Ml 21 Two More Plays Bid for Broadway Favor Stage and Screen News Rian James BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1931 'Free for AW fun at psychoanalysis, the Russian EDMV1SD LOWE 'FREE FOR ALL' The Theaters Reverting to Type By ARTHUR POLLOCK By KIA1N 'Ladies of Creation, an Inflated Comedy About Love Among Interior Decorators, Opens at the Cort Theater BRING THE KIDDIES Mother dear, is Flaming Passion Just another Wage of Sin? And do all the Dancing Sweethearts Drink an awful lot of Gin? And why, in every Arab Desert Is there such a lot of Lust? And Mother, when the lights are dtmmett Who is that that says "You Must?" Mother dear, do Jazz-mad Mammas Always have those Burning Souls? And when Winter comes will we have Passion's Everburning Coals? 1 1 MW -ft "2, Waaw The new entertainment at the Cort Theater is a comedy by Gladys Unger about an interior decorator in love. It is called "Ladies of Creation" and is presented by a new producer named Raymond Moore, who has been in the habit of giving Dennis, up on Cape Cod, nice plays and nice actors during the Summers. "Ladies of Creation" looked like a bright comedy last night, but the chances are appearances in this case are deceiving. At any rate, its first audience gave signs of liking it, which ought to be enough. Certainly it is good to look at, for Eugene Fitsch has designed a fetching setting and the Prankl Galleries have provided smart modern furniture.

Furthermore, the actors act it for all it is worth. They act it for much more than it is worth.

Baulpaueh A Judna Edward Waltera You are going to like "Free for AH," the new musical comedy that Schwab and Mandel brought to their Manhattan TheRter In Manhattan last night.

You are going to like the piece because It is bright and clever. Also because the music. which has a strong Jazz movement, sticks in your memory. And, last but not least, you are going to like the piece because Its humor Is both entertaining and clean. And, when such a piece Is produced by men who are not afraid to spend money properly, and when there is a cast of unusual ability, you are bound to like the entertainment, unless you have lost every bit of in clination for the appreciation of a proper musical play.

"Free for All" is just good-natured fun. It was written by Oscar Ham-merstein 2d, and Laurence Schwab. This team has before written successful pieces. They have the abil ity of hitting upon popular topics for their "books'' and, while they make fun of their subjects, generally they do it in a sturdy manner. Nei ther has the sly fun-poking ability of Gilbert.

But they are able to see some popular fad and lambast It good and plenty. In "Froe for AH" this team pokes experiment, free love, and one or two other timely topics. This 1 done in a piece that has a decidedly stronger and more logically constructed plot than one usually flndi In musical comedies. In fact, "Free for All" Is not a real musical comedy. It is a farce with a numebr of songs thrown in for good meas ure, with these songs often carry ing on the story.

Also, there are no chorus boys or girls in "Free for All." This means that the principals have to carry the whole show. But they are able to do It. There is first Jack Haley, that shy, bashful lad who gets a great deal of humor In parts that make him out to be a little bit of a fool. "Free for All" was written principally to show his ability, and It does it cleverly. Jack Haley Is featured.

And he ought to be. He Is good. Peter Higglns also must be mentioned. To him falls the excellent song "Free for All," a splendid number that has all the swing and dash of the "Song of the Vagabonds" that made the "Vagabond King." Incidentally, It is sung in a manner that brought Dennis King's song to mind. "Free for All" is a real number for any musical show.

Among the women, Vera Marsh was delightfully sweet. Tamara, the South Sea beauty, sang well, having: one or two numbers with Mr. Higglns that were good. Dorothy Knapp, of course, was worth looking at. And so also was Jeanetta Loff, the moving picture star, who Is trying her luck on the real stage.

These were some of the high spots of the really good all-around cast. Richard A. Whiting, who wrote the music, was very kind to hia audience. In addition to "Free for All," there was another blight number called "The Girl Next Door," sung by Mr. Haley and Miss Marsh.

Also a "Slumber Song" that fell, to Tamara and Mr. Higglns. And then one must not forget "When Your Boy Becomes a Man," well sung by Grace Johnston, who had only a small part but a really good song. "Free for All" Is worth seeing. Manngcrs who think smut Is needed to sell a show should study it.

They will discover that "Free for All" la an excellent example of a proper musical play. FULTON it ROCKWELL "SPORTING BLOOD" Wild Clark C.bla Arnold Joaaeoa I ft Bind Otkeri I In the talkie vernon of 'Tha at the Roxr. Busy Chester Ershin Busiest of the town's stage directors Is Chester Erskln, since he is simultaneously rehearsing two plays which open within a few days of each other. His own production of "I Love an Actress" Is being rehearsed In the daytime at one theater, while the Theater Guild's production of "He," is being rehearsed at night in the Guild Theater. "I Love an Actress" opens at the Times Square on Sept.

