• She Is No Longer Greta,
But Simply Billed "Garbo"
So Do We Find the Great Screen Actress in Her
"Painted Veil"—"Great Expectations" Turns
Out Otherwise—"Caravan" at Keith's.
BY E. de S. MELCHER.
TO THE tune of "Annie Doesn't Live Here Any More," you
can also now sing "Garbo Isn't Greta Any More." This
was discovered at a preview of "The Painted Veil"
last night at the Fox Theater. As the first announce
ment of the film swung onto the screen, instead of seeing
"M.-G.-M. takes pleasure in presenting Greta Garbo in So-and-So,
there was no Greta there at all—just "Garbo" in letters bigger
than vou are!
• After a certain point this is perhaps
natural in the life of a great emotional
actress. Bernhardt was Bernhardt
more than she was Sarah, although
shp also tucked in a few • divines" and
L whatnots on to her name. And Duse
» was more frequently just Duse than
she was Eleanore Duse. While Ethel
Barrymore has never been plain
"Barrymore," this is perhaps because
there were so many other Barrymores
strewn around that at that rate she
might have been Jack or Lionel or
the former Maurice.
With Garbo the elimination of Greta
(although the name is still mentioned
on the cast sheeO seems a natural
Indication of prosperity and dignity.
Just as that lone staircase of hers on
the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lot which
leads to her dressing room is the most
envied property in Hollywood, just so
has she accomplished what is called
"pulling a fast one" on her neighbors
I again. Dollars to doughnuts, Miss
Shearer would give her right eye to
be called simply "Shearer"—and what
wouldn't Marion Davies have given to
; have been called "Davies" in "The
Barretts of Wimpole Street?" Ask
the Warner Brothers!
Personally we've always thought of
Garbo as Garbo, anyway. There's
something slightly waitressv about
Greta. You expect a platter and a
couple of feet to come bouncing out
at you—not little feet, either!
Miss Garbo's new dignity is well
suited to her new film. too. While it
may not be your favorite picture, it at
least reveals a new magic about Garbo
—a happy smiling Garbo in the early
stages of the picture who plays her
I love scenes so well with George Brent
that the rumors of their actual re
gard for each other do not somehow
seem amiss.

TJARDIE MEAKIN'S expectations
for "Great Expectations" have
more or less "piffed." In spite of the
Dickensian label, the picture has not
been a wallop. So tomorrow. "Cara
van," the new Fox musical romance,
, which has attracted considerable fa
vorable comment, will be shown at
Keith's, with a cast that includes
Charles Bover, Loretta Young, Jean
Parker and Phillips Holmes. The
film was directed by Erik Charell,
one of the continent's favorite sons,
and a man who was allowed a free
hand and any amount of gold for his
first American product.

ι Τ Τ IS quite touching to note the
public's devotion when a sudden
freak of nature has turned the mind
upside down. Charming contempo
raries sit back and smile with glee
as they come upon some slip and then
run to their pen and ink to make sure
, that they will be the first to write
about it. The mail, for instance, has
been a riot of good fellowship the
past few days with such loyal re
minders as "Dear Mr. M—Have you

