The aggressive directors of the Pacific Coast League's leading club| are watering those grass roots thor- oughly, and already are beginning to reap the harvest through the medium of promising young ball players.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Oct, 28—The tinny piano gives labor- fously of Redwing, my Pretty Redwing, and in the darkened nickelodeon the flickering, jumping figures prance about the screen, Through pie-throwing, wild Keystone Kop chase, or tender romance, the tinny plano gives. . “Hollywood Cavalcade,” the new movie about movie-making history, has many scenes and references to stir memories in | ture fans of an earlier day, but none more potent than that tinny piano giving, giving, giving while the slapstick rolled The picture didn't cover—musically, that is—that later period when studios sent out, with each picture, a thematic score for the guidance of the pianist, who had in most instances by then become an organist, if not a full-sized orchestra. And the film, concluding at the dawn of the talkie-sound era, naturally didn't g0 on to the great development in screen music as it is today. The other day I dropped in on the set of “Four Wives,” and saw Jeffery Lynn conducting a full symphony orchestra for the camera. The composition at hand was that unfinished piece which John Garfield (in “Four Daughters”) left widow Priscilla Lane as his one material legacy. In the new story Lynn has finished Garfield’s work—given it a beginning and an end-— .and is presenting it to wife Priscilla. Quite a few films lately have presented full symphonies: “100 Men and a Girl,” “The Star-Maker” notable among them.

Try it} an Duy» VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS NOW AT Percy’s exclusively practically all pictures, whether we see the musicians on screen or only hear them which is better, are giving us symphonic scores —scores with meaning specific to those pictures. It's a long jump from Redwing, my Pretty Redwing to the skilfully integrated music of the screen today, a jump which hur- dled successfully that dread, happily past era of the movie theme s0ng. It seems to me more balance has been achieved, that fewer scores now overshadow the screen’s action, that more are—as they should be—mere background intensifiers of mood, enhancing without intruding upon the drama or comedy at hand. The still memorable “The Informer” had a musical score that almost told the story in itself but never infringed that story. The music in “A Midsummer Night's Dream” was one of the redéeming features of that noble experiment in Shakespeare, and Werner Janssen's score for “Blockade” atoned for much that was lacking dram- atically. There’s a current score worth noting, too, for its high degree of success in the objective of every good score: to enhance without intruding. You'll hear it in “Elizabeth and Essex,” and it was written by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. Or you may see the picture and not hear it at all, not consciously, which is the test of a good score. Yet, if you listen, you will be aware that every note of music is serving a thematic purpose, subtly aiding the players in their task of creating illusions for their audience.
