The Great Waltz Returns to
National Theoter

If a shiny capacity audience in
orchestra, balcony and gallery
can be used as proof that the
public knows and loves good
music, then the National has
scored its point. Rounds of spon-
taneous applause welcomed the
return Of Max Gordon's produc-
ton THE Great Waltz" Many
times chorus and principals were
forced to reappear.
OutpouringS of the full beauty
of the Strauss melodies so last
ing, so lovely to hear, brought a
treat not to be missed. The
show has been freshly costumed
and the bold coloring of the
maSSed ensembles makes for an
equal treat for eye as well as ear.
Indeed, scene after scene unfold

now speaks with the Magic
Voice of the Screen" Installa-

High Fidelity Sound System was
completed yesterday, after the
engineer crew had worked nearly
48 hours straight in order not to
interrupt the theater schedule.
The new sound system embodies
the latest developments in sound

Shearer horn, recently perfected
by Douglas Shearer, brother of
actress Norma Shearer, and him.
self one of the leading motion pic

This new horn was the very last
piece of equipment installed-it
arrived via special car just in
time for the first show yesterday.
This is the Identical equipment

and is being installed in new
theaters throughout the country.

Symphony For
The RioIto

"The Robber Symphony" will
have its premiere showing in
Washington at the Rialto Theater,
Saturday, April 8.
Costing 100000 to produce,
three years in the making, nine
months were spent at the Cote
d'Azure, the High Alps in France,
the mountains of the Tyrlo, and
the Mar de Glace, Mont Blanc,
the interiors we're made at the
Sound City studios, England, the
musical score was composed by
Frederick Feher, the score played
by the London Symphony Orches-
ira of 110 pieces.
The world premiere was held
at the Queens Hall. London, Eng
land, under the sponsorship OF
Her Royal Highness the Duchess
of Kent, who is the wife Of the
Kings younger brother. In Venice
it was sponsored by Her Royal
Highness Princess Di Piermonte,
where the "Exposizione Interna'
tional D'Arte Cinematografica"
awarded the medal of honor as
one of the 10 best pictures pro-
duced in the entire world in 1886.
For the presentation at the
Rialto Theater Frederick Feher
will bring a full symphony orches-
ira to Washington, he will per-
sonally conduct excerpts from
"The Robber Symphony-he is
also responsible for the musical
score which is typical Viennese.
The orchestra will play three
times daily, one matinee and twice
daily.
Coming to Washington from
Vienna, the three leading players
of 1.-THE Robber Symphony
Makda Sonia, celebrated Viennese
dramatic actress; Hans Feher,
and Sultan, the dog, who has a
very important part in the picture.
They will appear at each perform
ance with the presentation.

New Civic Theoter Play Has
An All Girl Lineup

The all-feminine cast for "Girls
in Uniform" which the Washing.
ton Civic Theater will present for
it's sixth bill at the Wardman
Park Theater beginning Wednes-
day night, is heading into the
home stretch of rehearsals under
the direction of Constance Connor
Brown, director of the Studio of
Theater Arts.
Two young actresses are alter
nately playing the leading role
of Manuela, because each is so
well suited to the part that Miss
Brown has decided to give them
both a chance. These girls are
Virginia Phelan and Mary 10 Day.
Miss Phelan began her acting ca
reer by playing Lady Macbeth
and Elizabeth the Queen in high
school productions in Clarendon,
Va. From there she went on to
Northwestern University at Evans

added the role of Mary of Scot

Miss Day mas appeared with
the Columbia Players and has
been active all season on the crew
for the Civic Theater. Another
important player in "Girls in Uni
form" will be Amy Veerhoff, who
will have the role Of Fraulein Won
Bernberg.
Lois Hutchins, an actress with
stock experience in Chicago, will
play the head of the school, who
sets the tone for the entire play.
The part Of the grand duchess

This will be Katharine Cornell
night at the White House with
the stage star as dinner guest, fol-

Sented with Chi Omega's National
Achievement Award.
The presentation will be made
in the East Room by Mrs. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, to be followed
with addresses by Mrs. Eleanor
Robson Belmont and Alexander
Woollcott.
Miss Cornell will suspend her
play, "WingleSS Victory" for one
performance to make the Wash

