Columbia Studios, recipients of the award from the Society of Mo- tion Picture Arts and Sciences for sound recording, 'state that new methods of recording have been em- | i which bring out qualities in | Moore’s voice not heard in “One Night of Love.” Leo Carillo, excellent and noted player, has been chosen for the role of Corelli, the music-loving Italian gambler and cafe operator who is the leading male character of the production. Luis Alberni, remember- 'ed as the excitable assistant to Car- minati in “One Night of Love,” has a similar role in the new production. From the New York stage and con- | cert halls comes Michael Bartlett, circles. In addition to the classical num- bers, “Love Me Forever” will intro- duce a new song by Victor Schert- zinger of the same name as the title of the picture.
