I'VE fired him but didn't have

Little Caprices
BY HAROLD HEFFERNAN.
unY = XyVTfNNY


The movies have bunked the pub
lie so long and so often that the
customers no longer rise in pro-
test. They take 1t all for granted.
For instance, everybody sings and
plays any kind of an instrument In
the movies today. Sometimes it's
the real thing; much more often
it's = fake.
Doesn't matter II an actors ton
sils are bit on the rough side,
he can be set down for q song Just
the same. Synchronization of lip
movement with q number being
sung over playback recording has
reached such q stage of near-per-
fection that the operations q cinch.
Few in the audience, no matter how
adept at lip reading, can tell the
difference between the fake and the
reaD thing.
What's more, the paying Gus
toners don't seem to care. They
once did. Back in the cradle days

CAIRO, Jan. 26-Joseph Stains
son, Jacob, has sent q message to his
father from a German prison camp
by Yugoslav oficer who escaped, a
source close to the Yugoslav gov
ernment-in-exile said last night.
The message was said to have been
carried by Capt. M. Uroshevic, be-
longing to the forces Of Gen. Draja
Mihailovich, the exiied governments s
War Minister. Capt. Uroshevic cap
tured In 1941, was in the same

irg Of 4 musical instrument VA
handed . jolt where 1t hurts-at the
box ofiice.
First outstanding riot was traced
to Richard Barthelmess. then 4 top
star, who suddenly was displayed
and publicized ~ . great pianist.
The way Dick sprayed his fingers
over that keyboard in 4. picture. the
title Of which we can't recall, was
terrific. His stock took q great leap.
Fans called for more Barthelmess
piano" interludes. Then q nasty
Hollywood columnist got on the
scent and exposed the whole thing.
For weeks Dick had rehearsed over
q silent piano. matching his finger
movements with the sounds from
q playback record done by Z pro-
fessional pianist. Dicks downfall
as star is traced to the fans
angry resentment over that deceit.
Most natural job Of song ghosting
today comes via Ann Sheridan.
Couple Of years back Ann was
turned into = musical comedy star.
She has sung In several pictures
since and the voice that apparently
comes out of AIMS screen shadow
is Of the same throaty quality you'd
expect Of the actress. Other little
nuances are almost identical. War
ner Bros. have carefully hidden the
identity Of the ghost.
Many an amusing incident has
popped up in the ghost t-sineing busi-
ness. Some have bordered on the
tragic side. In the latter category,
for instance, is the case OF Jack
Haley, former musical comedy star,
who used to sing on the stage. Jack
came back with = great rush In q
musical movie q few years ago, all
because Of the way he put over the
pictures theme song. He was slated
for bigger and better things. Then
came the exposure. Jack, something
Of singer himself, had made use Of
a voice double in the film.
At the Goth Century-Fox 4 few
years ago, they wanted Lynn Bari
to do, a bit OF singing in a Sonia
Henie picture. Nobody thought to
ask Lynn If she could sing. So they
went out and hired 4 singing double.
After the ,film was released 1t was
discovered that Lynn owned q sing
ing voice Of her own far stronger
and more melodious than that Of
the ghost they'd hired. In her next
picture. Orchestra Wives" they
wanted Lynn to sing again. But the
boys were stuck now. They couldn't t
use Lynn's real voice because fans
would recognize the difference be-
tween 1t and that Of the ghost in
the previous picture. So they used
the double again.
Sequel to the Bari case Is that
Lynn Is going to sing in Sweet and
Low Down." a new musical just get
ting under way at Goth Century Fox
with Benny Goodman and others
And Lynn Is going to use her own
voice. The studio bosses figure
enough time has now elapsed since
Orchestra Wives" 20 that fans will
forget just how the Bari tonsils are
tuned.
The really big job for the actor
Stimulating q singing job is the CO.
ordination of lip movement with the
playback. Even the real singers
such as Deanna Durbin, must gc
through this ordeal, for all then
solo recordings are done in q special
sound room, then synchronized via
playback on the set.
Musical ghosting Is Hollywood's
biggest fake-but studios no longer
make the slightest attempt to pull
the wool over customers eyes.

made more general.
Our new Smyrna Orchestra,
which has been practicing for some
months past, was invited down to
Rev. G. w. Danes last Wednesday
night to give his monograph their

of hearing this roll of mysterious

their own production. The orches-
ira is composed of about 10 pieces,
who meet at the residence of DR..
Dwight every Wednesday night to
practice and receive instructions.
A very pleasant surprise party
took place on Monday evening at

cee0ded to his home, taking lots
of dainty morsels to set before the

Have you ever realized the tre-
menduous effect which your
thoughts have upon your life
1t is fact that has been proven
time after time that the thoughts
which we keep turning over and
over in our minds have a powerful
influence upon our emotions, upon
our attitude toward others, adm
upon our decisions.
Your daily thoughts affect even
your health. They have a great
deal to do with your skill in get
ting along with others. They have
tremendous influence upon your
ability to meet difficult situations.
Soldiers in foxholes, in constant
danger of instant death, know what
a tremendous influence their
thinking has upon their morale.
They have learned that when they
are able to control their thinking,
they are masters in the dangerous
situation facing them.
1t is to be admitted that the con-
troll of ones thought-habits is diff
ficult attainment. So is everything
else which is worthwhile. The
trained man has spent many a long
tedious hour in daily practice to
attain the skill he now possesses.
So it is with the person who wishes
to become master of his own
thought-habits. He must daily
practice along certain lines.
