Film Producers
in Keen Rivalry
for Directors
Paramumit ami First Na
liunal in Ascendancy; Hard
Fight fur Inde
pendents.
New* York, March 10 Spring prom
ises to be anything blit a happy sea*
■ mi of the year for independent mo
tion picture producers, both here and
on the Pacific coast.
The reason is the increasing ns
cc-ndency of Paramount and First Na
tional. For several years Paramount,
otherwise known as Famous Players
r.asky, has been the big film produc
ing company of the country w'tth
First National a close second. But
it appears that, these two companies
are getting a stronger strangle hold
than ever on the industry and the
independents are up against a stiff
struggle to make pictures which will
stand comparison with the output of
the two big firms.
Director* in Demand.
Paramount and First National are
gobbling lip the experienced directors
with the result that the other com
panies have to take a chance on un
tried megaphone men. The produc
tion of motion pictures Is a precari
ous business at best and it is partic
ularly so when the director is of un
certain ability.
One of Paramount’s 10 strikes was
the signing of David AVark Griffith.
Griffith is recognized as the peer of
all dire* tors. IPs first picture fof
Paramount will he “Sorrows of
Satan,” taken from Marie Corellis
famous novel.
Paramount and First National also
are seizing all the better players that
are available. Players who were
stars with o'ther companies are mere
ly lending men or women with Para
mount and First National. For In
stance. Jack Pickford, recognized as
a star in his own right with his previ
ous connections.*’ is playing leads f<*r
First National without the privilege
of starring. lie is merely one of a
number of featured players In the
films he is making. Florence Vidor
and Viola Dana, w ho vs ere considered
women stars of first magniture, have
become mere leading women with
Famous Players.
Paramount Makes “Find.**
Famous Players also are briskly
gobbling up the newcomers of prom
ise. The girl, who is sold in motion
picture circles, to be the “find*’ of
the year, Greta Nissan, has been tied
up by a longtime Paramount con
tract.
As a result of this Paramount and
First National supiem.acy the inde
pendents find it increasingly difficult
to produce motion pictures which find
favor with the fans and exhibitors

Bobby Barrett, the hustling third
baseman, tiled to spear a hot ground

the mainland. His lips are cut, the
saddest part being that all Bob can
eat is soup and butter milk.
T<»ney Kaufman tried to do the
same thing with a. fly hall, but he
fared a little better than Bob. Toney

Perry Jones, southpaw, fell while
fielding a hall and hurt his right
hand. That's th* paw ha pitches the

Harlan Risks Life
in Filming of Novel
Kenneth Harlan.
Robbing a bank, attempting sui
cide, diving off a sleep cliff into
turbulent waters far below, writing
a book and undergoing an entire re
creation, are some of the transitory
states Kennelh Jlarlan, well known
j screen star, had to experience as
Brian Kent dining the translation to
the screen of Harold Bell Wright’s
popular novel, "Tne Be Creation “i
Brian Kent." This translation was
effected under Wright's personal
supervision.
The role is undoubtedly the most
colorful Harlan has ever essayed.
Several times during the making of
this production Harlan imperilled his
own life. The first time was when
he entered a rudderless and oarless
rowboat and cast off into a treacher
ous river. At another time he had
to dive from a great height, into foam
ing water. Once in the water, be
had to brave the rapids, which alone
taxed to the utmost his powerful
physique.
The film is showing this week at
the Rialto theater. In the support
ing cast are Mary Carr, Helene Chad
wick, Zazu Pitts and Rosemary
Thebjr.
AT THE
.-THEATERS
Barriscale, at the Orpheutn
thus week, Is n dyed-in-the-wool real
ist. in “Scrubby,” her present
vehicle. Miss Ilarrimale plays the
part of a fjf’ruliwimian. The clothes
she wears are not an imitation of
the clothes of a t rubwoman; they
are the clothes nf a scrubwoman. And
she looks the part. When she first
began her present tour she was look
ing over the furniture arrangement
for her act prior to the rise of the
curtain, when another actress on the
same bill with her came up excitedly
and told her In rather violent terms
to get off the stage and out of the
road, so that Alias Harrlscales art
could get under way. Miss Barriscale
still insists that no greater compli
ment could be paid to the effective
ness of her costume.
There ts a corner on laughs with
Harry Steppe and his big show at
the Clayety. Steppe gets every otin< e
of fun out of the lines of h^s newest

Mozart's delightful comic opera,
‘ The Marriage of Figaro," is to he
presented at the Brandeis next Fri
day evening only. Cherubino, the
page, enacted by Miss Celia Turiill,
is a youth in a state of somewhat
dangerous adolescence. Rut the music
and tradition demand that he shall
be represented by a female, and no
shaplier or more dapper, as well as
vocally charming an impersonator
could be found than Miss Olla Tur
rill. formerly of the Royal Opera Con
vent Garden company. Susannah,
who lures Count Almavlva, is repre
sented by Miss Kditha Fleisher. Her
performance is a sheer joy from first
to last. The patrician beauty of Miss
Clytle TIine, as the countess, suits
the role precisely.
The sensational drama, “White
Cargo,” will be the attraction at the
Brandeis theater on March 16, 17 and
IS, with matinee Wednesday. This
powerful pin y, written by Leon
Gordon, and presented by Harry
Cort, is really an expose of sex condi
tions In West Africa and the unbear
able conditions of “white" inhabi
tants. The pivot of the play is built
around the mad infatuation of a
white man for a native beauty. The
production is said ot be extremely
picturesque, in three acts and six
scenes. New York theatergoers flock
ed to see this daring drama for over
two years to capacity audiences
nightly.
Pauline Garun will appear in one
picture, “Rose of the World," for
Warner Bros. Harry Beaumont will
direct.
