acting, one likes to think, has pro-
crossed. Nevertheless, the venerable
operettas appear to flourish as fond
memories of q gayer Vienna, their
low-geared pace Is accepted creak-
ing comedy Of another day still con-

The Merry Widow" had a highly
successful summer season at Carne-
gle Hall, which probably led to the
decision to send 1t on tour.
Opened First in 1907.
In October, 1907 the New Amster-
dam Theater in New York was adj
vertising seats seven weeks ahead
for those who wanted to see Franz
Lehar's "The Merry Widow"
1t was presented by Henry W.
Savage, a big Boston real estate
dealer, whose ventures into show
business as side issue had proven
exceptionally prosperous. From the
famous "Floradora," he had plucked
a young man playing a minor role,
cast him as Prince Danilo. That
youth was Donald Brian, marvel of
grace as dancer, attractive in face
and figure, with personality which
made him Americas No. l matinee
idol. Ethel Jackson was Sonia, the
merry widow, or as Lehar called her,
die Lustige Witwe."
The movies, then in their swaddling
clothes and nourished mostly in
lickelodeons and dime palaces, were
not in the financial green fields OF
today, or they might have offered
Donald Brian a fabulous contract
Donald Brian received $500 a week

Time marches on, so the screen
tells us, and IS seasons later The

Brilliant Cast
Secured for
Chekhov Plav
National VIII House
C0rneWs Production
Of'Three Sisters

Katherine Cornell with her un-
trammelled freedom as actress-man-
ager has conceived for her current
theatrical season something of a
festival for playgoers with an I'M
usual cast and Russian comedy by
the world-famous Anton Chekhov
For this noted play, THE Three
Sisters" which Miss Cornell will
present at the National Theater
the week of November 80, she has
had the good fortune to secure as
her stage associates Judith Ander-
son, Edmund Gwenn, Ruth Cor
don, Dennis King, Gertrude Mus.
grove, Alexander Knox, Mckay Nor
ris, Tom Powers and Eric Dressler
These star-spangled players are at
forded by the playwright exceptional
opportunities for the vivid charac-
terizaticns dear to every actor and
SO richly and warmly the essential
charm of this play.
Its story is set in a provincial
town of Russia about 1900 and un-
folds the oddities. humors and
pathos of the conditions amid which
the various types of social groups
lived under the czarist regime. Each
OF the guests in the home of the
Prozoroff sisters has his own private
drama. but they are all encircled
about the romantic expectations and
ever-hopeful planning by the sisters
in realizing their dreams of a gayer
life in the big city, Moscow.
In the several love affairs de-
veloped by the poignant story, Chek-
hov involves the background Of
the Russia that was soon to flame
forth in upheaval. Amusing by his
painting of the picturesque indi-
viduality of this cross section OF
Muscovite society, Chekhov deepens
his vision by showing how such de-
feats Of personal happiness as his
men and women face are the result
of what now has been swept away
The play from one who admittedly
knew the Russians has been re-
garded as one of the finest expo
sitions of the inner soul of this
extraordinary people.
The production was directed BY
Miss Cornell's husband, Guthrie
McClintic. well known to the theater-
minded as director Of scores Of sue
cesses. Mr.. .McClintic also prepared
the text with the assistance Of Alex
ander Koiransky. q former dra-
matte critic Of Moscow. The set
tings were designed by the Arm Of
Motley Of London, which provided
those for Miss Cornelps production

