Etiquette department: Most au-
diences one encounters in the the
ater are just audiences, but that one
at the National last Tuesday night
is one we shall not forget. It was
one of the most pleasant, gracious
groups we ever sat with, and we
have been intending to say so the
first gap that occurred in our per-
sonal newprint situation.
The particular manifestation of
grace was the applause which greet
ed Ronnie Cunningham, ballerina,
who fell during her first number. 1t
was a virtual ovation Miss Cunning
ham received when she reappeared
after just split second in the wings,
and she deserved it.
Investigation disclosed-if you
wondered why several others slipped
on that stage that night-that the
company management had request
ed the stage be mopped just an
hour before the performance. 1t was
mopped and remained in the condi-
ton of stage that has just been
mopped for some time after the
performance started.
# you were in that audience, we
thought you might like to know
what caused Miss c. and the others
to slip.
Promotion department: Ever since
she became Mrs. Elliott Roosevelt,
Faye Emerson has been becoming
larger in the type advertising pic
lures in which she appeared. Warm
er Bros almost at once announced
her promotion to star dimensions,
but Miss Emerson's roles were not
actually of that caliber in those
then n-being released pictures.
She really becomes the principal
feminine performer in her next
picture. 1t is called Danger Sig
nal' and will present Zachary Scott
in the stellar male part.

the prewar representative of this |

represented by play on Broadway

upon Wolfert's novel, fuckers

wyn, following the announcement il
this column a few weeks ago thai
Mr.. Goldwyn might be the on,
Hollywood producer selected to film
what undoubtedly should prove thu
greatest screen life story of all time
Although no rights to such a pro.
duction have yet been obtained by
any studio and certainly the casting
OF such film hasn't even come up
for serious attention, 1t Is appar-
ent from the Photographic response
that the world as whole is more
interested in Roosevelt movie than
anything that could be contem-
plated at this time.
From Spokane, Wash, to Bangor,
Me, and from Vancouver, British
Columbia, to Miami, pictures of pos
sible Roosevelt portrayers have been
flowing in to the Goldwyn Offices.
Some are striking in their similarity
but the vast percentage, from the
Photographic evidence, are mere
Wishful thinkers.
Writing from Spokane, for in
stance, is Ralph Erickson, who
maintains that his city has the one
and only look-alike essential to
the proper portrayal of FDR. Hun
dreds have acclaimed him to be a
near dead-ringer for Mr.. Roosevelt" :"
writes Erickson. He has a proven
voice for sound and radio, is per-
feet in his limitations of speech and
actions of famous people and has a
striking facial likeness"
To date, the race for the Roose
velt movie rights appears to lie
among Goldwyn. Goth Century Fox
and Warner Bros. Goldwyn is con-
sidered closest to the plum because
Of his pre-war business affilia ton
with Col. James Roosevelt.
Close ups: Die Gently, Stranger,
being produced by RKO, employs
water as a device for creating a
mood Of horror. Told of this, w. C.

Varied Program
Held in Phillips
By ELENA de SAYN,

A young contralto, Martha Worth
Micci, ably assisted by Richard
Keith at the piano and Francis
Tursi, U. s. NJ, violist, essayed a
varied program in the Phillips Gal
lery before friendly audience last
night.
Opening with Thy Hand, Be-
linda" and When I Am Laid in
Earth" recitative and air from
Pursell's Dido and Aeneas," Miss
Micci followed it up by four addi-
tional English songs, three of these
arranged by Cecil Sharp: 1.-The
Cuckoo" ''The Coasts of High Bar
barry" and Lord Kendall" more
suitable, however, for q male voice
because of its text and its general
character.
Endowed with a low contralto of
pleasing timbre and lyric in quality,
the singer seemed to be as yet
handicapped by lack of a solid
foundation. Her unsteady tone pro-
duction and limited volume were
especially disturbing in the first of
two Brahms songs: "Gestillte Sehn-
sucht" presented with viola obbli-
cato. In this the two parts ap-
peared often at odds in pitch.
The most enjoyable number in the
first group was Handers "Droop Not,
Young Lover" The rarely heard
AN die Hoffnung" by Roger was in
cluded in the program together with
Duparc's 'l1nvitation au voyage"
Ravels "Reves" and Tout GAR
Quilters Passing Dreams" drom

sons velvet Shoes" Avshalomoff's
