The real facts are that La Negri
expected to be brought to Hollywood
with great publicity fanfare, her
travelling expenses paid, and lux
urious establishment put at her dis
posal, with Paramount paying the
toll. The studio tells me they re-
fused to meet her demands. The
tests for Pillar would cost $4,000
alone and it is a gamble whether
she is suitable.
It's amazing how little she has
changed in appearance since her
first arrival in this country in 1924.
This was following her sensational
picture, Passion" in which she por-
trayed Du Barry. 1t was directed by
Ernst Lubitsch in Germany, and re-
leased in the United States by
Famous Players-Paramount.
When she arrived in New York,
the studio gave her press reception
they still talk about. There was
never anything to equal it. 1t was
during prohibition. but there was
almost enough champagne and fine
liquors to float Times Square? {.
This daughter of a Polish wine
merchant emoted best under the
stimulus of champagne. There was
always kept on the set iced cham
payne which she drank throughout
the day.
Pola's arrival on the Famous
Players lot created Roman holiday
for the publicity boys. There was
immediate war between Pola and
Gloria Swanson. Gloria was the
queen of the lot, the big star OF
De. Miles pictures. She resented
that foreign upstart" who threat
ened to topple her throne.
Stories Of their mutual hatred
and jealousy are now legends. One
story is worth repeating. 1t
concerns, ironically enough, cats.
The old studio then had wooden
stages. infested with rats. To help ex-
terminate them they had to keep
cats, of which 1t seems Pola had a
horror. She ordered every cat re-
moved from the studio-instead,
they were boxed up while she was
on the lot. Gloria Swanson heard
about this and said If they touched
a single cat, she wouldn't appear on
the lot. So the poor property men
were kept busy corralling the cats
when Pola majestically moved on
the lot, releasing them again when
Gloria appeared!
Pola's greatest triumph was that
she outlasted Swanson at Famous
Players When Gloria married her
marquis, Pola outdid her by marry
ing prince. Serge Mdivani. Pola's
first Hollywood romance was with
Charlie Chaplin, whom she had met
in Berlin during his European tour
They repeatedly denie rumors of
an engagement, but .iendship ex-
listed between the n.ovie queen of
fire and the comedy king, to whom
she gave the pet name of Little
Jazz Boy, Charlie" Some say it

autocratic and aloof, managing at

Theaters Keep
To Schedules
In BlackOut

Washington's theaters, ready
for tonight's blackout test, will
have no blackout inside-and
all entertainment programs will
continue on regular schedule
without interruption.
This was revealed by a check
of theaters yesterday. with
managers completing the
changeover from brightly light
ed marques and electric signs
to complete darkness-as far
as the exterior Of the stage and
screen houses Is concerned.
Managers stressed the fact
that tonight's test is a blackout
test-not an AFRAID test.
There will be no interruption

| its sweetness. If it is not as funny
in it's present version-and it isn't
quite-one must regretfully attrib-
ute that to the circumstances that
Betty Furness and Dorothy Little
John get less out OF the Sher-
wood sisters than Shirley Booth
and 10 Ann Sayers. A third seeing
of the play was not designed to
make the Misses Furness and Lit
tlejohn more impressive.
None of this is said In q spirit
OF encouraging any one to
leap to the conclusion that some
thing shabby is being palmed oil in
this road company Of MY Sister
Eileen"
The girls performing its gay
sister act in village basement
apartment are not without their
talents and beguiling other quail
ties. Moreover they are appearing
in drama which moves at such
dizzy speed that one has little time
for brooding upon minor defects
of Interpretation.
The McKenney sisters, upon
whom the Sherwoods of the play
are modelled, were a pair chosen by
fate for some Of its most inspired
pranks.
There they were, just a couple of
innocents from Columbus, Ohio,
dumped into a cave in the mad
world of artists, exhibitionists,
drunks, bombastic landlords, single
minded policemen, free and paid
love, and many another thing
violently alien to their rearing. The
language of the Bohemians sounded
just like that spoken in Columbus,
but it did not mean the same thing
at all. You can imagine the things
that might happen in a circum-
stance like that. The authors of
MY Sister Eileen" did it for you
very well, in case you lack compe-
tence.
The imagined, for instance, a
professional football player who does
ironing in the of season in a cos
tune made up of shorts and sneak
ers, mad landlord who paints gro
tesques which he regards as incom-
prehensibly beautiful, a drugstore
manager who cannot take food check
money from a beautiful girl, and
a scad Of others equally out of the
old village. They even imagined,
although you never see them, a
subway blasting crew which pro-
duces the most terrifying noises up
to the invention of dive bombing
1t adds up to one of the funniest
aggregations you ever saw.
Upon all these departures from
the normal, the Sherwood sisters
cut a wonderful tragi-comedy fig
ure. That is especially true OF
Eileen, blessed with a magnetism
no man can resist, plus an innocence
which makes her use it ruthleSsly
toward ends which are always being
misunderstood. Men are drawn to
her like refugees to a soup kitchen
and if 1t were not for sister Ruth,
Heaven only knows what might have
happened. Ruth, more realistic and
cynical about things, Is always there
to trip disaster just before it
happens.
Minor parts in my Sister Eileen"
are played with adequate skill by
cast which includes Leo Chalzel as
the fabulous landlord, King Calder
as the alcoholic reporter, Jean
Castro as the blond denizen of the
apartment before the Sherwoods
took it, and Bijou Fernandez as the
dignified lady who might be its next
tenant.
George S. Kaufman's direction,
which lays the emphasis upon
speed and surprise and the heck
with subtlety, is the asset it always
has been to this piece of madcap-
perry. So is Donald Oxenschlager's
set, a splendid fy-bitten dump If
ever there was one.

the duties of an Army nurse are

Moore High School last May, be-
gan work with the NYA War

first week in June and worked tire
lessly for three weeks, when she
was transferred to Crawford Aus
tin Tent Manufacturing company.
She worked ten weeks at Craw-

lob was to sew rope for the tents.
In order to make production she
had to sew 291 pounds per night.
She sewed 300 pounds per night

second two weeks. The sixth week
she sewed 1000 pounds per night
and made $44 for that week. She
