Kone wrong, I went te the offices of the producers in New Yerk thin week and '

I find that tlier and all ether producers hare a regular system of reperti i

And nobody, probably net ricn Cecil de lillc himself, ireuld attempt
te defend "The Affair of .tmifel" nriiiciJlft. Take "Over the Hill."
It m hokum, pure and simple, produced frankly for ts popular appeal.
ft is well done from a production standpoint, but nobody would think
of ranking tt as n ttery te be proud of. 1 cf. lait irerk, an efjieial of the
Fex Company told me that they me confident "Oicr the Hill'' icill play

XTOW let's glance at the report sheets
nne eshll.ifnr from Mnsv.nelinte! t it

any action. We had a few of the verj

And a Cincinnati theatre owner writes: "Hailed by the cr.ti's as a wonder

a picture of that tjpe absolute! undesirable for our audiences. " There
have be-n a let of kicks b movie fi.ns this year et account of the clns-s of

looking en down the report sheets we find such comments as thee, "Had

SO THERE you net n rhnne te are tchr.t tne produce it tp against

He pirates himself and a tery feu of the fans, but he dnpleasei hi'

J-l English, but Dorethy wan selected
from IiundredH of girls te piny the part
of n Jewess.
Thus Dorethy Ulchards. who plays
one of the piincipul roles In "The Mar
rlcade," found herself In n peculiar
situation.
"1 speak Trench, Spanish, ficrman,
and have lived in European countries
virtually nil of my eighteen yearn," ayn
the actress, "se the role of an unhappy
wife in a Jewish family struck mc as
being a llttle odd."
Miss Uiclmrdw has spent most of her
childhood hi France, Oeriniiny and
Spain.
Her mother, Mndam Martha Well
nrds, made her debut in Trench opera
its 11 prltnn denna tnnnj yearH age.
Madam Ulchurds was n jiretrgc of
Mrs. V. K Vandcfbilt. nnd it was
itlrreuch the influence of Mre. nndcr-
bill, that Dorethy 'b mother received her
icnaucc in 1 11c 1 reiicn nirirui"'"""
1 "And while mother had xueh a wen-
iderful voice," continued Miss Mich-
ards, "I ceuliln't even learn tossing.
Oh. of course, I can burst out into song
and can repeat in French, (lerinan or
Spanish all of the leading soprano leles
which I gathered from hearing mother
sing, but I hnvcu t what you call n
voice."
D
OIIOTIIY came te America at the
outbreak of war. She was placed
In Notre Dame Academy at Mosten and
It wns while attending the convent that
the petlte nctrctw learned te speak
English.
Mis Uicliards" fir-t lrgiilmatc role
was played last year In "Deburau." a
Melasce proiluctien. which ran all sea

"Mut I like pictures," smiled the lit
tle girl, "with plenty of action and
