Opera Group. assembled last evening
at the Sylvan Theater under the au-
spices of the Community Center De-

livan's sprightly operetta, Trial by
jury"
The lyric soprano voice Of Kathleen
Lawler, who played the part of the
plaintiff in the breach-of-promise suit
around which the operetta is built. was
probably the outstanding treat of the
evening. Miss Lawler's voice was very
sweet and not the least lit blurred.
and, in addition. she brought to her
part great deal of dramatic ability.

the role of defendant. although bass

part better. His voice. while still a

Two other excellent singers-Th Thomas

their roles of counsel for the plaintiff

among those in the jury was Severio

After l had been there a while
these troubles did not seem so bad,
but I am not sure whether somebody
in the control room toned things down
a little (still not nearly enough for
real comfort), or whether had just
gotten used to the din. Anyway, I
left the theater with quite head
ache, apparently due to two hours
of ear strain.
This is not an isolated experience.
haven't had chance to measure
how many decibels of sound are Gus
tomarily put forth in the various
movie houses, but my impression for
a long time has been that the usual
volume is much more than is needed
for comfortably filling the hall. The
excess is not only wasted power, but
the source of distortion of the sound
and a distinct detriment to the health
of the listener. l haven't attempted
any canvass of peoples views on this
subject, but some views which have
been told me, or have been over
heard around me. have been in agree
ment with the view expressed above.
Perhaps you are in a position to
check up on the accuracy of my
observation. Sincerely yours.

Special Dispatch 10 Inc star
HOLLYWOOD. July 10 N.A.N.A).
Here's one little man who's had
busy year and is just aching for
vacation which I've been promising him
for a long time and which I'm going to
give him.
You know. being movie actor seems
like the grandest thing in the world
to everybody but the movie actor. 1t
sounds glorious to have nothing TO do
all day but to make love to beautiful
girls on the screen.
But people forget that We get up at
in the morning: have to be at the
studio at am. to be made up; work
under burning hot lights. while the
sun. at 95 degrees. helps out-and we
have to spend our evenings learning
the next days lines.
Will Go TO Cottage.
But here's what Frederic is going
to do for himself as soon as finish
THE Dark Angel for Sam Goldwyn:
I'm going to get right out of Holly
wood, throw my grease paint into the
attic and hibernate (even though it's
Summer) at my cottage at Laguna.
It's a one-story rambling sort of cot
tage high on the cliffs overlooking the
blue Pacific Ocean in a small. small
community near Laguna Beach; and
If any one mentions the motion pic
lures to me I'm going to shoot him and
plead not guilty by reason of insanity.
I've got a great big front yard
with plenty of shade trees. and lot
of swings, chairs, pillows and rugs
and I'm going TO loll on every one Of
them, and relax and make faces a.
every movie star 1 can think Of. Also.
I'm going to call up every executive
right at his busiest hour, get him on
the line and then say: Il can't talk
to you now! I'm too busy resting!"
I've always wanted to do just that.

lie Bourget q few years ago, and It
gave the United States o dirty black
eye In respect TO the law-abiding
character Of its citizenry. Europe
hasn't yet forgotten Americas boot
Logging era. Hollywood also has much
to regret for the unreal picture Of
American Life It has presented to its
European cinema audience.
Political Angles played Up"
The failures and setbacks Of the
Roosevelt ADMINISTRATION are given
great prominence in the press of Eu-
ropes capitals, especially In the gold
bloc countries. The positive results
Of the New Deal are seldom published,
always minimized and often COM
pletely ignored. It Is all too obvious
that few European governments wish
the New Deal to succeed. 1t may ap-
pear strange, but the writer heard,
both IN serious French and prominent
American circles in Paris, more about
President Roosevelts alleged mental
and physical infirmities than he heard
during several weeks visit In the
United States.
Whispering campaigns travel far,
and the farther they 60 the weaker
are the repudiations and the STRONGER
the whispers. An allegation becomes
an unqualified declaration after 1t has
crossed the ocean. The Impressions
which result are inevitable, and the
questions one Is asked by barkers,
taxicab drivers, train conductors and
