Civic Speaks Right Up
Names Day Tuttle as Director;
Seeks Belasco on Lease

Out of the silence which has en-
veloped it since May, the Civic The
ater emerges today to announce the
return of Day Tuttle as director and
to add the startling news of nego-
tiations for q seasons lease on the
Belasco Theater. Mr.. Tuttle, abb
sent for two years, during which
F. Cowles Strickland served as di-
rector, will be remembered as the
energetic person who presided at
the nativity of Civic and directed
its destinies during its first season.
He also has made himself a con-
siderable reputation as playwright,
actor and producer.
Less specific is the theater's an
nouncement with reference to the
presentation of Civic productions at
the Belasco, but the implications are
that only formalities remain to be
settled.
In the profession Tuttle is best
known as director of the famous
Westchester Playhouse, Mount Kis-
co, N. Y. Since assuming that
position in 1882 he has presented
81 productions, directed more than
so of them and has built the theater
into one of the leading summer
houses in the country. Virtually all
of the outstanding stars of both
stage and screen who are interested
in summer theater work have ap-
peared in Westchester productions.
Last season Tuttle added to his
stature as a producer when he, with
Cherryl Crawford, presented Judith
Anderson in Family Portrait" In
New York. The play, dealing with
the life story of Christ, was one Of
the outstanding offerings OF the
year.
Tuttle has had acting experience
with companies of the Theater
Guild, Walter Hampden and Ethel
Barrymore; was actor and assistant
director, Lobero Theater, Santa Bar
bara, Calf, 1926-1930.
Tuttle has written Lost Empire"
the Santa Barbara fiesta play, in
1890; mo Answer" produced at Yale
Theater and Lake Placid Theater
in 1896, at Nora Bayes Theater, New
York, in 1888. His 'Tenting To-
night" written the past year, is as
yet unproduced.

His Girl Friday
Gets Under Wav

While finishing touches are being
put on the settings created for
Howard Hawks new Columbia pro-
duction, "His Girl Friday" an out
standing cast is being engaged for
the comedy. Cary Grant and Ralph
Bellamy, the team that made screen
history in "The Awful Truth" head
the cast of principal players.
In addition to these players roles
have been assigned Gene Lock-
hart, Clarence Kolb and John
Qualen.
Known as one of the foremost
character actors in Hollywood Lock-
hart has a part which compares
favorably with the starring roles.
The picture is based on an orig
inal play by Ben Hecht and Charles
Macarthur.

Says Screens
Bogey>Man
Humphrey Bogart
Will Even Jump
For a Mouse
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
The toughest guy on the screen
always screams when mouse
crosses his path.
Humphrey Bogart is about the
meanest customer who ever sneered
into camera lens. He's a killer,
a slugger, an migrate, a double
crosser and a rat in his film roles.
But away from pictures:
I'm a little different" Bogart
admits. "And I enjoy being differ
ent. The contrast is a relief Take
a mouse, for example. You'll have
to take it because I refuse to have
any truck with mice. If one catches
me unexpectedly it's almost a Ger
tainty that I'll screech and leap onto
a chair"
Bogart has cut so many notches
in his prop" six-shooter that he
has whitfield away the entire butt.
Many of those notches account for
the passing of fine gentlemen. There
was Leslie Howard, in "Petrif1ed
Forest" whom Bogart plugged with
out compunction because Howard
asked for it. He has just finished
a neat job of perforating James
Cagney in Warner Bros The
Roaring Twenties," and now he is
oiing up the old roscoe again for
q bit of neat shooting g-it-out with
George Raft in Invisible Stripes" I"
Bogart does not want to be mis-
understood. He is not a coward OUT
side his film roles, but there are
several disquiting things, living and
in still life, that annoy him to the
point of irritation. He chooses to
call them phobias.
He cannot look down from high
window without an urge to Jump.
Should he cut finger while shaving
the sight of the blood gives him a
| feeling Of faintness.
Gold chills ripple up my back
when I step too close to a snake.
never step on spiders because it
will bring on rainstorm. I'm that
superstitious." said Bogart.
Bogart has never been held up
by bandits and he hopes he never
will be. He is sure he knows what
he would do-reach higher than
any other human ever has reached
before.
If he sees a burglar crawling
through the front window he knows
that he ought quietly to call the
police and remain out of sight until
the police arrive Should such an
| event materialiZe he doubts that he
will have time to complete his we'll
laid plans.
Instead" he apologized, "1'n prob
ably be through the back window
before my unwelcome guest navi-
gates the front window I doubt,
furthermore, that will have pres
ence of mind enough to slam the
door behind me and in the face of
the guy who likes our silver"

