There has been a mad rush by the photoplay producers to sign up all the former famous stars of the stage 1 and some fabulous salaries have been reported. The producers of Bluebird photo- plays have said that it is not the star that should draw, but the play. On this basis they claim they can produce a good play with an almost unknown cast and so long as the acting is good the play should please better than a medium play with a great star in the leading role. J. I’g Calvert, local Bluebird man- ager, speaking on the subject, said: “Our company believes, and the crit- ics have upheld them, that the audi- ence enjoys a play or not according | to the story it tells and the way it is | directed. There is a difference of | opinion on this by some and our con- tinuous advertising of high class plays will sooner or later cause a reversal of the popular thought that a play must have a great star in order to en- tertain. Of course, we have stars too, but only to make the plays better. We are producing photoplays, not stars.” = Wednesday, RusseLl DIAMOND Roomxr WarwrcK AT -THE SUN rt of a Hero;" “Shielding Shadow” day, with “Gran Police Reporter,” which shows a s daring exploits by a news urday, a three-reel drama, a two-reel Key- stone and ‘he Hasards of Helen.” Ed- win Stevens' organ recitals at every show are attracting the attention of patrons from many parts of the city.
