Altman Foundation in Affilia
tion With N. Y. University
and Design Academy.
BEST INSTRUCTION FREE!
Important Move to Make City;
Florence's Successor in 1
World of Art.
An affiliation of importance to tho |
art world generally, but of particular I
'nterest to young students, has Just 1
been announced Jointly by the Altman j
? oundatlon, a philanthropic body created
under the will of the late Benjamin
Altman; NVw York University and the
National Academy of Design, the city's
free art school.
Under this arrangement and through J
?I benefaction of the Altman Founda
'ion a chair of Fine Arts will be re-'
established at New York University and j
'he two schools will work out a sys
tem of interchange of students, the i
intimate object of which Is to com
bine the arts and the crafts. The proj- I
' H as outlined by Col. Michael Frled
-am, head of the Altman Foundation;
Miner H. Browii, chancellor of New
York University, and Edwin H. Blash
neld. president of tho National Acad
emy, is one of the most far reaching
moves made In the art world of this
country In many years. Similar svs
ems have been estallshed at a few of
the larger universities throughout the
country, principally at the University
u.ruenn9ylvanla- but on a Halted scale. |
while announcing that all three !
Parties concerned have ndopted the pro
posals, Charles H. Shorrill. former
state Adjutant-General. and now a
member of the council of New York
University, carefully guarded the more
intricate details, and particularly the i
identity of the profo?sor who will hold
i lie new chair. Neither would he say
how large would be the benefaction
it0111 the Altman Foundation, asserting
that could not be determined TintII the
project was well under way, the launch
ing being- scheduled for to-day. The first
move will bo selection of the professor.
Schools Will Cooperate.
Under the scheme, professors of New
. University will teach the science
? history of art to students of the |
National Academy of Design, which is I
in Amsterdam avenue and 109th street,
and artists who Instruct In the art
school will criticize drawings ajid paint- !
ings of the students at New York Unl
' ' rslty. Of the two schools it Is con-!
ceded that the students of the National
Academy will gain tho most, as they
"111 be admitted to New York University I
classttH if they are passed by their own i
school committee without having to go
through thi: Regents' examination.
Being a free school, the only charge
at th Academy being made is for
lockers, the students will receive at the
university free Instruction in necessary
branches of art, for which the unlvor
Mty students themselves will be paying
the regular tuition fees. For the stu
dents of both schools there will be a
degree at graduation to be known as
Bachelor of Fine Arts.
Mr. Sherrlll and Harry Watrous,
\ Ice-prcsident of the National Academy,
said Mr. Friedman was the moving
? pirit behind the project. The matter
first was taken up two months ago and
was settled Friday afternoon when tho
council of New York University unani
mously decided to enter Into the affllia
?.on. It is the objeci or the two schools
and the foundation to produce a school
of art In this city where the most minute
details of all branches will be taught
from the weaving of a carpet to the
painting of a portrait The theory be- j
hind tho move Is that muny excellent
<arpet and tapestry designers in the '
embryo now are hopelessly trying to
paint a la Sergeant, Soroila, or Whistle- |
through lack of facilities to learn the
technical details of the crafts at which
they could best make a living.
The dcpartnu*:rt of fine arts at New
York University Is designed to correct
this condition, which, Mr. Sherrlll ac
knowledged. has existed in this country
for years. Artists have been fashioning
'he most exquisite designs for tapestries,
ue said, only to find they are useless
because they are not suited for the
medium through which they must be
wrought to be of commercial use. The
plan now is to permit the art student
to acquire this technical ability and a
knowledge of the history rrf Art while
he Is learning to model, carve or paint.
fiood Support In Promlard.
Several of the more Important crafts
have become Interested In the project,
Mr. Sherrlll said, and will enthusiasti
cally support the new department. All
branches of the new department with
the exception of one that will deal with
the literature of art will be open W
the academy students. But the latter
can take this course by paying a nomi
nal fee that will be charpod. The acad
emy students will have to make appli
cation to the committee of academicians
directing: the academy and will have |
to be Indorsed by that body before they
can attend the university classes.
"It Is the hope of the originators of
the project," a rtatement Issued by
Mr. Sherrlll said, "that New York may (
eventually become to the artistic world
what Florence was In the fourteenth
and fifteenth centuries. In connection
with this renewal of relationship be
tween the National Academy of Design
anil New York University It In Inter
est In* to recall that S. P, B. Morse, the
inventor of the telegraph, was the
founder and first president of the Na
tional Academy of Design, and was
likewise the first professor of, the lit
erature of the arts of design In New
York University. The National Academy
was founded ninety-six yean ago."
The Altman Foundation was repre
sented In the conference* by Mr. Fried
r am and John S. Burke, secretary.
(Chancellor Brown and Mr. Sherrlll rep
resented New York U-'versny. and the
National Academy of Design i ? rep
resented by Air. Blashfleld, Mr. rous
and FranciB C. Jones, secretin ?f t.ie
academy.
Not only will the new di-p.irtment
try to turn out finished artists In all
branches of the arts and crafts but
ntirators who will be capable of taking
charge* of the numerous museums that
are springing up all over the country.
Cops Are Shown as
Human in Romantic
Film^Come On Over'
Irish Colleen Is the Leading
Character in New Rupert
Hughes Picture.
CAPITOL?Tomp Ob Over." a Goldwjn |
pletnre written Ny Rupert Hughe* and |
directed by ALred Green.
New yosk's finest should be proud of '
this plctun 11 which cops are for once
shown as 1... . beings, and not stem
upholders of th<- law or uniformed black
guards hounding a poor girl whose .only
fault Is that she lias committed a crime.
For one thing, J. Farrcll MacDonald
gives as pleasantly Juicy an Impersona
tion of a Manhattan police sergeant as
you could want?you're sure he's the
kind would let small boys go on playing
ball on ths park grast-:.
Then the force In a couple of hours
turns up a missing girl In the big city
as easily as though she were an auto
mobile with license plate and other quick
means of identification. It is a rapid
fire piece of work, yet no one gets any
medals for It?it's all part of the day'a
routine. Yet to indicate that the cop
per who discovers her in the park is
not really an exceptional wizard he is
shown with a quite human frailty. He
Is dlscloaed flirting with a nursemaid
just before he bags the wanderer. The?
real wonder is that he was able to notice
thi girl at all while talking to the maid.
The girl Is an Irish colleen, who has
followed her youthful lover to this coun
try and who runs away to The Bronx
when she thinks her broth of a boy has
been philandering, for she mistakes his
perfectly platonlc friendship for a girl,
whose father the lad, as a motor truck
driver. Is helping to lash to the water
wagon. Rupert Hughes has drawn with
deft hand the danger that a handsome
and engaging Irish lad runs when he
leaves his sweetheart In the old country
and meete young women who don't mind
failing in love. Even If he had the skill
of a boxer. It seems he couldn't dodge
their arms around his neck.
The suspicion arises that any normal
youth of romantic Celtic blood wouldn't
struggle very hard, especially In the
close cuddling of the modern dances he
is learning. But, no, Mr. Hughes's hero
must remain true, though It's a long
way to Tipperai-y. Likewise one has a
feeling thnt the lovers' misunderstand
ing is prolonged principally to fill in the
program. Aside from these points and!
a tendency to become sentimental?|
after the time honored fashion of Tom
Moore?the picture has the same cheer-j
Ing effect as a Shamrock. Perhaps the j
sentimental passages wouldn't seem!
snccharln6. either if the musical ac-1
companiment didn't flaunt "Mother
Machree" and "Kathleen Mavourneen"
so much.
There are various shrewd, homey
touches that Hughes knows so well horn
to smuggle into a story. Particularly
entertaining is the Trish Jig competition
In a luxurious home between two elderly
women, girlhood friends In Ireland, who
do a breakdown, although one of them Is
now a personage of society and clogs In
silks and high French slippers. Miss
j Colleen Moore was hand picked by fate
for the girl's part, and Ralph Graves
plays affably the young Irishman who
loses his Job so regularly that he can't
keep his promise to bring his sweetheart
over, and she has to be Imported by
some one else.
An elaborate Irish program with Her- j
bert's "Irish Rhapsody" and Hibernian
dances atrd Hongs appropriately frame
the feature, while "Noah's Ark," the
third episode of the film version of the
Bible, is Interesting, if you don't bother
about what it all means.
CONEY GREETS SPRING
ON BIG BLIZZARD DAY
50,000 Enjoy Early Attrac
tions and Some Dip in Surf.
More than 50,000 persons celebrated
the Chirty-four'.h anniversary of the
great blizzard of 1888 by going to Coney
Island yesterday. It may rain and
freezo and snow many times before Dec
oration Day, when Coney Island officially
opens, but all the signs of spring were
there yesterday?the whining of the pea
nut roasters, the delicate aroma of the
new born hot dog, the lure of the tin
type parlora and the roar of the roller
coaster.
The crowds began to arrive early yes
terday. on the trolleys and elevated trains
and In automobiles. The traffic along
Surf avenue was so heavy Police Capt.
John J. Hughes of the Coney Island sta
tion called out his reserve policemen.
Most of the shows opened hurriedly when
it was seen there would be good crowds.
In addition to the "Polar Bears" and
"Snow Birds"?the male and female of
the year round bathers?more than 100
other oersons tried the water and found
It cold. Work on the new board walk
attracted many.
Brighton Beach also had many vl?
itors, and several contracts were made
for bathhouses, which are rented for the
season. Of course neither Luna Park
nor any of the beaches and chows was
open officially. It will take a parade
with music and speeches and banners
for that. But the first spring crowd
| was there anyhow.

