AL GOLDEN PHENOMENAL

Steps Out of Character to Provide

Al GOLDEN is best described by
the word phenomenal" for Al
Is a funny straight man" Normally
straight earns his union scale by
feeding lines to comedian, which
the latter, by proper retort, converts
Into laughs on the part Of customers.
Golden, however, steps out Of char
acter to provide a majority of the
amusing moments In the current Of
fering at Col. Lakes Gayety. Max
Coleman and Harry Bentley are COM
les OF record, Coleman being the more
consistent, but the boys are occu-
pied, for the most part, with No 2
fiddle. While Golden presents sew
eral Of the items with which he has
coaxed merriment on previous ap-
pearanoes, his narrator role Is nov
city.
No complaint can be registered
against the feminine contingent this
week, three revelatory experts Of Diff
fering charms and modes Of presenta-
tion furnishing the fullest measure
of pulchritude during the course Of
the show. Copper-tressed Diana Logan
is the headliner, with brunei Frances
McAvoy and blond, impish Mickey
Dennis contributing capable support
ing appearances
Claudia Ferris has been entrusted
with the featured dancer spot, and
the smiling lass scores on each num-
ber-her terpsichorean accomplish
ments are varied and complete. Ruth

Mr.. Golden is cared for adequately
by Charles Cornell and Chuck" Ar
thur-their activity is valuable and
well handled Arthur adds tap-danc-
ing numbers which measure up to the
best sent through by the Independent

lust let Friday come bouncing of

sweeter is coming to Loew's Capitol.
1t represents the first fusion of the art
of character portrayal which has es-
tablished its respective stars so high
in the heaven, of popularity.
AS such it ought to be good" in the
very finest box-of1lce sense of the
word
THAT quiet hum of people exchang-
ing ideas which hung over George
town early Sunday morning came
through the walls of Day Tuttle's
house. The Tuttles were entertaining
about half the cast Of Jane Eyre" :"
Viola Roache was there, giving a
mocking imitation of the part she
plays on the same stage with Kath-
arine Hepburn. Mr. and Mrs Tom
Powers were happily present. So was
the Tompkins family, one of whose
daughters played the child part in the
same drama because the usual player
was squeezed out by the local ban on
child labor on the stage. And Philippa
Bevan, Miss Reaches nice and talented
daughter. And ever so many other
people. They talked. ate delicious food,
talked some more, finally went home.
THE Burlesque Critics Association
(of America, Inc, one supposes)
is honoring reporters OF the less erotic
types Of entertainment with honorary
m cmbership in its ranks. Some of the
latter, accepting, are worried at re-
ports of the B. c. AS contemplated
sit-down strike, or something, unless
initiated reviews carry also the organi-
zation's initials.
AS counter coup detat, there is
contemplated the formation Of an
organization to be called The Asso-

Critics Association"
The thing can be compounded into
something pretty imposing in the way

which Edward Everett Horton, the
Kings talented stooge, finds the chorus
girl missing.
Where did she go?" screams
Horton.
ITO America" says the boarding
house managing director.
Which way is that?"
It is lots funnier the way Horton
does it than it sounds here, and the
audience fairly bellows at the humor
of it.
The length of the laugh, however,
is fatal to the next sentence in Hor-
tons speech, which is in effect an
answer to his own question:
Never mind, I'll ask a policeman"
A non-scriptual line in Grace
Moores last picture, When You're in
Love-" was just about the funniest
thing in it, but no audience ever got
"a laugh out OF it. So busy was it
being tickled to death at seeing her
do the Minnie the Moocher" number
that it never heard her say at the end
Of it:
rs my face red?" (And it was,
too
The camera is pretty much like
time and tide in its refusal to wait
for any man or woman to get through
laughing at something it has just
recorded. 1t is one of the handicaps
of the medium as compared with the
stage On the latter an actor can
and too many do-wait approximately
forever before he will be party to
one laughs slaughter of another. The
camera, however, grinds steadily on,
soullessly Indifferent to the genius OF
the script writer and to the art Of the
actor in front of 1t.
How do drama reporters hear these
lines out Of which audiences cheat
themselves by their uncontrolled
mirth? 1t Is very simple, really, and
has nothing to do with more acute
hearing as one might assume. The
drama lads and lassies hear and see
many pictures at more or less private
previews. They sit there, four or five
of them, quietly challenging perform
ers on the screen to make them laugh
hard enough that one explosion Of
mirth will destroy the next potential
one 1t happens, but not so often as
1t does when hundreds Of miscellaneous
persons get together between a pro-
lection booth and motion picture
screen.
In a way it is pretty nice tribute

New Problems at Camp.

HARDLY a training camp season
passes without our having at
least one pitcher who needs more
weight. Often a skillful pitcher has
to be lifted in the seventh inning be-
cause his stamina fades out.
Ten or say fifteen pounds probably
would make full-game pitcher out of
that type of player and I'd like to
urge all high school and college pitch
ers to keep that in mind. Because of
their youth, they take a lot out of
themselves if they don't have some
solid weight
And that applies to all players.
When Eric McNair was with US, we
worked harder to build up that gifted
player than any fatty ever hustled to
wear pillow off his waistline in the
old days. But we never could add more
than two or three pounds.
Like myself, he was naturally lean.
For a man of less than 160 pounds,
MCNair gets tremendous distance with
his bat. But how much better he'd
be if he could increase his weight to
40.
Of course, underweight players are
special problem. The real reason
why men report to camp today in
keen condition is the fact that base
