Alio Fred Waring and Orchestra Onslow Stevens Gets a Break, Now Watch What He'll Do Marion Davies' New Leading Man Has Been Making Tests for Years HOLLYWOOD, July 13. Until' just a few weeks ago, Onslow. Stevens was a nonenity in Holly wood.

Casting directors knew him only as the chap who played the part of the writer in "Once in a Lifetime." (But now watch him. He has got what everyone in Holly wood seeks, a "break." Under contract to Universal, playing bits Stevens was languishing under a contemplated lay off. Then he was called over to Metro Goldwyn Mayer to make a test. For years he had been making tests. They didn't mean a wing.

"If I had a part for every test I've made I couldn't play them all if I lived to be a hundred years old," he observes. "I took tests with all the feminine players in "Back Street" and didnt get an extra part in it. My wide acquaintance with motion picture studios is due almost entirely to my testing career. It has been a wonderful experience." Marion Davies on Hunt Anyway he made a test for a minor role in the film version of "Lookine Forward." About, that time Marion Davies was having trouble finding a suitable leading man for "Peg O' My Heart." The panic was on. Finally, Marion happened to see Stevens' test by accident a real accident.

She was on her way out of the projection room when the compelling flavour of Stevens' voice boomed out of the loudspeaker. Marion paused and looked. "Who's that?" she asked. Bob Leonard, her director, shook his head. "I don't know, some fellow or other Marion's hand left the doorknob.

She sat down in the seat again. "Not bad," she observed. "No, not bad agreed Leonard. Five minutes later Stevens was called and handed some lines from "Peg My Heart." "Be ready for a test on stage six at 1 o'clock," he was told. And now he's leading man to Marion Davies.

Stevens wayborn in England of stage parents. He came to America as a child, and played his first part in the theatre at the age of three. But things happened is they do in this lifetime of ours, and the spirit of youth and adventure landed him in the United States army. He remained in service four years, stationed in China and the Philippines. Became Electrician He reached California after being paid off by the army and decided to resume acting and try films.

It Just didn't work out. Instead of becoming an actor he iouna nimseii working as an elec trician on the First National lot He was a "Juicer" on "Naughty But Nice" and "Patent Leather Kid." "Then I answered an advertisement for 500 men to work in "Old Ironsides," he says. "When I got to the studio at least 5,000 men were mobbing the place," he relates. "I Joined the line up that moved past an assistant casting director. It took several hours to reach the point of inspection and I went through four times without being picked.

"I finally got the idea that my moustache had killed my chances. I borrowed a straight razor from a western character hana ina around and shaved off the mous tache while waiting in line for the fifth time. Before I reaehpd thm casting assistant, however, the 500 had been counted oft and the studio door closed.H Stevens then went to study at Years of trying for work in Hollywood have at last brought more than extra parts for unsiow Stevens. He's the leading man now for Marion Davies, the Pasadena Community playhouse. It was there he got the foothold that eventually led him before the motion picture Among the players who studied with him at the playhouse were Karen Morley, Robert Young and others who since have tasted film fame.

"How did you finally get into pictures?" Stevens, was asked persistently. He sighed and shook his, head sadly. The gesture smacked of his weary playwright characterization In the Hollywood satire. "I made tests His voice trailed off into a ghost of a chuckle. "For two years I made tests.

I have occupied every chair In every casting office waiting room in Hollywood." He glanced at his watch and started up abruptly. "Will you excuse me? I'm a little late. I have to hurry now He blushed, If you can truths fully say a grown man blushes. BARBARA STANWYCK APPEARING AT STATE In Lead of 'Bitter Tea of General Yen Barbara Stanwyck. Nils Aslhpr.

Walter Connolly and all the rest 01 tne important cast of "The Bitter Tea of General Yen" now showing a the State theatre, had to re adjust their sleeping habits entirely during the production of the picture at Columbia studios, because the schedule called for 14 full nights of snooting.

This film, "Peg O' My rieart." opens today at Loew'a and never will return to any other Reading theatre. Marlon Davies has turned in any number of screen characterisations In the past, from "ittle Old New York." to "Marianne" andy.

"The Bachelor rather," but the new production will take it place up with her greatest triumphs, in the opinion of critics who have already seen it. Laurette Taylor starred In the or lginal stage presentation of "Peg O' My Heart," the winning and dramatic story of a motherless Irish girl sud denly placed in an environment strange to her and confronted with the prospect of great riches. "Peg O' My Heart" was written for the stage by J. Hartley Manners, and played four seasons in New York and other leading cities. Robert Z.

Leonard, who directed Miss Davies in m's a Wise Child," The Bachelor Father" and other no table achievements, was her director in this new vehicle. A new leading man appears opposite the star in this Cosmopolitan production. He is Onslow Stevens, who scored a great hit as the downtrodden author in "Once In a Lifetime," and who has beeo lauded as one of the most likely can didates for future screen stardom. Other players In "Peg O' My Heart" include J. Farrell MacDonald, Juliette Compton, Irene Browne, Tyrrell Davis, Alan Mowbray, Doris Lloyd, Robert Grieg, Nora Cecil and Geoffrey Gill.

Technical assistants with a Celtic background and persons skilled in recreating. Irish backgrounds were employed in reproducing the exterior and interior sets of the new film. A special accompanying musical score was prepared by 1 Herbert Stothart, and the picture also Introduces two new songs, "Sweetheart Darlin," by Stothart and Gus Kahn, and "I'll Remember," by Nado Herb Brown and Arthur Freed.

The story, which was written by the late Wilson Mizner, minces no words or situations in portraying the career of a "forgotten man." The action commences with the World war in which the main character played by Richard Barthlemess, Is rewarded for his bravery with wounds that leave him a wreck of his former self. His efforts to rehabilitate himself lead him into many adventures and into a stirring romance until he is caught in the tide of the "breadline" class. Considered one of Bart helm ess' finest characterisations to date, "Heroes for Sale" also boasts a oast of highly competent supporting players, each of whom is given a chance for splendid work, Loretta Young plays the leading feminine role, while Aline Mac Mahon, Gordon Westoott, Robert Bar rat and Berton Churchill play other important roles.

The Warner Bros. First National trend of following front page headlines for story material Is quite evident in thto film. The stark realism of the life and struggles and romance of a veteran, from the time of the World war to the present day la the basis of this production.
