October 6, 1928 EXHIBITORS HERALD and MOVING PICTURE WORLD 43 THE STUDIO Incorporated in this department of Exhibitors Herald is the Moving Picture World department, ^'Hollywood." You Gotta Be Big to Get Away with It (Special to the Herald-World) HOLLYWOOD, Oct 2.— Extras occupy a peculiar place in the organization pattern of the studio. Although far humbler than big stars they command their wholehearted respect. That fact came to the attention of several people on the set of "Ritzy Rosie" at First National this week. A crowd of extras were sternly called down by Benny Rubin, who has a minor part in the picture. A couple of daily newspapers took advantage of the occasion to demonstrate to Rubin the fact that he is slightly out of character — or is he? Berger Resumes Shooting For Jannings' Next Film (Special to the Herald-World) HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 2.— Ludwig Berger has resumed shooting on Emil Jannings' picture, "Sins of the Fathers." The picture was previewed for Paramount executives after a week of cutting, and it is said that it is even better than "The .Way of All Flesh." Berger is making two or three more scenes for the picture. Fox Begins 3 of 12 New Ones; Colleen's Next Opus Underway McLaglen in "Captain Lash," Written by John Stone; Seiter Directing Colleen Moore Opus; Janet Gaynor in "Street Fair"; Under Direction of W. K. Howard (Special to the Herald-World) HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 2. — Fox Film Corporation began production on three of the 12 new pictures in Hollywood this week. One of them stars Janet Gaynor. It is "Street Fair" which William K. Howard is directing, with a supporting cast of Charles Morton and Rudolph Schildkraut. Another is "Captain Lash" which stars Victor McLaglen.

In the supporting cast are Claire Windsor and Albert Conti. George Clifford on Coast ( special to the Herald-World) HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 2.— George Clifford, business manager of Exhibitors HeraldWorld, arrived here Friday.

Colleen Starts Next One One of the more notevi^orthy pictures begun last v^reek is "Synthetic Sin," starring Colleen Moore. William A. Seiter is directing the cast, which also boasts Kathryn McGuire, James Ford and Gertrude Astor. Reginald Denny started work in "Clear the Decks" for Universal during the past week.

Joseph Henabery is directing and Olive Hasbrouck plays the leading feminine role. Reginald Barker started the direction of "New Orleans," for Tiffany-Stahl. The en tire cast consists of three people; Ricardo Cortez, Buster Collier and Alma Bennett. "The Spirit of Youth," also went into production at Tiffany-Stahl and co-features Dorothy Sebastian and Larry Kent. Walter Lang is directing. "Wolf of Wall Street" Started Paramount started "The Wolf of Wall Street" under the direction of Rowland V. Lee. George Bancroft is the star. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., and Marceline Day are in the featured roles of "The Jazz Age," which Lynn Shores is directing for F B O. As the title suggests, it is a story of modern youth and its continual round of night club life. Columbia started two: "The Apache," in which Margaret Livingston has the featured (Conitnued on page 46) — in production "REDSKIN" Starring Richard Dix for Paramount THE SHOWDOWN: George Bancroft— plenty of action.
