ULITZER Prize plays often are neglected before they have been given the laurel, and then, after a post-season fling in the prov- inces, trot back to town and are reborn. Such has been the case with this year's winner, “Both Your Houses,” which, although cheerfully halloed about by Manhattan critics when it made its bow, never did more than a so-so business, and was about to die when the Pulitzer gentlemen came along and yanked it into fame. Washington will very likely get a view of this play in the Fall. As a matter of fact, Washington is getting something of a look at it right now— inasmuch as, when we attended the Ribbon This Year.

A brilliantly acted piece, and nicely mounted—so that you could swear you were within barking dis- tance of Capitol Hill—it shows how a bill may swell from 2 small to a large appropriation, and what nice lit- tle rackets may be played during the swelling of it. It must be remembered, however, that this play—contrary to certain dissatis- fled customers—is not a “crack” at the current administration. The play was | actually written more than two years ago. At that time the manuscript was lying on Jed Harris' desk, and Mr. Harris was wondering just what to do about it. The fact that he did nothing | sbout it seems rather a pity. Never~; theless, he wouldn’t have bristled wlm; coin even had he shown it the light— since Pulitzer Prize plays are aften less popular than worthy and seldom bring mnore than mild fortunes to their owners. It is to be wondered if this play will prosper when it comes here. It is curious truism that plays about Wash- ington are not always approved by Washington. This is due perhaps to ‘what many local theater patrons said @bout “Of Thee I Sing.” “Funny,” said they. “Yes. But not half so funny as the original.” “Both Your Houses” is, of course, not a funny play. It is a serious and well- | ‘Tonight is the night when “Sis Hop- | kins” comes back to town. Thanks to |a note from G. W. H,, who warned us | of our Sunday errors, this play was last | seen here &t Poll's Theater in Febru- | ary, 1917, and not in 1911, as we had been told. Washington at that time was | calling Rose Melville its “own Sis Hop- | kins,” since nio one else had ever been seen here in that role. Now Leona | Powers falls heir to this famous char- | acter study and becomes the second |lady to do such a job—and the first lady to play it at the present National.

By the Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS, May 29.—Harold Bauer, noted pianist, suggested some music manners yesterday for the United States, which he called “A bathtub- bing nation and a nation of bridge flends.” He urged applause without stint for | American artists and American com- posers in an address before the bien- nial convention of the National Federa- tion of Music Clubs “Applaud them, them,” he begged. “That's the only thing that matters. Posterity is not | waiting for your verdict as to whether the worrk is good. EXpress your ap- preciation without stint. “The only way to encourage Ameri- | can performers is to make sure they will be a success—at least, so far as! applause is concerned—for the future of American musicians and applause are bound together inseparably.” | American chamber music groups are | not inferior to European chamber groups, he said, yet American organi- | zations are faced wAth ruin “unless the | competition of foreign visitors is either limited or eliminated.” | “We are not a musical nation unless we make music ourselves” he added.| please applaud and we will not become a musical na- tion unless we all become musicians, for | in art it is more important to try than | to_succeed.” Finals of the federation’s music con- :ek:t were held during the evening ses- n. g Circus Pals SCREEN ODDITIES BY CAPT.

Enlist as “Partner” | of Government. ! By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 29—With the passage by the House of the national | industrial recovery act, industry is | taking prompt steps to beat the draft | and enlist as & “partner” of the Gov-| ernment in its battle against unemploy- ment and corporate deficits. Some 50 trade associations have sig- nified their intention of aligning them- selves with the new governmental pro- gram. ‘The with which things are | moving is indicated by the news of the | voluntary progress already made by | business. The National Electrical Man- ufacturers’ Association—involving 269 manufacturers who employed 250,000 persons in 1928—voted special power to its board of governors last week to carty through whatever measures are necessary to put the industry into partnership with the Government. The textile industry, the rayon pro- ducers and weavers, the woolen asso- ciations, the Silk Association of Amer- ica, Inc.; the garment and clothing in- dustries and the pulp and paper com- panies also have taken steps leading toward a similar relationship. While the steel industry has not yet taken definite action, it authorized the executive committee of the American Iron and Steel Institute to express the views of the organization on the ad- ministration's program. A large ma- jority of the steel executives are re- ported as favoring the recovery bill in | principle.

