War Between the Sexes
More Violent in Films
Hollywood Arranges Brilliant Series
Of Bouts Between Boys and Girls,
Some of Them in Glamour Group
By JAY CARMODY.
Mass violence, no, but the intimate, personal kind involving man to
man or no lady to no lady, Hollywood fairly dotes om that today.
The fruity stuff it is canning right now for the future delight of its
patrons is fairly redolent with the kind of action that usually comes under
the jurisdiction of the boxing commission. Actually, the studio which
does not have a bit of fist tossing, scratching, biting or kicking in a script
or two is as dated as an Eugenie*,
hat. Last year, one could have j
said as dated ‘‘as the bustle,’’ but

pugilistic careers in preparation in
Hollywood is that of Bette Davis,
flyweight blond, who heretofore has
been a sensation in other branches
of the cinema art. Miss Davis,
however, is in training now for her
portrait of “Calamity Jane.” a roist
ering lass who was a big shot in
cafe society on the frontier. Miss
Davis will have two goes at physical
combat in that one. What with
James Cagney, Pat O’Brien, Hum
phrey Bogart and a few other fist
swingers like that around, Warner’s
have perhaps the best faculty in
Hollywood for educating Miss Davis
in the now womanly art of slugging
it out with the other gal.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, which last
year promoted the Goddard-Russell
combat for fight fans, is ballyhooing
another right now which it prom
ises will be the masterpiece of its
career. The scrap in question is
that between Marion Martin, a
kind of mammoth blond, and Car
lotta Monte in “Boom Town.'.’

Cross Roads May Try Mirrors;
Roadside Back to Melodrama
By HARRY MacARTHIJR.
Today we ponder the fates of Charles and George Hohein and Neil
Linger. Fate, of course, may not be just the word, may be a subject
about which these three gentlemen, who are the Cross Roads Theater's
producing triumvirate, are sensitive. The boys, you see, are in a quandary,
not just an ordinary, every-day quandary, but one embellished with fili
greed foreboding. It is, according to a report smuggled in from Virginia
by a trusted Confederate spy, like*:
this:
Next Monday night Director How
ard F. Wentworth hopes to unveil
his treatment of “The Skull,” Cross
Roads’ shriek-and-groan special of
the season. This bargain bundle
of horror contrived by Bernard J. j
McOwen and Harry E. Humphrey
contains virtually all the induce
ments to chills capable of being
paraded across the stage, but the
Hoheins and Linger are playing with
an idea involving “extra added’’
hair-raisers.
The hayloft impressarios have
been conferring oft these evenings
with a citizen who claims he can
make anything and or everything
on a stage disappear—and it is done
with mirrors, plus lights and some
special element about which he is
very secretive.
According to the spy's non-confl
dential report this mysterious citi
zen, who, legend says, made Brad
dock’s army disappear as it passed
: through Baileys Cross Roads, only
to banish this shame the other side
of Leesburg, then a grove of maples,
invented his system a number of
years ago. Nothing has disappeared
so far, however, but customers.
Houdini, so the story goes, was
about to buy the disappearing act,
i but Houdini died just before the deal
was to have been closed. Thurston,
| also a pretty fair magician in his
j way, next was approached. But he,
i too, passed on without signing a
| contract.
The Hoheins and Linger are no
end enthusiastic about the prospect
i of making things vanish at will, in
cluding actors, or parts thereof,
but the thought of the fates of those
previous illustrious prospective cus
tomers gives them pause. The Ho
I heins and Linger harbor within a
fiery devotion to the stage and their
theater. Heretofore, however, they
have not been confronted with the
prospect of making the supreme sac
rifice for their art.
All things are being considered
pro and con, including the inventor’s
assurance that no jinx would be
mfn enough to attack three produc
ers at once, and the suggestion that
| the poltergeist of mirrors and lights
might get out of hand and make the
whole hayloft theater disappear one
minute before curtain time. Prob
ably the decision of the Cross Roads
producers will not be known until
next Monday night. Then if. say,
Ted Field's ears come out of the
wings without the rest of Ted Field,
you will know the Hoheins and
Linger have decided to be men, npt
field mice.

Tonight the Roadside Theater re
verts for the coming fortnight to
its and its audiences’ first love
melodrama in the manner unre
strained. This one is to be "Sweet
brier,” an affair which, according
to all advance reports, rumors and
out-and-out publicity yarns, is just
what a melodrama should be. It
has two dved-in-the-crepe hair
mustache villians, plus several lesser
experts in evil deeds: the heroine is
young, beautiful and spirited; the
hero is handsome and noble; the
emotional and physical struggles be
tween good and evil are strong and
replete with excitement.
And that isn’t all. For the first
time since “'Wizard of the Wave,”
back in 1937, there is a dual role,
involving, as In the earlier produc
tion, twin brothers, one good and
one bad. Kenneth Banghart, new
to the Roadside but well known to
Civic Theater audiences, plays the
twin part, and it's getting him down.
He dashes in and out, fighting first
as a good man, later *as a villain,
finally has named the theater the
"Roadside Reducing Academy.”
Claims his belt has been tightened
three notches since rehearsals
started.
No Roadside melodrama would be
complete, of course, without its
entr'acte. This one will be “Don’t
Go in the Lion's Cage Tonight,”
sung by Betty Brunstetter, Ted Til
ler, Natalie Core, Norman Rose,
Florence Konold and Larry Law
rence. Others in the play, who won't
care a hoot vocally whether or not
you go in a lion’s cage tonight, are
Anne Ives, Ralf Nicolson, John
Hand, Jack Salamanca, Frank Cro
nin and Robert Colvin.

