The story Of Calvin Coolidge's s
electric horse already has been
recalled. What probably per-
suaded the thirtieth President to
confine his equestrian efforts to
the bed room was the one and
only real horseback ride he took
in washington.
Mr.. Coolidge hadn't really in

so close to doing a Prince Of

went near the White House
stables. Four years later, he

Seeks General Pershing"
It was shortly after ne had
become President that Mr.. Cool
idge unwillingly ,emulated Paul
Revere. He had just moved into
the White House and, like q
boy with new toys, was busy
inspecting all Of his temporary
possessions.
On a bright Sunday morning
about two hours before he was
due at church, the new Presi-
dent ordered his car fsand di-
rected that he be driven to the
stables. There, he had Lieut..
Joe Mathieson, in charge, show
hinA General Pershfng," the
horse especially reserved for the
Executive.
Meanwhile, in some way George

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. II.
Here is some red meat for your
cinema diet.
AS soon as he completes THE
White Sister. Clark Gable is to
co-star with Wallace Beery in the
Soviet story that has been knock
ing around Metro GoldWyn-Maye
for some months new. Perhaps
this explains why the studio
turned down Clark's request for
the lead in Clear All Wires"
which also had a Russian locale.
Soviet" the only name for the
new film to date, has given
M-G-M writer's a good deal Of
trouble. The final and successful
treatment must be partially cred
tied to Frank Capra, Columbia'S
star director, who is being loaned
for the one picture.
Capra is the man who turned
out the best of the Jack Holt
Ralph Graves melodramaS. He
is one Of the screens outstanding
directors of action stories.
