Not until he came to Hollywood

Then he met Luber, an attorney
and film executive. With Luber
supplying the organizational ex-

the performers, they formed World

Polk said he went to Rubinstein.
HE told me he wasn't sure that
concert artists could compete at
the box Office with the Gables and
CRADLES. I asked him: What
would you give to be able to OBJ
serve Chopin at the piano?' He
said. 1T would be worth several

aside from the success such films
might have they would be price

A New
Approach
Films to Present
Musicians as Well
As Their Music
By Jock Quieg

Would the names Heifetz, Rubin
stein or Pons on a movie house
marquee influence you to go in?
Hollywood is gambling that
they will.
Two producers have undertaken
a project that music lovers have
cried for since films began to talk
Bringing great concert artists and
their works to the screen.
Bernard Luber and Rudolph
Polk convinced the big names of
the music world the public is will
ing to pay to see them as actors,
as well as artists. Now the first
half dozen of series of half-hour
films starring famed soloists is
ready for winter release.
The pictures are not just con-
certs on film. Nor are the stars
really acting. for they play them
selves. There is music. to be sure,
but 1t turns up naturally in stories
designed to present the man, not
the figure you see on stage.
A Visit With Heifetz.
The sight. for example, of tux
edoed Jascha Heifetz scraping
away before an audience would
soon have q movie audience
fldgeting, regardless Of how
heavenly the strains.
Instead. the camera visits the
violin master in his California
home and pictures him boating
and playing tennis. loafing through
the last few days of the vacation
that precedes a concert tour.
On the day play stops, the
camera follows him to his studio,
watches him break out a practice
instrument and begin three
months training grind that would
do credit to an athlete. Ten min
utes the first day. The strings cut
his soft fingers. After a week he's
up to half an hour. A month and
his fingers. hard and timber, fly
through complicated exercises. He
works In sweat shirt.
Three months, and Heifetz
draws his famous Stradivarius
from its case. ready to hit the
road. This, the narrator says, is a
side Of the artist the public never
sees.
A 10-Year Dream.
! In other films, Artur Rubinstein
plays Pop Goes the Weasel for
his children. Marian Anderson
sings joyously on her Connecticut
farm. The Metropolitan Opera
Company's Jan Peerce and Nadine
Conner, returning to a theater
after concert, give a recital for
a night Waterman who had never
heard them sing.
| The project is the realization of
a 10-year dream for Producer
Polk. former concert violinist and
later manager of such artists as
Heifetz and Horowitz. His dream
was to bring fine music to people
in small towns and areas far from
big city concerts.
Il have travelled the world over
and everywhere there is a hunger

You don't hear too much about
the success of the children of
famous Hollywood parents. It's
tough to follow a big star in the
next generation. Douglas Fair
banks is the only one I can think
of who has made good in big
way.
But a lot of the very young gen.
Grafton is now growing up. Let's
see what is happening to them on
the career front.
Harold Lloyd has Junior
Nothing much beyond a few bits
in pictures has happened to the
young twig from the Lloyd tree.
But he does get a part on the
stage here locally in MY LA" The
senior still looks young enough to
be a junior. That might handicap
the boy-but not for too long if
he has any talent.
The Chaplin sons are both
ambitious for acting careers. But
Charles. jr.. is discouraged by the
lack Of local offers. He appeared
in several plays at The Actors
Lab. But now / ; H. rullcd up
his Los Angeles roots and lives
permanently in New York, with
plays in mind and television.
Sydney Chaplin has been
luckier. With group of young
actors, Sydney is one of the
founders of the local Circle The
alter. They are ambitious. put on
plays like School for Scandal"
What Every Woman Knows"
with Chaplin usually in a fat
part. and always behind the scenes
on the business end-Sydney, 1
mean, not Charlie senior.
Won't Take Her Seriously.
But this is the older Chaplin's
pet hobby. He usually directs the
plays for his son. helps out fl
nancially for props, etc. I've
watched young Chaplin act. He
is not yet chip off the old block,
not a comedian: but learning his
trade with great diligence.
Gloria Swanson has very
beautiful daughter. Micheline
Farmer, 10 years old and yearn-
ing to be an actress like Mama.

