WEE HOUSE FLY
FULL-FLEDGED
SCREEN ACTOR
An ordinary housefly plays a part
in “Lady For A Day,” the Damon
Runyon story, which comes to the
Dream theatre Tuesday night, not
only plays a part, but in the few
seconds he is shown on the screen
he dominates all the human actors.
“Dave the Dude,” leading man of
the picture, played by Warren Will
iams, is a gambler who’ll bet on
anything. So, too. will "The Greek,”
another gambler. They place lumps
of sugar on top of overturned glass
es in p cafe scene, and Dave wagers
$1500 a fly will light on his lump
before one does on the Greek’s. And
the story calls for the Dude to lose
the bet.
“How are you going to make a fly
light on one lump of sugar rather
than the other?” someone asked
Frank Capra, who was directing the
picture. “And how are you going
to get hold of a fly that will light
anywhere at all?”
“Elementary,” said Capra. “First,
the property department gets a lot
of flies and keeps them hungry for
a couple of days. Then we release
one right close to the sugar-lumps.
If this fly buzzes away, we let loose
another and another, till we get one
that will light to feed
He’s sure to light on the Greek’s
sugar, because on that has been
placed a few drops of a substance
that attracts flies. On Dave’s lump
has been put some chemical whose
odor repels flies It’s a cinch. Dave
the Dude never had a chance to win
that bet It was ‘framed’—and I’ve
heard of that being done in real life,
too.” >
