The Film Daily (1921)

jft);<^ DAILY Monday, April 11,-1 Up State Folks (Continued from Page 1) Also: Farren's Jazz Band from the Victoria Theater. Good enough for Broadway. Chadwick's Crowd Also met. Elected Ike permanent Chairman. And Charles B. Hoy permanent secretary. All FILM clubs regardless of names. In Eastern territory. To be designated by same title. Will meet every month. In Albany. To chew things over. Incidentally. But important. Hoy may spread his reporting service all over the nation. Also all clubs expected to have exhibitor representation in future. Boston and New York have now. Others in New Haven, Buffalo and Albany expected to follow suit. Working out fine. Especially for kicks. From exhibitors. Murdock Promises Support JJ. of the UBO. Biggest man in vaudeville. Hammered crowd hard. Told 'em they'd have to get together. To fight censorship. Said industry was disorganized. Like the vaudeville people were. Twenty years ago. And told how fine the vaudeville organization was now. Of how he spent $250,000. To break the proposed strike of the White Rats. Without calling on a soul. Or letting them one in film industry should have same know he was doing it. Said somepower. "Be sure of your man when you elect him," said JJ. "Then support him in whatever he does." Suggested they should get George Eastman's support against censorship. Also suggested a monument for Eastman. To be erected while he was alive. As a tribute from filmfolk. Incidentally: J J talked to the producers and distributors. Same way. Several months ago. At Riesenfeld dinner. One Lady Puzzled Middle Aged. Nice and dignified. Wanted to meet some of the big men. Of the industry. Met a practical joker. Didn't know what she was up against. So she met a producer's representative. Under the name of Selznick. "My," she said, "I wouldn't have known you from your pictures." Another was introduced to her as "Mr. Zukor." And she raved over his productions. Which embarrassed the young man muchly . But the climax came when she was introduced to a Brooklyn exhibtior as "Mr. Fox " "Oh," she said, "how is Theda"? This broke up the party. Convention note: Will Sydney bequeath to Charley his bung starter gavel? Beaverbrook From Rochester. Jumping to London. Where Beaverbrook is raising old Ned. Some people figure something's happening. Under cover. That it isn't so bad as it seems. That Beaverbrook has something up his sleeve. Or both. But it don't look so good this far away. If Zukor was m London it might mean something But AZ's in Berlin. And that's another story. Talk going around Famous'll have a lot of CHRISTIE COMEDIES You bet they build two-reel comedies this way nowadays. This is a scene in Christie's next one, "Sneakers." At Educational Exchanges.— Advt. German mades. One of the ways to get production costs down. And stars' salaries. We'll see what we see. In Yiddish In First National's press sheet. An ad for "The Oath." For benefit of exhibitors. Who have houses in foreign sections. Ads all up in Yiddish. Hope it's good. Can't read it. Wonder if Bill Yearsley got it up? Price Break Comes From Jules Mastbaum. Down Philadelphia way. Lopped off a dime at night and a nickel at matinees. For all the Stanley houses — and there is a bunch— except the new Stanley. Talk of this happening some time. Not with Stanley company. But elsewhere. This first big string of houses to mark down. Who will follow? Anyone? You can hear anything you want — either way. Depends on who you meet. Over Mrs. Astor's They're chopping down the Hunting Room. Stores going in. Grill will be there— as usual. Only not so high. Take off about 12 feet. From Moor. So when you grouch you'll be nearer the ceiling. Slate table covers maybe— for the pencil pushers— and promoters. DANNY.
