' CLOSE-UPS of the
n- HENRY
Some Emote Violently and Some Don't
NOT long ago I road in otic of the fun. mnrcnzlne.M mi aftcctluR article on the
terrible nerve Mrnln of rmotltiR violently for a number of canycr-tith e liota
before tho cnmcrn. It told how i-evcrnl of our favorite .-tars ximnly clump to
pieces at the end of n particularly emotional dii.v.
' Mary Alden, aceordliiR to the writer, had to take a week's trt when she
finished with the production of "The Old Nest." And he told how llelenu
Chndwiek that little lady, by the way. Is one of the coming Rrrnt ones of the
creen, mark by word vvni n nervous wreck after she had pone through some
ot the weepy stuff for "Danserous Curve Ahead."
There's no doubt about it that emotliiR doe? really have a serious effect
upon some particularly hlRh-strtiUR temperaments. There are artistic natures
(that enter so wholo-ouledlj Into their parts that they actually live them nnd
uCr in'cnsely with the Miffi-riii of the character the are playing.
But there arc others, equally effective on stage or screen, who con drop tho
mako-bcllcvc with nn abruptness that is almost shocking to onlookers behind
the scenes,
HOIt would you like to sit through a hai rowing scene of Xazimova
on the speaking stage and get to the point where you irrie gulping
hard and openly teiping aitay the teais and then suddenly have her
stop acting and cry with a laugh. " Vha! 1 fooled you that time, didn't
It" That's the effect sometimes as you tcatch the uork in a studio.
r1 DOESN'T often happen thnt wuj, of course. Usually the screen actor or
actress is tremendously moved by the part being plnjed. Hut I hnd two
hocks in New York in one dn last week that brought the contrast home to me
rather sharply. t
I spent the morning in the Cosmopolitan studio, at l'Jilth street and Second
.venue. Marion Duvles is making a big picture up there and I had been watch
ing her on a magnificent set .
When she stopped for a co-tumi" change. Albert Cnpcllnni. the director.
called for Vorrcvt Staulej and l'cdio de Cordoba to put on one of the great
dramatic scenes whose action takes plrne on the amo et.
Stanley, as the hero, is in the room when De Cordob.i. as the villain, enters.
They quarrel over the girl. ISeginnlng In somewhat quiet tempo thej work up
to ft tremendous struggle scene and Stniilev, with a er of "You cur! I'll kill
youl" draws a pistol and shoots De Cordoba.
They rehearsed It until they had It right. Then Capellanl said. "Let's
to" (He doesn't say "camera" like mot directors), and the camera man began
to grind nnd the men on the set Ntartcd their action.
They did It most Impressively. I laid -boiled as I am, I was conscious of
the thrills running up nnd down tny spine with the realism of the death struggle.
The great moment enme. "You cur," cried Stanley, and his olco vibrated
through the great studio. "I'll kill you !"
He whipped out his gun and Cued and. while I watched, fascinated, turned
with the same motion to Capellanl. l.iughed pnjly and said, "I think Pedro nnd
I ought to go into vaudeville with this stuff,"
JT WAS like a dash of cold irnter in the face for me. I had let him
' cany me icith him through those moments of his character's mental
torture right up to the supreme climax irherc man could no longer con
trol himself and teas engulfed in the tidal leave of primitive passion.
And he had seemed to feel it so himself.
IN THE afternoon I wns plajin; nbout the Fox studios, down on West Fiftj -fifth
street, nnd stocd watching Scnrlc Daw ley directing n particularly pretty
firl In some close-ups.
She sat in n chair, plajing the part of a daughter in love with a oung man
whom her father will not tolerate. And father was telling her lust what he
thought of her nnd the young man and everybody, anil asking who'd pay her
carfare "when he disowned her nnd nil that sort of thing. ,
Dawley hlmelf spoke the father's lines. Ho as nut of the picture, of
course. The camera was shooting close-ups of the changing emotions on the
firl's face her terror at first at discoverj. her indignation ns she heard her
lover called insulting things, her mental struggle between !oe for her father and
for the joung man. and her final bursting of all bounds ns she sprang to her
feet, crying. "No. father; I will NEVER give him up." Thnt springing to her
, feet ended the shooting.
Well, they rehenrsed it and then went to it for the camera. Dnwley wns
certainl one irate father. And the verv beautiful little girl raftered such pal
pable soul anguish and showed it so plninl.v on her loely face that, as the climax
came, my heart went out to her ami I felt- like bashing Dawlej over the bean.
Then came the Inst supreme effoit; she prang to her fet, cried. "No.
father; I will NEVER give him up," and. glancing at the sk lights, continued,
Good Lord' Look nt It raining: And I didn't bring nn umbrella."
I'D LIKE to tell you tiiat little gut's name, because she is sure one
beauty and she uin act. They told me who she irn., but 1're for
gotten it. Which simply proves hoir old I'm netting. Tuenty years
ago, I'd haxe had her name and address jotted down in my notebook
and icould probably hate asked her her phone number ichilc I offered
her my oxen umbrella. Ah, well
COGLEY RECALLS
"GOOD OLD DAYS"
ON WEST COAST
By NICK COOLEY
(Mr. Coglcy, icell-known character
mctor, famous for his interpretation of
Ntgro tolcs, and now a number of the
Ocldicyn stock company, nas one of
th first players to leave the stagv for
18 screen. He tells some interesting
Itorie of early days in filmdom.)
rnHE motion-picture industry Is one
A of the biggest in the world todaj,
X con remember when there wns onl)
on company on tho Pacific. Coast, and
thty called It a "polyscope cotupun I"
In tflbse days all a fellow needed was n
pir of corduroys, a slouch hat, an old
coat and a bandanuu nnd he wns
dressed for any role. All the pictures
were Westerns or mining stories, you
eo.
Well, those were the good old das,
TOM enough, when every ono was taking
a gambling chance on the future of the
movies, and motion-picture uctors were
looked upon as hoboes bj regular folks
About fourteen years ago lie Selig
Polyscope Co. was the only picture con
cern In the West. Thej had a little
Jilaco on Olive street, Los Angeles, that
ooked more like a Chinese junk house
than anything else
The studio was a back lot, filled with
tin cans to this da) the open space re
served for outside sets is called the
"back lot." I had drifted out from the
East, where I was a stotk in-tor, and de
cided to throw my luck with the pic
tures. fielig had a regular stock compnnj,
all but tho chnracter mini, and I mine
along right in the nirk of time, whnh
makes mc rank with Santschi ns one t
the oldest screen actor on the coast.
There was Siintschi. Ilarbnra Worth,
Jean Ward, Frank .Montgomery, Dick
Vivian and Frank Richardson.
FIRST they usked me:
"Cnn jou swim?"
I couldn't
"Can ion ride?"
' I couldif't.