Glimpses of Stage Folk
in Washington.
Ύ*ΗΕ Duncan Sisters have been play.
' ing Topsy and Eva so long the
new generation, which knows "Uncle
, Tom's Cabin" more by reputation than
observation, often entertains the illu
sion they were the inventors of one
of the stage's most famous character
duets.
As a matter of fact, the Duncans
«ere a sister team in musical comedy
and vaudeville some time before they j
tumbled accidentally into the roles
they have made more famous, at least
In the post-war era. than any other
personage in "Uncle Tom" except
Simon Legree. It all came to pass
because a silent film director, Paul
Powell, wanted to get the team into
a cinema. He had cast about for
stories without success, but his deter
mination never flagged.
"I'll get you into pictures if I have
to put you in blackface," he remarked
one day to the sisters.
"That." said Rosita, who was to
go down in history as Topsy, "is an
idea. I'll black up and be Topsy.
You. Vivian (the best Eva that ever
went to heaven on a wire ropei, will
be Eva. We'll get the story changed
around to make the kids the main
characters."
So they did. A musical comedy was
written for them, and they opened on
the West Coast. Up to the last minute
their friends in show business tried to
dissuade them.
They said it was
suicide. The
night before the
opening Sophie
Tucker tele
phoned Rosita.
"I hear you're
poing to do a
blackface part,"
she moaned. "All
I have to say is,
don't. You're
crazy."
Since then
"Topsy and Eva" has run intermittent
ly for more than a decade. They re
vive the piece now and again, "for the
new generation of kids." The adults
keep on coming back for more.
In vaudeville, the Duncans write
most of the skits played by the little
white girl and the pig-tailed lassie of
smoke complexion. That trick song
based on the technical language of
music, for example, was knocked off in
half an hour. We thought it the top
number of their act on Loew's Fox
etage.
There was great salute in 305 of the
Fox dressing rooms this week, for the
Duncans have long known Gene Ford,
the production manager for Loew's in
this district. They played with him in
Fred Stone's "Tip Top." Gene was a
cat that came leaping on to the stage
at inopportune moments, whereupon
Rosita would scream, 'That damned
cat again. Shooooo. Scat." When
not giving feline impersonations, he
was the stage manager of the show.
Used to direct rehearsals wearing his
catskin, which kept the company in
giggles. The Duncans were jubilant
when they discovered him out front at
a theater here.
Vivian Duncan has a young daugh
ter, aged 3. who is appropriately
J enough reared around dressing rooms.
She wanders back stage while her
mother is before the footlights. Never
gets in the way and seems to be taking
a professional interest in matters al
ready. The other afternoon, in the
I Duncan dressing room, she showed us
quite solemnly how high she can kick
already. Pretty darned high.
R. B. P., Jr.
by any ctiance ever read "Vanity
Fair?' " or, "Dear Mr. M—come on
now tell us who write 'Vanity
Fair,' " or "Dear Mr. M—Have you
ever heard of a man called Thack
erary?" or "Dear Mr. M—Right up to
scratch as usual, aren't you?" and so
forth—happy phrases which of course
have to do with that suggestion that
the author of "Oliver Twist" was re
sponsible for "Vanity Fair."
So it is with considerable surprise
and great pleasure that we found in
this morning's mail something very
much out of the ordinary—a letter
from a Mr. James W. Berry, who.
after calling our attention to the
m'stake we made, goes on to say: "Of
course, having in mind the pressure
3f newspaper work, errors will occur—
the wonder being that there are not
more of them.''
Thank you, Mr. Berry—you are the
first one who has not tarred and
fettered us, or called us, as every one
else now does, "Mr. Makepeace."

"T ATTENDED the Palace Theater
yesterday with my wife and small

But—before we could see 'Mrs. Wiggs'

Mr. Wolf, who is the pastor of the

"GIRLS FROM FOLLIES"
IS TYPICAL BURLESQUE
Gayety Show Goes Back to Old
Time Formula for Its Fun
and Song Numbers.
Burlesque more or less reverts to
type in "Girls From the Follies," this
week at the Gayety, which means
that the comedy skits are little more
than interludes between the specialty
numbers of the five featured players
of the company.
The distaff contingent is led by
Dotty Ahearn, so-called "Blond
Venus." Joy St. Claire has her share
of feminine charm and she cheers the
hearts of the customers. Helen Greene,
Peggy Delmar and Jean Bodine are
others who enliven the proceedings,
Miss Bodine's singing being not one
of her minor assets.
To Regina Windsor must go a bow
of recognition for conceiving the bal
let numbers and training the chorus
in the execution of them. In "Girls
From the Follies" the line girls are
given routines which are new and
effectively arranged. The staging is
elaborate and scenic.
The comedy, some of which is good
and some of which is not good, is
handled by Frank ONiel, Bert Grant.
Joe Stanley, Harry Harrigan and
Richard Brooks, with Mr. O'Niel be
ing responsible for most of that which
is above par. and Grant, smooth
working straight man. being re
sponsible for keeping much of the
buffoonery from falling below par.
Grant also sings, not too well, but
in a congenial manner.
"Girls From the Follies" is a bur
lesque show, built for burlesque fans,
so if you do not go to the Ninth
street theater expecting a Broadway
musical you will not be disappointed.