SOCIETY FLAPPERS GO ON
YACHTING TRIP IN'SEVENTH DA F
Porter Emerson Browne, in His First Story Written
Directly for the Screen, Contrasts Simple
Fisher Folk With Social Set.
STRAND?Richard Barthelmess In "The
Seventh l)ay." a First National at
traction written by Porter Kmernon
Iirowne and directed by Henry King.
One can be romantic, it would seem,
in the midst of baskets of flsh. Such
might easily be construed as the mes
sage of Porter Emerson Browne's first
fltory, written directly at the screen,
which shows some scenes of youthful
love making largely surrounded by tripe.
But the real revelation of the picture is
that Richard Barthelmess can drink and
drink like any flsh and still dance like
any Maurice.
Perhaps It Is because he is first mate
on a New England fishing smack that
he can keep his feet so well In the mazes
of the two step aboard a steam yacht
after hoisting aboard several cocktails,
presumably also the liquor was distantly
related to dynamite, since a party of so
ciety flappers, male and female, skipped'
aboard a yacht in order to have plenty
of room on the ocean for drinking it.
Yet Barthelmess gets several charges of
it and can still keep his smile on straight.
He has seemed at first to be over young
to be the prospective skipper of a Maine
sailing vessel, but the manner in which
lie still controls his limbs gracefully
after cradling savenal drinks entitles him
to command a fleet.
Yacht Han Enirlne Tronble.;
Tt Is by his masterly motions even In
such an old-fashioned dance as the two
step that the young villager, John Aldrn,
first arouses the frivolous debutante
who had mistaken him for a boy to a
realization that he Is a man. Later, on
the seventh day of the enforced stay of
the yacht because of engine trouble at
the little town, he Inveigles the girl into
going to church, from which it readily
can be seen that he presently will be
trying to lead her to the clergyman for
another purpose.
But before that happens It looks as
though everything would get Into a ter
rible mess because a young man In th?
yachting party, a flighty young thing in
fhinnel trousers, has meanwhile In
veigled A Iden'a sister Into a crap game