17 and "He" opens the Ouild season on Monday, Sept. 21 at the Guild Theater. Mr. Erskin, incidentally, is not only staging the two plays but adapted them. Steeplechase Events Two big events are on the calen dar for this week at George C.

Tllyou's Steeplechase Park, Coney Island. On Wednesday evening In the outdoor pool the finals in the Steeplechase Ping Pong tournament will take place. On Thursday eve ning a special dancing carntvf.1 will be held. should not be praised for this nor their director, George Somnes, for egging them on to do it, for they seem to be overacting. And that Isn't nice.

It is a good cast, however, in spite of the elbow gresse. And the players give a full-blooded performance. The play Itself remains pretty bloodless. You sit and look at the furniture and the fine setting, almost forgetting that in the play there is not a single really witty line nor a comic or moving situation. You like all the acvors who in their good clothes go through their animated motions, quite willing to forget, if you can, that they are only offering monkeyshines instead of something more like an amusing, romantic reality.

The play is thin and does not stimulate. Its heroine is a woman interior decorator continually spoken of as a person of quite tender years and in need of a certain amount of protection. Chrystal Heme, with many mannerisms that seem to me tations, plays this role. She has taken as her assistant an ignorant but willing young man of no education but large muscles and he has turned out to be invaluable. He likes her very much and will do almost anything for her.

But an old friend from Davenport appears upon the scene, woos her though married and the father of so-and-so many children, and finally persuades her to go off with him in his car to New Orleans and be his mistress. He has said his wife won't be a wife to him any longer and doesn't understand him. The wife turns up, proving him a liar. The decorator is sore. There are a couple of movie actors, one male, one female, in the cast.

They act like movie actors, and the male, though about to marry the lady star, runs off with Paula Trueman. That doesn't seem silly, but it causes his Jilted fiancee to get drunk with the disillusioned decorator in a scene which is not AMUSEMENTS BROOKLYN AMUSEMENTS BROOKLYN AMUSEMENTS BROOKLYN PREVIEW TOM'W NITE 11:15 P.M.

Incidentally, both of these workmen were contemporaries of Stradivarlus, worked in the same era, are rated nearly as highly.

"Hell," he said "You could get a Bulck for that!" WHY WE LIKE NEW YORK Because after seeing a friend off on the Berengaria we looked around for a cab to take us to the nearest subway station and found the driver offering to "smack you one In the nose" for not coming across with more than a 15-cent tip for a three-minute ride because the Police Department changes two-way streets into one-way streets over nignt and then gives you altch for not guessing it because landlords, without cracking a smile, still ask fifty dollars a room for many apartments and we don't have to pay it because when we button our vest, our trunk Is packed and our lease is broken, and we arc free to move into one of those apartments that advertise 'Move In Now Rent Free to October First" because we have no common stock, no preferred stock no bonds, no dough in closed banks because we can get nine cal Ions of gasoline for a buck, and a garage for S3 a month and finally because we love our gal and our gal loves us THAT'S why we like New York. HOWARD R. NEWMUN. And did you know that, in accordance with the Charter of the City of New York, Acting Mayor McKee is no longer Acting Mayor, is legally the Mayor of New York, could keep the Job If he were so minded? The City Charter, which nobody seems 'to pay any attention to, has it that a Mnvor who absents himself from office for more than 30 days loses his Job. We don't know why we bring the matter up a-tall, a-tall, but it's a nice little item, and we're funny that way.

This unique form of entertainment will have its first performance on Saturday, Sept. 19. The Moss "Varieties" comes to the public after a survey of the field by Mr. Moss.

The Ufa-Cosmopolitan's management has already told us that it Is prepared to present some of the best products of the German studios, and recently Martin Lewis of the Europa Theater returned from the Continent with the glad tidings that he, too, had rorraled a goodly number of Europe's outstanding films. Now Leo Brecher, the guiding spirit of the Little Carnegie Playhouse, has come back to these shores after an extensive visit abroad In search of screen material for his swanky film salon in 57th St. Mr. Brecher REPORT We went out to Hall's Inn again the other night we guess maybe we go there because we like it a little better than all the other places we get around to and In a little chat with Mrs.

Hall, we learned a lot about the place that we never knew before. Hall's Inn started in business 18 years ago, long before there was a paved road in that neck of Long Island. The opening process was simple. Mrs. Hall merely set aside her living room, set up eight tables, and let Nature take its course.

In this case, Nature was considerably aided by good food, sirloin steaks at full shore dinners at $1.00. The place caught on, and epicures used to battle their way out there on dirt roads, in carriages, with mud up to the wheel hubs. Often people. Just for the fun of it, used to make it from Brooklyn, by carriage, within two days. During their first year In business, a gentleman actually tootled out in an automobile, and everybody was so excited that they forgot to feed him.

