TEDDY SAMPSON
MARRIED TO
FORD STERLING
i rnHERE arc two reasons why Teddy
J- Sampson is different from most otln-r
women plnyers. She doesn't mind tell
ing her ngc that she wns born in New
York City in 1895. Neither dpes she
attempt to concenl from the fans of
the country the fact that she is mar
ried, even though she Is one of the
most charming of actresses in both face
and figure nnd the greatly admired of
thousands of male fnns.
In private life she is Mrs. Ford
Sterling. to that there is plenty of
comedy in the family. Her husband is
an expert portrait photographer, asidn
from his screen duties, and has won
many prizes at the Art Institute camera
competitions, with his wife as the model
in most of them. Miss Sampson has a

NOT CURTAILING
STUDIO ACTIVITY
ON WEST COAST
By CONSTANCE PALMER
Hollywood, Calif.
FAR from curtailing their activities,
as the gloomcrs had It, Famous
Players-Lasky by the 1st of August ex
pect to Imve fourteen companies at work
in their Hollywood studio. That's en
couraging. It sort of gives a fellow weakening
of the knees to think of such a depend
able company working nt half pressure
If they should do it what uodld the
others do?
Agnes Arcs is coming back from
New York to make her first starring
picture. She's a very nice, genuine sort
of girl, and I hope she makes a big
success.
Jack Holt, the very nicest actor there I
is. bar none, nt the end of his work I
for "William De Mllle in his present
picture, "The btagc Door," will nlso
be starred. E asked him yesterday if
he were glad, anil like n seasiuie mnn
he didn't rave, but said, yes, with pro
visions. He snid he would be if he were sure
they would give him good stories. But
good stories arc as rare as tho conver
sations between George Jean Nathan
arid II. L. Mencken.
WHEN they were casting for George
Melford's production of "A Wise
Fool," Dorothy Dalton was approached
on the subject of playing the wife of
Jean Jacques Barbille, the part Alice
Holllster tinnlly did. Said Dorothy In
true Dalton vein :
"What! Mo piny the mother of an
eigliteen-yenr-old girl! Where do you
get thnt stuff?"
Lois Weber cave a party the latter
part of tho week for tho entire com
pany plnjlng in her present picture nt
the Hollywood studios. Louis Calhoun,
Claire Windsor ond nil the res.t were
there, and they do tell me there was
dynamite in the punch.
Anyway, every one had a good time.
There was a huge cake with frosting
inches thick on which was inscribed
"Ain't We Got Fun!"
There has been another illustration
that there's no use trying to make pic
tures be what they ain't. We're not
highbrow, and as an industry never
will be. We just do the best we can.
Dr James A. II. Schercr was trans
planted from the presidency of the
California Institute of Technology to a
placo on the scennrio staff of FnmoiiB
Players. Every one cocked a skeptical
eye, but said nloud :
'Oh, isn't it wonderful! At last, oh,
at last we are recognized!"
But the months passed nnd Dr.
Scherer was now and again mn pass
ing also to nnd fro from lunch. He
referred sometimes to "my friend, Billy
Do Mllle."
Dearie. It Just Isn't done! And now
I hear bo's gone. Where? Back to

Mr first, nuhlle nrincarancc. nccoru-

night; ami there was over au hour to
wait for that ominous uhu ""
Kitty tried to keep ine cheered up, and
In the ballet costume, with strops over
her sloping shoulders, she looked so
adorable that I had to forget now and
Mien. -But when I glunced in the mir
ror nnd saw myself, with all my heavy
hnir hidden under a slouch hat aud my
legs In large trousers and my hands in
ray jacket pockets, panic would seize
mo again. I wuuted to run a mile;
run like mud and never stop.
The moments dragged Between acts
girls came tearing into tho room and In
.1 brilliant buzz disrobed ami redressed.
Then they were gone again. Time
hung upon us. Finally, tho far echoes
of applause, the hum of voices in the
hall, nnd "props," the man of all work,
knocking at the door.
'Ready," he called.
So much hung upou this trial.
"If I don't succeed," I told my
self, "Rolund will never have anything
more to do with me!"
Months of saving, months of drenm
ing were now to be put to the test.
And hure I was, unable to drag my
feet along. The song wns forgotten.
Mj mind was a blank.
I felt myself moving in n dream. The
Inst boundaries of safety were left, and
there wo were in the center of the stage,
before the curtain, in the blinding blur
of the footlights.
A voice rose between my lips. Was
it mine? 1 tilted my cane; my legs
swajed; I caught Kitty's luugliingcyi's
nnd her hweet smile and suddenly
wagged my head jauntily nnd grinned
nt her. We hud come to the end of ttie
first htiuizu. To my amazement, a
whirlwind of npplause nrose out of the
blackness and rushed over us, with a
thumping of feet aud whistling from
the gallerj .
What did it mean? Suddenly, I
found mjself. All my old towering
courage came bark to me. I looked out
boldly. I turned ond seized Kitty ami
kissed her. She made believe that i-he
was nngry with me and turned away.
I wheeled her round aud whispered to
her nnd cajoled her. Then we burst
nut laughing nud embraced mid began
to dunce aud sing the remaining stanza.
The house went wild. It was unbe
lievable. And I? 1 was like a fish
thnt had been on land just up to the
point of djing, and now wns flung back
into the water again! A born actress.
When it was over nnd we hud been

