Miss Sands In
Solo Show

Dorothy Sands is the latest
diseuse to reveal her monodrama
talent on a Washington stage. At
the National Theater last night
she presented series of dramatic
canoes spanning the footlight art
from the Revolutionary era to the
present.
The Sands repertoire is as ver-
Satile as it is ambitious. From the
post-revolutionary theater she Of
fered q scene from Royal Tyler'S
THE Contrast" an interesting
character study of pioneer Amer
ican flapper. Then scenes from
the frontier theater in a mood so
extravagantly written and gestured
it seemed burlesque. The days of
40 served for an impression of
Lotta Crabtree in Little Nell and
the Warehouses"
Coming closer to the living the
aters a brief bit from Ethel Barry
more's Captain Jinks of the
Horse Marines" Miss Sands gets
the voice of the divine Ethel but
neither the beauty, the charm or
the now familiar mannerisms of
the Barrymore who flashed into
eminence in the Clyde Fitch play.
Neither does she succeed in giving
an approximate or convincing por-
trait of the buxom and robust
blonde beauty that was Lillian
Russell's, though the Sands inter
polation of old-time ballads was
roundly encored.
In the realm of the cinema
Miss Sands offered Carlo, Theda
Bara and Mae West as they might
present an identical vamping
scene. Her Swede was frankly
terrible, one of those supposed
limitations that relies upon GAY
Tank Ay Go Home" and a stink
ing walk to guarantee it as close
to the genuine. AS Theda Bara of
the silent days Miss Sands proved
good pantomimist. A believable
carbon copy of the reigning vam-
pire, La West, was helped much
by crisp dialogue.
Before each presentation Miss
Sands offered explanatory intro
ductories and these interludes
were among the brightest parts
of her program. To sum up she
was much better than most of the
material she selected to reflect
her art.-A. r. K.

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 25.-Odd
bits of twitchery from the old
Greek philosopher: It is begin
ming to look very much as though
Ernst Lubitsch will not direct
Marlene Dietrich in her next Para
mount picture. It would seem
that, first of all they have not
been able to find a suitable story
and also that his new position as
production head keeps him so
busy that he will have to give his
megaphone to a successor.
At that I am not surprised
about their not finding story if
they have to suffer through the
reading of hundreds of scripts
only to find such as the following
pip: The cover of the script car
ried three classifications, namely
A, b and C. The A classified
ton read, This story has been
done thousands of times before,
but we feel we can give it a new

pretend to be a musical picture,

all during the time the Call

showed in while on location at
Mt. Baker, they were in great
danger. Principally because Lo-

ceiling was dented in by a snow
drift one morning, the water
pipes were frozen practically the
whole time so they had no hot

(Which was charming) and then,
to add to the discomfort of the
whole thing very few snow scenes
were shot because it was showing
so hard, the cameras couldn't
take the rap.
Speaking of the rigOrs of
the cinema: For a scene in
"It's a Small World" Wendy
Barrie was supposed to throw a
soapy dish over her shoulder
at Spencer Tracy, but as he
reached to catch it, it slipped
and cut him over the right eye
so badly they had to rush him
to the doctor for Is stitches.
The nice things about the
cinema folk are the ones most
rarely chronicled. In this par
ticular instance am sure every
one will be pleased to know that,
