there it was. the old Gloria Swan

Miss Swanson arrived in Wash

Paramount's coming picture. THE

It's all a bit puzzling. She is
not in The Heiress" nothing

postwar picture for Paramount.
1t is entitled Sunset Boulevard"

she hastenS to say.
AS to this promotion tour, Miss
Swanson said that while she was
in Hollywood she heard reports
that people were not going to the
movies the way they used to. She
is not sure whether these reports
are true. But as an old friend of
the industry, she volunteered to
do something about it. Not that
she has any movie stock-she sold
out her interest in United Artists
years ago.
When she saw the first runs
of The Heiress" she decided that
was the picture that could bring
people back to the movies. So
she took to the road to call atten-
tion to it. She loves to travel
anyway.
At so Miss Swanson is un-
mistakably the same person who
made all those pictures. People
turn in the street and stare at
her the same as they do at Dor
othy Lamour.
Her great interest at the mo-

Lorenzo S. Winslow. architect Of

plan today shortly after an

It will take from a month to

Particular care will be given the

All this will be done in concur

he explained. That's my play"
Mr.. Green is known as the man
who can make real drama rather
than mere pageantry out of patri-
otic subjects. He did it with "The
Lost Colony at Manteo, N. c..
and with THE Common Glory at
Williamsburg, Va.
To house his outdoor produc-
ton. a theater will be built in
Rock Creek Park. That is an i'm
portant part of Mr.. Green's plans.
He visualizes writing and revising
his now half-f1nished play as the
theater is built.
The theater and the play for
which it is built win be an integral
part of each other but Mr., Green
visualizes using the theater for
concerts and religious services, too,
as is done at Manteo.
His yet untitled play will use

terror walls. demolishing interior
brick walls and installing steel
columns and framework inside
the building. Mr.. Winslow said.
One of the major engineering
problems is to give the structure
and adequate foundation. 1t will
be necessary to excavate from 20
to "a feet to put the place on a
solid footing. The present sag
ging trouble was caused by the
fact the building now rests only
on clay, Mr.. Wins1oW said.
Only the exterior walls now
have a spread foundation and the
interior walls have no footing.
Hence it was that the inner walls
broke away from the outer and
sank, Mr.. Winslow explained.
During the interior remodeling,
guest rooms will be increased in
number and enlarged.
Four corners of the roof will be
raised to add more space on the
third floor The floor now has a
number of small guest rooms.
Plans call for eight large rooms
on the third floor, each with bath,
and several smaller ones includ-
ing seven more rooms for servants.
A new staircase connecting the
second and third floors will be
erected on the east side. A service
elevator also will be installed from
the basement to the third floor.
The construction job will be
awarded on a cost-plus-f -fixed-fee
basis and the bids have been
requested from a number of
contractors who responded to a

f1cations recently sent out by the
