LIONEL BARRYMORE

Lionel Barrymore, Oldest and
steadiest of the unpredictable
BarrymoreS, battled unsuccess-
fully against the family tradition
of acting, yet became an out
standing figure of the Amer
lean stage and screen.
Vacillating between a career
of painting, boxing, music and
acting, the senior Barrymore
mastered the arts OF painting.
boxing and music and surpassed
both his brother. the late John
Barrymore, and his sister, Ethel.
in longtime popularity in the
theatre
Barrymore. on his 50th ami
versary of acting in l943, de-
scribed his drift toward the
stage.
Il just don't know how it
happened he said. Il guess it's
like the fellow with the old fliv-
YER who tries other cars, then re-
turns TO the old reliable. Acting
just seemed TO be the one thing
| could do best
Unlike many stars who fell TO
oblivion as they grew older, he
found demands for his services
increasing as he grew older.
When Ethel was no longer
queen Of the leading ladies and
when Johns paunch unsuited
him for romantic roles. Lioners
roles were plentiful and lucra-
tive.
Having attained fame in both
stage and screen work, in later
years he entered still another
field, radio, and was successful
there, too.
BORN TO THEATRE STARS
Son of the great Maurice Bar
rymore and George Drew Bar
rymore, he and his sister and
brother were children of more
than a century OF theatrical her
ltage He was born April %,
1878. in the old family home OF
the Barrymores at Philadelphia,
where the family lived between
stage engagements. He passed his
early life in Philadelphia or
backstage in theatres where his
parents acted.
Recalling the rollicking days
Of his youth for reporters when
he celebrated his 65th birthday,
Barrymore told OF the most in
teresting persons he had ever
met.
Put John l.. Sullivan and Bob
Fitzsimmons at the top of the
list. Both were mighty interest
ing. | first met John l.. i'm an
oyster bar. He had habit of
taking a vicious swing at his
friends with no more serious in
tcntion than knocking off their
hats.
Il fancied myself as boxer
in those days, so when he swung
j ducked right into his big fist.
When ! came TO the Boston
strong boy was standing over me
dripping water from the oyster
ice onto my head.

McKENNY ON

BY WILLIAM r. MCKINNEY
America's Card Authority

Players Of duplicate bridge
know that il is better to play in
major suit than In a minor
suit, because the score is higher.
But they forget that any close
slam contract bid automatically
produces a good score. In todsys
hand most OF the players in a
duplicate game got to six spades
played by North. East started off
by taking the ace of diamonds
after which he had TO get spade
trick and defeat the contract.

FOOLED HIM
Asked if there weren't other
interesting people besides prize
fighters in his 65 years of &C
quaintances, he said:
"Oh yes, give me time, I'm
coming to them"
And he listed Grover Cleve-
land, Piotr Tschaikowsky, Mark
Twain, D. w Griffith, and then
departing from his younger
days, Winston Churchill
Mark Twain and Tschaikow-
sky ! met in bars while waiting
for dad. Seems there was time
when l was always waiting for
him in bars.
One day in the Hoffman
House dad said, Son, want you
to meet Mr.. Samuel Clemens
Il greeted him nonchalantly
and was reprimanded afterwards
for showing no more enthusiasm.
But how was to know that Mr..
Clemens was Mark Twain for
whose books | had developed q
great liking
Humor twinkled in his eyes.
But l did show enthusiasm
for a bit. Twain was having an
apple toddy. After stirring a bit
he extended the drink in my di-
rection, then fished out the APP
pie for me (hsrdly a treat for
Barrymore)."
Barrymore made his stage de-
but when he was years old in
his fathers play as crying baby.
But not until he was ID did he
start his stage career. He played
wfth grandmother Louise Drew
in The Rivals" Next came The
Road TO Ruin"
ARTIST FOR A YEAR
Then he suffered a serious ILL
ness and during his GONZALES
cense he built himself up physi-
cally through boxing.
He afterward returned TO the
stage and in 1900 Joined James
A. Herne in Sag Harbor. "
He played two seasons with
uncle John Drew in Second in

from the theatre TO become a
painter, he unwillingly remained

ed together on the stage was in
revival Of the Barrie piece some
years later.
When ID. w. Griffith started
producing pictures for the old
Biograph organization at Fort
Lee, N. j., Barrymore became
interested. In 1909 he played in
Friends" for Griffith.
He left the theatre for
time TO pursue his dream of
studying art. After visiting Paris
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1943-10-22

and touring Europe, he returned
TO New York TO try his luck as
an illustrator. But, as brother
John had found in fling as a
cartoonist, art was an indefinite
meal ticket, so Lionel was an ar
fist only year.
In later years, however, he be-
came moderately famous as an
etcher. Several of his etchings
have been shown in the Hun
dred Prints of the Year and he
was elected to the Society of
American Etchers.
A third artistic bent he de-
veloped was that of musical COM
positions. His works include the
orchestral suite "Tableaux
Russo" and song he composed
for the late Ernestine Schu-
mann-Heink.
In 1917 Constance Collier ar
rived in New York from London
with Du Marier's Peter Ibbet-
son, and John and Lionel APP
pesred in the production. one Of
the biggest hits in New York.
Then Lionel scored one OF his
greatest successes in The Cop
perheads." Lionel and John,
whom Lionel referred to as 1.-The
boy" until John died in 1912,
again played together in The
Jest"
With the rise in popularity Of
movies, Lionel spent more time
before the cameras than on the
stage John also tried pictures
and Immediately became a sue
cess. Lionels success increased
even more when talking pic
lures developed because there
was great need for experienced
stars with real dramatic ability.
His first sound picture was The
Lion and the Mouse"
WON 81 ACADEMY
AWARD
The senior Barrymore also
branched out into film direction.
He produced a short dramatic
play, Confession" and a series
starring Ruth Chatterton. He re-
turned to acting in what was
considered his best role, that of
the lawyer father in The Free
Soul" with Norma Shearer.
For this he won the Academy
of Motion Picture Arts and Sci
ence award for the best screen
performance in 1891.
Although Lionel and John
played together in several pic
lures, il was not until the pro-
duction Of "Rasputin and the
Empress" that Ethel joined them
in front of the camera.
Barrymores motion picture
roles include: Strangers Re-
turn" Should Ladies Behave?"
This Side OF Heaven" Treas
ure Island" Camille" Road
to Glory" TEST Pilot" you
Can't Take 1t With YOU" and "A
