Simple Life of a Monster
Not So Simple, After All
Hollywood Describes What a Frankenstein
Must Go Through With in Order to Hold Up
His End of the Monster-ing Business.
5T E. de S. MELCHER.
// 1 MONSTER’S life is no bed of roses." This is the plaintive
1 * A message that Hollywood sends us this morning, along
/-% with other news such as that Miss Judith Allen has been
x * wed to Jack Doyle, “Ireland’s fighting Valentino”; that
Barbara Stanwyck will play opposite Gary Cooper in a Paramount
Sicture and then do a film for R-K-O (since Warner Bros, gave
er the gate), and that Miss Laura Tuckerman, local belle, has
been seen a good deal of late on the Warner Bros, set, lunching
with “execs” and one Robert Hussey, Hollywood writer.
According to a zealous informer,
being a movie monster is no cinch.
Ask Boris Karloff, the Frankeinstein
of “Bride of Frankenstein” fame—
which Hardie Meakin would have you
know opens at R-K-O Keith's tomor
row. Here is what this poor little
monster was required to do in an
average day during the production of
this picture:
4:30 a.m.—Awakend by butler. (Yes,
apparently even a monster has a
butler.) Cold shower. Infra-red ray
treatment for torn and dislocated hip
—injured during the first week of
filming. (Don’t believe too much of
this.)
5:10 a.m.—Black coffee. (What—
no orange juice?)
5:20 a.m.—Off on a 15-mile jaunt to
studio. (Why didn’t he throw in that
butler for a car?)
6 a.m.—Begins make-up with Cos
metician Jack Pierce.
7 a.m. through 11 a.m.—Still put
ting on make-up consisting of grey
ish-green grease paint, aluminum
neck spikes, built-up cranium, false
hair, blood wounds on scalp (that
ought to be easy to do in Hollywood
these days), burned hand, aluminum
and steel braces for arms, burned and
wrinkled facial and arm skin.
12 m.—Still putting on face and
arm make-up.
12:30 p.m.—Begins putting on 21
pound shoes, padded legs and body,
and completes his “superstructure,”
which increases his height to more
than seven feet—"in time to have
luncheon.”
1:30 p.m.—Although lunch takes
him a full hour, he eats only a sand
wich and a cup of tea “before he
begins to feel the intense heat of the
arc lights upon his skin in which
pores are closed by unusually heavy
make-up.”
3 pm.—Begins to work with 62
pounds of make-up on him. Lies down
and rests between scenes. “Has fistic
battles with others on set and un
usual physical exertion. Continues
until 7 pm.” (The fistic battles, too?)
7 p.m.—Begins taking off make-off
with oil and acetic acid with aid of
two make-up men.
8 p.m.—Has cold shower and tea
and light dinner before driving 15
miles home. <He evidently did turn
In that butler!)
8:30 p.m.—Infra-ray treatment and
massage to aid circulation in legs and
arms affected by heavy make-up. and
to relieve pain in injured side iwell—
he would have those fistic battles).
9:30 p.m.—To bed, but must study
script for next day's work before
going to sleep.
4:30 a.m.—Starts all over again.
That, my friends, is the simple life
of a monsler.

PIANISTS' CLUB
IN ANNUAL RECITAL
Young Musicians Heard in an
Elaborate Program Last
Evening.
The Washington Pianists’ Club
opened its twelfth annual festival of
piano music last evening in the Cal
vary Methodist Episcopal Church,
when two outstanding pupils were
presented. Each program was an
ambitious undertaking for a student,
providing compositions of Bach, j
Beethoven and Liszt, with several
; numbers each of the less ponderous
music of Chopin, Schumann and De
bussy. Each program was tiring for
the soloist and two such programs
taxing for the most seasoned concert
goer.
Katharine MacReynolds Morrison,
director of the club, explained the i
principles of the organization and
introduced the eight active members
and two "substitute" members and
told something of the work of the
two young pianists appearing last1
evening. Ann Sugar, presented by ;
Felisn Garzia, will be graduated In i
June from Western High School at j
the age of 15. She has played in
Washington for several years and was i
soloist with the National Symphony !
Orchestra in 1932. Her recital last
evening, her first at these festivals,
opened with Bach's "Toccata” snd
"Fugue in D Minor,” arranged by Tau- I
sig. followed immediately by the first '
two movements of Beethoven's "Sonata i
Opus 22.” played without pause, al
though she reversed their original |
order. Miss Sugar plays with delicacy
and good tone. Her scales and cad
enzas sparkled, and in Debussy's
"Voiles” she caught the spirit of the
music and gave the vague illusion in- |
tended. She closed her program with
a movement from Saint-Saens' "Con- j
certo in G minor,” for which Mr.
Garzia played the orchestral part on
the second piano. The young pianist
gave a creditable performance follow
ing traditions in her interpretations
and giving a good account of herself
technically.
Leah Effenbach was the second
young pianist on the program, giving
the last of her recitals as an active
member of the club. Miss ^flenbach
was first presented by the late Arthur
D. Mayo of Washington, in whose
memory she played Schumann’s deli
cate “Vogel a Is Prophet” last evening.
The young pianist is now a scholar
ship pupil at the Peabody Conserva
tory in Baltimore and was presented
last evening by Alexander Sklarevski'.
She will graduate In June from a
local normal school, and already has
started teaching young piano students.
Her program also opened with a Bach
Tauslg number, the "Organ Fantasle
and Fugue in O minor,” which she
played with clarity and traditional
phrasing. The second number on her
program included three compositions
of Chopin, the "Mazurka in C sharp
minor,” the "Etude in F minor. Opus
25” and the “Fantasle in F minor.”
Her playing of the etude was a partic
ularly beautiful performance. She
closed her program with the Liszt
“Concerto in E .flat major,” for which
Mr. Sklarevski played the orchestral
part at the second piano. The four
movements were played without pause
and Miss Effenbach gave them with
apparent ease and enjoyment, her
rich warm tone showing to advantage
and her well developed technical back
ground standing her In good stead.
The second concert of the festival
will be given this evening at S o'clock
In the same place when Fanny
Amstutz Roberts, president of the
Washington College of Music, will pre
sent Elizabeth King in her first recital,
and LaSalle Spier will present Helene
Finnacom in her fifth recital. K. B.

