A—6 Lasky Present AMUSEMENTS. s the First Of “Artistic Film” Series ¥Zoo in Budnpest." However, Presents a Slight Big E"O“gh Hll to and Fragile Story—Photographers Carry Burden of th e Art Work. By E. de S. Melcher. BUDAPEST” is Jesse Lasky's first film for the Fox company. Before he! undertook it he announced that he planned to produce ®artistic films.” He has been true to Bis word. You may view the film this week at Loew's Fox with the joy of knowing beforehand that however slight and fragile the story may be, it has been handled with the utmost taste nd photographed more beautifully &Im any film before it The film's success, as & matter of efact, is due really to the camera wizardry of lLee Garmes, Hollywood's ace picture man. He has not only eauzht the mood of continental ways to & remarkable degree. and photographed animels in a peculiarly forceful manner, but he has caught certain silver and gray night scenes, with mist blowing over the small lakes and swans float- ing on the waters with an almost super- patural eeriness, which makes this feature by far the most important part | of the picture. Mr. Garmes deserves immense credit r his work. He has created some- ing which our continental cinema brothers have up until now been vic- forfous in. He has given us a real work of art, something which even without dialogue and story material, and with- out the small thread of a plot which weaves through it, may be enjoyed as & photoplay classic Mr. Lasky has also plotted scenes which are as picturesque as old Buda- t, and trained his animals so that y scrap and fight and behave them- eelves that ferocity (in the last chapters of the fllm), which s ex-| ted-Qf them. They seem, in many tances, more important than the ac- | fors. Nevertheless, Gene Raymond has | been taught to be as agile as an ani-, mal—and as the young boy who grows | up in the 200 as the boy who knows the | habits of his inarticulate friends, and ean cure them of their various ills, he does a sincere and splendid plece of work. Loretta Young is a beautiful, but placid heroine. As the little orpham girl who escapes from her home, you expect to have more sympathy for her than you do. She is restrained and, as always, very lovely. But when Mr. Raymond takes her by the shoulders snd shakes her you feel that it might @o her good to be shaken a little more. Mr. Lasky was wise in the choice of Dan Tothero &s dialogue artist. Mr. Tothero is one of our most ef- fective and least publicized writer who touches that ‘Fulae of idyllic warmth every now and then which is required in the fl}mlot 'H:“{lnl; ‘l'l;!dm uneanny ability of ne s Allym all, what with a soft musical « 00 IN painfully true. If you are stil} able to bear with that squeal of Mr. Olsen’s (or is it Mr. Johnson?) you will prob- ably be genuinely amused. We agree, however, with a senior scribe who as he came out of the theater yesterday shook his head and said he remem- bered this same humor 25 years ago. The company includes Kay Hamilton, George Moore, Holtz and Holtz, “Happy” Moore (the large “Kate Smith” gentle- man), “Speedy” Graham, Bobby Graham (announced as a local dancer and a hoofer of note) and Sidney Gibson. All of these fall in and out of the show with glibness and ferocity—giving it their all—but not enough to raise it above only very so-so fare. Fhil Lampkin's “Orpheus” overture this week gets an enormous hand. GRETA GARBO.MUST FACE FANS’ CROWD AT DOCK Actress Is Refused Permission to Leave Ship Entering San Diego at Quarantine. By the Associated Press SAN DIEGO, Calif., April 20 —Greta Garbo will be forced to meet admiring fans when she arrives here tomorrow morning aboard the motor ship Annie Johnson as a result of the refusal yes- terday of customs officials to permit her to disembark at quarantine, The film actress returning from & | lengthy vacation in Sweden, asked Col- lector of Customs William Ellison, by wireless, for special permission to leave the ship without waiting for it to dock at a bay-front pier where a large crowd is expected to gather. She suggested she might be allowed to enter the har- bor in the Health Department’s launch and thus dodge movie fans. Ellison. replied he could not alter Gevernment regulations that all passen- gers must remain aboard incoming ships | until they reach the dock. | Miss Garbo will disembark here and | motor to Hollywood. where she will re- sume her work next week.

COLLEGIANS PUT ON A FIRST-CLASS SHOW Pennsylvania’s Mask and Wig Club Goes in for Real Enter- tainment and Bucceeds. Hester Prynne, “a gay little pilgrim.” Camille, Salem, Broadway #nd the bur- lesque racket joined hands last night on the stage of the Belasco Theater in “Out of the Blues.” the year's brightest and gayest college show, as presented y the noted Mask and Wig Club of the University of Pennsylvania. A super dancing chorus, a& leading man who wasn't afrald to sing and could handle a cigsr at the same time. songs with such lilting lyrics as “Camille, Ca- mille, You Should Have Sex Appeal’” and a young gentleman (Bernard Pearse). whose maidenly smile could have glorified him In yeirs gone by as a Ziegfeld beauty, all combined to make this one of the better shows of the sea- son—amateur ar otherwise. ‘The Pennsylvanians have a knack of rofessionalism which few other col- leges attain. Their music is gay. their sets clever, their dialogue a trifle too long (as in all such affairs), but their all in all is a dramatic entertainment well worth attending and one which any one will get fun out of. As the evening wore on last night and the “ladies” began to show patches of stubble around the jaws the fun be- came more acute. At that point & bur- lesque troupe had landed in Salem, and as depicted in Loule’s dream (Samuel Walter Gregg. Jr.. was Loule, the cigar addict, and one of the hits of the eve- ning).

