"Many Were Called But Few Were
Chosen" For Erstwhile Tango
One of the famous Parisian dance
palaces of prewar days, which since
has been the target for reformers'
arrows, was constructed on the
grounds of Metro's West Coast stu
dios in Hollywood. Cat., as a setting
for one scene of "The Four Horse
men of the Apocalypse," which is
to be the attraction at the Brandcis
theater this week on a return en
gagement. The scene shows vividly the mad
dance craze which struck Paris im
mediately before the European cat
aclysm. Every detail was carried
out faithfully according to plans and
descriptions of the original Parisian
palace, furnished by Mons. Jacques
D'Auray, who handled the French
technicalities of the production. A
French officer himself, Mons
D'Auray fought during the entire
duration of the war, was wounded
several times, and finally placed in
the Intelligence branch of the serv
ice. In this capacity, he came to the
United States, where he met - and
married the daughter of an Oregon
ian newspaper owner. He and his
wife live in Los Angeles, while Mons
D'Auray engages in picture work.
.Valentino, A Lover.
In the Parisian dance resort
scene, Rudolph Valentino, who as
Julio Desnoyers, youthful hero of
the story, has caused many fem
inine hearts to go pit-a-pat, is called
upon to execute some famous Tango
and Maxixe dances for which he
gained international reputation. This
dance palace also sees the growth
and development of the love affair
between Julio and beautiful Mar
guerite Lauruer, wife of the French
senator Alice Terry, as Marguer

from Mr. Valentino in the intricacies
of the South American dr.nces. A
Former Bathing Beauty
Now a Real Celebrity
As careers are recokened, Betty
Compson's has been truly meteoric,
Those who see her in her latest pic
ture, "For Those We Love," playing
at the Sun theater this" week, will
recognize a talent that rose above
adversity and found it ownv level.
Not many years ago, Miss Compson
wa playing the violin in an act on
the vaudeville stage. Her success
was the result of an unusual natural
talent for music combined with a
personality that reached beyond the
footlights.
It was during this period of her
artistic career that Al.- Christie saw
her. He immediately offered her
what seemed a tremendous sum to
become the leading lady in his fa
mous screen comedies. To make
this part of her story short, she
made good immediately. Then, when
the late George Loane Tucker en
gaged Miss Compson for "The
Miracle Man," the made uch a pro
found impression on critic and pub
lic alike that she decided to form
her own producing organization.
The California accident commis
sion recently awarded $4,900 compen
sation to the widow of Omar Lock
ear. the noted aviator, who . was
killed while makinj scenes of a pic
ture. It was ruled that Locklear was
an employe of the Fox company, notj
a contractor. i
real Tzganc orchestra furnishes the
proper tempo for the difficult steps.
Rex Ingram, the director, is said
to have had great difficulty in as
sembling the crowd for the palace
scene, as the chief requirement was
that they be adept at dancing the
tango and maxixe.. It was a case
of "many were called but few were
chosen," as already the tango was
a thing of the past, driven to limbo
by the pernicious "shimmy" and
"camel walk." Finally, Mr. Ingram
succeeded in obtaining the desired
number of dance experts, and under
the tutelage of the best dancihg in
structors obtainable in Los Angeles,
the seemingly lost art of dancing the
tango was revived,' with the fasci
nating results shown upon the screen
in "The Four Horsemen."

The proposed tariff against Eu

lalamily to say Wattcrton K.

during the past summer made tur
vry of motion picture conditions in
England, France, Italy and Ger
many.
'"Our country it now tilting on

the leader among nation," he at
situ. the picture crccn nai been
a great factor in bringing tin .ibout.
From our movie the world ha
come to know our customers, our,
ideal, our country. Even the tale
of American good has been boosted

American manufactured products
were incidentally shown.
"Why ditturb this situation f
America now makes 85 per cent of
the world' movies. If we aitcmpt
to tax the comparatively few foreign
films entering thi country, Europe
may come back with retalitoiy tar
iff which would make American
photoplay comparative grangers on

"It would be altogether possible
for Europe to net along without to
many American pictures and don't

we are sitting pretty now if we just
sit tight."
So that American screen stars
might appear at their best on for

Scenic Wonders ?
Ausable Chasm, where thousands
of tourists yearly go to admir one
of nature's noblest masterpieces,
r.nd the Adirondack mountains most
beautiful show place, is the location
for a large portion of the action in
"Hurricane Hutch," the new all
thrill Pathe serial starring Charles
Hutchison, which opens today at the
Empress theater. Mr. Hutchison
performs some of his most daring
stunts at Ausable.
As "Hurricane Hutch, written by
Mr. Hutchison himself, is an out
door story, it is replete with beauti
ful settings. For lumber mill scenes
the company went to a lumber camp
near Augusta, Maine. Staten Island,
in New York' bay, furnished other
thrills on land, water and in the
air.

Ann Hastings loves a thrill! She
loves that cold feeling that creeps up
your spine and under the roots of
your hair when danger lurks and
fear clutches you. Pursuing the
elusive thrill is one of Ann's favor
ite pastimes.
That' why she has gone in for
serials. And in support of that
thrill-a-minute stunt king, Charles
Hutchison I In a story swift and
thrilling enough to be. entitled, "Hur
ricane Hutch." Now what could be
more thrillins?
And almost with her first day's
work, Ann got a thrill that, to date,
is her greatest. Though she is the
villainess of the story, opening
scenes of the first episode, The Se
cret Cipher," which opens today at
the Empress theater, call for her to
rescue the hero. She is in love with
the hero, and therefore jealous of the
heroine, who is lovd by the hero.
Ausable chasm was the scene of
the action. "Hutch" is caught in
the river's rapids and Ann Hastings,
riding along the bank on her horse,
rides in and pulls him out.
In the first place, Mi Hastings,
who is an expert horsewoman, hav
ing all sorts of medals and cups to
prove her prowess, had difficulty in
forcing her horse off the shelf of
rock that would precipitate them into
a strong current. When she finally
succeeded, the horse went down and
Miss Hastings beneath. Instead of
Ann rescuing "Hutch," the tables
were turned. The horse swam safely
to shore.
