B—16 AM USEMENTS.” Noel Coward to Act in an Original Story for Films Has Signed Contract Wi th Hecht-MacArthur Co. Helen Hayes and Paul Muni May Travel to Russia to Make Picture. BY E. de S. D Long Island? MELCHER, ID you know that Noel Coward will be starred in a Ben He{%t—chnr]es MacArthur film which this newly re- cruited firm will produce in its Paramount studios on And did you know that the Russian gov- ernment has asked Messrs Hecht and MacArthur to film a film over in Russia, and that if the offer is accepted Helen Hayes and Paul Muni will be torn away from their respective cinema moor- ings and sent pell-mell to Russia to star in this important production? These were some of the glad tid- ings brought here this week end by a notable Hollywood visitor, Lee Garmes, who, besides being one of the world's best cameramen, is also now a producer, as also the right-hand man of the Hecht-MacArthur cor- poration, which is working wonders all by itself in its Eastern studio. Mr. Garmes divulged some of these semi-secrets in that fantastically labeled corner of the Willard's “round | robin” room known as “Swallow Hol- low.” _“Swallow Hollow” at midday Saturday, plus Mr. Garmes’ host, Ar thur (Fox Movietone) De Titta, heard all about Mr. Coward, Miss Hayes, Paul Muni and a number of other things which did their author credit. | In the first place Mr. Garmes was also responsible for ‘@rime Without Passion,” a popular and worthy film. He has recently completed Jimmy Savvo's first starring picture and, as soon as the Hecht-MacArthur script is set for Mr. Coward, will scuttle back to his camera, his megaphone and his Long Island. Judging from reports this new outfit (backed by Paramount) is an ideal setting for two smart young men who‘, know how to write and who don't like Hollywood. In their well equipped | studio they stake out their own little world, tabooing “supervisors” and other Hollywood overheads and claim- It is “Ian” and he is currently ap- pearing with Miss Laura La Plante in “The Church Mouse.” * kX ok HEN Cornelia Otis Skinner ar- rives here late this month she will bring with her her newest and fourth play “for a single actress.” Entitled “Mansion on the Hudson,” it is written in six scenes and “covers a span of 54 years in American social and economic annals and depicts not only the disintegration of a proud and wealthy family, but also the strange fate endured by the house itself. ¥k o A WHOLE flock of kindly correctors have informed us that ‘“Her Sweetheart” is really ‘The Late Chris- topher Bean.” This makes its inclu- sion on the honor roll of the “10 bes films of the year quite understand- able. Anything that Marie Dressler did would naturally be on any honor roll. The “Sweetheart” title was thankfully not used here. * ok K % NOT only John J. Payette, the head of 34 Warner theaters round about this countryside, is excited about “Broadway Bill,” now playing at the Earle. Current audiences are equally on fire with it. Miss Charlotte Duncan, for instance, that good- looking brunette who works side by side with Messrs. La Falce, Ewing and g that “directors usually spoil pic- tures.” Between furious games of “badminton” they spin out their scenes, puffing informally at their cigarettes and taking turns in what they judge should be extremely lim- ited megaphone work. They believe that film artistry can only be coined in an atmosphere of this kind. That the gamins of Holly- wood do more good than harm to their pictures, and that the violently celebrated stars are violently unneces- sary. Mr. Garmes spoke all this with modesty, but also with the assurance that he knows that he and his con- ferees are right. A man who has been behind the film industry’s screen since 1915; a man who made history in the silent days with “The Duchess and the Waiter” and again in the talkie days with “Zoo in Budapest,” he reflects great credit on his profes- sion and seems destined to snatch a nice hunk of fame again before the old year becomes the new. b His wife, by the way, Ruth Hall, is that talented young lady you saw op- posite Eddie Cantor in “The Kid From Spain.” * X Xk x ONIGHT'S openings will include “Mrs. Moonlight” at the Belasco and the Abbey Players in “The Plough and the Stars” at the National. “The Church Mouse” opens today at the Metropolitan. * Ok X X ‘HAT new British actor’s name is not “Ina” Hunter as the theater “ads” today would have you believe. Troupers Glimpses of Stage Folk in Washington. S'POSE we say the man was a natu- | ral gypsy? A laugh for you?| Imagine the great hulking, laughing Mr. Ash, Paul Ash, trouping around with an itinerant Hungarian orches- tra. Thisshuge, dominating, babalistic fellow was then a boy of 9 years. Small, slightly harassed by his own ambitions. A petty drummer. But he ran away from home, his Wisconsin home; cast his fate with the tempera- mental Hungarians, played drums, beat the tom-tom manfully and well. Between that day and this year of our show business, 1935, this week of Mr. Ash’s appearance as m. c. of a goodly stage show at the Earle The- ater, many things have transpired. Many a glass of champagne has run under the bridge since young Paul Ash decided to learn piano, taught himself, picked up tricks from wan- dering minstrels of the ivory keys. The young fellow had a gift for it. He learned easily, made friends with even less effort. Back in 1914 he had a band called Paul Ash’s Rag-O- Maniacs. Ragtime stuff. Paul White- man was a violinist in the band, doubling from his duties as first viola of the San Francisco Symphony. Do you remember ragtime? A queer predecessor of jazz. The one-step ver- sion, in advance of Walter Handley's “St. Louis Blues” and the pieces that made over all dance bands. The cake walk preceded it. The camel walk was a step-child. Ash had played the rags and waltzes, the mixture of heat and hot-house plants in popular music ere jazz reached its stride. With it his personality came into bloom. He had a California band. Came to St. Louis and was captured by the town for three years. Made himself known as an excellent m. c. when the picture house units swung into popularity. Since then show business has been one long, guffaw- ing smile for him. Terrell in the Warner Bros. offices (and who is also a swimming cham- | pion—she having swum like a bear | for the Ambassador Hotel swimming team recently), attended a perform- |ance of the film Friday and was somewhat surprised when the gentle- man next to her suddenly turned to her and with eyes ablaze yelled “Je'z j\\hat a race! whoopee!” and bounced up and down with great glee. Miss Duncan, who was of course glad that he was enjoying the picture, said nothing—but being a lady indi- cated that she was surprised at being thus strangely addressed. So the man, being a gentleman too, turned to her in the next instant, bowed low and said “Excuse me lady, I won't do that again—really—I ain't used to doing such things. No— but—Je'z that was a swell race wasn't it?” and Miss Duncan, being of a kindly dispo- sition, said ‘Je’z—yes but it was” | before she departed. | * K K k¥ GENE FORD is now wearing brown shoes with his dinner jacket. . . .

