Chester’s Plans
Work on the construction of a beautiful administration building, laboratory and workshops has been started at Gower Street and Sunset Boulevard, where C. L. Chester will have his headquarters, with the completion of the structures.
Mr. Chester, who has come here from New York to make his permanent headquarters, has taken over the Gail Henry comedies which are being made at the Lehrman Culver City studios, and he is the new business manager for Henry Lehrman comedies.
In addition to these companies, Mr. Chester is making at the old E. & K. .lungle Film Company's studios near Lincoln Park, a series of two-reel comedies, featuring “Snoogy,” the '•humanzee,'’ a chipanzee with pretty nearly human intelligence. In fact William S. Campbell, the director, alleges that Snooky takes direction a whole lot better than a great number of alleged human actors.
At present Mr. Chester is maintaining offices in the Markham Building at Hollywood where he has a number of people workin on his Chester-Out ing releases, his Globe Trots and his Screenings, which are issued every week.
Eddie Rosenbaum has been added to the Chester staff. He is at present handling publicity for Mr. Chester.
Margaret Lockwood, f o r m e r 1 y a Broadway favorite on the stage, is the new art director for the Herman Film Company. In private life, she is the wife of E. P. Herman. She will also play an important part in Herman’s next picture.