RIVOM?William Tie Mllle's produc
tion, "Ronirlit and Paid For," adapted
from George Rroudhurst's statre suc
cess, with Miss Airnes Ayres and
?Tack Holt. Scenario by Clara Be
rancer.
Ordinarily with inspired perversity
movie directors Insist on deviating:
widely from a story when they shouldn't
and then stick to the letter of the text
with grim determination when they
should elaborate recklessly. But for
once a producer has hewn to the line
when the hewing was good. William
De Mille has wisely adhered closely to
George Broadhurst's original in this
story of the poor girl who married a
wealthy man, left him when his drunk
enness made her realize h?j had bought
her as he did his gilt edged securities,
and finally returned because of his
awakened love?not because of prohibi
tion.
It was in the scenes chosen by the
playwright that the real drama of the
piece lay, and De Mille, by following
these, could make the theme seem vkal
even after many rich man, beggar maid
themes had flowed through the movie
machines. Moreover, it Is so many
years since Broadhurst wrote his mclo- !
drama that most persons have forgotten ,
It, so that a literal film adaptation will
come with the shock of a new revelation
to many. Miss Ayres was pleasant wlth
dut being acridly dramatic as the wife,
whllo Jack Holt seemed too agreeable '
to be mean to her, but went through
with It like a gentleman.
Here and at the Rlalto "The Race for
'"Life," second installment of the serial
"The Mistress of the World," is an im
provement on the first episode, ami after'