A great and worthy in- fluence in the theater, he is being particularly mourned locally by Edith Allen and Tony Hardt, who studied under him at Yale. . . . Clifford Brooke not only directed “A Lady De- tained,” which is opening Wednesday at the Ambassador Theater in New York, but he is elso playing in it. DANCER IN RECITAL. Michael Logan of New York, & member of the Charles Weidman Dancers, will appear with the Marian Chace Dancers at a recital to be held next Tuesday at Roosevelt Auditorium under the auspices of the Community Center Department. The recital will begin at 8:30 p.m. Mrs. William H. King, wife of Senator King of Utah, is among the patronesses for the affair. Sterling Stamford, a former mem- ber of the Denishawn Dancers, also will appear in the recital. Lyman Mc- Crary, Victor Neal and Grace Powell will be accompanists. MUSIC CLUB MEETS. The Felicia Rybier Music Club will meet Wednesday. An interesting pro- gram will be given by Paul Breiten- berg, violinist, who will play the “Cesar Frank Sonata” with Cecily Adams Brown. Carolyn Schonthal, dramatic soprano, will give several numbers, with Stanley Rayfleld, ac- companist, and Villa Sample, pianist, will play. A reading on Cesar Frank will also be given.

Opens his great _ mouth and bel- lows like the bull of Bashan when the audience takes to something he thinks good. Looks at times as if he'd broaden that genial maw until he swallowed himself. Off stage he is affable and frank. Works whatever hours seem neces- sary, talks with musicians in their own language, quarrels in friendly fashion with soloists who have their own notions anent solos. “Whiteman,” he says, “was a rare bird. A temperamental viola player. Most of them are humdrum.” Well, there you have Mr. Ash's Whiteman. There you also have Mr. Ash. We could use more of such friendly effrontery.

POLICEMAN AND FAMILY FOUND SHOT TO DEATH Wife Believed to Have Slain Hus- band and Son and Then Killed Herself. By the Associated Press. MERCED, California, January 7.— State Highway Patrolman Thomas H. Sheldon, 35, his wife and their 9- year-old son Richard were found shot to death in their home yesterday under circumstances which Detective Merle Moore said indicated double murder and suicide. Moore theorized that Mrs. Sheldon, driven to desperation by ill health, | had done the killing. ‘Three cartridges were found in Mrs. Sheldon’s pistol and all six of those in Sheldon’s service revolver had been fired. The bodies were found by a neigh- bor boy who looked into a window to see why Richard had failed to join him in play.