"Cnn you climb hills?"
1 couldn't I was, and am. too fat.
I began to think I had no qualifica
tions whateer when suddenly a bright
idea came to mc.
"I make no claim to be an acro
bat." I announced Impressively ns the
director (lied another question nt me.
"hut, gentlemen. I cnn act."
They gave me a job.
(If course I was handicapped, not
being a mountain climber, but they got
nround thut difficult by lowering me
down und casing me up with a piano
wire.. You see, once I started rolling,
being so fat, I naturally rolled to King
dom Come. Climbing hills wns a regu
lar part of making pictures in those
duvs. We climbed nil over the country
Yosemlte, Tahoc, even as far north
as Oregon.
The first sear we hit Yotemitc we
had to get permission of tho mnior
to stay, nnd were compelled to check
all of our guns and nminunltion with
the military. A Western nictiire not
being much good without a lot of shoot
ing in it, we hnd fo pull wires to get
the guns out again, but we weren't
allowed any ammunition. The picture
was "The Wild Man." and from the
wiij the summer wsilors looked at us
we might have come straight from the
jungle.
THE first time Tom Siintschi wore his
make-up the whole camp wns scand
to dpath. .lean Ward was to come run
ning out of the brush, screaming bloodv
murder, with the wild man after her.
About liOO people were watching us,
not knowing what wns coming. When
Jean came tinring down the hill,
shrieking like mad. with Tom ronrin
after her win should have sceji thoe
folks take to their heels I'll bet some
of H)em are running jet!
That night Tom got an official order
fiom the commandant, saing he wns
not to appi ar on the trails, or where
am one could see him, in that sort of a
get mi I i an see Tom ct, sitting up
in the locks, where he wns ordered to
make up, and ussing his head off over
the inconvenience of It.
Will, things went along like that for
several jear In the meantime Hio
Kiaph and Vitngraph mid otheis had
started up and Selig had put up the first
building of what Is now known ns the
Selig Zoo.
The same old bunch hung together
until our director was killed out theie
one dnj I ciiinc pretty near to being
murdered iiijself
We were all in the otlire. llogj-s, sjelig
and some others, when a crazy .lap
janitor burst in and commenced shoot
1 log up the place. He got Hoggs and
I shot Selig in the arm before Tom
jumped lu and disarmed him.