Many Unfamiliar Numbers
Feature Onegin Program
Contralto Interprets Masterpieces of Rich
Musical Understanding and Covers Wide
Range in Voice and Composition.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN'.
THE education of the present-day singer has taken new
paths in which he seems never to lose sight of the fact
that he must fill his concert programs with numbers that
will please the most ordinary musical amateur. Time was
when songs such as Sigrid Onegin gave yesterday at Constitution
Hall were not only a necessary part of a singer's education, but
a part of his public presentation as well. As it is. Onegin's
program was made up mostly of the lovely and rarely heard
gems of Carl Loewe and Schubert.
XNL/u many ftuigria aie rqui^r^tu
either vocallj' or dramatically to cope
with the exigencies of these songs,
simple as to form but complex in ma
terial. Onegin brings to the interpre
tation of these masterpieces a rich
musical understanding and a re
| sponsive vocal mechanism. Possessing
a magnificent contralto voice which
ranges into the soprano register with
ease, she is not limited to a particular
genre of music, but is equally free in
lieder pr operatic singing.
One cannot help but be regretful in
listening to Mme. Onegin that she
has chosen the type of vocal produc
tion which does not show her voice
to the greatest advantage. Hollow
ness of sound and lack of tone con
centration interefere with the effects
she visualizes so artistically, while a
poor legato and harsh enunciation de
tract considerably from a pure bel
canto singing. In spite of a tonal pro
duction one seldom hears nowadays,
she did some remarkable singing, par
! ticularly in the way of interpretation,
ι and found many nuances which dis
1 played her generous artistic endow
ment.
Her manner of presenting a pro
gram is friendly and natural and it
was not long before she had her
audience in complete accord with her.
By the time her group of folk songs
was reached her public knew what to
expect and enjoyed the variety which

and the French "Trois Jeunes Tam

scribe. She repeated the "z'Lauter
bach" with even more charming gusto.
Three numbers stood out as unfor
gettable instances of remarkable in
terpretation and tremendous vocal
power. In Loewe's " Dance of the
Fairy Lilies" Mme. Onegin showed an
extraordinary coloratura command
exceptional in a contralto ol her
volume. Schubert's "Der Doppel
gaenger" was as thrillingly dramatic
as an operatic aria, while her singing
of the "Song of Triumph" aria from
Verdi's "Lady Macbeth." with its
wide range and difficult vocal mo
ments. was a summing up. as It were,
of all her art. These, more than the
charming folk song group, were the
highlights of the program.
In the "Dance of the Witches." by
Loewe and Schubert's "Aufenthaly."
"Staendchen" and "Der Abschied"
there was infinite variety such as only
a singer of Mme. Onegin's character
could give. In response to many re
quests she gave a vital rendition of
"Der Erlkoenig" and the delicate "Die
Forelle" completing the Schubert
group with his best beloved numbers.
Hermann Reutter, whose musical
arrangement of her folk songs was
especially lovely, was a splendid ac
companist with an expert manner of
creating the proper atmosphere for a
song. He was heard as soloist in a
Brahms' intermezzo, ballade and
rhapsodie, where a fine control of
pianissimo was his most outstanding
characteristic. The program was con
cluded in an unusual fashion with
Mme. Onegin singing her own appro
priate translation of a German song
which was in the nature of a farewell
and which she cleverly finished by
grasping her accompanist's hand and
running off the stage.