Cinema’s 'Ziegfeld Girl’
To Be Minus a Ziegfeld
By HAROLD HEFFERNAN.
_ , HOLLYWOOD.
Their not-too-private affairs:
Common sense and good showmanship are apparently being applied
to the character of Florenz Ziegfeld in "The Ziegfeld Girl,” which goes
into production shortly at M-G-M
Since the story is about the girls glorified by the great showman, the
Ziegfeld role cannot be a major one.'
Naturally, a star like William Powell
couldn’t be placed in. a minor part,
yet the world remembers Powell as
Ziegfeld in “The Great Ziegfeld’’ of
five years ago. Hence, throughout
the picture, Ziegfeld never appears.
The audience, however, will always
be conscious of the fact that he’s
close at hand and that his influence
is felt.
Actually everything in the plot
will be motivated by Ziegfeld—yet
he’ll never be seen. There is some
talk about giving him an occasional
off-stage voice, but this hasn’t been
decided upon. Regardless of that,
it promises to be a unique unseen
character.

National Symphony Offers
Choice Initial Program
Dr. Kindler Appears to Be in Specially
Inspired Mood at Concert
Benefiting Red Cross
By ELENA Dp SAYN.
There were many thousands to
greet Dr. Hans Kindler at the
Water Gate last night, as he stepped
on the platform to conduct the first
concert of the National Symphony's
fourth summer season. Long before
the hour, people came from all
directions to obtain point of vantage
on the road, on the adjacent bridges
and to push their way into the
amphitheater, where a new, im
proved seating plan assured a better
view of the stage. Set farther
away from the shore by many feet
stood the shell. Mounted by an
American and a Red Cross flag at
each end, a leisurely watercraft at
its sides, the shell formed a grace
ful center in a peaceful landscape,
shaded by the slopes of Virginia in
the back.
As the orchestra broke into the
National Anthem followed by the
festive strains of the overtrue to
Glinka’s “Russian and Ludmilla,”
a more natural volume of sound,
than usual, floated through the
improved accoustical devices, which
at times, however, was wanting in
power. At their leader's bidding,
the musicians struck at the music
unconcerned about the present
strife in some of the countries from
which it came. A choice program
was offered for the benefit of the
Red Cross. After the intermission,
Mrs. August Belmont, member of the
Red Cross General Committee, ap
peared on the stage with other
ladies serving under its banner.
There was a certain solemnity in
the procedure, enhenced by the
orchestra's playing of “America.”
Mrs. Belmont made an impressive
address, describing in detail the ac
tivity of the organization in behalf
of the war sufferers on the other
side of the Atlantic, and thanked
Dr. Kindler for his contribution in
the form of proceeds from this
concert. She also thanked the
Washington public for oversubscrib
ing its quota.
Dr. Kindler seemed to be in a spe
cially inspired mood last night when
he approached Sibelius’ "Second
Symphony in D Major, Qp. 43,” re
vealing a brighter aspeot of the
composer's heroic nature. There
was a great deal of sympathy and
understanding in his treatment of
the essentialities of this particular
work, so unlike others bv that mas

“TOP HAT AND TAILS"
ter. Sibelius always aims, first and
foremost, to assert himself. While
this particular symphony has not
lost any ot the composer’s char
acteristic traits, its entire outline is
much more pliant. Many melodies
are of great beauty and vibrancy,
inspired by the sunny skies of Italy,
where it was written in the spring
time of 1901. Dr. Kindler added
luster to these and especially to the
theme of the last movement, bring
ing the whole to a stirring finale.
Matching Sibelius’ work in power
of expression and strength was the
‘‘Introduction, Choral and Love
Music” from Moussorgsky’s ‘‘Boris
Godunov,” arranged for concert, use
by Dr. Kindler, a composition which
will ever stand as a monument to
old Russia with its pealing church
bells, chanting mendicants and its
romantic historical figures. Two
waltzes by Brahms, "No. 11 and 12”;
Smetana’s poetic “Moldau,” Stravin
sky's "Berceuse and Finale” from the
"Fire Bird Suite,” and Shostakovich's
humorous “Golden Age Polka”
concluded the program, to which
several encores were added: Kreis
ler’s “Liebesleid,” “Wedding March”
from Mozart’s “Marriage of Figaro,”
arranged by Dr. Kindler; "Prelude
to Act 3” to Wagner’s “Lohengrin”
and Moussorgsky's “Chanson Russe.”
The next Sunset Symphony con
cert will take place Wednesday eve
ning, with the participation of
Jessica Dragonete, famous radio and
concert singer.
Generals Wanted
Actors to portray Gens. Robert
E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, George
Custer and Pierre Beauregard are
