ruin his reputation and thus
divert attention from those re
sponsible for the condition of
affairs in the nation.
He asks that Governor Roose

RALPH BELLAMY

Ralph Bellamy, six foot, 1751b
young actor, seen with Ruth
Chatterton in “The Magnificent
Lie,” believes in breaks. His two
biggest chances came unexpect
edly: A New York producer de
cided overnight to give him
role in a new play originally in
tended for Walter Huston; Para
mount selected him from a score
of applicants for the role op
posite Ruth Chatterton.
Bellamy was born in Chicago;
ran away from home to join a
barn-storming troupe; toured
the smll towns East, South and
Middle West; sought and ob
tained stock engagements in
Boston, Des Moines, Nashville
and other cities.
Broadway gave him his chance
when Walter Huston was unable
to play the lead in an Arthur
Hopkins play. He made a hit.
When the play closed he receiv
ed thirteen offers of other en
gagements in five days. He chose
the films, and played in “The
Secret Six.”
“The Magnificent Lie,” comes
to the Coliseum Theatre, Sun
day and Monday.
LOUD GUNSHOT
-x
It was so quiet you could hear
a pin drop—but no one expected
a dropped pin to sound like a
gun shot. It did, however, on the
set of “Big Business Girl,” when
William A. Seiter, director, was
trying to record the ticking of a
watch on Loretta Young’s wrist.
The electrical power of the
microphone was stepped up to
make the mike super-sensitive.
At the end of the scene the
sound-monitor called out “Thai;
was fine, except for the gun
.somebody shot off during the.
scene.”
No one on the set had heard
a sound, but investigation dis
closed that a bar-pin from Lor
etta Young’s dress had dropped
to the floor too close to the mic
rophone. i
Supporting Miss Young in “Big j
Business Girl,” at the Coliseum
Theatre, on Saturday, are Frank
Albertson, Ricardo Cortez, Joan
Blondell, Dorothy Christy, Nancy
Dover, J. C. Nugent and Virginia!

the Basques and long a favorite
with Parisian artists and Holly
wood boulvardiers, is a distin
guished part of Warner Baxter’s
colorful costumes worn in “Their
Mad Moment,” Fox romantic
drama of the Basques, to be
shown at the Coliseum Theatre,
Tuesday and Wednesday.
The picture was filmed from
Eleanor Mercein’s novel, “Bas
querie,” which deals with the ex
citing, dramatic lives of these
unusual people who dwell high
in the Pyrenees. Besides the ber
et, or “Boina,” as it is known to
the Basques, Warner is seen
wearing “alparagatas,” the rope
soled, canvas shoes and the
vari-hued shawl that is invari
ably part of the true Basque
costume.
Dorothy Mackaill portrays the
feminine lead in the picture
which was co-directed by Hamil
ton MacFadden and Chandler
Sprague. f
