“SWEETHEARTS” WILL
BE SUNDAY SHOW AT
THE GRAND THEATRE
A new Jeanette MacDonald and
Nelson Eddy and a new warmth, color
and comedy spirit in musicals makes
itself manifest in “Sweethearts,” fifth
co-starring musical of the famous sing-
ing team, which will be the attraction
at the Grand theatre, Patton, on Sun-
day and Monday next.
Technicolor has given both singers
a more vivid personality, while the
up to the minute story devised for
them by Dorothy Parker and Alan
Campbell from the Victor Herbert op-
eretta provides the stars with comedy
characterizations which should win
them legions of new followers.
In “Sweethearts” Miss MacDonald
and Eddy portray two Broadway mus-
ical comedy stars who are husband and
wife in private life. Their quarrels,
tempermental outbursts and jealousies
together with their joint attempt to
outwit a producer who wants to pre-
vent them from accepting an offer
from Hollywood, make for a comedy
which is rich in laughter and at the
same time replete with beautiful and
original song and dance presentations,
Miss MacDonald and Eddy prove
themselves as skillful in modern roles
as in their past costume successes and
offer a musical feast in their singing
of the lovely Victor Herbert songs, am-
ong them “Sweethearts,” “Every Lov-
er Must Meet His Fate,” “Pretty As A
Picture,” and “On Parade.”
The supporting cast is one of the
best, including in its imposing line-up
{ such well known performers as Frank
Morgan in the role of the scheming
and laughable producer, Ray Bolger,
who dances with Miss MacDonald and
also in solo numbers, Florence Rice as
Miss MacDonald's secretary, Mischa
Auer, Herman Bing and Reginald Gar-
diner.

By L. L. STEVENSON
Back from a 19-months tour of the
continent, Estelle and LeRoy, ball-
room dancers, have many stories
to tell. The one they favor the
most is on themselves. At La Sca-
la, they found themselves preceded
by a group of whirling dervishes
known as the Ballet des Zaren. On
opening night, resin was sprinkled
plentifully over the floor for the bal-
let and by the time Estelle and Le-
Roy came on, the stage surface was
an expanse of slippery wax. To
make matters worse, for their rou-
tine, the stage was so raised at the
back that the front dipped into the
orchestra pit. Nevertheless, every-
thing went well with their first twe
dances. But just as they went into
the whirlwind finish of their final
number, down they crashed, Estelle
into the bass drum and LeRoy into
the astonished face of the first vio-
linist. And from then on, whenever
they approached the edge of the
stage, the orchestra broke into,
“Danger, Love at Work.”

Moriz Rosenthal, 76-year-old “‘it-
tle giant of the keyboard” who will
celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of
his American debut with a golden
jubilee concert at Carnegie hall,
loves to relate anecdotes of his
wife’s devotion. One concerns an
occasion when Mrs. Rosenthal (one
of Europe’s leading piano teachers)
was entertaining a party of friends
in her drawing room while her hus-
band was upstairs in his study work-
ing on his soon-to-be-published
memoirs. The discussion turned to
a rather difficult problem and when
the argument became hopelessly in-
volved, one of the ladies of a more
religious bent, observed, ‘Ah, well,
there is One above Who knows al.”
“Ah, yes,” responded Mrs. Rosen-
thal beaming. “And I will ask him
to come down and tell us what he
thinks.”

Before coming to New York, Dor-
is Rhodes was starred in a number
of out-of-town night clubs. One of
those spots was in a city where
there was a large prison. Actors
from the different cafes were often
called on to entertain the convicts
and Miss Rhodes, feeling sorry for
the prisoners, always complied with
such requests. One evening at the
conclusion of her program, she in-
formed the warden that it would be
her last appearance as she was
leaving to fill another engagement.
The warden thanked the singer for
appearing in the prison shows and
then, turning to the inmates add-
ed, “I know you will all miss Miss
Rhodes. She has been here so many
times that she has almost become
one of us.”
* » *
Here is something unknown to
many of those who have praised
Carol Bruce, young torch singer at
the Midnight Sun, for the unusual
timbre of her voice and the strange
and tingling choral effects produced
thereby. It’s all due to an obscure
disease which affects the larynx.
Miss Bruce has had the disease
since she was 12 years old. A sim-
ple operation would cure it. But a
cure would make her voice merely
the same as any other. So she pre-
fers to keep her disease.

At 16, George Lowther, radio au-
thor, broke into his profession as
an actor. ‘‘Quickie’” motion pic-
tures, made in a Long Island studio,
were quite the thing for stage per-
sonalities with a few idle hours on
their hands, and Lowther was cast
in a small part in an eight-reeler.
Ordered to work at 6 a. m., his
day ended at midnight when three
reels had been completed. The
second day, the same schedule was
followed.
“We made the entire picture in
something like 40 hours,” said
Lowther. ‘And if I hadn’t had a
fast car I would have missed the
preview.”

Last year, Joan Edwards, soloist
with Paul Whiteman'’s orchestra,
opened the Army and Navy day cel-
ebration at the Statue of Liberty
with the national anthem. At the
end of the program, a gold-braided
general patted her on the back and
as much as told her the army
doesn’t forget such beautiful sing-
ing. Evidently it doesn’t since this
year Miss Edwards received an invi-
tation from that same general to
the Army-Navy football game.