There were stepping stones along the

Roland directing me nil this unnerved

who loafed beside me,
"All right, Jim. Oct out on thnt

CONTEST WINNERS
START THEIR WORK
IN MOVIE STUDIO
THE three girls who won our Movie
Beauty Contest started their nctual
work toward movie stardom yesterday.
They arc now regularly enrolled on tho
payroll of the Hctr.vvood Film Co. at a
minimum salary of $40 a week for the
period required to make tho present
production.
Three minor parts hnvc been writ
ten Into thin Tooncrvillc Trolley comedy
especially for them. They nre first
being put through some work? inside
the studio, so n to overcome their
enmera-shyness nnd to determine their
special needs in mnkc-up.
And, later In tho week, they will go
out on locntlon with the compnny until
by Snturdny, they will feel Uko veterans
and wonder what they have been worry
ing nbout nil this time.
The girl who dlsploys the most adapt'
ability to tho demands of the screen In
this comedy will be' signed on as the
lending woman In the next one nt $100
a week. The nume of the fortunnto
winner will probably be announced In
two week.
IT HAS ben a long time since the
rntioerrnttve week-enders and sum-
met era nt Cope May have liad quite ns
much excitement on tncir Dcncn ns incy
hnd last Sunday.
It wns all caused by these three little
Tlio excitement started on Snturdny
night, when the girls made nersonnl ap
lunMitinii nt the I.lhrrtv Theatre. Al
most everybody lu Cape May crowded
into the playhouse for either the first
or second show, nnd the reception they
gave the girls was so spontaneous nnd
cordial that it was really reward enough
lor winning the contest, even without
the cxtrn prize of octlng in the Tooucr
vitle Trolley comedies.
Bl'T Sunday morning brought the
rllmnx to the public Intel est. It
was an Ideal morning for bathing nnd
til" bench wns crowded when the girls,
little drcnmlng that thev would be so
widely recognized, strolled down the
sands to watch the fun.
Somebody must hnvc sent out n gen
eral wireless "O 8 T" mcmnRe to every
one from one end of the resort to the
other.
Scarcely had the girls nppcnicd than
little Rroups of people began lo Rother
near them nnd pnssed the word along
thnt the famous three were there, uiul
that evcrjbody could eininlne them In
the full glare of dnj light and see just
how pretty they were.
Then an enterprising newspaper
photographer went up to them nnd
nsked them to pose for n picture. He
had no sooner unlimbered his apparatus
than tlie ocean nnd the boardwalk were
deserted nnd people swarmed from every
where to wntch the interesting process
ot pliotogrnphlng the beauties.
It was an embnriosslng time for the
girls. None of them had ever been the
center of so much public interest before,
nnd for n moment it looked ns though
they were going to be pnnlc-strlcken
nnd mnke a break through the sur
rounding crowd and hide in their hotel.
Hut they stood It until the snapshot
man hnd completed his job. Then they
elbowed their way ns best they could
through the circle that hemmed them in
and sought icfugc in a less conspicuous
plnce.
The winners are Mndelaine Starhill,
."800 Cedar avenue; Eugenie Hrew,
Hotel Normnndic, and Marlon Heist,
'Mo South Forty-second street.
Pat O'Malley Was Movlo Cop
Perhnps It was because of his name,
but Pnt O'Malley's first role before the
camera was as a cop. The director in
stiucted him to be nntural and joung
Pntilck, all very earnest, ninde a figur
ative and literal hit bv his realism. He
was to arrest the villain. The latter,
to get "footage" for the scene, dram
atically protested. O'Malley, remem
bering the director's words, quickly fig
ured wlint a policeman would do to a
man lesisting nnest. The villain was
(lattened out by Pat's fist nnd then
dragged off tho scene. It wns n grcnt
success with every one except the vil