the most self-deprecatory laughs
this side of Texas.
A complete absence of seH-con-
sciousness also is evident in Miss
Sheridan's estimate of her contact
with the New York press several
days ago. OF that, which is q sort
of ordeal by fire from all sides, Miss
Sheridan says simply:
They had me talking to myself"
Miss Sheridan probably returned
the compliment, but she is the kind
of person who would not know about
that.
That Miss Sheridan does not
fancy herself as perfection's hand
maiden as an entertainer, which is
very engaging attitude to find in
such pretty lady, is evident in her
reaction to her second performance
on Friday. Her jitters, super
special variety, were worse at that
show than at the opener and Miss
Sheridan found herself somewhat
at odds with the orchestra On her
first vocal number. Was she aghaSt?
Was she mortified? She was not.
Instead, she began to laugh at her
self. 1t struck her as funny, which
should give you an idea why it is
easy for her to go along on the
publicity departments omph note
The notion that it was a good joke
on her enabled her to relax and
ever since then personal appear
ances have not bothered her in
the slightest.
AS a matter of fact, she likes
them. And, odd though it may
sound, one of the reasons she likes
them is that, gadding about the
country, she is able to wear mad"
clothes.
This department dares to define
mad clothes" only in Miss Sheri-
dams words, that they are clothes
designed with no thought of camera
angles or of how she will look in
conformity with her publicity pat
tern. She looked fine, thank you.

The legend that no one can make
a good picture with a Hollywood 10
Gale, a legend which persists in spite
of "A Star Is Born" can't stop Dar-
ryl Zanuck. The degree to which
it cannot stop him, and the word
is out that it is very significant
degree, will be demonstrated to a
specially invited audience this after
noon when Hollywood Cavalcade"
is screened.
Hollywood Cavalcade" is the his
tory of the movies, a triple-plated
romance, in that it deals with not
merely the love affairs of three men,
bers of the cast, but the romance of
tiny hamlet that grew into a world
renowned city and that of an art in
dustry which vitality affected the
whole human species.
It is the most spectacular under
taking in Mr.. Zanuck's career, an
elaborate, fast-moving lesson in
history, an effort to prove that
drama, like charity, begins at home.
The Circle Theater will serve as
the arena for the affair, which Is
being arranged by Sam Wheeler, the
studios ambassador plenipotentiary
to Washington.
And tonight, praise Heaven and
the Lunts, the season finally opens

own confession she would like to do
the sort of screen work that Bette
Davis does. If there Is anything
farther from oomph, Heaven be
praised, this department has not
heard of it and is blissful in its
ignorance.
Over, shall we say, breakfast, with
the drama press, Miss Sheridan gave
no evidence Of being a martyr to
publicity departments nightmare.
On the contrary, she seems to be
taking everything with a spirit of
zest and confidence that the end
will be of her own making. She has
been elevated to a box Office stature
that makes her an asset to a great
many pictures and that means an
opportunity to meet and learn from
some of the cinema's best players.
A smart girl, as well as a big and
pretty one, is Annie-which is what
her friends call her in spite of its
unoomphish sound.
Texas most spectacular gift to rhe
Republic, with the possible exception
Of Jack Garner. is a breezy, easy
going, articulate red-headed item
who obviously does not believe all
she reads about herself in the papers.
One of the quickest intimations of
that was her off-hand comment on
her statement that she would like to
emulate Miss Davis.