Jean Bedini is one of the ablest showmen building burlesque attrac- | tions, and his “Peek-a-Boo,” which | opened yesterday at the Gayety, is as- sisted by Jimmy Lake, who brings in | Ann Norton as the extra added attrac- | tion and holds over charming Joan Dare from last week's show. The show is tunefully scored, mount- | ed colorfully, moves swiftly and dis- plays much * feminine pulchritude. Miss Norton is hailed as “the world's most beautiful girl.” And she can sing. Miss Dare is another beauty and spe- cialty artist. The song numbers are taken care of by Bunny Bedini, a young lady with a bewitching smile and a pleasant voice, and more inter- ludes soothing to the eyes are offered by the also beautiful June and Mar- gie White, in a novelty sister dis- play act, One hit of “Peek-a-Boo” turns out to be the song team, Girard and Mar- co, which again proves that M. Be- dini knows what burlesque patrons | want. They sing neither wisely nor | well, but One of | there—stopped it cold and called for | more. | . Aside from producing the show Be- dini contributes the best bit in it, his juggling act, which closes the first act. He really can do marvelous things with a couple of china plates. The comedy is about standard for burlesque, which means that some of it is hilarious and some a bit boring. Harry Seymour and Coo-Coo Morrisey do the clown- ing, with Seymour’s hits being more consistent, and Eddie Bisland ably plays the straight roles. The chorus also works smoothly, contributing its bit toward enter- tainment, H M —_— School Has Pigs, Poultry.

BY ALICE EVERSMAN, I INISHING with “Twelve ‘Studies Petri, famous Dutch pianist, concluded a recital program at the National Theater last evening which, as a feat of endurance alone, was astonishing. short intermission, he gave three taxing numbers by “Intermezzi,” by Brahms; the “Prelude Choral and OY' 25" by Chopin, Egon Playing with but one h, three gue,” by Cesar Franck and the Chopin “Etudes,” with a wealth of vir- tuosity that seemed to grow in strength and freshness as he progressed. Long before he finished his program his listeners were aware that hefe ‘was a pianist of superb gifts and amaz- ing technique, brilliant in his com- mand of tonal color and inexhaust- ible in vitality and interpretive re- sources. Resembling more the older type of piano virtuoso rather than the more modern tone poets of that instrument, his playing nevertheless gave a more complete.satisfaction than others who in their seeking for origi- nality can achieve. He belongs to the race of great pianists who have never known the limitations that force some artists into an individuality of style in order to be considered artists at all. If one were to judge Mr. Petri by his Bach interpretations alone, one might be inclined to regret a certain lack of imagination in the “Capriccio on the departure of his beloved broth=- er” and the “Prelude, Fugue and Al- legro E Flat Major,” if one was not compensated by an.exquisite pianis- simo and a sonority that was grandiose. In the “Andante” of the “Italian Con- certo” he began to register the finer mood with a sensitive understanding that reached its height in the “Pre- lude, Chorale et Fugue,” by Franck, and the “Three Intermezzl,” by Brahms. In these his treatment of tempo and phrase was strikingly beau- tiful. Not only did his brilliancy charm the ear, but his manner of execution is so free from exterior dis- play that one was drawn with him to & deeper attention to the music itself. It is difficult to find a word that adequately expresses the peculiar tone | color which Petri uses so expertly. His planissimo sings with that full- throated utterance which is sometimes heard in a rich dramatic soprano, for Where and When Current Theater Attractions and Time of Showing.

The scintillating quality of his florid pas- sages wherein the force and at the same time the lightness of his fingers brought a wide rangegf color dazzling in its animation, The “Twelve Studies,” by Chopin, revealed the complete range of his great talent, for aside from the mere mechanical perfection with which he varied his interpretation, he caught the diverse mood of each with extraor- dinary skill. By this time the audi- ence was aroused to the greatest en- thusiasm and found it hard to realize that the program was ended. Mr. Petri added the two-piano arrange- ment of opera excerpts by Liszt, the virtuoso paraphase of the “Rigoletto” quartet and the “Spinning Song” from “The Flying Dutchman.” A marvelous artist with an endless amount to give, it is to be hoped that Mr. Petri will be heard again and often on our eon- cert course, Kept Free From Worry.
