R upon them is the periodical endorsement of a check. On the other PR side of the fence the studios—ever alert to opportunities for saving a few thousands to apply to their favorite charities where charity begin—are not exactly looking the other way. There seems to be no precedent here for the quection, which hasn’t risen before for the good reason that studios still pay out sizeable wads of cash for all rights (when they can get 'em) including the Scandinavian and television. Aurania Rouverol, author of the play “Skiddding” which evolved on the screen into the immortal Hardy Family series, has a share in each of the films although she no longer writes them.

Katharine Kavanaugh originated the screen’s first modern “family” series, but the studio immediately purchased all rights to the Jones Family characters, for a flat sum, as soon as it was decided to perpetuate them. The Warner-Hurst controversy may produce different angles, including possibly the question of a studio's right to make two pictures from one novel if that is what has been done. In any event, it's going to be one legal-litry tilt with a punch. Special Breakfasts, Lunches, Dinners For Fast Service Call the The B. M.
