For years ambitious youngsters
have been arriving in Hollywood
with energy and the ability to back
it up. Penniless, many of them
have 'breakaway' suits with shiny
pants, one change of laundry and
indigestion from eating the wolf at
the door All they want, they as
sure you, is break" said McCarey
They get the break, and their
acting often suffers, the director
maintains. Too many become con-
ceited, dictatorial, selfish and dead
loss to the casting office.
Three years ago a studio dis
covered lad who promised much.
The company paid his back bills,
bought him complete wardrobe,
sent for his mother so that the two
might be together, settled a COM
Portable cash sum on him, and as
sured him a good salary
"At first the boy took it right
Then the comparative luxury got
to- him; his ambition went out the
window, his fire sputtered and died,
and he became major problem.
"A few weeks ago this same youth
refused to work a few minutes after
5, though by refusing ne cost his
company $4,000. Starving's too
good for an actor like that"
McCarey said he disagrees with
Ernest Hemingway, who once pro-
posed the Punishment of all writer's
to Siberia, where, through the
hardships they experienced before
they succeeded, they might recap
ture some of their early sincerity
and enthusiasm. McCarey would
call back all the writer's, because he
considers them the backbone of the
picture industry, and send the
actors in their place.
ION second thought, don't think
I'd do that either" he concluded.
After all, what have I got against
Siberia?"

George Raft, Rosalind Russell,

the preview of Rupert Hughes
1T Had to Happen" in which
they appeared.
Only a very few of the stars,
such as Dietrich, stay away from
the public previews of their pic
lures.
Dietrich's latest picture, Desire"
went back to the cutting room
after its test showing here. Some
of the critics who managed to be
present didn't care for the picture
and their reactions we're respon-
sible for the revision. They also
were responsible for Dietrich's
terrific headache the following
day.
These previews occur out here
nearly every night. However, big
premieres at $3.50 a seat only hap
pen about once in two years. Then
the movie fans line up on the
street outside of the theater to get
a closeup look of the Hollywood
parade. They can see the picture
the next day for so cents. The
Chaplin Modern Times" pre-
miere few weeks ago was one
of these super occasions.

Mr. Weber drew upon Bach,
Handel and the moderns for his
program, except for a transcription
of Wagner's "Traeume" in his last
group. He displayed amazing manual
and pedal facility and a tasteful
discrimination of color in registra-
ton. Technically, he always was
master of the situation, avoiding q
sin of many organists who plunge
into a difficult piece and are swept
away in a millStream of velocity.
Best of the first group were the
Bach Prelude and Fugue in G.
Major and the Allegro from Han
dels Fourth Concerto. Extreme
clarity of voice leading and buoy
ancy of rhythm characterized both,
while careful phraSing added variety.
Clokey's arrangement of an old
PaStorale was played with delights
ful grace and lightneSS.
Edmundson Group Included
Much of the program was taken
up by group of the Americans
composer, Garth EdmundSon. The
pieces were of varying worth, with
interesting development of ideas,
strong rhythms and vivid colors
contrasting with arid and apparent-
ly interminable stretches. The
scores difficulties were played with
conSummate skill.
A Vierne Impromptu, Karg- Elert's
impressionistic Landscape in MIST
and the Finale from Widor's Sec
ond Symphony, which closed the
program, were especially we'll done.r
For encores, Mr.. Weber added as
divergent pair as Daquin's lie
Coucou," played as delicately as If
on an old French clavecin for which
it was written, and Wagner's Ride
of the Valkyries," truly a war
horse" in more ways than one.
Enjoyment of an otherwise bril-.
liant recital, was marred by the in
depreciation of the Bach chorale,
20 Man, Bemoan Thy Sins," and
the Wagner "Traeume"; the first
because of sentimentality which
robbed the work of it's dignity, and
the second because of a meandering
freedom" that amounted to rhyth-
mic diSintegration.
These moments, however, were
f1eeting, and the prevailing impress
sion was of highly gifted and in
telligent performer. Thanks to the
Guild, the audience was reminded
that the organ has its place as a
concert instrument, as we'll as in
Sunday services.