male pals through attacks by nejcroep in

with crocodiles adding to their perils,
lands them after passage through a tor
tuous tunnel at the gates of the manic
city of Ophlr, leaving the audience de
termined to come next week and see Just
how real that stupendous set of the
Ophir temple Is. While no more prob
able than the usual serial. It Is quite :>?
thrilling, and Bohnen, aftor warinnjg
up in grand opera style, has a lively
I tussle with a whole tribe of Zulu? that
makes one wonder if he would be open

As he Is engaged to the young debu
tante aforesaid. It appears as If the
I young skipper had better prepare for

fapable playwright watching over his
destinies. Browne has made his point
in the contrast between the rugged
simplicity of the Usher folk and the
shallow, false gayety of the younger
social set with a fair degree of telling
simplicity, but the story is almost too
easy to follow. As a matter of fact, such
| marrlac s as tliom; between the two
classes indicated probably would last
about six months, even in these days of
a general spread of culture and the
movies.
Summer Vncatton Story.
The picture is far from having the
elements of strength of "Tol'able David"
?in fact, it is to be classed as a nice,
; summer vacation story, three months
ahead of time. But at least the youn?
feminine heart breaker's lesson that life
is real, life is earnest, has not been
j rubbed in by Browne. On the other
hand, whoever wrote the subtitles seems
to have taken his Job too seriously.
Whenever he has nothing else to say
he seeks to disarm criticism by remark
ing on the screen: "We know this Is
old stuff, but It's rather Jolly, what?"
Richard Barthelmess is entirely
amiable without having to do mu.h act

except display his honest, who.o-souled
i smile and his air of regretting that peo

