REEL STUFF FROM REALART GOLDWYN NOTES
UNIVERSAL PICK-UPS
“College Stuff” is the thing at the Realalt studio now with collegian waiters sticking their thumbs in the soup, grid heroes running ninety yards for a touchdown — ’n everything. It’s all in Wanda Hawley’s new Realart picture by William J. Neidig, not yet titled. Walter Hires of “Brown of Harvard” and “Going Some” fame, again plays the role of a fat and blundering rah rah boy. W. E.
“Babe” Lawrence plays opposite Miss
Hawley with Dick Wayne as a football coach. Sam Wood is directing. * * *
“Ghost Stuff” — with its consequent double exposure and difficult camera tricks, is making a long picture of the present Minter offering. Chester Franklin has already carried it into its fourth week.

There is beaucoup labor in Los Angeles. Director Maurice Campbell says so. “If,” he opines, “it can only be induced to work!” Campbell, now directing Bebe Daniels for Realart, was on location recently in Chinatown. Needing extra types, he sent Assistant Walter McLeod to the Plaza. Of eighty men approached only one accepted the offer of $5 for ten minutes’ toil before the camera! * * *
By this time William D. Taylor is deep in the Sierra Nevadas on the trail of the festive bear.

Helen Raymond, playing a “mother” role in the new Bebe Daniels Realart picture, was with the original “Twin Beds” company, which played New York and London for several years.

“Made in Heaven,” from the play by William Hurlbut, is being considered as a starring vehicle for Tom Moore, who has just finished “The Flag of Fortune,” a Rupert Hughes story. Alfred E. Green has been engaged to direct.
Will Rogers, Goldwyn star, and company began work this week on Irvin S. Cobb’s “Boys Will Be Boys” under the direction of Clarence G. Badger. The company is at Jackson, a romantic little village in northern California, where they will remain for about two weeks. Irene Rich is playing opposite the star. Ed Kimball, father of Clara Kimball Young, is impersonating Judge Priest, a character made famous by a series of stories by Cobb. Others in the capable cast are C. E. Mason, Sydney Ainsworth, H. Milton Ross, C. E. Thurston M,ae Hopkins, Cordelia Callahan, Nick Cogley and Burton Halbert. E. A. Bingham adapted the story to the screen from the play version of Charles O’Brien Kennedy.

Two other Eminent Authors productions will be started next week. Frank Lloyd, now featured by Goldwyn, will hold the megaphone on “The Water Lily,” the first original screen story written by Gouverneur Morris, author of “The Penalty,” one of the most discussed photoplays of recent releases. Charles Kenyon wrote the continuity for “The Water Lily.”

Miss Roberts, who has been off the screen for several months, is supported in this feature by Thomas Jefferson, Arnold Gregg, Alfred Hollingsworth, Hattie Peters, Baldy Belmont, Phyllis Allen, Alida B. Jones and many others.

Word comes from Laguna Beach, where Stuart Paton has spent the last three weeks on location, that the director is making splendid progress on Eva Novak’s second Universal starring feature, “Out of the Sunset.” Miss Novak’s leading man is Jack Perrin and others in her support are Lawrence Shumway, Oleta Otis, Jack Curtis, Harry Carter and Bert Apling.

During the past week Erich Von Stroheim added forty scenes to his current Universal-Jewel feature, “Foolish Wives,” which he not only wrote and is directing, but in which he assumes the leading heavy role. From all accounts, this tale of Monte Carl will prove one of the most sumptouous productions ever shown on a screen. Rudolph Christians, Marguerite Armstrong, Cesare Gravina, Maud George, May Busch, Dale Fuller and Malveen Polo are among the principal players.
