= Trilby Tomorrow.

A PLAY that all the world took to its
n heart at the turn of the CEN
tury, "Trilby" comes to the Roadside
tomorrow night. The revival of Paul
M. Pctters dramatiZation of the most
popular novel of the day will run for
two weeks at the Rockville Pike Barn
Theater.
In April, 1915, Frederick F.
Schrader, editor of the New York
Dramatic Mirror. wrote of the sec
ond revival of "Trilby":: THE ardent
reception accorded 'Trilby' on its re-
vival last Saturday night to a packed
house may be explained on Mr.. Will
ton Lackaye's theory that the pleas
ure is partly the pleasure of memory,
but l am disposed to attribute it to
the power of the characters in the
play itself, and hazard the prophecy
that it will bear revival 20 years from
now!" And now, in 1885. just 20
years after that successful produc-
tion, the Roadside puts Mr.. Schrader's s
prophecy to the test.
A similar view was taken by the
New York Dramatic News, whose re-
viewer said: Revived after 20 years
of popularity. there is a new gener-
alton since Svengali first wove his
spell or Trilby sang, and that is why
the revival is timely Indeed, it was
a treat to sit out this play, which has
not suffered through the lapse of
time, but remains as fascinating as
ever. By all means see 'Trilby.' 1t
is one of the few dramas not full OF
creaks. 1t hmbers up to the present
moment" And the New York World
said: Few of the plays that were
popular in the COS would be likely to
meet the test of a revival so success
fully as Paul NJ Potter's dramatic YER
sion of George du Mauriers Trilby.
Time has not lessened the uncanny
fascination of Svengali. 'Trilby,' even
though rather venerable as plays go,
is still thoroughly human in its in
terest, finely imaginative in its treat
ment."

Fairbanks to Produce.

ENDING a silence of many months
concerning his plans both as a
screen star and founder-member OF
United Artists, Douglas Fairbanks has
made known his intention to produce
two films a year for release through
United Artists. On February /, 1886,
he begins production activities in Hol-
lywood, and thereafter will make
America his permanent home.
In re-entering the field of motion
picture production in America after
his brief association with London
Films, Fairbanks joins Mary Pickford,
Charlie Chaplin, Samuel Goldwyn,
Walt Disney, David o. Selznick and
Reliance Pictures as major contr1ou-
tors to the 1886 program Of United
Artists. Under the terms of his agree
ment with that company he will be
given complete freedom over story,
cast, director and production policies,
and will operate as a separate pro-
ducing unit distributing through

the interviewer in her tower suite at

dainty blue lounging pajamaS and
gold kid sandals. BY coincidence, the
suite is the same occupied by Doug
las Fairbanks few days ago while en-
route to join Lady Ashley in London.
"As to the Douglas Fairbanks and
Lady Ashley romance, Miss Pickford
quickly dismissed the subject with the
statement that she would not discuss
1t. and, Furthermore, never will.
MY feeling toward Mr.. Fairbanks
Is friendly and I expect it will remain
so, but, as for Lady Ashley, I have
nothing to say she added wistfully.
NO, do not mind answering these
questions. I am as used to it as am
to breathing-but let's get back to

Some day I would like to switch
the searchlght on other communi-

day I would like to line up so aver

marry them to one another, and, one

II am sure many sensational hap

read such stories before. It's
about a little unknown girl
L L who became film star al
most overnight. It's about an adven-
turous young Irishman who, after
roaming the world seeking excitement,
played a bit in a picture, and then
few more bits in other pictures. and
finally was given the most coveted
role in Hollywood. You've read the
story in magazines hundreds of times
You didn't believe it, because it was
fiction.
This isn't a fiction story, although
the plot is as old as the film industry
The characters are real people.
The girl is Olivia de Havilland
who until year ago was high school
student in Saratoga, Calf.
The young Irishman is Enrol Flynn
boxer for England in the 1928 Olympic
games, pearl fisherman. sailor and
New Guinea gold prospector.
They were the most bewildered and
envied couple in Hollywood today.
For Miss de Havilland Is to play
the part of Arabella in Warner Bros
First National production of Rafael
Sabatini's Captain Blood" And
Flynn will play Capt. Peter Blood,
the swashbuckling hero.
Why we're these two given the roles
that every young actress and actor in
Hollywood wanted?
William Shakespeare, though he has
been dead these many years, was re-
sponsible in Miss de Havilland's case

beautiful face and figure and a
burning ambition to act. Just after
she was graduated from high school
