FAWCEIT NONCOMMITTAL Endeavors to sound out George Fawcett as. to whether he would do a picture in Germany, find the character actor noncommittal. Fawcett has watched with Interest the progress of 'such an organization as UFA and heartily approves of the exchange of actors and directors that Is golpg on. Skepticism of screen material, however, has made him hesitant about new ventures. But the actor haa an immense following In Europe wher' he stands at the top with his admirers and It Is among the possible things, that the right combination will take him overseas for 'a film or two.

Fawcett will soon complete long engagement In "The Tempest," starring John Barrymore. SEASON Edward 3.
