BRITISH ARTIST MAKES LARGEST OIL PAINTING FOR "DODSWORTH"
The largest oil painting ever made, so far as available records disclose, is being used as a backing on the set of "Dodsworth" at the United Artists studios. It is the work of Arthur Sheppard, Londonborn artist, whose oils in the past have won international recognition. The backing for "Dodsworth" was executed by Sheppard on a special commission from Samuel Goldwyn, producer of the film. It is of the Swiss Alps, towering over the placid waters of Lake Geneva on a canvas 60 feet wide and 35 feet high. Not only is Sheppard's
skill with a brush exquisitely demonstrated but the scene is entirely authentic as the artist lived in the locale while studying his pro
fession. SEITE EM See SESE SE
RUTH CHATTERTON WEARS FORTUNE IN DIAMONDS IN "DODSWORTH" PICTURE
For her role in the Samuel Goldwyn production, "Dodsworth," Ruth Chatterton is wearing over a quarter of a million dollars! worth of real diamonds! This startling fact was revealed by chance when a jewelry-wise visitor at the United Artists studios noted the gleam of a ring under an arc light. Utter secrecy of the genuineness of the gems has been maintained for two reasons: first, the Lloyds! policy covering the picture prohibited publicity; second, some of the baubles are not Miss Chatterton's, but borrowed from friends for whom they could never be replaced. The prize of the collection is an enormous solitaire as big as the first joint of the star's finger valued at $110,000. A dinner ring, with an inch-long slender oval of diamond is worth $33,000. The other pieces, that bring the total to a king's ransom, are bracelets and pendants. During the entire time the jewelry has been worn before the cameras, Studio Chief of Police Frank Corey and one of his officers have been constantly on the set, and the guns strapped under their coats haven't been loaded with blanks. Printing of this won't violate the insurance policy, Since the picture is now finished.

MERLE OBERON TO WEAR BRITISH TWEEDS IN GOLDWYN PRODUCTION
A shipment of specially woven tweeds, from original designs by Omar Kiam, Samuel Goldwyn's noted costume designer, is on its way from
the famous Linton Mills at Cumberland, England, for the use of Merle Oberon in her forthcoming picture, "Love Under Fire." The filn, dealing with a little known phase of the Irish rebellion, with scenes laid in both England and Ireland, will give Miss Oberon her first opportunity in American pictures to wear a large number of lavish gowns. In order to maintain absolute authenticity in materials for the garments, Kiam found it necessary to send abroad for the tweeds.
