MELCHER “Alien Corn™ Opens Monday in Baltimore. HE excitement in Baltimore over the imminent approach of Katharine Cornell in “Allen Corn” is comparable to the furor which Monday’s “The Green Pastures” is causing in this city. On this night both cities will be in gala form—Washing witness the Negro “Divine Comedy,” Baltimore to see America's first ac- gton to " the lines” said Mr. Keating. Harry Foster Weich, well-known one-man-band artist (currently atop the Club Michel), and a life- long friend of Mr. Keating'’s, broke in just then: “You'd be surprised,” he ‘said, “what chances this fellow (pointing to Keating) has thrown away—the movies—etc.” * “No movies, Mr. Keating?” “No movies,” answered Mr. Keat- again at 7:30 Sunday night.

CHICAGO, February 9 (P)—How Cleveland replaced its slum areas with attractive lowprice dwellings was ex- plained yesterday to a group of Chicago business men by Walter R. McCornack, | chairman of the Cleveland Housing Commission. “Isolated housing projects are not the solution,” he said. “Rather, we must tackle the big job of rebuilding large areas of cities, This means demolition of existing buildings, replacing whole areas, turning excess streets and space into r.rn, and then building com- fortable and healthful dwellings to rent at prices which can be afforded. ing. He has had plenty of offers. He likes vaudeville and the stage. But he admits, sadly (he said he almast cried when he went by the local Keith Theater yesterday where he used to do his tricks), that vaude- ville is doing a nose-dive. He ad- mits, too, that it was the surprise of his life when they wanted him for the Bankhead play. He's never played a part in any comedy before. He said he’'d do his best, but he didn't know what that would amount to. ‘When Miss Bankhead heard him read his lines she knew that he'd “do.” She said many more pleasant things about him, We wager that Mr, Keating will be one of the season's hits on Kingdom, emerging scarred but tri- umphant’ from the first full year since its departure from the traditional pol- icy of free trade, is able now to count its gains and losses.

His new play, “Alien Corn,” is a native drama. It is also said to be a far cry from Miss Cornell's hand- some but not popular production of “Lucrece.” Since “Lucrece,” one of Miss Cornell’s important contribu- tions to the acting world, Brian Ahern, whom she brought from Eng- land, “has gone Hollywood.” Para- mount says that Mr. Ahern is the most sensational “romantic” discov- ery since the flood. He has been signed to play opposite Marlene Dietrich. Other developments having to do with “The Green Pastures” is that eight Southern editors have accepted Mr. Stebbin’s invitation to be on hand Monday night—and that there has only been one press gentleman who thinks that the play had better not_journey into the Southiand. Mr. DuBois Heywood agreed with this.
