Studio Introduces New Film Camera

HOLLYWOOD, April IA
new camera that will save hun
dreds Of hours and thousands OF
dollars in picture production has
been developed by william Egling-
ton and Harry Cunningham and
their associates Of the camera de-
partment at the RKO Radio
studios.
Seeing the necessity for i'm
provement in the cameras used,
these men began their expert
ments more than a year ago anu
today they have evolved a camera
that boasts Of a minimum Of
bulk, improved sound quality, syn
cronization Of the focusing Of
lense and finder and complete
control and operation Of all opera
tions from the outside Of the
camera instead Of from the inside
Of the casing or blimp.
The new camera weighs only
The Washington times., 1934-04-14

115 pounds loaded as compared
with 100 in the old style camera.
The camera Is only one half tho
size Of the former machine and
this facilitates moving it about
and having it clear lights, sound
boom and other objects.
The new camera operates a.
quickly and easily as q silent
camera, and fade in and out, cut
ting Of the shutter, setting Of ths
viewing glasses and focusing OF
the eye piece are all done from
the outside without opening the
blimp. The walls of the new
camera are from nine,sixteenths
to three-Quarters Of an inch thick
as compared with three inches in
the old camera. There is no glass
in front Of the lense and this
obviates the necessity or watching
for and guarding against light re.

"All Quiet on the Wetsern Front"
Is being revived at the Rialto.
What q swell idea. Why not
some Of the other truly great pic
lures such as orphans Of the
Storm" and "The Covered Wagon"
to mention only q few.
MY first choice for q revival
would be "Our Dancing Daugh-

MY favorite star is Barbara Stan

was superb.

Enclosed you will find my opin-
ions on all three questions:
/. How do I like Hollywood pic
lures? All right. Except for gang
ster and uninteresting war pic
lures.
q. Favorite star. Carlo. Be-
cause she created her own per-
sonanty. Glamour does not change
but our conception Of it does. It
cannot be created but is con-
stantly developed. Garbo has the
faculty of being subtle and differ
ent.
3. About stories. prefer stories
like Queen Christina" Best pic
ture of the month. Isn't any de-
bate about it. Garbo. queen Of
queens. Only one Carlo. She
proves it Superbly in the best per-
Torrance she has yet given to
talkieS. She has shed her Ian
guor, her secret sorrows and is
less an exotic automaton. She is
alive, eager, human. Respect
fully,

There are a number of young
stars in pictures, but Richard
Cromwell outShines every one Of
them. Cromwell played a small
part in Carolina, and you can
see that he puts his whole heart
and soul into his acting.
I can't understand why some
Of the producers don't give him
q part for which he would be
suited. Richard Cromwell, to my
mind, is one of the finest young
actors in pictures today. I am
sure in time to come he will be
one of Hollywood's greatest stars.