Ho||ywoods Younger Generation
Is Reaching the Career Stage
Some Sons and Daughters of Famous Movie Stars
Wont to Act, but They Are the Exceptions

Paramount is writing in roles for
all four boys in the picture Bing
will make with Hopalong Cassidy.
They'd Rather Not Act.
Ethel Barrymore's son, John
Colt, makes an occasional movie.
But his parts aren't too big. OF
course, there is Diana Barrymore,
who acts on the stage. She made
one awful movie here, has never
been asked to repeat.
Tim Holt. son of Jack, does
okay in Westerns. So does the
son of Harry Carey. Both will
have to work hard to catch up
with their fathers.
Louis B. Mayors daughter,
Irene, married David Selznick.
and while she was his wife was
content to be only a housewife.
Came the separation and divorce
and Irene branched out in her
own producing right, to be one
of Broadway's most successful
producers - "Streetcar Named
Desire
William Powell's son by his first
marriage preferred not to follow
in fathers footsteps. I believe
he works in the script department
of a major studio. And I think
that, on the whole, most children
of the famous in Hollywood pre-
fer to have any career except that
of acting. And that apparently
is a general rule-you never want
your children to follow in your
career-except for doctors and
lawyers. Am I right?

Gregory Peck and the actors
company took Micheline seriously
enough to give her role in Sum
mer and Smoke" in which Dor
othy Mcguire and John Ireland
have been touring on the West
Coast and in Texas. Meanwhile
Micheline lives on her own pay
staying at the inexpensive Studio
Club in Hollywood.
Betty Cradle Says NO"
John Barrymore, jr., perhaps
has the toughest time to convince
the world that he can stand on
his own profile. Imagine hoping
to follow the great Jawn! I've
seen young John in a few movies
but the best is to come, accord
ing to Corrine Calvet, who played
Barrymore's mother in Quebec. "
Corrine, who is only Is herself

actors like Claude Rains and Burt
Lancaster and Dan Daley, but

them. He's going to be great"
Betty Cradle has been asked
time and again to have her two
dauphters in her pictures, but she
always hollers a loud No" But
Judy Garland wants HERS to get
the taste for greasepaint5 early.
So does Robert Ryan, who had his
four-year- old son with him in his
last movie.
I guess Sam Goldwyn, jr., could
have had an acting career if he
wanted it. He didn't. Sam, jr.,
chose to be a producer like his
father. So did Jack Warmers son.

Boy Scout Stamp
Now Available

Postal clerks will be ready for
the thousands of scouts who will
visit all postoffices this week to
purchase one or more If the new
three-cent postage stamps which
have been issued in their, honor
by the government.
100000 of these stamps have
arrived in the Boston Postal Dis
trict for sale and judging by the
number of inquiries received at
the various poStoffices it appears
likely that an additional supply
will be needed to meet the de-
mand. The new &c stamp shows a
picture of three scouts, the Statue
of Liberty and a portion of the
pledge of the Boy Scouts, "On
My Honor I Will Do My Best" to-
gether with the official scout en-
blem and the words Boy Scouts
of America.
Troop leaders plan to buy up
a quantity of these stamps and
use them on future mail while
individual scouts will want at
least one stamp to be kept as a
souvenir. Boys Clubs, c. Y. Q.
groups and other youth organiz-
atoms are planning to use these
stamps in the coming weeks on
all mail matter as a means of
promoting the movement and a.
Weakening an interest in the youth
Of America.
Stamp; collectors will certainly
want a number of these stamps
since they will be sought by
philatelic enthusiasts in the
future.
This stamp was placed on sale
at the National Jamboree of the
Boy Scouts at Valley Forge dur
ing the past week for the first
time. The color of the new stamp
is naturally of brown to match
the uniform colors Of the scouts.

FORGIVE YOURSELF

Most people find ishard to for
give a wrong, an injustice, a hurt
or slight received through others.
However, if one harbors such
feelings of resentment he will
soon find himself without a
friend, for, offenses consciously or
unconsciously inflicted are met
with daily. Therefore, it is wise to
forgive and If possible forget the
unpleasant; otherwise, happiness
escapes you. But, more important
than this forgiving of others is.
