As you remember, "La Tosca" will star Dolores Del Rio. The picture will be filmed In Rome, in the exact locale of the story's background, If Carewe finally decides to make his production there. It will be a United Artists release. The next picture which will star Miss Del Rio and be directed by Carewe is "Revenge." a gypsy story by Conrad Bercovicl, with adaptation by Finis Fox. Indeed, it is said that Fox practically wrote the story with only one situation in the original to go on.

Tests are being made for the selection of a leading man, and one highly interesting and likely candidate is one Leroy Mason, formerly an extra man, who was seen first by Carewe in Henry's Cafe In Hollywood, with the result that Carewe inquired who he was, and called him for a screen test. Colleen Moore to Europe It just does seem as though poor little Colleen Moore has the worst luck with her plans to take a trip to tne Hawaiian Islands. How ever, she is going to have another trip to Europe, accord ing to word received yester day. So that should console her. Miss Moore and John Mc-Cormlck, who produces Miss Moore's picture and who Is also her husband, are planning a trip abroad this summer.

There is a wee possibility, I understand, that the First National star may act in a picture over there, but nothing at all definite is settled as yet on this point. Josephine Dunn Plays Lead All the panting suspense is over. Josephine Dunn, former graduate of the Paramount School, is to nlav the lead ing feminine role In James Craze's production of "Excess Baggage," to be made for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Miss Dunn was under contract to Paramount and appeared in a number of pictures, after which she went out into the cinema world as a free lance. JoSF-PHiNE.

DunnC The role she will play offers the best acting opportunity of her career. Charlie Murray's Plans As 6con as Charlie Murray completes his current First National pic ture, "The Boss of Little Arcady," he and Mrs. Murray are to travel to Jacksonville, visit their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. Mrs. William R.

McQuaid, and their two little grandsons, the younger of whom can hardly appreciate his famous grand-dad, he being only 6 weeks old. CHAP2.LI rAURRAV Murray will also visit his old home town, Mun-cie. -Ind-, where already the home talent is practicing up on the band and making street banners in honor of their noted native son. When Murray returns he is to be starred by First National in "The Truthful Liar."

W(D. AND SAT. Bk I 1 '11 i FRIDAY WIRELESS LAND NET PROPOSED TRaJio Corporation A pplication Makes George Washington Students at KHJ High Sym phony and Concert Music for Air Fans BY DR. RALPH L. POWER The long-awaited Invasion of the domestic telegraph field by the Radio Corporation of America soon will tecome a reality, was the disclosure in applications filed with Radio Commission for permits for the construction of Eixty-flve transmitters serving wenty-f our Important cities throughout the Unl'ed States from central stations in New York, Chi-'rago, Kew Orleans and San Francisco.

The Radio Corporation, according la the application, proposes to establish a wireless communiation vstem that virtually will parallel the wire lines of the country, giving all large cities direct radio communication within the United States and Internationally. The R.C.A. application follows a similar apatlon filed by the Postal Telegraph Company, the Inter-City Radio Telegraph Company of Cleveland and the Universal Wireless Communications Company of New York. To date no action has been taken on any of these applications by the commission. OFFERS SERVICE "It.

is our Intention to provide rapid and direct connection between our International transoceanic service, now operated from New York and San Francisco, and the largesb possible number of important points within this country, thus supplying the need for an all-radio international telegraphic service not now available to the public, except in New York, San Francisco, Boston and Washington. In conjunction therewith we will offer a domestic radio telegraph service competing favorably in quality and in rates with the existing wire-line telegraphs," so reads the company's application, which was signed by its traffic manager, W. A. Winter-bottom. STUDENT TALENT The Automobile Club of Southern California will give its fifteen-minute weekly radio talk at 5:45 tonight over Don Lee's KHJ, wjth Ernest McGafley at the microphone.
