ALPINE COMEDY 70 SHOW HERE FOR LAST TIME‘ *“Paradise f;fi‘hree" Stars' Florence Rice and Robert Young One of the most amusing of this season’s confedy-drammas, ending to- night at the Capitol Theatre, is “Paradise for Three.” The novel plot is carried out to perfection by the excellent performances of Frank Morgan, Robert Young, Mary Astor, Edna May Oliver, Florence Rice,! Reginald Owen, Henry Hull and Herman Bing. Morgan portrays the | rich capitalist who wins a contest and as a reward is sent to an Alpine | resert for two weeks. To enjoy his vacation he masquerades as a poor man, making his valet, Owen, act as a man of wealth. Morgan's daughter, Miss Rice, and his house- keeper, Miss Oliver, find out about his plan and inform the hotel to play up to his whim, but to treat him well. They mistake him for another contest winner, Young, who is actually an unemployed man. From then on things being to hap- pen, especially when Miss Astor, a woman of the world, sets out to trap Morgan, having also learned the truth about him.

Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Oct. 4—Frank Harling—the chubby fel- low with the blue beret glued to his head for neuralgia’s sake—is one musician who gives credit where credit is due. It wasn’t his music that started his career, he insists, but the fact that an exuberant foreign maestro kissed him smack on both cheeks after a performance. By the time the story got around it was a hundred foreign maestros. Harling is writing music again for New York producer Arthur Hopkins, and that's a story. The play is “Heritage,” and Hopkins wants the musical score—for a legitimate play! — recorded on sound track. But the story isn't that. It all began long before Harling had ever met Hopkins, or Hopkins had ever heard of Harling. The musician had been conducting, arranging and doing other musical chores for Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske for seven years when he decided he wanted to compose a grand opera. He needed a libretto. * Said Mrs. Fiske: has been playing in vaudeville for three years. Jjust the thing.” The Italian composer Puccini, however, had an option on the operatic rights. When Puccini did Belasco’s “Girl of the Golden West” instead and didn't exercise the option, Harling took it over. Mrs. Fiske and her husband, Harrison Gray Fiske, did the libretto. “I wrote a one-act play that Bertha Kalisch It ought to be Theé Metropolitan rejected the opera, but the Chicago Civic took it on. Rosa Raisa starred, and Christmas saw_the opening YOU HAVE A SURPRISE COMING FOR YOU! Wait and See the Newer and Finer PERCY’S of “A Light from St. Agnes,” broke, too,” he says. After the opening he was famous, but still broke. The opera was the first to include jazz—but it didn't make money. “And I'm sitting in Boston, famous but broke, when I get a call from Arthur Hopkins' representative,” he recalls. “So I go to Hopkins in New York—and to my amazémént I'm téamed with the great Laurence Stallings to write ‘Deep River’ To my greater amazement I leave the office with a $1500° advance.” After the success of “Deep River” in 1927 Harling’s trail to Hollywood was clear. He's been scoring, with few intermissions, ever since. It's his music you'll be hearing in “Men With Wings.” Nine years ago Paramount had the play, “Come Out of the Kitchen,” and wanted to film it as a' musical . Harling was as- signed to the score, Wesley Ruggles dlrgétlng. It was all done Harling conducting—“and flat | grasping |ed brawl between Ernest Heming- ' character | for they were stationed on a rub- | | 'Iii-l Calomei — And You’ll Jump Ou? and one day Ruggles ) “Well, I'm thinking we've got a turkey on our hands.” That was Harling’s cue .“I've got a hot tune,” he said. Ruggles heard it. At once they bégan building a new set —a Mississippi swamp three blocks long. But they still didn’t have any lyrics. They wanted something a whole chorus of negro slaves could sing in that three-block swamp. They staged the number to Sam Coslow’s lyrics—and the pic- ture, called “Honey,” was saved. But that song today, nine years later, i a hit. It's billed as coming from the Bing Crosby picture of the same title, directed by the same Ruggles. Ruggles liked the song as a title, but except in the overture, it iSn't heard in “Sing You Siniiérs” at all. HE_DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, BRIEF CASE IS story.
