The condominiums are coming along fine and we are showing you some pictures of construction. Can't give you a sales pitch as, for some reason, it's against real estate regulations, but you can certainly see them when you come out. Con­ dominiums are becoming very, very popular in Palm Springs and they are springing (no pun intended) up all over. They say it's the only way to fly ·- I mean, live , in Palm Springs. Your club looks fine and running very successfully - noon-time in the Bar and Garden Room makes you think you are in Club 21 (Jack and Charlie's). We had such a good picture of Charlie, Mollie and grand­ son, thought I would give it the place of honor. In the not too-distant future, three more tennis courts will be built when our old-fashioned bungelows in the 20's are going to be removed. Who says tennis is not on a terri­ fically big upswing.

  • Film Essay for "7Th Heaven"
    7th Heaven By Aubrey Solomon In the years between 1926 and 1928, Hollywood ex- perienced a maturation which blended art and indus- try to a new level of cinema. Influenced heavily by the experiments of foreign talents, largely German, new concepts of cinematography, lighting, set de- sign, and special effects known as “trick shots,” per- meated American film-making methods. The somber and sometimes morbid themes of German cinema also seeped into their films, often to the chagrin of American exhibitors who preferred their own exuber- ant optimism and happy endings. “7th Heaven” characterizes a perfect blend of opti- mistic romantic fantasy and German influenced pro- duction design. It also became one of the most pop- ular films of the late silent era. Its opening title card set the tone: “For those who will climb it, there is a ladder leading from the depths to the heights - from the sewer to the stars - the ladder of Courage.” Based on a hugely successful play by Austin Strong which ran at the Booth Theatre on Broadway from October 30, 1922, to May 21,1924 for a total of 685 performances, it portrayed the travails of young lov- An advertisement from a June 1927 edition of Motion ers who meet amidst the sordid gutters of pre-World Picture News.

  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.

  • Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen
    Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen Introduction Until the 1980s, the community of musical scholars in general regarded film music-and especially music for the silent films-as insignificant and uninteresting. Film music, it seemed, was utili­ tarian, commercial, trite, and manipulative. Moreover, because it was film music rather than film music, it could not claim the musical integrity required of artworks worthy of study. If film music in general was denigrated, the theatre organ was regarded in serious musical circles as a particular aberration, not only because of the type of music it was intended to play but also because it represented the exact opposite of the characteristics espoused by the Orgelbewegung of the twentieth century. To make matters worse, many of the grand old motion picture theatres were torn down in the fifties and sixties, their music libraries and theatre organs sold off piecemeal or destroyed. With a few obvious exceptions (such as the installation at Radio City Music Hall in New (c) 1991 Indiana Theory Review 82 Indiana Theory Review Vol. 11 York Cityl), it became increasingly difficult to hear a theatre organ in anything like its original acoustic setting. The theatre organ might have disappeared altogether under the depredations of time and changing taste had it not been for groups of amateurs that restored and maintained some of the instruments in theatres or purchased and installed them in other locations. The American Association of Theatre Organ Enthusiasts (now American Theatre Organ Society [ATOS]) was established on 8 February 1955,2 and by 1962, there were thirteen chapters spread across the country.

Italy, 1902–1988), who was hired by George Eastman during the late period of silent cinema, from 1924 to 1928, to design and hand-paint film posters for the Eastman Theatre in Rochester, New York. In advance of seeing the films themselves, Madalena would work with still photographs, press materials, and his passion for particular performers to create one-of-a-kind posters promoting larger-than-life subjects, all on a scale that could be clearly seen from cars passing the theater’s outdoor poster vitrines. Working alone over a four-year period and against deadlines that required as many as eight new posters a week for each change of bill, Madalena created over 1,400 original works before the end of his tenure, when the theater changed management. Approximately 250 of these posters survived when the artist himself rescued them from the trash behind the theater.

  • Theory, with Special Attention to Moving-Image Materials
    /227 Manifestations and Near-Equivalents: Theory, with Special Attention to Moving-Image Materials Martha M. Vee Differences betlceen manifestations and near-equivalents that might be con­ sidered significant by catalog users are examined. Anglo-Amelican catalog­ ing practice concerning when to make a new record is examined. Definitions for manifestation, title manifestation, aud near-equivalent are proposed. It is suggested that current practice leads to making too many separate records for near-equivalents. It is recommended that practice be changed so that near-equivalents are more often cataloged on the same record. Next, differ­ ences between manifestations and near-equivalents of moving-image works are examined, and their Significance to users of moving-image works is assessed. It is suggested that tme manifestations result lchen the continuity, i.e., visual aspect of the work, or the soundtrack, i.e., audio aspect of the work, or the textual aspect ofthe work actually differ, whether due to editing, the appending of new material, or the work ofsubsidiary authors creating subtitles, neu; music tracks, etc. Title manifestations can occur lchen the title or billing order differs lcithout there being any underlying difference in continuity. Distribution infonnation can differ without there being any underlying difference in continuity, creating a near-equivalent. Finally, phYSical variants ornear-equivalents can occur when phYSicalfonnat differs without the involvement ofsubsidiary authors. A manifestation of a work is a version differences that might be considered sig­ or edition of it that differs Significantly nificant by catalog users, and the ways from another version or edition.

The films chosen by Mrs. Bowser will be transferred from highly perishable nitrate stock to tri-acetate and stored under proper climatic conditions, subject to periodic examinations. The preserved prints will always be at the disposal of the company, the Museum official pointed out, and from the Museum's permanent copy other prints may be drawn, should a reissue be desirable at some future date. The present films to be shown include, John Ford's "Three Bad Men;" Murnau's "City Girl;" "Lazybones," starring Madge Bellamy and ZaSu Pitts; "Sunnyside Up," with Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell; "Zoo in Budapest;" and "The Cockeyed World."

  • Time Line of Coachella Valley's History
    Time Line of Coachella Valley’s History This booklet is designed to accompany the History of the Coachella Valley – a Curriculum Guide for 3rd Grade Teachers. Names written in BOLD represent the bio-sketches beginning on page 6. The events on the time line and the bio-sketches include only a few of the many people who have contributed to the vibrant history of the Coachella Valley. Spanish explorer, Juan Bautista de Anza, passed south of the 1774 Coachella Valley through Los Coyotes Canyon in search of a land route from Sonora to Monterey. Captain Jose Romero, a Spanish explorer, entered the Banning Pass 1823 to look for a land route to Yuma. Not until his second attempt did Romero made it all the way to Yuma. The William Bradshaw Trail stage route started through the Banning 1863 Pass from Los Angeles to the gold fields of Arizona. The Southern Pacific Railroad’s first steam engine made the run 1876 between Los Angeles and Indio on May 29th. The next year the line was completed from Indio to Yuma. The use of the Bradshaw Trail as a stage route ended with the 1879 development of the railroad. The New Liverpool Salt Company began operation in 1884 when 1884 George Durbrow shipped what he called “white gold” to San Francisco. Albert G. Tingman built Indio’s first store northwest of the train 1885 depot. John Guthrie McCallum and his family were the first non-Indian 1885 settlers in the Palm Springs area. McCallum established the Palm Valley Land and Water Company.
