PATSY RUTH MILLER. Ambasrador A New Seas on \ ; And Va New Career BY PHILANDER JOHNSON. The distinction of opening the reg- ular theatrical season with fireworks of laughter and detonations of ap- plause belongs unreservedly to Fan- nie Brice. The difference between the regular season and the Summer stock season is revealed largely in the scale of prices. The great American cus- tom of assuming that the more a; thing cost< the better it must be has been skillfully handled by theater promoters, who, after all, have little that is tangible to vend and must ap- ipal to psychologic susceptibilities. fany a play in the list of produc- tions by our stock company has been quite a< well cast, with the ex- | ception of the title ro'e, as “Fanny.” The art of making merchandise of human personality is one of the most extraordina commercial develop- ments of civilization. Tt was Brice, and Brice alone, who constituted the value for money received so liberally at the box offic * ok ok X Tt was once considered a splendid triumph of ambition for a stage en- tertainer to work his way from the burnt cork of negro minstrelsy or the putty nose of variety into the so- called legitimate drama. A number of eminent old p'avers would. in the relaxation of intimate surroundings. toss a tambourine or pick a banio in jovial assurance that earlier talents which opened the wayv through the stage door to the star dressing room at least had not heen forgotten. what tragedian is there today who, after comparing bank books and ledgers, would not be tempted to with for the opportunity to change places with Al Jolson? =% Miss Brice is not the first to pro- gress from the musical extravaganza to a place that claims the popular confidence and ability that Be'asco’s sponsorship always inspires. David Warfield did the same, his perform- ance being on the same lines in many respects as those of Miss Rrice. Tt was in “The Merry World” that Warfield travestied the role of Sven- gali and in the midst of a tornado of grotesque fun slipped in a serious moment that meant the big oppor-~ tunity. His Svengali melted grad- ually from broad fun into a few mo- ments of intense acting. which came to be an imitation of Lackaye and be- came to genuine that no student of the theater could mistake its quality. He quickly recovered his comic style, and the merriment went on as if nothing had happened. But those few moments struck the spark that lit the blaze for future fame. * ok ok X Miss Brice also is an echo of the Fast Side. worthy, judged from her present performance, to rank with come of the artists: who have heen graduated from the ranks of those who interpreted Jacob Gordin's plays in the Yiddish theaters of the Bow- ery. dramatic strength is the more re- 'markahle hecause she had not at any time the technical training of those remarkable and semi-exotic institu- tions. kA The play, as it introduces a young woman from the East into a camp of rough Westerners, goes back to | the pen of Joaquin Miller, which blended romance with a strong. rugged beauty breathing the spirit of the Sierras. Mr. Mack is a melo- dramatict, but he has succeeded in devising good comedy. So far as the lines are concerned, the oppor= tunities for laughter or applause are | retty wel!l distributed. There has heen no effort to pick the pluns out of the pastry and hand them over to Miss Rrice.” The difference is that AMiss Brice, with the facial expres- civeness of an Eddie Fov or a Fred Stone. throws the searchlight of tem- perament into every speech and brings the humor out sparkling and distinct. ok ok X Fannie ic a very nice gifl. indeed. but_she is no prude. She does not hesitate to undress to the limit, even of modern stage dishabille. Sadie Martinot got arrested for doing less back in nineteen hundred and some- thing orrother. There is no hint of physical suggestion in the scene with the money belt.+ She seems to be all arms and legs and, while mirth-pro- voking to the utmost, is as gymuastic | and free from se f-conscious guile as | a bunch of boys in a bathing foun- tain on an August afternoon. Yet when she turns to a serious scene with a true heart cry in it, all the grotesque lines into which she falls with facile unrestraint disappear, and the claims deference. not merely as 2 character personality. but as one who can act convincing'y. What <tudying she had done in private her public announcements do not make known. 1i she has studied, the effect is probably unimportant. As Marc Klaw expressed himself to a stage But | That she has shown so much | aspirant, “You either can act or you can't, and that's all there is to it.” * ok ¥ ok Whether the lure of the legitimate will be sufficient to hold Miss Brice, as it did David Warfield, is a ques- tion for the future. Mary Pickford is about the only star who has left Belasco and pursued a career of sub- sequent prosperity. She had the | sense to recognize her talents for motion pictures as superior to her talents for spoken drama. A musical extravaganza will inevitably be loath to lose Fannie Brice, who could carry a show single-handed in the face of |a wilderness of empty tinsel and inane absurdity. A hit for Fannie will be a sad blow to the glorification cohorts, whose exhibitions she has so often supported. 1f it is a hit, there can be little doubt that Fannie will he quite content as a “business woman.” for Belasco leaves a trail of lavish magnificence in his list of productions which makes it certain, whatever else may be ¥aid of him in attack, he cannot be charged with the capital crime in theatrical Broad- way of heing a pinch-purse. {Vadevillc VAl LGS 1ebrats, F. ALBEE has indorsed a plan to * observe a ‘“vaudeville centennial festival vear” in America this com- ing season to commemorate the 100th | anniversary of varfety in this coun- |try. The plan took definite form when managers and executives from |all parts of the country met to ap- I'point the committees and formulate plans for a_hig natlonal campaign. In December of 1826 in the city of New York at the Lafayette Theater, Laurens, near Canal street, there was offered for the first time in Manhat- an a real variety program, a collec- ion of divers brief acts, such as had | in previous vears served as interludes between the acts of legitimate pro- | ductions. It was an interesting and important experiment, soon followed hy other New York houses, notably the Mount Pitt Circus on Grand street in 1827, N Those who gathered here for this purpose included Marcus Heiman and Harry Singer, representing the Or- pheum Circuit: B. S. Moss, C. S. Hum- phrey of Chicago, representing the Middle Western group of theaters; Harry Davis of Pittsburgh, Robert G. Larsen of Boston, John F. Royal of Cleveland. Harry T.

