...indictments. The Golding fame rests largely on the Golding flair for secrecy. But never did soft shoe men indulge in such a brouhaha of publicity as did Mr. Golding in Philadelphia. He issued detailed announcements. He had his sleuths grouped and photographed at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel. It was obvious that Mr. Golding wanted to give Philadelphia's 'leggers an even break.

Associate producer is to be George White (Scandals), who last week declared that he was quitting the stage for sound-pictures. So the genre of the proposed Berlin work is obvious, quite like the music of The Cocoanuts, which he composed for the four Marx brothers and the Follies of 1927, which he made for Florenz Ziegfeld. How much Composer Berlin will get for this work neither he nor President Joseph M. Schenck of United Artists last week would...
