By E. de S. MELCHER. Mrs. Douglas Fairbanks To Play “Alice” and “Peter Pan.” ARY PICKFORD wants to do “Peter Pan.” This is the most recent ambition of the lady who has started her career all over again in “Secrets” and who, while husband Fairbanks goes stalk- ing around the world in quest of animals and golf, devotes herself to plan- ning bigger and better cinema is also planning to appear in a Walt Disney “Alice in Won- derland” film, to be screened in color, and in ‘which she would appear as the only living char- acter. Miss Pickford ord. also warts Edna Mary FIeklord. perber to write an original story for her. That is all Miss Pickford wants to_do at present! This sudden burst of energy on the part of Hollywood's favorite person- ality is a tribute to her energy and her industry—and to the fact that she wishes to wind up her career in & burst of glory. While other screen ladies are devoting their talents to being beaten and tortured and to behaving themselves the way only screen ladies can when they love not wisely and much too well (which is usually the case), Miss Pickford smiles at the world and decides to keep on the primrose path and to say farewell to her one-time “Kiki” * Toles. Miss Pickford is, of course, the Peter Pan of the screen world. She is still as slim and as trim as she has always been—and her smile is quite as pleasant and her hair quite as gold, and those who have seen “Secrets” say that she is quite as radiant and quite as pretty as she was in her Pollyanna days. But, should she attempt Mr. Barrie's im- mortal Mr. Pan? And should she, as she says, “do a highly imagina- tive treatment of it?” As we remember, the Barrie story is fairly imaginative as it stands. We believe there is little that the film world could do to make it more so. Even Miss Pickford, as small and elfin-like as she is, would have a hard time convincing us that she could treat it in any way that would be an imorovement on the Maude Adams method, or the similar method used by Eva_ LeGallienne, Edna Best and other London Peter Pans. We have infinite respect for Miss Pickford. We believe her to be the finest and the best that Hollywooa has. We believe that her instincts are all to the good and that she has given more to the screen than probably any other woman in a single lifetime. But—we do not be- lieve that she should do a talking version of Peter Pan. Others who should not do Peter Pan are Greta Garho, Marlene Diet- rich, Clara Bow, Katherine Hepburn, Estelle Taylor, Una Merkel, Con- stance Bennett, Marie Dressler, Ann Harding, Zazu Pitts, Karen Morley, Joan Crawford, Tallulah Bankhead, Gloria Swanson and Marion Davies. ‘That leaves who? Practically no one. That is the way it should be— and the way it has always been. If Mr. Barrie's little hero were a Sadie Thompson it would be quite differ- ent. The screen is full to the brim of bright and talented ladies (wit- ness Miss Crawford) who like to turn the corners of their mouths down and shuffie around being boast- ful and bad. But when it comes to a Peter Pan—the air is thin and dry. That was why, if you re- member, in the silent days, Betty Bronson won her spurs. She was small, and- wistful and birdlike— and she had never done a “Kiki” on the screen. A fresh personality or a great per- sonality (such as Maude Adams has) - is needed for this role. We cannot think of any one who could do it for the screen right now— WASHINGT “Sweepings” Messrs. J. J. Payette, general zone manager for Warner's local circuit; Guy Wonders, Earle production man- ager; Bill Ewing and Maurice Blou- in—and most especially Frank La Falce, who was the real Bernard Shaw in the matter, have been blushing modestly, but with well de- served pride. It was Frank, you see, who cudgelled out this *“Cuckoo Week” idea, and who, it seems, made such a fine thing of it, that the rest of the world is stepping in his tracks. Nice, Mr. La Falce—very nice! Hardie Meakin will not show “Mussolini Speaks” this week at R-K-O Keith's—due to the fact that Katherine Hepburn has done better than he thought she might do. Mask and Wig Club At Belasco April 28. FTER an absence of three years, the Mask and Wig Club of the University of Pennsylvania is re- turning to Washington for a one- night stand in its forty-fifth annual production. The show comes to the Belasco on the night of April 28 and is entitled, “Out of the Blues,” oth- erwise “A Puritanical New Deal in Two Shuffies” It is said that a strictly - modern interpretation of “The Scarlet Letter” and “Camille,” to say nothing of ‘the “New Deal,” will be offered in the usual elaborate and colorful Mask and Wig setting. “The Vampire Bat” Opens at the Columbia. F the novel of “vampirism” by Bram Stoker has not immorta- lized the already immortal vampire bat, the picture industry most cer- tainly has, for now we have “The Vampire Bat” an indej ent pro- duction, showing at Columbia Theater. Replete with all the em- bellishments necessary for thrills— baying hounds, screams, inexplicable hooded and prowling figures, bats and the like—it makes no atlempt to explain just where the vampire element enters nor why the rl:z- posed vampire goes against all tradi- tion and becomes unvampirish. Lionel Atwill, the Doctor X, Y, or Z of previous films keeps right on being the excellent Doctor of him and Fay Wray, ' e k opportunity to display that a weak Opj y to display emotion in this more scientific than vampire-like film. Both Mr. Atwill's and Miss Wray’'s talents deserve a more fitting vehicle. Unlike the others, “The Vampire Bat” combines the laboratory of a scientist with the ghoulish and supernatural art of the vampire and relies a great deal for its thrill on rather sickening scemes of blood. There is also comedy in the shape of Maude Eburne, chronic medicine taker, who gets chased by large dogs and falls into fainting fits trying to nurse the pitiful idiot who has cut his finger. Melvin Douglas is the doubting young detective who melo- dramatically solves the mysterious deaths apparently caused by the vampire and marries the beautiful George E.