GUILD GIVES
FINAL PLAY
OF THE YEAR
Has Two Acts of Near
Comedy and One of
Tragedy.
The Drama Guild last night, at
the Wardman Park Theater, presented
its last play of the 1934-35 season.
Mordaunt Shairp's ‘‘The Crime at
Blossoms," playing it in a thoroughly
acceptable manner in a completely
natural setting.
At the hands of the Ouild players
Mr. Shairp's two light acts which in
fringe upon comedy and bis one act
of tragedy make good entertainment.
Directed with a sure hand by Denis
E. Connell, the play starts off at a
walk, picks up after the first inter
mission, then closes at a high pitch of
dramatic interest which drives home
the point of the piece—that the prac
tice of displaying the scenes of fa
mous crimes for morbid curiosity
seekers is a rather odiouj one.
Throughout the first act Valerie
Merryman (Isobel White) and Charles
Merrvir.an (Clarence W. Moore) Just
wander around the room discussing
the horrible crime in their home when
they leased it last Spring, talking
about the bills they ought to pay but
can't, talking about Charles’ lack of
affinity for work, and Just talking.
Mr. Connell could not do much here
but let them talk, but in the second
act. when Val has decided to make
money out of human curioelty, much
to the disgust of her husband, the
vicar and other good citizenry of the
community, things liven up. The di
rection of a crowd scene here when a
group of tourists go through the house
Is excellently done, as is Mrs. White’s
part in the proceedings. Mr. Con
nell gels in some neat satire on the
folk in that crowd.
It is in the final act, however, that
the tragedy comes in and some real
drama enters in the person of Thomas
M. Cahill, who steps down on the
stage as the dead woman's husband,
and in a calm, soft voice, completely
in contrast with some of the melodra
matic shoutings which preceded htm.
tells the true story of the crime. Mr.
Cahill had last night s audience in
the palm of his hand during that lit
tle speech, wherein he shows Mrs. Val
the error of her ways.
Numerous supporting players distin
guish themselves in the drama. Betty
Owens, for instance, is superb as the

GREEK DRAMA
PRESENTED BY
WILSON GROUP
Teachers9 College Does
Well With Modernised
Version of “Medea.**
luaylng tbe Greek cothurni 1 drama
turgy of Euripides, tbe Wilson Teach
ers' College presented the Columbia
University New College production of
a modernized version of “Medea" last
evening in the auditorium of Roose
velt High School. “Medea" Is a tragedy
characteristic of the Greek drama In
which the emotions of scorn and hate
are paramount. The B. C. playwright
having Incorporated numerous lengthy
speechM, resulting in a not Infrequent
static quality, the audience withal re
warded the effort with substantial
eclat, worthy tribute to the capable
handling of the New College group.
Medea, creature of woe, is deserted
for another by Husband Jason, and j
the piece concerns itself with her;
lamentations upon - being ordered to
leave her home and city with her two
children, and with her revenge—harsh
and consummate. The finale finds
Medea, her children slain by her own
hand that they may not know exile
nor live to be Jason’s heirs; her hus
band's new love having found death
In a poisoned robe, gift of the vengeful
one, standing In a chariot, hurling
final vituperations at the thoroughly
unhappy Jason and vanishing in
flames. As done ^ast night, this scene
was high point of "fire-and-brlmstone” j
bits.
Jeanne Reilly played the role of
Medea with understanding, proving
herself adept at both the weeping
and walling and the vicious gnashing
or teeth which the part calls for. And
Medea is no small evening's work for
any actress. Jason was intrusted to
the capable handling of Paul Wil
liams, while Creon. King of Corinth.1
who orders Medea’s banishment and
whose daughter is the new object of
Jason’s affections, was excellent as
portrayed by Charles Roberts. Aegus,
King of Athens, found Victor Jacoby
displaying -his histrionic wares.
The production included two Inter
vals of interpretative dancing to the
accompaniment of a muffled beat
direct from “Emperor Jones’’ and a
Chinese (or Greek) gong. This chore
ography was not. however, the Greek
classical dancing of popular concep
tion, the flowing motions being ab
sent. The entire presentation, never
theless. reflected a uniform meticu
lousness on the part of the players
and production staff. The one set
I utilised throughout was Impressively
simple. C. A. M.