I went home to my little room. The

but the apartments were divided into

Into the Lack yards.
All thnt night my mind went over and
over ngain the scene of the evening. I

Rotund Welles the news.

congratulated me. Ho said ho had ex

him. I chose a morning when I wns

and blowing day of autumn, shining ami
lusty. I felt very happy.
When I entered, the ten-phone girl

into the heart of the mystery, ond came
out on "tho floor."
I felt my spirits dashed a little. It
wns quite unlike what I had pictured.
For the X Studio is one of the
small ones, far different from the on
I am now working In. It wns really a
factory building, nnd had till the clut

with masses of ncenery stacked all about,
nnd dresslnlg rooms here nnd there, nnd
storerooms, nnd property rooms, and in
the back, in a cleared space, the stnge.
The quiet, milky burning of long tubes
of light, set in frames, drew me toward
the rear. I wenr ami stumbled on a
sceno In rehearsal. The light turned
every face into n sort of sickly green
bronze, quite startling. Tho actors
looked like bronze statues in motion.
The director stood before them, be
side the camera on its tripod. The
scene was a rich parlor, with heavy
hnngtngs, mirrors and artistic furni
ture. At a little table sat a doll
faced, light-haired woman, boft nnd
spineless, but very pretty. Over her
stood Roland Welles in evening clothes.

RECENT FLOOD
CAUSES HARDSHIP
TO MOVIE ACTORS
THE greatest thriller ever enacted by
Colleen Moore nnd Pat O'Mnlley has
been lost to the Bcrccn, for, it was in
actuality, not for ar,t. What they ro
garded as n wcarisomo trip from Los
Angeles to Natchez, Miss., with tho
other membcrfl of tho Oliver Morosco
Productions Co. to film "Slippy Mc
Gee," under tho direction of Wesley ,
Rugglcs, turned out to bo tho wildest i
experienco of their lives.
When tho train carrying tho Morosco
company eastward reached Cheyenne,
Wyo., at B o'clock Sunday morning,
the members were informed thnt there
would be a three-hour delay because of
flood conditions. Miss Moore, accom
panied by O'Molley and Frank L.
Gcreghty, nsslstant director, took the
opportunity to attend early bibbs.
Returning to tho depot, tho train
had been gone more than nn hour, the
railroad officials deciding to rush it
through to Denver before the flood
stopped traffic. Meantime Miss Moore s
mother on tho trnln was sending back
frantic telegramo to her daughter from
every atop.
IN ATTEMPT to catch the train at
Denver, where thero wns to be a four
hour lavover, the three found an nuto
mobile driver willing to make tho wild
dash. The first few miles were cov
ered quickly until tho flooded area was
reached. Then tho car moved more
cautiously through water that reached
tho floor boards. The race seemed ended
when a bridge wns found washed out.
But hero again (he determination and
resourcefulness of the marooned trio
amn nut. Whilo Miss Moore perched on
i the back of the seat of the car to keep
nor icci oui oi uiu nuui, "'"'ji
Gcreghty nnd the driver, wading up to
their waists, constructed a makeshift
bridge out of dtjftwocd.
ARRIVING near Greeley, Col., they
found the town under four feet of
water which meant turning bnck thirty
miles to Fort Collins and detouring.
They stopped long enrugh to permit
O'Mnlley to take some more pictures
with his kodnk. But enmern, films nnd
ull were lost a short tlino later when
tho cor skidded, careened on two wheels
ond threw everything loose out of the
tonncau into tho water.
They finally reached Denver after
twelve of the most thrilling hours of
their lives. They were covered with
mud, drenched to the skin, wearied and
hungry. And tho train had gone hours
before. Catching the next train east
ward, they took a short cut at Kansas
City and finally rejoined the greatly
worried Morosco company nt Memphis,
Tenn.
