until films began to talk" he remarks.
"back and-white photography was quite suf-
ficient to portray story. However, since the
characters now speak, the drab film skaters
all Illusion. 1t gives the same effect as
stage play given in drab surroundings"
Most enthusiastic of them all, however is
Cooper, who plans to devote his entire time
to Whitney's enterprise as soon as he COM
pletes the two pictures called for by his present
R-K-O contract.
I'm my opinion the development of color
photography is of much greater value to the
film industry than was the development of
sound" he declares. There is so much that
can be done with color film that the field
really is unlimited. And now that Technicolor
has perfected its three color process 1t is pos
sible to accomplish things we couldn't even
approach before.
Perhaps I should correct the false i'm
preston many persons seem to have that
with this new process we will be able to
photograph all colors just as they are seen
with the human eye. That may be done some
day. but it isn't possible now. However, we
can get on our film any color that an artist
can put on his canvas"
AS the first feature production following the
experimental La Cucaracha," Pioneer Pictures
is making Becky Sharp" adapted from Will
liam Makepeace Thackeray's Vanity Fair"
with Miriam Hopkins and Frances Dee in the
leading roles
Filmed at a cost of about $3.50 900, this pic
ture now is being cut and edited. It will be
released early in the Spring. Then Mr.. and
Mrs. Public will decide whether the era of
color films actually is upon us.
Timing this picture in color increased its
cost about $150,OOO. Whether this addi-
tiona expense was warranted will be deter
mined by the public's response.
OF course, as the number of color films in
creases the additional cost will be materially
lessened. In fact, If the entire industry turns
to color pictures this mass production Of the
film will bring its cost down very close to the
present price Of black and white film.
Every possible care was taken during the

production Of Becky Sharp" Weeks were
photographer for the Technicolor Corp was

which is more than twice as large as the
ordinary movie camera because Of the neces-
sity for handling three strips of film instead
of one
These strips Of film, one each for the three
primary colors, are run through the camera
simultaneously. The various colors filter through
prisms' and are picked up by the strips of
film to which each is sensitive. The three
films then are laid one on top of another
and exposed to negative which picks up the
various shades resulting from the combinations
of the three primary colors.
From all indications, Becky Sharp" will be
the last word in color photography. But. even
though it should be greeted with tremendous
public enthusiasm, the film industry still must
solve many problems before color photography
will be completely mastered.
For one thing, flood Of pictures containing
bad color schemes in sets or costumes soon
would cause the public to demand the return
of black white films. Another and COM
sderably more difficult problem will be the
mastering of out-of-doors photography. So
far color film has been used almost entirely
on studio stages, where the lighting and back
grounds can be controlled. But the movie
industry can't move indoors entirely And
sunlight can't be controlled. Consequently it
will be necessary to evolve some method of
getting results in natural surroundings.
Nearly every person who has made any
study whatever of the new color process de-
clares, however, that 1t Is only question OF
time until all of these problems are solved
just as the various problems confronting sound
engineers have been solved.
Evening star., 1935-01-27

THE reason I am so sure color pictures
Will prove popular Is that all persons definitely
are color conscious. We see color all the time
with our own eyes. Consequently it stands
to reason that we will get greater enjoyment
out OF a motion picture filmed in natural
color than we do out of one made in shades
OF black and white. The addition of color will
bring to life characters which now are only
shadows.
Frankly, I don't believe the poor reception
previously given to color pictures in the past
means thing. Those productions did not
give us anything even approaching natural
color. Hence they were bound to meet with
public diSapproval."
\A/HITNEY, who looks far more like man
you would expect to find leading fast
social life than he does like level-headed
business man. is emphatic in his declaration
that to him the production of pictures is q
serious business and not mere pastime.
Several reasons prompted him to enter this
field. First of all, he believes it to be good
business venture which will return large
profit on his investment. He is sold on the
idea of opening a road to new field. And
he Is firm in his belief that this field will be
permanent one in the ceuloid industry.
Nor is he alone in that thought.
Karl Struss, last years winner of the Acad-
emy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
photography award, says, Hollywood hasn't
begun to touch the possibilities of color pho
tography. I believe that eventually all pictures
will be in color, although not with the system
now in USE"