Out Where the Movies Begin Adrienne Ames Goes Linen Mad—Elizabeth Young Appears in Fez Hat—Alice Brady’s Gingham Bathing Suits Make Hit. 1 29 *BY MOLLIE MERRICK. HOLLYWOOD, Calif, May | (NAN.A)—Now that we have gone en- || thusiastic on having a change and buy- ing but few things, the accessory de- partments of our various shops are do- ing a land office business. Ladies ap- pear with the same dress several days | in succession, but so camoufiaged and | changed about that its own owner wouldn't recognize it. Adrienne Ames has gone linen mad and navy blue, black and brown, to say nothing of the favorite string color, may be found in all sorts of things ug | costume has a hat of its own—but the | fun is to wear each with some other hat | to make a different costume. Pick the | most outlandish color combinations— | mustard yellow on brilliant blue—sav- age pink on apple green—red on jade | green—and so on—and make a new creation each morning by so doing. Some of the hats are very flat and some are very high-de-ho. A navy blue sallor is flat, rolled at the back and Wibls Shree small white linen flowers in f9e8. A brown sailor is flat, small and severe. A black linen hat has a white organdie crown and is trimmed with bands of stitched linen. It you happen to be & movie star like Adrienne Ames, whose husband is a very rich young man, you have a linen coat, for every dress and then you have also a whole rack of separate coats in cottons, silks, linens, etc., just for that change we talked about earlier. A good many of them have Schiaparelli pleats | at the armholes, but some of them are | cut raglan. One brown and white plaid linen has | a honey-colored corduroy jacket. This | is short, fitted at the waist and with heavy pleats at the sleeve tops. Elizabeth Young of New York wore a very high-de-ho little hat at the Brown Derby the other day. It was of white pique and cut like a fez in ex- treme manner. Worn over one laugh- ing eye, it revealed a fluff of lovely brown hair. With it was worn a suit of linen, in which a marine blue linen skirt was topped by a plaid linen jacket with lots of brilliant yellow in the color- Alice Brady’s gingham bathing suits have the girls in a dither. They are in such beautiful plaids—gray with white, particular scept I wish to affect and spray it generously over the pillow- slip.” Then I have exquisitely scented locks without any damage to my hair. “I just thought that out for my- self,” was her triumphant concluding remark with that littie girl smile which makes her so irresistible. ‘When “International House” was planned I don’t know what Paramount had in view. The finished produet gives me the same impression. There is a story calculated to reveal the varied and various talents of Peggy Hopkins Joyce (billed in name) and Rudy Vallee, of Baby Marie and of Cab Calloway and his band. The studio has gone into radio talent very heavily; a venture with which it has done far more than other lots. Peggy Hopkins Joyce is blonde, allur- ing and in every way worthy of:the devotion of the many gents who have languished for her. She isn't given much of a part in the picture. Rudy Vallee sings one song and manages to look as helpless as he did in his first movie venture. I am all mixed up about this young man. I saw him in “The Scandals” when I was in New York and he was a knockout. He ap- pears to decidedly better advantage away from thé camera and seemed to be acquiring -that authority of gesture which makes for the footlight person- ality. In “International House” he dis- appointed me by slipping right back into fltstgld‘ timid technique—if one can call at. And while T am on the subject I may as well say if T wanted to make a pic- ture with radio talent in it, T'd write a story around a night club and play that band all the way through it. It is the best I have vet heard on the screen. Its one short flash in “Inter- national House” picked up the tempo of an otherwise deadly picture, Cupid reports that Gary di- vides his time between Lilllan Harvey and Sondra Shaw, and George Raft and Marjorie King are still woozy about each other. That it may be a go be- tween Jack La Rue and Glenda Par- rell and that—oh, well, even overreaches himself from time to time, so we’ll wait and see.
