ton pictures, and members of the
Indiana Indorsers of PhotoplayS at
luncheon in the Lincoln yeSter-
day, said the problem of good pic
lures long since had been solved.
Trial and error methods have dis
closed that the most powerful
"press agentry' is local Endorsement
and promotion.
The speakers chief mission was
to acquaint his audience with the
forthcoming film version of Romeo
and Juliet" to be released in August
or September, with Norma Shearer
and Leslie Howard as the immortal
lovers.
Research Preceded Filming
Months of research in Verona,
minute measurement and copying
of buildings, streets and gardens,
and construction of miniature sets
preceded the actual filming, Mr..
Kiesling said. He cited the adapt
ability of Shakespeare to the screen,
ard said that fewer deletions have
been made in the text than for any
stage presentation.
Mr.. Kiesling admitted a lack of
personal magnetism in screen
drama, but called attention to the
fuidity, quick change of scene and
mood, and magnitude of presenta-
ton impossible in any other medium.
Romeo and Juliet" when it fin
ally appears in pictures, promises to
be a combination of Shakespeare's
genius, American technical pro-
ficiency and British stage tradition.
Of the large cast of principals,
which includes besides Miss Shearer
and Mr.. Howard, Basil Rathbone,
Ralph Forbes, Reginald Denny, G.
Aubrey Smith, John Barrymore and
Edna May Oliver, all but the last
two were born in the British En-
pire.
The speaker quoted Prof. William
Strunk of Cornell University, tech
nical adviser for the production, who
claimed that motion picture versions
of Shakespeare will gain new
Shakespearean readers. The case
of David Copperield," Mr., Kiesl-
ing said, proves this assertion. He
was told by the head of the Cleve-
land Public Library that before work

II dusty copies of the Dickens classic
on the library shelves. But between
the pictures announcement and it's
completion, the library was forced
to buy "a additional copies.
In Detroit, Mr.. Kiesling continued
the public school library purchased
400 volumes of David Copperfeld"
to meet the demand created by the
picture, and at that rate, they are
preparing to purchase 1000 copies

Mr.. Kiesling paid tribute to the

of the pioneers in its field AS a
sideline to his work as Shakespear-
can press agent, he is helping to

School Acting Of

Times Special
HOLLYWOOD, May 20.-Warren
William was quite an actor back
in his high school days in Mime
sofa, according to the actors Latin
teacher, Miss A. M. McMullin, who
visited Mr.. William here.
"He was brilliant scholar, and
I recall his very effective and in
dividual sort of acting in school
plays" the teacher said. What
ever he was portraying, he put into

Actor FIinches at
Robinson's ScowI

Times Special
HOLLYWOOD, May 2o.-Because
an actor couldn't face Edward G.
Robinson's scowl, a scene in Bull
lets or Ballots" had to be retaken
several times.
The story called for Mr.. Robinson
to strike another actor after speak
ing several menacing words to him.
Each time the actor flinched before
Mr.. Robinson could strike him, and
the scene had to be retaken.
Tired of wasting time, the Little
Caesar" actor omitted several lines
from his script, and struck his fell
low player sooner than the latter
expected. The missing lines will
continue to be missed, and the di-
rector declared the action was per-
feet.

The play itself is one which elicitS
favorable audience reaction. The
audience appeared to appreciate
the informality which makes 1t a
part of the cast as members OF the
jury. The speeches are directed at
the audience, rather than to cast
members.
1.-The Trial of Mary Dugan" is
the trial of a show girl charged
with murder of her lover. Alice
Arnold plays the difficult role of
defendant with keen Interpretation.
Her most difficult moments, it seems
are not when, on the witness stand,
she faces a belligerent prosecuting
attorney, but during the long peri
DDS when she sits beside her lawyer
listening to accusations of the prose-
cutor and damaging testimony by
witnesses.
If Miss Arnold tires during these
long stretches, she fails to show 1t,
and her actions are very much like
we believe defendants would be
under similar, but real, circum-
stances.
Play Roles Well
In the role of district attorney,
Jack Duval succeeds in arousing his
audience to reactions indicating he
is held in the same contempt all
officious stage and movie district at
torneys are expected to stimulate.
To his credit, he does not overdo a
good thing.
His court opponent, Jimmy Dugan,
brother of Mary, who dramatically
comes to the last-minute aid OF his
accused sister, is played we'll by Ned
LeFevre. Mr.. LeFevre does not seem
to lose his own identity in his role
quite as well as does MIR. Duval in
his, but his performance, neverthe-
less, is good.
AS the bereaved Mrs. Edgar Rice
widow of the man for whose murder
Mary Dugan is being tried, Mrs
Ricca Scott Titus plays well rather
difficult role.
Several witnesses, particularly two
show girl friends of the defendant
played by Betty Anne Brown anc
Ruth Benefiel, enliven the grim pro-
ceedings with somewhat undignifiec
conduct, and as French maid
Bernice Wood is sufficiently ig-
norant of American court customs tt
make her part the best comedy II
an otherwise serious drama.
Court Scene Realistic
A large cast of court assistants
reporters, witnesses, cleaners, spec
tators, stenographers and other
make the courtroom seem real, whil'
Judge Nash Ora B. Kleim preside
over it with dignity and ease.
1.-THE Trial of Mary Dugan" is no
reform" play. 1t makes no at
tempt to criticise the American lega
system, nor does it dwell on possible
faults in the social system which
might lead to murder. The author
Bayard WELLER, merely dramatizee
what might take place in any Grim
inal court any day of a murder trial
The result is an intense, powerful
melodrama.
