It DV o is the first time a musician has COMING ever acted in such a capacity. The man entrusted with the mus- jcal direction of “Hearts in Dixie,” was Howard Jackson, who came to Fox Movietone after many years of success as & song writer, composer, orchestra leader and master of cer- | emonies. Since musical numbers run all \through the production, rendered in a number of instances by an en- semble of sixty mixed voices, it was essential that an expert be given |charge of the vocal performances. Jackson also wrote the theme song, which has the same title as the picture. It is a tuneful melody and expresses the spirit of the pic- ! . ¢ 1 |ture in an authentic way.
