75 CAPITOL DRAMA SHOWING HERE FOR LAST TIMES "The Real Glory"* Ends To- | night-Gary Cooper Is Starred Starring Gary Cooper, and with Andrea Leeds and David Niven heading an unusually important cast, Samuel Goldwyn's new ad- venture drama, “The Real Glory,” which will end tonight at the Capitol Theatre, unfolds a thrilling | and exciting tale of the Philippine Scouts and their heroic bravery| at the conclusion of the Spanish-| American War, when the Philip-| pines were overrun by insurrection- ists and religious fanatics. The central theme of “The Real Glory” revolves around the ex- ploits of the scouts, who became a constabulary on the island and rallied to their support loyal na- tives and peaceful Moros, The| Moros, a tribe of unorthodox Mohammedans, had retreated to| the hills and jungles of the Sulu| Kingdom to wage a fierce. religious| war against the remaining Ameri- | can troops, 1 Henry Hathaway, who directed Cooper in “Lives of a Bengal Lancer,” directed “The Real Glory,” | and the supporting cast is headed by unique players, among them Broderick Crawford, Reginald Owen, Kay Johnson, Vladimir Sokoloff, | Russell Hicks and Henry Kolkor.‘ For the first time in his career, Cooper plays the role of a doctor, who comes to this distant outpost | for medical experience.

HOUSEL SUBPOENAED "IN SAMARLZICH CASE | commanding “don’t,” | child PROBLEM PARENTS | The "Doa’t” Type “It takes less time and cffort te sav don't ——" By SARAH WINSLOW AP Feature Service “Johnny, ‘don’t annoy the doz . don't go near the curb . . don’t play with that boy again, Johnny's mother uses many “dont’'s” and “do’s.” It's an easy habit to fall into. It takes less time and effort to say “don’t” than to explain things to a child; es- pecially when a parent is busy with household tasks As a result of his mother's hur- tfed and unthinking “don’ts,” John- ny is beginning to feel that Mother is a commanding policeman and he is a prisoner in her keeping. “Gee, Mother doesn't let me have any fun at all” is his way of put- ting it. He feels insecure and un- safe. He is afraid to heed the call of his friends to play ball, becau Mother has warned him not to |come home messed up. When Johnny rts thinking in this manner, he is beginning to think of things in the wrong light His approggh is becoming like his mother's—one of “don’t” in- stead of “do." Other children, unlike Johnny, act in a different manner. They rebel and commit the acts they have been warned against because théy know that such acts are for- bidden. To such children, Mother is a tyrant because of her unex-| plained “don’ and tyranny de- | mands rebellion The habit of giving a child an explanation instead of a curt, may be a lit- tle difficult to form at first. How- ever, it becomes a habit after prac- tice, and gives both parent and a greater sense of satisfaction ro- Next argicle; The Puzzled Parcuc. - Dave Housel was subpoenaed al; 'Moose Women fo " Mesdames ) | cine for t Odelia Light Anna Jack- be sisted Mrs Grand Guide 1d Mrs, on, Grand Chaplain.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal., June 18.—We call 'em film factories, and we say they grind out their celluloid, and THIS is how they work sometimes: Loretta Young, Melvyn Douglas, Alexander Hall and P. J. Wolfson are in & huddle beside a bright kitchen set. Miss Young is wearing a fancy black lace thing with flesh-colored slip; the effect is startling, but very, very nice. The other three, and Miss Young, too, are wearing expressions of pained concentration. ‘They are “going over” lines. They are also improvising lines. They have a script, but they are making it “play” as they rehearse. Hall is the director. “Pinky” Wolfson is the writér. The story is “He Stayed for Breakfast,” a light comedy, and natural follow- up for Hall and Miss Young after “The Doctor Takes a Wife.” They come out of the huddle and go into the rehearsal. Doug- las plays a humorless waiter, a “red,” reminiscent of the Garbo character in “Ninotchka.” Miss Young is a pampered dsrling of wealth. The scene is her kitchen. She is hiding Douglss i1 a pantry there. He has just taken a pot shot at a coffee cup lLicld in the fat hand of Miss Young’s wealthy husband, played by Eugene Pallette. Miss Young enters the kitchen, opevs the pantry door. The rehearsal: the light, says. Douglas comes out, warm frow ¢oniiinement, complaining. He holds a page of new dialogue; refers to it frequently. He' begins nibbling at a cookie from a plate on the kitchen table. Miss Young sweeps ‘around the other side of the table and demands an explanatien of the cup-shooting. about to give it—but then he says “P we a line here. . . . Suppose I say, ‘You would:n't understand’?” “I'l try,” Loretta picks it up. So they settle on this, and are about to proceed, but Loretta PERCY’S CAFE OPEN“ ALE Nlé T e switclics on “You may come out now,” she and - Douglas | need to cover TAIN, TOO! looks unhappy. If they don’t mind, she would like to be spotted on the other side of the table. ! “This is my worst possible angle,” she says, although she looks pretty -good from any angle. Nobody minds,eso they switch places, and Miss Young's left profile is to the camera. Douglas, while cdokie-nibbling, is explaining that when he sees plutocraitic Pallette crooking his little finger from his coffee cup “everything goes black.” He is demonsrating with a cup. “You mean red,” says Loretta. “Quit sabotaging me!” cries Douglas. “It’s got to be faster,” says Hall. “Get close to her—so close you can shake the cup at her teeth.” They try it again, and Douglas shakes hte cup—and Loretta giggles, which is not in the script. They try it again, from the beginning, and Loretta switches on the lights, but they don't go on. “Here I am,” says the unseen light-switcher-on when a chorus from the set calls for action. The lights switch on. They do it again, and again. Umpteen rehearsals—and nibbled cookies—later they are ready to do the scene, minus handy scripts. It is a fast and funny scene, much faster and funnier than it was before the Wolfson-Hall-Young-Douglas quartet went to work on it and “played” it But we still call 'em film factories. . . to legislate drama and humor! . and Congress tries center are & new | forms a gorg collar around the top.
