there's . tumble and you're on
the defense. Or, on the defen-
sive. This particular tumble
has been recovered by Sally Ann
Sessions. who chides the depart
ment for identifying q picture
as one Of MORA Shearer in the
Dupont Theater's "Tales OF
Holman" This, says Miss Ses-
sions firmly, is not Miss Shear
er, but Ludmilla Tcherina. She
is so right and it even might
have been noted by q blush
ing caption-writer had he looked
twice at the picture instead Of
at the wrong name some mis-
recreant wrote on the back Of
it.
AFTER DARK-There is one
thing that is full recompense
for a lot Of other things In the
life Of a professional show
scanner. This is the ever pres
ent possibility of a sudden en-
counter with unexpected talent.
The odds are great against it
happening tonight or tomorrow
night or, for that matter. any
night, but it can happen.
It happened last week at
the Shoreham Blue Room,
where Guy Marks, q comedian
fairly new to the cabaret cir
cult. turned up to headline
the new stage show. Mr.. Marks
stepped out on the floor as
a completely unknown guam
tity to this ringsider - and
within scarcely more than 80
seconds established himself as
q man OF genius. He did 1t
simply by initiating an ostrich.
Mr.. Marks is a comedian
who 'Ndefles cataloguing. one
with aNstyle all his own. who
won't remind you of someone
else. He won't, that is, except
when doing so Intentionally,
as a mimic, an art at which
he excels. In fact. you'll enjoy
the Marks mimicry even II
you agree with Peter Lind
Hayes, who once observed that
impersonators are sweeping
the country-and they should
be.
To demonstrate how skilled
Mr.. Marks is at this branch
Of his trade, he needs only
to take a couple Of steps for
you to recognize instantly his
Humphrey Bogart or Boris
Karloff. he can do Bob
Mitchum without taking a step.

The man. in need Of a mild
reproof today is Charles Levy,
director Of advertising and pub
LEFTY for Walt Disney. Either
MrsrLevy. or one Of his hirel-
ings. or somebody's typist who
plays the typewriter by ear has
just perpetrated a linguistic sin
tlIHt can not be allowed to pass
unnoticed. Give some people an
inch and they will take the
whole dictionary.
The Levy offense Is commit
ted ID q press release that be-
gins:
THE motley crew of more
than 100 flercesome pirates led
by Sessue Hayakawa in Walt
Disney,s %. 900 900 Panavision-
Technicolor production. Swiss
Family Robinson hail from
points east, west, north and
south, and represent q good
cross section Of the races OF
man"
That long-winded omnibus
sentence can be excused. This
lis standard operating proce-
'due in movie press releases. II
permits the boss to know that
everything pertinent has been
included when his mind wan
ders to something else before
he can start the second para
graph
We also may as well over
look the carefree failure to
match noun and verb in mot
ley crew :, hail" Today's
usage seems to be on the side
Of the plural verb. in spite
of Fowler and other die-hard
language purists.
IT'S that word "fiercesome'
that has to 60. In the first
place. there is no such word.
In the second place. if the
author was attempting to coin
a word, he didn't think it
through far enough. Fierce
some" can only mean that the
pirates are some fierce. but
not much.
$50
In the third place, if fear
some is the word Mr.. Levy
and his staff were after, they'd
better abandon it and search
for another one. For fearsome
is one Of those words that help
give English a reputation as
a silly language, somewhat
less logical than French ir-
regular verbs.