The chorus was neat and nimble, the music tuneful, and two Washingtonians, Darrell Smith, jr., and Richard Wooley, were included in that dancing chorus, which was so hot that it almost tore | | the boards off the old Belasco stage. | E de 5.

BARTHELMESS IN THRILL PLAY AT THE EARLE Waring Gives New Program, Leading Pennsylvanians. 'VERY trick of the airplane and the pilot has been requisitioned in pro- viding Richard Barthelmess and Sally Edlers with & means of arousing waves of emotion in an audience, as they play “Central Airport,” drama which goes its rapid pace at the Earle The- ater. The former, fitted by experience for the more restrained and well regu- lated ways of living, here emerges as & person to whom caution in any of the affairs of life is & stranger. His repu- tation as a reckless fiyer is matched by aggressive moves in every-day contacts. Theatergoers who might be unmoved by similar action in other hands will find satisfaction in seeing the polished performer combine his natural quali- tles with the instincts of the man who drives through to his objective. How- ever the effects are achieved, there is the vision of Richard Barthelmess as a reckless pilot who thinks little of the danger when he flies through the tem- | pest to rescue his brother, a rival in love, after the latter has been forced into a sea wreck with his own plane and The rescue is an impres- sive plece of photography, and the plot that it unfolds has all the ele- ments of simple drama—especially when it grips the mind as the rescuer | departs in the final scene, leaving the woman to his brother and rival. The type of plot has been most effective in fiction of all sorts, and Mr. Barthel- mess is equipped to bring it to a faithful climax. Miss Eilers reveals her customary freshness in action, and is a consplicu- ous figure throughout the play because | of her aggressive type, but is somewhat more superficial than she has appeared on other occasions. Matching the two leaders is Tom Brown as the brother of the air ace, in a role which repre- sents youth, but is more mature in effect than he has otherwise presented. Among the others in the company are James Murray, Claire McDowell and Willard Robertson. It is a play in which the spectacular is made vivid, and the ster is favored with a veneer of strength. On the stage, Waring's Pennsylv: nians are retained for a second week, | with all the advantages that accrue from an unusual compliment. Alterna- tions of singing, playing and dancing under brilliant lighting effects, inter- rupted by their own vaudeville features, make their part of the show an invi- tation to the audience to demand more and more. In addition to a new series of musical selections, they are obliged to respond to requests for some of their most successful music of the past, and the whole gerformlnc! becomes just a stirring affair in the realm of har- mony which places the Waring organ- ization in a dominant place with ob- servers. The stage performance includes acro- batic feats by the Six Franklins, who also exhibit some intelligent dogs. and an unusual feature by Johnnie Hyman, who finds entertainment in exploring the dictionary.