SEVENTH HEAVEN DUE
A late switch in booking will
bring Seventh Heaven" to the
Capitol Theater screen on Friday
instead of Personal Property"
Seasoned moviegoers will have
chance for comparison, since it
was in 1927 that Charles Farrell
and Janet Gaynor appeared in
this idyl about that very generally
remarkable fellow, Chico, and his
lovely Diane.
Seventh Heaven" rode Janet
Gaynor to movie glory and did
almost as much for Charlie Far
rell. They never had a picture to
touch it in popularity, and Direc.
tor Frank Borzage has been in the
money ever since.
In the 1887 version, Diane will
be played by the little pouter,
Simone Simon, and the Chico will
be James Stewart. Henry King is
the director.
The only real reminder of the
success of a decade ago will be
the inclusion of Emo Rapee's
theme song, Diane" which has
been retained for the new picture.

/ hero worshipper she brings him
q bowl of noodle soup, charms him
with her naive flattery, suggests
that he return to the stage in
Antony and Cleopatra. When Rex
Duncan manages to elude his
nurses, in pajamas with his pet
violin he makes for the West End
Avenue home of the Schwartzes.
It is here that matchmaking
Mamma Schwartz, disappointed
actress, endeavors to interest him
in Camille, first as a dramatic
coach, then as Suitor. Very
soon Camille has an engagement
ring, has been promised the role
of Cleopatra for her stage debut.
Papa Schwartz refuses to mix in
to the romance, tries to sell his
furs, play solitaire and yearns for
the peace that enveloped the
household before the movie star
became a boarder.
There is an amusing benefit
scene in which Antony and
Cleopatra try out some OF Shake
speare's lines, and the harum-
scarum is untangled when Holly
wood rescues it's missing satellite
and Camille decides she really
prefers her All-American tackle.
DENNIE MOORE, GOOD
Hitch Your Wagons" best mo-
ments seemed to be when Dennle
Moore was playing the young in
nocent, Camille Schwartz. She is
charming little actress with the
happy faculty of being able to
simulate the unsophiStication Of a
sheltered apartment dweller who
seldom got to town, but read all
the fan magazines. In impolite
language, a simple little Slob, with
no big ideas in her head until
mama put them there.
George CurZon, polished Eng
lish actor, plays the befuddled
star. He lacked for this critic, the
gusto and voice for q farceur and
hardly realized the full value OF
lines and business written into the
Rex Duncan role.
Dora WeiSsman did well as a
matchmaking mamma and Jo-
Seph Greenwald was a delight as
Papa Schwartz. Mary I. Wickes
made the most of some of the plays
best wisecracks, and Kenneth Rob-
erts, Robert x. williams and Mil
licant Green were others who
served eXcellently.
The new comedy employs some
Of the Grand Hotel" flash tech
nique and most of it retarded the
play as much as it progressed the
plot.
Hitch Your Wagon" was well
received by a capacity house last
night, but it will be talked about
more for its daring similarity to
reality, than for its merits as
farce.

lScore consisting of melodies from
both StrausseS, the musical end
of the production easily overshad-
ows all else. Stanley Harrison, in
the sort of role often played by
George Hassell, is given little
chance.
Moulded along lines Of the once
popular opera bouffe, the produc-
tion upholdS all sacred traditions,
including the ballet, always def
mite part Of these affairs. The
opening Of the second act enables
one Vivian Fay to lead group of
lovely ballerinaS through routine
of blush-tinted grace.
FLASHY FINALE
The contralto voice of Miss Ruth
Altman as the Countess Olga car
ried her over some of the ineffi-
cheney displayed in her acting.
Given lines, it is true, that were
forced and stilted, Miss Altman
seemed lacking in the fundamental
graciousness the part called for.
OF the rest Of the large COM
pany Charles Romano, John Early
and Sam Mann proved convincing
in their parts. Romano as the
elder Strauss impaired a quiet dig
nifty to all his lines that proved
fine contrast in his scenes with
Robertson.
The much publicized finale, with
it's use of the entire stage to form
it's picture, is very lavish. How
ever, it is a pity that with the
Stupendous manner in which the
rest of the production is displayed,
a larger orchestra was not en-
ployed. The Beautiful Blue Dan
ube, saved for the very ending,
should have filled the house swell
ing its rich clear harmonies as the
curtain comes down. DIN.