WILLIAM S. HART IN
FINAL WESTERN FILM
Photodrama Laid Amid the
Scenes of His Best Triumphs.
RIALTO?William 8. Hart In "Travelln*
On," a Paramount picture written liy
Hurt and adapted and directed by
Lambert Hlllyer.
The hero of countless Westerns Is as
quick and accurate on the draw as
ever, for acting before the Klleg lights
has not dimmed the eureness of his eye.
The spectator may feel that he himself
Is not as confident In coming down
stairs as he was In the days when
William S. Hart first appeared on the
screen. A mist may rise before his
eyes at the announcement tnat this is
Hart's last picture before retirement sets
in. The patron's orbs may be fogged,
but not so Hart's. His hand is Ju.st as
.steady as one who was making a begin
ning on the films and had yet to work
up to a big salary.
Once more in his final cinema effort
he comes to the rescue of distressed
womanhood, though it must be admitted
that at the start he didn't show the
usual Hart veneration for lovely woman
hood anchored in the desert. This time
he Is a lonely and Illiterate wanderer
who trusts only his gun, and whose only
lg that he wants what he wants
when he wants It, which suggests that
although the uction takes place in the
'80s some one must have had a premoni
tion of "Mile. Modiste." Meeting the
wife of an itinerant preacher in a cow
boy town, he plans to abduct her, but
l's deterred because the gambling hall
owner of the place wants to apply the
same treatment to her. J. B. hates the
gambler so much he prefers to protect
the woman?which is an original twist
to virtue.
With his faith aroused in tne woman'"
goodness he assumes the blame for a
stage coach holdup actually perpetrated
by her husband as the only method of
answering his own prayers for more
money to build a church. Such a per
version of Justifying the means by the
end may seem Improbable even in a
i haracter whose brain sags from the
heat of the desert. But one wishes Dr.
Straton could eee how an outlaw takes
up a preacher's guilt and escapes after
caving the pastor from hanging by the
sure Hart expedient of shootinp through
the rope.
It Is but proper that Hart's valedic
tory photodrama should be laid amid the
scenes of his best triumphs, and that
it should contain so many of the stunts
tli.it brought him fame and Income taxes.
Fittingly also in the end he goes travel
ing out Into the silences, alone. Instead
of remaining behind to get the preacher'*
wife and reform the town with a free
use of lead. With him p:?t>es a great
de.il of the West?on the films.
It is Interesting to note that two of
the subtitles, which In the main are
gcod specimens of their art, have been
ehanged for New Tork State censorship
purposes, so that the two speakers ob
viously have other thoughts to confide
to the rest of the United States west of
the Hudson River.

State Censorship
of Plays Denounced
by Dr. S. M. Tucker
Says Government Control
Would Place Theater in.
Hands of Politicians.
State censorship of the stage was de
nounced yesterday by Dr. S. Marlon
Tucker, professor of English at Poly
1 technic Institute and president of the
i Drama League. t
"If the Government gets control of
the theater,'? Dr. Tucker said, "censor
ship will become a political matter. Rank
politicians will be the censors. What do
they know about art, literature, ethic*
morals? Nothing. They will censor In
tellectual Ideas. They will censor any
thing for political reasons. No play
wrights will dare to tell the truth about
anything That is what State censor
ship would mean.
"The recent decision In favor of "The
Demi-Virgin" served mereiy to encourage
the production of such plays. The name
Itself is nn insult to decency. Burlesque
performances are the worst forma of Im
morality now shown on the stage. The
women in these shows disport themselves
with frank anlmality and with disgust
ing sensuality. The Police Department
has never stopped any of these shows.
"There Is, unfortunately, always an
audience for a play that is grotesque,
lascivious, immoral, horrible, base or de
grading, and If such plays continue to be
produced censorship will be Inevitable,
Just as It was made Inevitable in the
movies. The only right censorship Is the
censorship of the discriminating play
goer. As a means of determining the
morality or the Immorality of a play two
questions should be asked: 'What Is the
motive?" and 'What Is Its method?' Any
play that llos about life Is an Immoral
play. Several plays that have been con
sidered by some people to be Immoral
nevertheless presented vice as something
horrible and to be avoided, although the
subjects treated were unpl'/asant."
The action taken on Friday by a
Joint conference of producers, play
wrights. actors and the public toward a
voluntary censorship, to be applied
through a panel of representative citi
zens and a selected Jury, Is considered by
representatives of the various Interests
concerned to have staved off the danger
of an official censorship. John S. Sum
net head of the Anti-Vice Society;
Owen Davis, playwright, and others ac
tive in the movement said they believe
the problem of cleaning up the New
York stage Is about to be solved by a
voluntary contractual arrangement.
In reference to the proposed plan
of Jury censorship of plays, Mr. I^ee
Shubf-rt ?ald yesterday:
"I see no good reason why the right
to continue or stop plays should be left
to the Judgment of twelve good citi
zens." If a play Is bad and should be
stopped there are legal ways for the
public to seek redress and this Is the
only authority that I will recognize.
Any producer kr.ows the kind of play he
is going to stage before the curtain Is
rung up, and the same applies to the
theater own^r In whose theater an km
moral play Is presented."'