Bert Hirsch, who still plays marv music at the Inn, started along about the time the Halls started, used to play a violin, with a piano accompaniment, in the little dining-room. Later, business picked up and the Halls were forced to enlarge. When autos first came Into popularity, the movie people gave it quite a whirl, too; used to take many of their features in the Cen-terport locale. Agnes Ayres, Francis X. Bushman, Maurice Costello, Beverly Bayne, Pearl White and Von Strohelm used to live there, over the dlnlngroom, when on location; used to stay for months at a time.

Archie Gunn, the artist, was one of their best customers, and the dozens of pictures he made there, and presented to the Halls, are still on view. Most of the pictures that cover the walls date back to the beginning, Gibson Girls, odd kneeling figures that take on 'the appear ance of Skulls, from a distance. Aside from the decorations, however, things have changed. Bert Hirsch has become a famed violinist, a notable orch leader; Pearl White lives In Paris; Maurice Costello Is now the retired father-in-law of John Barrymore, and automobiles whiz out there from Brooklyn In two hours; dinners start at $2 and work their way north. Mrs.

Hall hasn't changed much, though. She Is Just as genial, as charming, as hospitable as ever. Maybe you don't think that, in thls era of alleged progress, that doesn't help! SKYSCRAPER A thousand feet Above the town, Among the startled clouds, It thrusts its gaudy. Tinsel crown A mark for gaping crowds. A painted stone-heap Out of place While somewhere, All In vain, A hillside turns Its pitted face Bleakly to the rain.

DEMI. ADDENDA Bringing up the subject of Bert Hirsch, the violinist, as we Just did or are you one of those hit-and-run readers? reminds us that musicians honest-to-gosh musicians, we mean, frequently run out to Centerport Just to examine his violins. One of the Hirsch violins-he only uses it for concert work-is a Sanctus Serafln. It was made way back in the year 1738; has a beautiful golden varnish, a top of fine spruce and. a back of curly maple.

It is exquisitely carved, an outstanding example of the work of Its maker. It makes Hirsch think of a beautiful woman. His other AMUSEMENTS MANHATTAN AFTER IUMUKKUW JOHN OOI.DKN W. SS SI. fir.

Bruce Bellamy Charles Campbell Orme Charles Trowbridge Florence Willlngton. Byington amusing, though every effort is made to force it to seein so. Then the decorator has a fight with her tough but handsome assistant. Then she makes up. Then he gets made at her.

Then they fall into each other's arms for a final curtain. And that's about all there is to "Ladies of Creation." I think it may run for quite a while. The appearance of cleverness is sometimes as effective as cleverness itself. If the play succeeds, the scenery the actors will be responsible. And only the scenery is really good.

The actors, though not good, are no doubt wise. They know their business. They act. But it would be hard to be enthusiastic about Chrystal Heme, who lets no grass grow under her feet, nor about Dorothy Mackaye, who hasn't been seen in these parts in some time and brings an eager energy to her job of burlesquing a movie queen, nor about Spring Byington, who Is a delectable actress wasted in her present role, nor about Paula True-man, who is as clever as anything but hasn't a part in which it wouldn't be wise to be better than very efficient. John B.

Lltel as the robust assistant isn't required to seem so foolish as the others and so seems to act more sensibly, and Fred Stewart, playing a flowerlike interior decorator's second assistant, manages to be foolish without laying it on too thick. His Is the performance of the evening. D1CKSTEIN- tlon begins there on the second in the series of Booth Tarkington "shorts." "Play 3all" is the title of this newest adventure of Penrod and Sam, in which 7-year-old Billy Hayes plays the part of Penrod and Jackie Kelk the role of Sam. Alf Gouldlng Is directing the Tarklng- ton series. The energetic Mr.

and Mrs. Jack Norworth, veterans of the Vita phone "short" field, also are helping to keep things humming at the Flatbush plant. The Norwortns. 01 course, are continuing with their familiar "Naggers" comedies. The production program at War ners' Brooklyn studio, where only Jhort subjects are made, calls for two one-reelers and one two-reeler each week.

Purely Personal Movie stars, like most of us commoner mortals, have their pet aversions. If you don't believe It, here are a few samples: Ina Claire Is wearing long skirts on the street. Helen Chandler doesn't like meeting strangers. Ona Munson simply detests speaking over the telephone. Gary Cooper, the big, strong, si lent man of pictures, would rather do anything than give an interview.

Jark Oakle hates evening clothes. You could get Frances Starr to dn almost anything but fill out a questionnaire. Jimmy Gleason's pet aversion, by nil own confession, is rhubarb.

The opening on Monday night was the biggest in the history of the Majestic Theater, every seat being sold and every inch of standing room taken.