Another irreplaceable personality
joined the screen immortals when
Edna Mae Oliver passed on.
The tall. angular Bostonian was
unique. There was never anybody
like her in any one Of the three ar
tistic felds-stage, screen, radio. in
which she excelled as character
comedienne.
Her long face that launched a
million laughs required little make
: up. All she had to do was to sniff
one of her famous shifts, grimace
with her mouth, lift her quizzical
eyebrows and she was every charac-
ter She ever played. '.t
She was born Edna Mae Nutter,
and she always remained Nutter.
never knew any one who was as
naturally funny as Edna Mae Oliver.
remember her telling me: Il was
crazy to act from infancy. I was
always clowning. I had keen sense
of huhor, am misunderstood by
the family. When I decided to 60
on the stage, an uncle told me:
Edna, there is no place for you on
the stage. You are not the build
physically. You are all bones; you
will never be successful
Never Yearned for Beauty.
II had a terrible feeling within that
whatever you want hard enough,
and work hard enough for, you are
bound to get.
MY looks have always been part
and parcel of me- I don't mind
making myself grotesque. The mag
azine writer who once called my pc
culiar face horse face made me
furious when he said I yearned for
beauty. I never regretted I WASH t
beauty. Women who look beauti-
full don't make lasting impression.
Il am not one OF those thwarted,
sad clowns. I get great joy out Of
making people laugh. People really
need laughter more than anything
else in the world"
Could Wear Clothes.
Edna Mae confessed, however, that
until she had seen herself on the
screen she didn't know she was that
bad looking" II was petrifled," she
said. 1T can't be that is me,
thought. I don't look like that, do
I? Well, as Bobby Burns said, If we
could see ourselves as others see us,
we wouldn't be so cocky."
Behind the screen Edna Mae
Oliver was striking looking dow
ager who knew how to wear clothes.
Turbans which she wound herself
were her favorite chapeaux. She
had them, with earrings to match,
for almost every costume. She was
one of few actresses who owned a
full-length sable coat, and a
diamond tiara.
She wore both to the opening of
the opera at Los Angeles last winter
and got mention in every local
column as the most glamourous
figure at the opera when she came
sweeping down the aisle In her long
velvet gown!
Was Good Musician.
Over the telephone later Edna
Mae gave me a funny account of
what went on before she made her
entrance. Half way to the theater
she discovered she had left her
opera tickets at home. The chauf-
feur had to turn around and rush
hack to Beverly Hills. When they
returned the streets were blocked
with cars. Edna Mae, who did not
propose to miss the opening num-
Der. got out Of her car with her
escort, threw her train over her
arm and sailed down several blocks

much misfortune on Broadway as
they have met up with good for
tune. This week they combined in
the Theater Guild production of
Barry's new comedy, Without
Love-" and at this moment it is still
toss OF the coin as to whether
they are in good luck or bad luck
stage.
In 1888 Miss Hepburn had a mar
velous role in '''The Lake." but the
play was not a sensation; it was a
failure. In 1880 Barry wrote a play
called Hotel Universe" which was
highly praised by critics and others
in the theatrical profession, but it
never was a box office hit.
Without Love" seems to be a
prospective happy medium; it offers
Miss Hepburn in one of the best
and most romantic roles of her
career, and it presents well-estab-
lished playwright with a new COM
edy that probably owes much OF
its charm and strength to the fact
that it has a top-f1ight cast like
Miss Hepburn, Elliott Nugent and
Audrey Christie playing the leading
roles and with the smooth direction
of Robert B. Sinclair.
Miss Hepburn plays the role of
Jamie Coe Rowan (there should be
story somewhere why any one
could ever think that name up for
an attractive girD, and she is a
former Congressman's daughter who
proposes to a youthful diplomat on
a basis that their marriage will be
platonic. He is surprised but
agrees to do what she suggests.
The young diplomat, Patrick
Jameson, is concerned about the
affairs of the world as he is about
his native Ireland and as he is
about Jamie, his romantic interest.
Then Jamie katharine Hepburn)
realizes she is really in love with
Pat Elliott Nugent), but she has a
difficult time in convincing him of
this fact. Jamie impersonates one
of Pats light of loves, wears a hair
dress exactly like "the other wom-
an" and it almost becomes a re-
verse replica of scene from Ferenc
Molnar's 1.-The Guardsman."
So Jamie and Pat go of for their
delayed honeymoon. Story sounds
familiar, but its charming as Miss
Hepburn, Mr.. Nugent, Miss Christie
and their associates perform this
new comedy. -
Miss Hepburn's personal triumph
before the opening night audience
was impressive despite the fact that
Barry's play did not come of with
too much enthusiastic acclaim. But
Barry's new play and Miss Hep
burns performance are definite
progress in the artistic careers OF
these two.

