'■FLICKERS
-By DON CARLSON
LEV1NE and FOSTER
Monogram's "Keeper of the Bees" opened at the Roxy, New York, last Friday. First indie film to play the big house in quite a while. . . . Speaking of indies, we've read some mighty fine rave reviews on Republic's "Harmony Lane." . . . Nat Levine, who was responsible for this yarn on Stephen Collins Foster, is one of the most highly regarded individuals in the producing business. . . . Majors have been after him for several years, but he persists in sticking to the indie ranks. . . . Foster, whose life is depicted in "Harmony Lane," wrote many of America's most oft-sung melodies, but died without a penny in his pocket in Bellevue Hospital, N. Y. . . .
FIRST DIVISON ACTIVE
They tell us that Winnie Sheehan is definitely set with Paramount and that we were probably not wrong when we suggested last week that he might replace Adolph Zukor as top man in Paramount's production. . . . First Division's Radio City offices are the scene of feverish activity as they get set to burst a heavy ad campaign throughout the country on the B. I. P. pictures they are handling. . . . Harry Thomas and Al Friedlander working like beavers and all enthusiasm. . . . It's not unlikely that Jack Fier, former N. S. S. trailer man on the coast and currently with Mascot, may become Eddie Golden's assistant sales manager for Republic. . . . Allied may try to prove that Fox must deliver "Farmer Takes a Wife" on the 1934-35 contracts, since it was generally released prior to August 1st. . . .

PATHE MAY PRODUCE
It has been suspected for a long time that Pathe would re-enter the film producing field and the day seems close at hand now. . . . Last week, Pathe Exchange, Inc., became Pathe Film Corporation. . . . All is quiet on the New York theatrelabor front as the affiliated chains and the operators continue their efforts to iron out the difficulties which led to a near-strike two weeks ago. . . . Boothmen may take a cut, but nothing near the 41 per cent cut demanded by the circuits before they were threatened with a walkout at the hour of peak business Saturday evening.
