In this scene Miss Shearer sings for the first time in pictures, using the $ong rumber written by Noel Coward for the original stage pro- duction of the hilarious farce. Scene of Hotel Balcony It is filed “Some Day ITl Find You,” and as the scene opens on a hotel balcony, Montgomery is whistling the song. As he whistles, Miss Sheorer emerges on an oppo- site balcory and starts to !sing, accompanied by Montgomery's whistling accomaniment. Although Miss Shearer is an ac- complished pianist and known: ta her friends as the possessor of a lovely soprano voice, the song in the new picture is the first time she has sung for the public, Two Cicrophones Two microphones were employed by Director Sidney Franklin to record the unusual duet. One took care of the high-frequency vibra- tions of the whistling and the other was tuned in on Miss Shear- er's voice.
