Edwin Carewe, widely known di rector, left for Los Angeles yester day where he will become a directing producer. He has many screen suc cesses on his ledger. The Critique Committee of the Na tional Board of Review of Motion Pictures praises Sessue Hayakawa's “First Born,"’ While greatly pleased Sessue says “You oughter see the rest o' th’ family!'’ Doris Eaton, of Wylliam Christy Cabanne’s ‘‘At the Stage Door,” is a member of a family of seven, all of whom have made good on the stage or screen.
