HEARST FILMED Mrs. William Randolph Hearst and her three sons were filmed by the Vitagraph Company of America at the studios on Saturday, December 20. This film was especially made for Mrs. Hearst and intended for a surprise for Mr. Hearst for Christmas. There were about ten scenes made, one showing the boys playing football on the lawn, several family groups, some very novel effects of animated portraits in frames and another showing the whole family in their limousine leaving the studios, bidding a fond farewell to A. E. Smith and thanking him for the courtesies extended and the good time they had going through the plant. RELIANCE INCORPORATED AT $1,000,000 Incorporation papers are ready for filing in a new company, to be known as the Reliance Motion Picture Company, with a capital stock of $1,000,000, to produce dramas by great authors for the Mutual Film Corporation of New York at an estimated cost of from $25,000 to $1,000,000 apiece. Harry E. Aitken, president of the Mutual, is the organizer and head • of the new concern and his associates are prominent New York and Chicago bankers. This organization will take over the new studios of the Carlton Motion Picture Laboratories, one of which has just been completed on the estate of the late Clara Morris in Yonkers. Another, recently purchased, is the Kinemacolor studio in Los Angeles, and the third is a four-story loft building at 29 Union Square, corner of Sixteenth Street and Broadway. All of these will be under the immediate direction of D. W. Griffith. Among the big things to be done at once are a production of "The Clansman," by Thomas Dixon; "The Escape," an eugenic drama by Paul Armstrong, and other features by Thomas Nelson Page, Ambassador to Italy; John Kendrick Bangs, George Pattullo, E. Phillips Oppenheim, Mary Roberts Rinehart, Robert H. Davis, Homer Croy and Paul West. To get the atmosphere of the stories, the pictures will be taken in the original locale, new studios being opened next month in London and the South of France, and, so as to have them historically, and scientifically correct, the leading experts, including the foremost professors of the prominent colleges of the world, will be engaged as critics.
