bow their heads and admit that
they are cockeyed? Should they be
to don sackcloth and ashes because
they have trodden on the toes of their
public?
We doubt it. First because we believe
that those who saw the film liked it.
And, secondly, because If reviewers have
to make up their minds ahead of time
just what their public is going to like
then their burden would be intolerable
Should we have won our spurs, Gin
ema Digest" If we had, for instance,
shouted from the housetops that
Blonde of the Follies" was by all odds
the best picture of the year? The
public attended it here in droves.
Hoards Of sisters and cousins and their
aunts roared into the Palace Theater
and almost knocked each other down
in their joy to see such thing The