There Will Never Be Another Edna Mae Oliver
She Was Unique and Distinctive Personality
Who Scorned Beauty Made World Laugh

| to the theater, her hair blowing
every which way under her tiara !
She was born musician and
music was the love of her life. She
never missed a symphony, opera or
bowl concert. She had a box at the
Hollywood Bowl where I frequently
sat under the stars with her.
Owned Three Homes.
In the first home she built Edna
Mae had Capehart. BY pressing
button she could flood any room
in the house with music. She had
the finest symphonic records. She
also had jazz records. In order to
keep timber she used to put up her
skirts and dance! - "a
In the last three years of her
life she owned three homes. She
sold her house on Sunset boulevard
to Carole Lands, and bought a
little larger one in Beverly Hills so
she might have a favorite cousin
from Boston come to live with her.
This relative was killed in an auto
mobile accident directly in front of
the house, and Edna Mae soon after
sold, and moved out of it.
She bought and remodeled an
other house in Beverly Hills, only
to leave that after the war and 20
to an apartment. Hollywood's first
blackout sent her rushing to the
lobby in her fur coat with five ST 900
bills in her pocket.
She was vegetarian, hadn't
touched meat for years. She was q
fresh-air fiend. The worst cold ]
ever got was riding in Edna Macs
limousine one cold night with all
four windows wide open.
She Loved to Swim.
She learned to swim in California
and was so mad about it she swan
every day, winter and summer. Her
chauffeur drove her down to the
ocean Immediately after she had
her morning coffee. She had it in
her contract that she was not to
report on a set until after II am
so she could get her swim. Once
Edna swore she had tussle with 9
shark.
Yet, I saw her one evening have q
conniption fit when a mouse ran
under her foot in a theater! Edna
Mae came rushing out to tell the
manager, who assured her she must
be seeing things. She went back to
her seat, tucked her long legs under
her and sat on them, while every
body in her vicinity was convulsed
She loved to go to movie previews
and frequently accompanied me
But when her car reached the en-
trance, and she was recognized and
cheered, it was all could do to get
her out Of it. Then I acted as
buffer while she held on to my coat
tails. She loved adulation and yet
she feared it. She was a dominating
personality and yet she was shy.
Loved Companionship.
She liked to be alone and vet she
never took trip to Europe or Homo
lulu that she didn't telephone one
Of her numerous cousins or old
friends in Boston-like Miss Martha
Day, to join her, giving them Just
enough notice to get their buds
packed.
Frequently she went back to Bos-
ton to visit. She was born in one
OF the old brown-stone fronts on
Charlotte avenue.

me her story:

scenarist, is important before it
opens because it brings back tc
broadway as top producer a man
named AL Woods. He has, as all
Broadway managers agree, been
missing too long from the theatrical
street here where he presented so
many hit plays while he has been
basking in the sunshine of Cali
tornia for the past several years.
Woods return to Broadway was
IN character. He is opening with
the melodrama,' and announced i'm
meuiately that he will follow that
with the production of a farce
probably bedroom) called 1.-THE Kew
to Why's Room"
"a. Remains In Character.
The production of these two tvpes
OF plays is in character for Woods
because since 1902 when he started
by presenting a startling melodrama.
ne has nearly always produced
either melodramas or bedroom
larces and has made several for
tunes on these.
In the more gruesome field he
dE THE Crooked Path" 1.-THE Great
Express Robbery" and many others.
anG on the lighter more romantic
side he produced such hits as His
Bridal Might and up in Mabel's
Room. 1t was a formula that
couldn't fail,
But. Woods has always been a
producer who conducted his theatre
cal business in series of cycles. He
abandoned his successful bedroom
farces for number of Potash and
Perlmutter and similar dialect
comedies. Then he dropped those
TO produce such serious dramas as
The Green Hat" "The Trial of
Mary Dugan," and "A Farewell to
Arms"
But whatever the nature of these
new plays he is rehearsing for
Broadway, the cheering thing is that
AL Woods is back on the Broadway
that he helped so much to make
a colorful legend. With hit shows
earning him fortune, he still would
walk around the corner to lunch on
a sandwich in a delicatessen. He
is good friend of George Bernard
Shaw's and calls him Buddy" and
probably is the only man who could
do that and not receive a Shavian
1ebuke. Owen Davis once promised
to write two plays week for him,
and did for a time, including "Ber-
tina, the Sewing Machine Girl" and
Nellie, the Beautiful Cloak Model"
A fabulous producer is the To-
year-old AL Woods, and Broadway
is welcoming him back with his own
favorite greeting Hello, sweet-
heart" ~