OLD AND NEW RUSSIA
Travel Lecturer, at National Yes
terday, Gives Interesting View»
of Land and People.
Soviet Russia as portrayed by the
travel-lecturer, Burton Holmes, yes
terday at the National Theater was
literally painted a scarlet hue.
The seasoned globe trotter, who, In
cidents, Inaugurates his forty-second
year of lecturing this week, after talc
ing his audience In a hurried hop
from his apartment In New York to his
home in Hollywood and back again,
started his first lecture of the season
In Washington with comparisons of
the Moscow of today and the Moscow
of yesteryear.
First to fall beneath the searching
eye of the camera were the new hotels
built to provide adequate accommo
dations for visitors. The Russian
hotels of today have a luxury and
comfort that was lacking several years
ago. Washington, judging from the
pictures of Moscow and Leningrad,
is not the only city with transporta
tion problems, for the transit facilities
of these important Russian urban
centers are taxed to the limit.
Several glimpses of the Russian
Riviera were provided in an interesting
fashion. The erstwhile palaces of the
nobles under the regime of the Czar
have now been transformed into hos
pitals. rest houses and sanatoriums for
sick workers who are In good standing
with the Soviets.
Probably the most interesting sub
ject treated was the use of the churches
that flourished under Nicholas II.
Many today are but piles of bricks,
while the finest of their types have
been saved as object lessons to the in
habitants of Russia. These magnifi
cent temples of worship have been left
untouched.
Pictures of the great, past and pres
ent. of Russia, including the late Czar
and his family, Stalin, Voroshllov,
Kalinin and Gorki, lent reality to the
"changing of a peoples" from one
political thought to another.
From north to south Mr. Holmes
made his way, showing first a power
dam and then the Crimean .Valley,
He went back and forth until he
weaved a comparison of the new and
old in a striking fashion. F. L. C.

CHILDREN'S THEATER
PRESENTS FRENCH PLAY
"Nobody's Girl,·' Taken From
'•Sans Famille,'' at National
December 8.
a new type or play, presenting an
old, favorite story, will be offered to
Washington's younger generation Sat
urday, December 8. when the Chil
dren s Theater presents "Nobody's
Girl" at the National Theater.
"Nobody's Girl" is a special dramat
ization of Hector Malot's French
classic, "Sans Famille." prepared lor
the stage by Clare Tree Major, direc
tor of the Children's Theater of New
York. The story for many years has
been a favorite with young students
of French, although It has not been
as familiar to the average American
child until recent years.
This play was chosen for the Chil
dren's Theater partly because of the
accurate and interesting picture it
presents of a cross-section of French
provincial life, a picture which will
be well balanced later in the season
when Louisa May Alcott's "Under the
Lilacs" will be given, showing life in
j the United States at the same period.
The play shows conditions among the
peasants, the middle classes and the
rich manufacturing groups of several
generations ago.
The costuming and settings par
ticularly will attract children because
of the almost endless possibilities for
the introduction of color. Entirely
aside from the cultural values of the
elements of heroism, h ·■? and self
ί reliance offered by "Nobody's Girl." it
possesses unusual instructive qualities
in the possibilities for firmly implant
ing in the young mind a picture of
how the other half of the world lives
and feels.
"DRUNKARD' AGAIN.
The Roof Players will present "The
Drunkard" Tuesday evening in the
National Guard Armory at Silver
Spring. Md., under the auspices of the
Parent-Teaehcr Association of the
East Silver Spring School.
The original cast will take part in
the performance which will be the
first time, it is said, that the group
has presented the play without caba
ret atmosphere. The usual olio mem
bers will be given with a community
"sing" afterward.
Presentation of the play Is spon
sored by the Ways and Means Com
mittee of the school and proceeds will
be used for welfare work among the
children.
Parish Dinners This Week.
The parishioners of Holy Trinity
Church will hold their annual dinner
party tomorrow and Wednesday nights
at the parish house in Georgetown.
Dinner will be served from 5:30 to 9
