Movie Not Stage Rival, Says Granville Barker More Like ?fin Illustrated Book Than Real Drama, He De clares in Lecture Granville Barker was put through the third degree as to his views on mo? tion pictures, little theaters and "im? moral" plays yesterday morning at the conclusion of his lecture before the League for Political Education at Car? negie Hall. The lecture was on the sub? ject, "The Artist as Vital to the Com? munity," and the audience put his the? ory to a practical test. "Has the motion picture ruined the stage ?" was the first question. "The motion picture has not affected the stage at all, because it ia in no sense a rival to It," replied Mr. Barker. "The motion picture Is more like an illustrated book than Ilk? real drama, where the essential thing is the imme? diate personal relation between the actor and the public." "Won't the motion picture corrupt public imagination 1" "There Is nothing inherently vicious in the motion picture," replied the lec? turer, diplomatically. "There are good pictures and bad ones, just as there are good plays and bad ones. I enjoy the movies very much. They do not appear to have had any debilitating effect on me." "Is the English theater better than ours?" To this the good-natured victim re? plied that he never went to the theater and he really couldn't say. He stated that in his opinion it was useless for people to rail about the poor quality of the modern theater, for if they really wanted something better they could get it. The modern theater was extraordinarily alive, he said, and that was a good omen for the future, as out of the smashing of old conven? tions and stirring up new material much of the permanent artistic value is sure to develop in time. Clemenceau Will # Marry Soon, Say Reports in Paris Premier Already Benedict and Bride Is American, According to Gossip; Friends Deny the Stories PARIS, Jan. 3.?Allusion to the "ap? proaching marriage" of Premier Cle? menceau to the widow of a "former Senator and former Ambassador of France" is made by 'Humanit?" to-day. It is understood that this refers to gossip which has been current in Paris political circles for several daya that M. Clemenceau had married Countess d'Aunay, widow of Count Charles le Peletier d'Aunay, former Ambassador of France at Berne. The marriage was said to have taken place in Eng? land a fortnight ago. An authority very close to the Premier, however, declares the story is quite without foundation. The countess Is of an American family. The Premier is now touring the De? partment of Var, his constituency in the Chamber of Deputies, giving some advice to the throngs which come to see him, but adhering closely to his expressed determination not to talk politics while on his trip. He is receiving visits daily from mayors and councilors, some of whom have walked as far as twenty miles to pay their respects. In discussions with them the possibility that M. Clemenceau may be elected President of France on January 17, when he re? tires as Premier, has not gone unmen tioned. Premier's Coarse ? Punie One of the Premier's visitors, in leaving his house yesterday, said: "We shall be coming to the Elys?e Palace to see you the next time." The Premier raised his hand, stop? ping the speaker, but smiled when he replied, "Don't talk about that." Political and diplomatic circles here are speculating on M. Clemenceau's course regarding the peace conference if he is elected President. They axe asking if he will continue to sit as a delegate or appoint a plenipotentiary to take his place. Under the French Constitution, the President may negotiate and ratify a peace treaty, acting personally or through an intermediary. If he resigns as Premier and ia elected President, he may continue to hold his place in the conference until February 17, Inauguration Day, if Pres? ident Poincar? renews his powers as plenipotentiary. The Premier, in his talks with his constituency, is disclosing national policies. He is urging parents to raise families of ten or twelve children; pointing out the need of repeopling France, and laying emphasis on the fact that large families are more com? mon in Northern than in Southerr France. TOULON, Jan. 3.?Premier Clemen? ceau, who is on a visit to the Depart? ment of Var, was in a smash-up of automobiles to-day, but escaped injury The collision occurred between Hyeres and Toulon. Four deputies were se? verely hurt. The Premier departed for Paris at ( o'clock this evening. The various speeches which he delivered during his tour of the department are interpreted to mean that he will remain activelj in politics after the resignation of his Cabinet.

Winder Johnson, of this city, was married to? day to Charles Thomas Croker 8d, of Fitchburg, Mass., a former lieutenant in the army air service, who saw serv? ice overseas.

Levitzki at Carnegie Hall Pianist Pleases Audience of Young People Mischa Levitzki played Schumann's piano Concerto in A minor yesterday afternoon at the Symphony Soclety'i concert for young people in Carnegi? Hall. His tone was mellower than evei before, and his playing did not merelj glitter with the superficial brilliance of a prodigious technique sustained bj ; youthful vitality, but it had genuini interpretative eloquence. i The young people, present in largi > numbers, snowed more outward re ? sponsiveness to the performance of Mr - Levitzki, an artist not so far, beyonc > them in years, than to the beauties o: Mozart's "Jupiter" Symphony, whicl 1 were pointed out by Mr. Damrosch ant ? later more fully revealed by the or ' chestra. When they are older thej > probably will attach more importanci ' to music and less to personalities. Th< ? other numbers on the projrram wen ? the overture to Weber's "Freisch?tz' i and the Intermezzo and Perpetuum Mo? bile from Moszkowski's Suite, Op. 39. ^??????^??????? Percy Gramger Turns , Critic at Own Recita] Pianist Gives Concert With Usual Fervor and Pleases Big Aeolian Hall Audience Percy Grainger's program at hi? Aeolian Hall recital yesterday afte*. noon was characteristic, which meant it was also unique. Whatever Mr, Grainger does he does with Lis whol? might and because he likes to do it On his program yesterday, for instance, he became his own music critic. This simplifies matters. Said Mr. Grainger o? Cyril Scott's Sonata, Op. 66: "To my mind, Cyril Scott's oiane sonata is not onlv the greatest single composition in large form for piano by any living composer known to me, but also the most significant contribu. tion to this form that has appeared since the piano sonata by Brahms." To which we have sothing to add, except that we don't believe it. However, Mr. Grainger does, and he played the sonata with fervor and with less of the metallic quality of tone which is usually his. Other things he played were Bu soni's arrangement of Bach's Chaconnt for violin alone, three numbers of De? bussy, a Prelude by Alexander Steinert, a Boston boy of nineteen; Howard Brockway's arrangement of an Ameri? can wedding march, R. Nathaniel Dett's "Juba" dance and several of Mr. Grainger's own compositions. All he gave with that gusto, that brio which makes Mr. Grainger's play, ing so confoundedly human, even when we dont like it. The audience, a large one, liked all . of it and liked it with spontaneous enthusiasm. Puccini Trilogy Is Sung at Metropolitan The Puccini trilogy, "TI Tabarro," "Suor Angelica" and "Gianni Schlecht," was sung again yesterday afternoon at the Metropolitan Opera House, and those taking part included Mmes. Muri?, Parrar, Easton, Howard, Ellis, Sunae lius, Tiffany, Perini. Arden, MelHih, Vasari, Egener and Berat, and Messrs. Crimi, Amato, De Luca, Didur, Bads, P<rinieri, Ananian, D'Angelo, Malt testa, Segur?la, Peschiglian and Lau rentio. Mr. Moranzoni conducted all three operas. "Il Tabarro" and "Suor Angel? ica" could go with profit upon the im? mortal Ko-Ko's delectable little list? they never would be missed. "Gianni Schicchi" is of different material. Translated into English it ought to re? main in the repertory. It is *_ really amusing little bit of operatic tom? foolery. ? Isadora Duncan Sells Her Paris Property for $200.000 PARIS, Jan. 8.?Isadora Duncan, the American interpretative dancer, ha. sold her Pavilion de Bellevue, over? looking Paris, to the Ministry of Fine Arts, according to the Paris Edition of "The New York Herald."