ChaIiapin Jr. Starts
Work in Film Studio

By United Press
HOLLYWOOD, March 4.-Feodor
Chaliapin Jr., son of the noted
Russian singer, today started work
in studio research department in
hopes of becoming a producer.
The blond youth who once wanted
to be an actor said his accent forced
him to turn to production with the
advent of sound. He had appeared
in several silent films.
Chaliapin was actor, film editor,
assistant director and producer in
France and Germany, but returned
to America to learn all about pic
lures"
American pictures are the best,
and I was happy to receive this
Offer he said.

microphone, where they voiced
praise on Chaplin.
Loudspeakers carried their voices
both to the crowd on the streets
and inside the theater. The high
spot of the evening was Chaplin's
arrival with Paulette Goddard,
his new leading lady, on and off
the screen.
The stars drove up in long
limousines. Fat little pumpkin
taxis brought the Cinderellas, who
hoped to be seen and mistaken for
some celebrity. Amelia Earhart
was mistaken by many for Kath-
arine Hepburn.
There were SO many women in
the crowd who looked like stars
that one couldn't tell who was
who, and who was who's who

Children's Theater
to Staqe a Revue

Following in the footsteps of it's
kindred organization, the Civic The
alter, which recently presented a
muscal hit, Hold Your Hats" the
Children's Theater is to stage a mu-
steal revue April and IL.
Director Frederick Burleigh is to
hold tryouts today and tomorrow

cancers and singers are invited to
try out.

muller rated one of the bigger
hands of the evening. The little
Mexican spit-fire in white crepe
and sables was covered with dia-
mond bracelets from elbow to ell
bow and wore a huge pendant Of
diamonds and rubieS.
The New Deal probably could
use her to balance the budget. In
the excitement, Charles Boyer and
Edward Everett Horton slipped
into the theater unnoticed. Mary
Pickford and Doug Fairbanks both
stopped at the microphone-at
different times!
CHARLIES curtain speech be-
~ fore the showing of his
"Five-Year Picture" was better
than the film itself. He imper-
sonated Charles Skouras, movie
theater magnate, relating in a
"Parkyakakas" dialect his CONVEX
sation with Skouras regarding
the premiere.
According to Chaplin, Skouras
was of the opinion that Charlie
would have to make personal
appearance on the stage of the
theater, as the picture alone
wasn't worth the $3.50 admis-
sion price.
Premiere Notwithstanding, the
projection room was operating as
usual. In the middle of the show
ing the screen went dark for a
few minutes due to a break in
the film. However, the audience
didn't whistle or shout. They
probably assumed that it was
a new piece of Chaplin technique.
There was thunderous applause,
though, when Charlie sang on
the screen.
Whether it is just another pre-
view or a spectacular premiere,
all Hollywood turns out. The
sight of movie stars is still an at
traction to the average native
here.
1t gives the women chance to
gossip about what this and that
star wore and the youngsters an
opportunity to stay up late and
maybe snatch an autograph in
the bargain, although Holly
wood crowds are orderly COM
pared to those in New York and
other parts of the country.
AS for the men, we'll who
wouldn't walk a few blocks to
see a beautiful girl? There are
many at premieres.

NORMAN SEIGEL

The SearchllghtS used to be
reserved for the big pre-
mieres at Grauman's Chi
nese Theater in Hollywood,
but now you're apt to find
them in front of almost any
cinema.
The lights and huge BAN
ners hanging on the front
of the theater stating
Studio Preview Tonight"
are the only hint the pub
lie has of what will be pre-.
sented. The names of the pictures
to be shown are seldom known.
Often the people in the motion
picture industry don't know what
is going to be previewed.
The preview showing is the
studios method of testing a pic
ture for public reaction before it
is released throughout the coun-
try. The director and all of the
cast attend. So does the film di-
rector.
Often many changes are made
in the picture after it has had
its preview. Sometimes as much
as 1000 feet of film is cut. The
preview audiences see the first
draft of the picture.
DEOPLE also flock to the pub
IL tic previews, because they
know that a number OF movie
stars will be in the crowd and
they'll be able to see them in
person.
The studios try to keep secret
the name of the picture to be pre-
viewed, so that the critics won't
come to the show Critics seem
to be too occupied to take the
gamble that the public does.
The secrecy has reached the
state where a preview film is
rushed out of studio by motor
cycle messenger.
Preview audiences are different
than any others. When the prin-
cipal characters appear on the
screen, they cheer and applaud.
Often this form of reaction can
be embarrassing to star, par
ticularly if a "bit" player rates
a bigger hand
We sat behind Joseph Calleia,
the night his last picture, Tough
Guy" was being previewed. He
was Scrunched down low in his
seat, looking nervous. When he
first entered the action the crowd
applauded. But the woman who
sat next to us exclaimed in
voice I'm sure he heard, THAT
guy again-I don't like him."

L Y lar showing were Jackie
Cooper, Jean Hersholt, May Rob-