PRICES ahad AMUSEMENTS Season’s Last Concert Of Friday Morning Club | Baltimore Artists Associated Studios Enthuli-stically Received. Present Advanced ' Pupils in Recital. HE final concert of the Friday Morning Music Club yesterday was a reciprocity concert bring- ing three artists, members of the Baltimore Music Club to Washington. Two of these a s Helen Stokes and Earl Lippy, were prize winners of the National eration of Music Clubs’ contest in 1931 while the third, Constance Hejda, sang formerly | with the Metropolitan Operz. Frances | Gutelius, pianist, was the only Wash- ington musician on the program. Earl Lippy, baritone, carried away the laurels yesterday by some fine and ar- tistic singing. Gifted with a voice of mellow tone, although not unusual in other respects, he sings with the quali- ties that count most—feeling and re- strain. His interpretations are con- vincing, because they are sincere, and nicely planned so as to avold senti- mentality on the one hand, or uncon- fined drama on the other. Nothing finer has been heard at the club con- certs than his singing of Strauss’ “Ruhe Meine Seele,” the old French drinking | song, “Soit Bourguignon” and Charles’ “Clouds.” Although pre-eminently a lyric singer and, for that reason, not so successful in the aria “Eri Tu” from Verdi's “Masked Ball,” he nevertheless ave the encore “Shortn’ Bread” with ramatic appreciation of its various op- portunities for clever interpretation. His really outstanding work was generously applauded by the audience whose inter- est he aroused and held to the end of his program. Many vocal awards have been ac- corded Helen Stokes, soprano, since she was discovered a few years ago. She is possessed of a strong voice with a dis- | tinctly beautiful individual color in the | higher register of much the same qual- ity as Rethberg’s. At the present mo- ment one feels that she is not giving out all that one suspects she is capable of giving, that in some respects she is | at a eritical point of her vocal develop- ment. With such a volce and with more attention to careful emission and equalization of registers, there is no reason why she should not climb the heights. At this juncture she is ad- dicted to gaining her effects by a power- ful use of just the tones that are her greatest asset and by a disregard of watchful directing of each phrase. A careless diction also hampers her. All of these faults developed by many sing- ers when singing too constantly are easlly to be remedied. “L’heure de LAMBS WILL GAMBOL AT NATIONAL SUNDAY Two Hundred Stage Celebrities to Have Parts in Annual Frolic. ‘The Lambs Club will move over from | New York tomorrow to present at the | nal Theater Sunday evening their | second annual “All-Star Gam- | bol” which they produced in New York City last Sunday night. It is the Lambs’ first out-of-town trip in 25 years. The style of entertain- ment they present is unique in that it can only be participated in by members | of the club and, as it is a male organi- zation, all parts are taken by the Lambs. They have become proficient in | portraying these dual roles and it lends |8 touch of distinct novelty. The show itself is an up-to-date musical revue, made distinctive by some odd effects. | ‘These public gambols are the selec- | tions from the best of the things the | Lambs do for their own entertainment | at their theater in the New York club- house. Once & year they break out and | let the public see some of this stuff. ‘They will arrive about 200 strong in a bill which is finely balanced. but more given to musical sketches and comedy works this year than is their usual contribution. There will be about 25 separate scenes and acts with special- ties, and the humors of the various masters of ceremonies worked in be- tween these. Frank Crumit is the “shepherd” this year, with Joseph Santley as the “col- lie” and Kenneth Webb as the “boy.” 'In dition to these there will be an array of stars. including Leon Errol, Irwin Cobb, DeWolf Hopper. Roy At- well, Frederick G. Lewis, Ed Wynn, Charles Winninger, Howard Marsh, Johnnie Boyle, Harlan Dixon, Victor Moore, Bert Lytell, John Litel, Sam Bird, Edward Caeser Robinson, Charles Judels, Conway Tearle, Richie Ling, Ernest Truex, Brandon Peters, James and Mercer Templeton, William Hol- | brook, Hans Wilson, Smith and Dale, | Phil Baker, the Yeast Jesters, Frank | Moulan, John Hundley, Hebert Water- ous, Willlam Deanforth, Hugh O'Ct)ln-l nell, Richard Taber. Walter Glass and 8 host of others. Alternate conductors in the orchestra pit will include Frank Tours, Paul Lannin, Charley Prince, John McManus and Gustave Kleinicke.

In response she gave Cadman's “Song of Joy.” Constance Hejda disclosed a rich con- tralto of dramatic power which was particular] suited to the mighty “Kling” of Strauss and Bemberg's “La mort de Jeanne d'Arc.” Miss Hejda has complete control of her voice and produces it without any undue strain for effect. What she does is logical, the voice flowing freely and the interpre- | tation easy and natural, while there are vocal reserves often hinted at but never | exhausted. She was later heard in a duet from “La Gioconda” together with Miss Stokes. Virginia Castelle was the inspiring accompanist for both Miss Hejda and Miss Stokes, while George Bolek gave a strong pianistic support to Mr. Lippy. Frances Gutelius was heare one piano selection, Brahms' “Scherzo in P flat minor,” especially appropriate at this season of Brahms' celebsation. She played it with technical mastery and fundamental understanding of pianistic effects. However, this Scherzo, which is opus No. 4, and therefore not of the Brahms' deeper inspirational pe- riod, has much colorful variety that | Miss Gutelius overlooked and one missed the more thoughtful delving into the beauties of a composition which usually characterizes her interpretations. This last concert which closes for this year the weekly series given by members of the Friday Club was well attended. 'HE Assoclated Studios presented sev- eral of their advanced pupils in recital last evening at the Sears, Roe- buck Hall. The studios, organized by | Otto Torney Simon, who is in charge | of the vocal department, have Henri Sokolov for the violin, Grete von Bayer, piano; Richard Lorleberg, cello, and Adolf Torovsky, organ and theory. The program yesterday was given in | the main by pupils of Mr. Simon, who sang an ambitious group of difficult arias written for Iyric voices. Their work showed the spirit of artistic striv- |ing of a high order. which character- izes any musical undertaking with which Mr. 8imon is connected. “Liete Signor,” from Meyerbeer's “Les Huge- | nots,” ‘was sung by Edna Marie Jones, | Handel's “Care Selve.” by Hazel Gem Hughes; “Ah, fors e lui,” from Verdf's “La Traviata,” by Lilllan Adelaide Wat- son, and rintemps qui Commence,” Baint-Saens, by Rose Bright ‘The singers acquitted themselves well, fol- lowing the accepted interpretations, and were generously applauded. William Jacobs, who was scheduled to perform Gusikoff's “American Con- certo for Violin” was prevented from appearing. His place was taken by Jack Levenson, who played the violin ar- rangement of “Auf Flugel des Gesanges,” and later two numbers by Kreisler, “Caprice Viennoise” and “Tamborin Chinois.” Helen Grimes, pianist. substituted De- busey's “Clair de Lune” for t fletes dans l'eau.” by the same ¢ announced on the program, wk played with finish and real ur ing.
