Two highly significant announcements were made yesterday, when there became known all at one pop the two important facts that Hvd- ney i naplln has been signed bv the AVarner Brothers on a Ion-' term contract, and that thn on. terprislng producers are Koing forth to buck the comedy game in pictures'. Sydney Chaplin Is to star in a series of comedy features outside of the regular program of twentv-six pictures to be made by the Warners this year.

The contract received by Chaplin is said to Involve the greatest sum of money paid to any motion- picture artist during the current year. Anions other contractural provisions, it Is understood that Syd Chaplin is to head his own com pany, and will have a special dl- rector together with a crew of gag men. Only three pictures a year are to be made with him, but in I these three every effort is to be expended In stories, ability and technical help. Bidding for Syd Chaplin's services has been keen of late, and especially Since he made his big hit In "Charley's Aunt," at GraumanV Work is to be started immediately on Kyd's pictures. Several stories are already under consideration, and work on the adaptation of the first of these will he under way liy today.

The director's name will he announced within a day or two. ALYCE MILLS NEW B. SCHULBERG STAR Another new star has arrived in Los Angeles. She Is Alyce Mills, whom B. P.

Schulberg signed to a long-term contract to star in pictures, on his recent visit to New York, when he purchased fourteen stories to complete his $2,800,000 production program for this year. Miss Mills, who la already well known in the East "for her screen work and who arrived In Los Angeles yesterday, will play in many of these Schulberg productions. The acquisition of Miss Mills makes the third star Schulberg has under contract; the others being Clara Bow and Donald Keith, the latter having been put under a Schulberg contract several months go. Mr. Schulberg ielieves that Alyce Mills i a new type for the screen and that with proper development, she Is destined to risp to the heights of stardom.

With all the clamor for new faces for motion pictures, Schulberg did not find it I necessary to go outside the pale of the screen to secure the services or an actress who, he thinks, will be star material. Miss Mills halls from Pittsburg, Pa. She has been in pictures only a short time, and fir.t broke in by winning a beauty contest in her home town. Anna lltot Signs Anna Q. Xilsdon, whose recent run of distinctive screen successes has placed her in the front ranks of the film favorites, yesterday joined the First National fold when she was signed to a long-term contract as a featured player.

Miss Nllsson departed immediately after signing her contract for Tfuckee, where she is to play a featured role in Frank Lloyd's production of Rex Beacli-'s story, "Winds of Chance," for First National. Although this special production marks Miss Nilsson's debut under the First National banner as a contract player, she has been identified with several of this company's biggest pictures durln? the past year. Yesterday, In fact, she also completed the final scene in the filming of Sam E. Rork's production. "The Talker," for First National, at the United Studios.

SHAVIAN COMEDY DIVERTING FARE AT SUM-TO V-SHO From the Initial ludicrous groan before the curtain rose to the final 1 superb line, "(Ireaf Catherine." Oeorge Bernard Shaw's Irieslstable comedy which opened Wednesday at the Sum-Toy-Sho Theater. lolO South Flgueroa street, held the audience delighted. The current attraction by the Marta Oatman school of the i heater will run through Saturday. The entire cast entered into the spirit of the thing with admirable agility, several players making of otherwise tiny parts real bits of characterization.

Margaret Vivian Johnson directed the play. The action centers around the visit of a perfectly-rontented-with-hlmself British officer to the court of the "barbaric" Catherine. Inevitably, the Little Mother Is duly Intrigued by the youth and unconscious naivete of the young ambassador. But, sad for romance, there Is a perfectly good fiancee in the case and by rushing off to keep a date with her the n-ro incurs the extreme displeasure of Her Majesty. Methods of torture In darkest i Russia.

"If I only could hava had him for my museum:" Tabatha Ooodman as Catherine gave a remarkably finished performance, perfectly poised, interesting, human and decidedly pictorial. C.lenn Cook did wonders with the role of the young officer, combining almost Insufferable conceit with appealing though misguided sincerity.

Honors also go to David Henderson, as the quite inebriated Prince, who started the piece ofT with great gusto. Other players who did exceptional work are Fred leedoni Scott, the sergeant-philosopher and Samuel H. Mendenhall. pious etpierry. N.

PAVLOWA MATINEE IS ENCHANTING BY I RANCIS KlCXDH'i Anna Pavlowa enchanted a large audience at the matinee perform- nnce yesterday afternoon, when her "Sleeping Beauty" Ballet, "The Fairy Doll'' and divertissements, were presented. It was a vivid and colorful program indeed, no program which "the incomparable" has ever offered has been otherwise. Pavlowa's art is imaginative fantasy made real a perfect synthesis of color, motion and music, which hypnotizes and fascinates an ,,2, 'l" do aa dlRlcult feats. The answer is simply that Ik inimitable quite forgotten, or like scenes, which once visited, call to be visit ed HCnm.

HESS PROGR AM ATTRACTS MANY i Myra Hess was heard in the sec-jond of her three programs here yesterday morning, when she played at the Biltniore. She had gratefully a much larger audience than the previous one at Gamut. As music patrons are coming to know of her really extraordinary abilliy. perhaps Gamut will be rally filled Saturday afternoon. She played Scarlatti, Bach, Chopin.

Debussy, Granados. The Caesar Franck Prelude, Choral land Fugue was the most outstand ing number, and she did it with mastery in the full and broad sense of the word. She has sensitive fingers fingers that i an draw from er piano crashing and rich chords, or tones so soft that one wonders a second afterward if the tone has not been Imagined. She plays her Bach with especially fine feeling. Her Chopin Is lovely, although one does not Mud so much of the unusual in it.

Fen-people can play Dehnssy so that his music sounds logical, and yet eer make an art of It. Miss He, however, is one of the few who can. Her "Garden in the Rain" and "Engulfed t'a'hedral" was done better than one is apt to hear Mhem in two or three vears of con cert going.
