HOLLYWOOD | | By Mollie Merrick HOLLYWOOD, Calif, . August 2 (N.AN.A).—Ramon Novarro, director! Fame, fortune, the adoration of a world | of women, the envy of a world of men,| have not been enough for Ramon | Novarro. First he longed to sing, lnd; longing crystallized into & quite lovely tenor voice, to which he devotes con- siderable _time and attention. It is the singing Novarro which his public has known since sound films have made this possible. Then came a notion that| he would like to retire from films and | devote his life entirely to singing. Down on Hollywood swept the horde of the earth's warblers and composers and lyricists. Just what they all had to do in diverting Ramon Novarro from this ambition to star in opera some day | is not known, but the singer-actor trans- | ferred his attentions to still another ambition. On the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lot yesterday I found one of the hand- somest men in films, not posing before the cameras, as one would expect. Ra- mon Novarro sat in a stufty little office with a sheaf of casting director's re- ports before him, reading the sum- maries of qualifications listed for cer- tain leading ladies. In the waiting room outside were to| be seen several types of Latin beauty. Ramo: Novarro, turned director for the while, was choosing the cast of his forthcoming Spanish version of “The Singer of Seville.” Obtained Opportunity After Struggle. Don’t think the idol Novarro obtained this longed-for opportunity without a| struggle. The studio fears to see its handsome men caught in the infection| of directorial ways, Producers bar- gained with Novarro, and the result of | their bargaining was the dual role of director and leading man. So Novarro will choose the cast, direct the picture, and, after the fashion of Raoul Walsh, play the leading role, as he did in the American version. Studios have lost several actors to the directing craze, and they are having all they can do to keep some others from slipping into a behind-the-camera existence. Lionel Barrymore was the| first departure from the ranks—Lionel| Barrymore, who was the most priceless| character actor in the colony. He picked up more failing scenes and through his magnificent characteriza- tionz gave zest and vitality to more mediocre stories than any actor in the| colony. Yet he had but one longing through all his years in Hollywood—to get behind the cameras and utilize the knowledge acquired in his years on the avenue and Monmouth Beach, N. J., will be married on August 9 to Gard: stage. ‘Talkies gave Lionel Barrymore his opportunity. He made good—so good THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. INTERESTING ENGAGEMENT 8| nies.

There are thousands of | good actors, both for talkies and legiti-| mate roles, but very few who can write in celluloid. Sherman to Make Series. Lowell Sherman recently directed his | first picture. He will make a series of stories, and by the time his behind-the- camera work is established it will be hard lines to lure him back into grease| paint again. Lucile Gleason is so much more in-| trigued with producing and directing| than she is with acting that it's safe to bet her future will lie along these lines. | Matt Moore definitely announced some time back that he was through with his acting career, and that he| would either_direct or quit. He is directing at Harry Cohn's studio®and| making & very good record in & new medium, I am told. It takes a great deal of coaxing, both with facts and figures, to keep Richard Barthelmess before the cameras. For a long time now he has been turning jealous eyes on the men who write in gelatin and seeing his characteriza- | tions from a directing rather than from an acting angle. 4 But while Richard Barthelmess can make such pictures as “Patent Leather | Kid" and “Dawn Patrol” he will not be allowed to stand back and tell the other fellow what to do. Louis Wolneim is another who will| soon direct; that is, unless something| occurs to spike his present plans. It has been the dream of Wolheim's life| (as it is the dream of every actor) to direct a picture. But let & character of | sale shoes NOW ONE PRICE the type which he played in “All Quiet on the Western Front” bob up in the studios and Louis Wolheim will never get his chance. His background of ex- rience and education should be price- less in the directorial field. A former professor of mathematics at Cofnell University, he brings to the cameras a world of knowledge and experience— and no man in Hollywood knows more of the gelatin routine than he. Charles Spencer Chaplin once in- dulged his directorial longings by step- ping out of the camera range and directipg Edna #Purviance in “The ‘Woman of Paris.”” He enjoyed it thor- oughly, but his public was wroth at the idea of losing one comedy which Charlie might have made during the time he occupled directing some one else. Never Looked Handsomer. Ramon Novarro never looked hand- somer in his life than he did yesterday sitting at a director’s desk in the studio, interviewing hopeful ladies for the lead- ing role in “The Singer of -Seville.” There was & light of accomplishment in his eye which years of adulation, feminine idolatry, masculine envy and the knowledge of financial recognition in his art could not bring. Ramcn Novarro, director—the reali- zation of an old ambition. (Copyright, 1930, by North American News- paper Alliance.) More herrings were caught this sea- son by Norwegian fishermen than last.

Mason, on Paine avenue, Prides Crossing, Tues- day afternoon. The talk is under the auspices of the Beverly Farms Improve- ment Soclety and is for the benefit of | the Beverly Hospital.

FIRST SHAW NOVEL WILL BE PUBLISHED “Immaturity,” Spurned 51 Years Ago, to Be Included in Collection of Works. | By the Associated Pres NEW YORK, August 2.—George Bere {nard Shaw, who began his literary ca- | reer as a novelist a half century ago, | before turning to playwriting, is to ap= | pear again in the role of a fictionist. The dramatists's first novel, written 51 years ago, but laid aside when | publisher could not be found for it, is | to appear in September, it was disclosed | yesterday by Willlam H. Wise, New York publisher. | This early work will be included in-a | collected set of Shaw's writings, the first five volumes of which will appear next month simultaneously in London and New York. The author was 23 years old when he penned “Immaturity,” which was refused, Mr. Wise said, oy some 60 British and American publish- ers. After several years of fruitless effort to find a publisher Shaw put the manuscript away. Four novels bear Shaw's name, but the author, after he achieved fame as a playwright, relegated them to the dustbins _of literature. ‘The first of these, “The Irrational Knot,” was pub- lished in 1880, followed in the aext three years by “Love Among the Art- ists,” “Cashel Byron's Profession” and “And Unsocial Socialist.” From “Cashel Byron's Profession” came one of Shaw's well-known plays, “The Admirable Bashville.” | Cross Found in Fox's Den. | TREALAW, Wales (#).—A silver cross, stolen from All Saints' Church here, was | 1ater found in a fox den on a moun- tainside of the Rhondda Valley.