J., April 11.—With perhaps a trifle more hilarity than they have shown in 13 years, the Princeton seniors donned the 1933 model beer suits for the first time last night and proceeded to make use of them. The suits, a Princeton tradition since 1912, are made of white duck and con- sist of coat and overalls. They were originally designed to protect the usual garments the graduating class wore from beer stains. The first year prohibition went into effect the students added a touch of mourning to the attire by wearing black arm bands, which, however, they dis- carded in subsequent years. Before the students, attired in their ! white canvas suits, left the campus last | night, they were reminded of the uni- versity regulations against drunkenness ::dl.lsowld to bring no beer back with em. Most of the students headed for his- toric Nassau Inn, scene of many a mem- orable Princeton gathering in the past. PHYSICIST TO LECTURE . Electrical Engineers’ Institute to Hear Dr. F. M. Defandorf, Dr. F. M. Defandorf, physicist of the Bureau of Standards, will give an illus+ trated lecture on the phenomena of high voltages at the monthly meeting of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers at 8 o'clock tonight in the auditorium of the Potomac Electric| Power Co., Tenth and E streets. , The lecture will be preceded by a! dinner in honor of Dr. Defandorf at the Harrington Hotel. Born in Wash- | ington and educated in the public schools here and at Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Defandorf has been on the staff at the Bureau of Standards for 15 years. He is prominently iden- tified with research on the measure- ment of high voltages by means of an electrometer. absolute By the Associated Press. Federal Judge Harold Louderback of San Prancisco, accompanied by two at- torneys, was brought before the bar of the Senate today to answer to| House impeachment charges involving his conduct of equity receivership cases. ‘The jurist was escorted to a seat in the front row to the left of the Vice President’s dias by Chesley W. Jurney, Senate sergeant-at-arms. Louderback was accompanied by Walter Linforth and James M. Hanley, his attorneys. ‘The proceeding took on all the ap- pearances of a oourt trial, although actual trial of the judge will not be undertaken until at the end of the present session of Congress. At 12:30 p.m., the six House man- agers who will copduct the prosecution, with the Senate “sitting as trial jury, took seats on the opposite side of the aisle from Louderback. A dozen Senators who had not yet been sworn as members of the court were then given the oath by Vice Presi- dent Garner while standing beside their desks with right hands raised. ‘The procedure today was only to re- ceive Louderback’s plea. Louderback’s written reply to the impeachment articles was presented by Hanley, his counsel, and read to the Senate by its reading clerk. It took up the five articles of impeachment, one by one, in turn. Louderback held the court “ought not take further cognizance” of the first ar- ticle of impeachment “because it does not, if true,” constitute grounds for im- peachment as a high crime. The first article charged Louderback did “so abuse the power of his high of- fice that he is hereby charged with tyranny and oppression, favoritism and conspiracy.” It spe:tflmlih:omended that he had discharged Addison G. Strong, whom he had appointed as a receiver and at- tempted to “force and coerce” Strong to appoint a certain attorney. Louderback agreed he had appointed Strong and revoked the order, but de- nied he had attempted to dictate the counsel he should employ or acted “will- fully” in the case. He denied attempt- ing to “coerce” the receiver.
