14 Paramount Pep The above photo shows James Cruze, who needs no introduction either to members of the Paramount staff or the public at large after his accomplishment in “The Covered Wagon,” explaining to three newcomers to the screen who appear in "Hollywood” the system of lighting. Allan Dwan, Director, is here shown making a close-up of Hope Hampton in one of the many big scenes for “Lawful Larceny,” Mr. Dwan’s latest picture, which he is making at our Long Island Studio. Miss Hampton appears indeed charming in this production, and our friend Hal Rosson, cameraman, is taking full advantage of her beauty with his Bell & Howell. A special production in which Leatrice Joy and Owen Moore will appear has been started at our West Coast Studio under the direction of Charles Maigne. This is a screen version by Sada Cowan of Maximilian Foster’s story, “The Silent Partner.” This ran as a serial in the “Saturday Evening Post” and is regarded as a very powerful drama. Miss Joy has recently completed work in “You Can’t Fool Your Wife,” George Melford’s production, and Owen Moore has been especially engaged for this production. Miss Joy will have the opportunity of wearing some handsome gowns and there is a large amount of emotional acting in her role, while the part to be given Owen Moore will also possess splendid dramatic opportunities. P IT, P Display at West Coast Leatrice Joy and Owen Moore in a Special — we do, at first glance. This is our genial Walter Hiers, star, sketched by Charles de Roche, while the former was at work on “Sixty Cents an Hour,” his latest picture. Cruze Tells Recruits Do You Recognize Him? When the “paper” and “lobby display” for “The Covered Wagon” went up at the West Coast Studio this week, the entire Studio personnel gazed at the billboards with genuine interest. Not only is it amazingly fine display but the interest in James Cruze’s production has been so keen from the start that everything pertaining to it excites enthusiasm. “Some production !” is the comment of those who discuss the picture. “We’ll never forget it,” retort those who worked on the picture in the wilds of Utah. k Action at Long Island