Maloney, Maj. . E. Thompson and Mark A. Luescher. This season' marks 100 vears of va- rlety in America and a gigantic cross- country celebration of this fact is to he launched simultaneously from the Atlantie to the Pacific Coast and car- ried out with an elaborate program of special events and features ade- quate to the occasion. e Sam Scribner Calls. sA.\l A.SCRIBNER, president of the Columbia Amustment Co. of New York City, owner and operator of the Gayety Theater, recently visited Washington on a tour of inspection. Mr. Scribner, who conferred with Manager Ira J. La Motte of the Gavety regarding its properties here, serves burlesque in a capacity sim- flar to Will Haye of the movies. He (s to visit each theater on the circuit and will witness every attrac- tion on the Columbia ‘“wheel” this season, acting as censor of objectional features that come to his attention, substituting new vaudeville acts and ralsing the standard of the enter- talnments. t t | For Beatrice Lille. }SPI—L\RS of Roman gladiators, old D trumpets, queer old Civil War { uniforms and other relics of a for- | gotten day in the American ‘“‘ten- | tventy-thirty” drama, are being resurrected to help Beatrice Lille, the English comedienne, her 'film debut In “Exit Smiling.” the first screen stary Mare Connelly, | Broadway playwright Most of these “sHow car props’” were donated by De Witt Jennings. | A member of the cast, who at one “/me managed a small-town dramatic ‘roupe.

With a new and spacious stage erected by master craftsmen, lavish scenic and electrical effects, uniformed ushers and pages and a multitude of brilliant innovations, the Palace will come into its own as ope of the Loew chain of de luxe theaters. Louis K. Sidney, division manager of all Loew de luxe theaters in the Fast and Middle West, is now in ‘Washington, giving his personal at tention to the detalls of the opening today. e Under the new policy the. Palace will be under his charge, and for the Palace he will create spectacular pre- sentatfons, for which he has become famous in many cities. The new service which will charac- terize the Palace will be seen not only within the theater but in the lobby, where pages, courteous and expertly drilled; may be of service to arriving and departing patrons. The ushers also will appear in natty uniforms. This announcement would be incom- plete it no mention were made of the Palace organ recitals, over which Richard Leibert will preside, Four performances will be given daily, the first de luxe show beginning ., the others at 3:50, 7 and 9 p. today at 2:30 p.m. for the first show, which be. gins at 2:50 pm. On week dava the doors will open as usual at 10:30 a.m. Shirt Cuff Scenario. 'HE shirt cuff scenario has gone to shelf where it crowds the dodo bird, hoopskirts and mustache cups. A hurriedly scribbled memorandum Jotted on the back of a menu card by the director hetween the oatmeal and bacon and eggs courses often served 15 years ago as-the scenario for an entire picture. Sometimes inspiration came on the street car bound for the lot, and then the shirt cuff hecame the filing place of the scenario. Laun- dries washed away thousands of dol- lars’ worth of ideas on the present scale of priges. Today preparation of a story for filming has become a highly special- ized and expensive process and ranks as one of the most important parts of studio work. With this change the writer has risen to a commanding position in Hollywood. In some in- stances he is treated with more def- erence than thefstars for whom he prepares stories.

Opening tomorrow night at the National Theater, “Seven Keys to Baldpate,” said to be one of the fun- niest mystety comedies ever written, has been selected as the vehicle to send the National Players on their way until another season rolls around. Written by George M. Cohan, all the unities one ever heard of are said to be crowded into this tale of what befell a struggling author in a de- serted Summer hotel one night in the dead of Winter. It has love interest, mystery, heavy drama and compen- sating comedy. Cohan had a sudden touch of inspiration when he adapted the play from FKarl Derr Biggers’ story, for, with all these elements to treat with logic and consistency, he leaves nothing at the last curtain that fsn't explicable. People who have patronized the Na- tionalites throughout their 24-week season picked this play for the sea- mon’s fade-out over about 100 entiies, =0 that the farewell week might be laugh week at the National. KEITH'S—Trinl. At B. F.

Life in gay Vienna before the war is pictured in “The Waltz Dream.” the charming romance offered this week on the screen at the Strand Theater.