the motion picture -
business-so now Whitney is
deavoring to lead the film industry
to color photography. I
Muddled as that statement may n -
sound, it nevertheless is correct. ~
Since the time he was known IN
as Little jock" whitney has been W.
a fervent movie fan. About two ~TE~
years ago Merriam c. Cooper then
production head of the R-K-O
studio tried to interest him in be- "
coming film producer. Several
deals were discussed but none OF &
them stirred up much enthusiasm
on Whitneys part. Then Walt
Disney made The Three Little
Pigs" with the newly-perfected
three-color Technicolor film.
That changed the young millionaire's whole
attitude toward the picture business. Here
something new-something which, II
properly developed, would sweep the entire
industry.
I'm ready now, if we can make a deal
with Technicolor to use its new process in the
production of color films" Whitney wired to
Cooper, following that wire on the first train.
Immediately after his arrival in Hollywood,
Whitney organized Pioneer Pictures, with him.
self as president, and closed deal for the
use of Technicolor film. Cooper, now retired
from active management of R-K-O to become
associate producer for that firm, became
which was to pioneer in the production of
Coored motion pictures
OF COURSE, there is nothing particularly
new about color films They have been
made for the last 10 years or more though never
in any great quantity Due to the poor quality
of color. the public has continued to show
a decided preference for the established black
and-white Aim.
Whitney, however. believes that with the
improved three-color process, which makes
possible the photographing of any color that
can be obtained by an artist, color films will
rapidly replace today's standard black-and-
white photography. And he is ready to back
this belief with his tremendous fortune.
Numerous conferences resulted in the de-
cision to experiment with a short subject to
determine the public's reaction to really good
color on the screen. The now famous La
Cucaracha" was the result. And it proved
beyond doubt that the public not only will
accept but will welcome motion pictures done
in truly natural colors. Costing $67OOO a
heretofore unheard-of sum for a tWo-reel film
this picture already has returned a sZeable
profit-and it was released only six months ago.
Il am thoroughly convinced that the era of
color films is here" Whitney declares. within
five years color photography will have replaced
the present black-and-white films throughout
the industry. Progress for the next year or
TWO necessarily will be slow, as there still is
a great deal of experimenting to be done
Our own program for the coming year calls
Tor only four features. These will be made
with the greatest care, both as to quality
OF photography and general entertainment
values After they have been released I am
confident there will be general speeding up
OF production on color films

A meeting of the District Recre-

by Senator William H. King, chair
man of the Senate District Com
mittee, was postponed because of
the absence from the city of
Frederic A. Delano, nonvoting
chairman of the body.
Senator King requested the COM
mittee members to meet with him
and explain their plans for the
coordination of District recreation
facilities. The legislator ques-
toned the legality of the body,
which is composed of an official
of the Board of Education. the
District government, and of the

It was said the session probably

Just Too Much
For the Shad
It's the herring now.

Keeping track of the process
sion Of fish which annually
make their appearance in local
waters is getting to be some
thing of a game with the Gov
ernrhent's fish experts.
According to the Bureau of
Fisheries, the recent cold snap,
which lowered the Potomac's
temperature some ten degrees
in as many days, has slowed
the agile shad, recent arrival,
down to a walk" On this sub
ject, M. C. James, Assistant
Chief of Fish Culture, has this to
say:
"They are still being caught,
but sparingly."
White perch, whose arrival
was recorded early in March,
are still present and are sharing
honors with the herring as the
anglers current attraction. So,
too, are the yellow perch, great
numbers of which have been
released recently from the Gov
eminent hatchery at Fort Bel
voir.
Again, according to Mr..
James, you might not get what
you came for, but you'll get
something.
Unless, of course, you're one
of those unfortunates who
never have any luck!"
