HOLLYWOOD, Calif., July 23.—The film colony which gained many of the stars made famous by Florenz Ziegfeld paid tribute to him today. | Eddie Cantor: “I could not feel any | | worse over the passing of Ziegfeld if he | | had been my father. He was r spon- | sible for the happiest years of m.; pro- fessional career. His going away leaves | a greal void in the theater. Daring, | generous and lovable, he was a master | . showman of the American theater. In ifetime and yours, there will never be another Ziegfeld. The great glorifier | is gone " « Marie Dressler: “I cannot think of A man or woman in American theatri- cals who will be more sincerely mourned. | Mr. Ziegfeld made a contribution to the | show business of our country that will be appreciated 50 years from now, even more than at present. He brought | beauty and pleasure to millions of lives He raised scores and scores of girls and young men from obscurity to stardom.” | Samuel Goldwyn: “Apart from the | ersonal friendship I had for Florenz Ziegfeld. apart from my ad- miration for him as a man deeply de- voted to his family and his home, I ved him for the crusading, reckless spirit that he brought to his work. To | the stage and through it, the screen, | he carried his flair, his sense of drame, his color. his trained love of beauty | and wealth. T have often wondered how far out of the theater the Ziegfeld | influence went; whether this task of glorifying the American girl did not make American womanhood, and man- hood. too, beauty conscious Billy Dove: “The charm and kindli- cocmmanding officer of the 6th Marine JOWA GIVES PLAYS BROADWAY TEST Outstanding Playwrights Are,| Among Those Who Seek Corn Belt Approval. By the Associated Press. IOWA CITY. lowa, July 22.—Some- thing of an innovation in the theater world has brought a bit of broadway to this seat of learning in the corn belt Playwrights_whose productions_have been outstanding successes are bring- ing scripts of their new plays to the University of Iowa's student theater for | premieres. Already the world premiere of Owen Davis' new play, “The Harbor Light.” has been presented here, and Paw Green, whose “In Abraham's Bosom won a Pulitzer prize in 1927, in direct- ing rehearsals for his new script, “Tread the Green Grass.” Among other new scripts now in pos- session of Prof. E. C. Mabie, director of the University Theater. are “Lone- some W y Lynn Riggs, author of several Broadway plays. and “The Sea Wife,” by Maxwell Anderson. These will be presented here for the first time next Fall. And to the question “are well known playwrights turning about-face from Broadway for initial production of their | new scripts?” Prof. Mabie has a definite s “All New Productions.” He admits they are not “falling over themseives to have their works given premiere showings here. has enough good plays on hand his university audience next program of all new productions by well known authors and promising young writers as well “A play which doesn't gross $9.000 a week in New York # labeled a failure. whether it is good or bad.” Prof. Mabie asserts. Sometimes playwrights are compelled to put up part of the cost of production before they can interest a New York producer in their script In addition to the expense of pro- ducing a play on broadway. Prof. Mabie contends, a Broadway audience has definite standards for judging a pro- duction—so a play normally must be written to the “Broadway formula.’ He believes there are many play- wrights whose attitude toward New York production is similar to that of the youthful Paul Green. who savs “I" don't care about the opportunity to make money. I want to write what I please and have it given a trial.” Freedom and Originality Green says he finds greater freedom and opportunity for originality away from New York City. This apparent change in attitude to- ward progressive university and little theaters, Prof. Mabie believes, should be a stimulus to playwrights. He says a play can be presented here with capable direction and adequate stage properties at a cost of less than $500. before an sudience which has patronized the university theater 11 years and is not uncritical. In addition to producing new scripts by established playwrights, the univer- sity director expects to present premieres by unknowns whose plays he believes show pmml.se Legion Journal Head Dies.
