New Sound.
ONE Of the most advanced steps 1

ONE Of the most advanced steps in
the recording of sound on motion
picture film taken during the last two
years was introduced October by the
Paramount studios, the first to adopt
the new recording system.
Consisting of a highly sensitized
microphone weighing only u ounces
and permitting the sound-mixer to sit
right on the edge of the camera line,
thereby giving him better chance to
catch the voice reactions Of the play
ers, the new device is the nearest ap-
proach to the natural ear yet invented.
Heretofore our recording system,
with its heavy 14-pound non-direc-
tional microphone. produced the same
effect as when one closes one ear en-
tirely," said Franklin Hansen, head of
the Paramount sound department.
THE new one. however, is as If
both ears are functioning. AS it is
now we must follow each player as he
moves across the set. The new one
will catch sounds from any direction.
To-day our sound mixer sits in an
inclosed booth far removed from the
set. In order to modulate the sounds
he must pick them up as they go from
the microphone to the recording room,
and so far earphones have not been
satisfactory.
The new system, on the other hand,
permits the mixer to use earphones,
thereby doing away with the cumber-
some booths and enabling him to sit
directly out Of the camera line in close
proximity to the players"
According to Hansen, months of re,
search by engineers and weeks Of labor
by expert electrical scientists have
brought the range of photo-audio-fre-
quency up to almost the perfect point.
Proof of the worth of the new re-
corder will be first evident in Bing
Crosbys new musical film, Anything
Goes" in which he Is being starred
with Ethel Norman.

Army as exposed in Paths of Glory"
Gen Assolant, in Sidney Howard's
play, is soldier, as Othello and Iago
are, born and bred to bear arms and
to fight for what used to be known as
their country's sake, Educated in pa
triotism and the courage thereof, he
has no thought but victory at whatever
cost. Unlike the gentle and polite,
though efficient and courageous United
States warriors trained at West Point,
he is for death and devastation, giving
no quarter either to the enemy or to
his own forces. A thousand French
bellies disemboweled by German bayo-
nets mean nothing in his aife if by
the sacrifice of their viscera an objec-
tive can be taken. The stencil, the
Nth, the misery, the hunger, the de-
spair, the wounds and the death Of his
troops leave him cold as he steps on
them on his way to glory. When they
fail to conquer the Pimple. an uncon-
querable enemy redoubt, he unloosens

No Visitors.
are seldom welcome on

VISITORS are seldom welcome on
any motion picture set, but they
are doubly barred from the R-K-O
stage. where Seven Keys to Baldpate"
is being filmed. The usual purpose of
excluding sightseers is to avoid in
terruptions, but in the case of the
current Gene Raymond feature there
is more unique reason. The visitors
are to apt to brush away a cobweb
or make unwanted footprints in the
snow.
To add the requisite air of desertion
to the big two-story "Baldpate Inn"
squad of effects men labored for
days with their mechanical spiders
and dust machines. Similarly, the
grounds outside were carpeted with
foot-deep layer Of snow which had
to be left intact through most of
the filming. The risk of some casual
sightseer spelling the decoration"
and thus delaying the picture brought
about the mo visitors" order.
