Born on Feb. 14, he was a Valen- tine's Day present to his parents, Mayer and Emma Benny, who lived' in Chicago before they re- turned to the haberdashery busi- ness in Waukegan. Jack is in a picture, "The Big Broadcast of 1937," which \a so stars George Burns and GraciQAllen, that well- known Jewish-Isish combination of film funsteri whose stock has risen greatly `since the last Rosh Hashonah edition of this paper came off the press. Edna Ferber, America's fore- most women novelist and author of "Come and Get It," now being filmed by Samuel Goldwyn, was working on the Milwaukee (Wis.) Journal when she wrote and Fold her first story. She continued as a reporter, working on the Chi- cago Tribune, where she started her first novel, and has been a famous literary figure ever since. Sally Eilers likewise has had a successful year in motion pictures. This veteran actress continues to enjoy great popularity with Amer- ica's film fans. A new five-year contract has come to Mark Sandrich, brilliant young RKO-Radio director, as a reward for his outstanding record in megaphoning RKO musical suc- cesses and other feature produc- tions. On the verge of receiving his bachelor of science degree from Columbia University, Sand- rich, now 34, left college for a motion picture career. He worked his way upward steadily from property man through the various stages of assistant cameraman, cameraman, assistanst director and director. His directorial success started with short comedies, and he won the Motion Picture Acad- emy of Arts and Sciences Award for the best short subject with "So This Is Harris." He directed three Fred Astair-Ginger Rogers smash hits. J. Edward Bromberg was suffer- ing from a case of "sea legs" in the middle of a synthetic Sahara Desert when he first encountered the wonderland that is Holly- wood. Three hours before he had disembarked at Los Angeles har- bor from ■ leisurely cruise from New York. With his two trunks, his suitcase, and a bundle of fenc- ing foils under his arm, he was driven to the Twentieth Century- Fox studio, to which he recently was placed under contract, and started work immediately with Ronald Colman, Victor McLaglen ind Claudette Colbert (wife of Dr. Joel Pressman) in ''Under Two Flogs." His legs, still ac- customed to two weeks on the ocean, felt unsteady beneath him. His usual calm and orderly life was thrown off balance. and it took him a while to get his bear- ines. New York and other cities remember Bromberg well as a star of the Group Theater and Eva Le Gallienne's Civic Reper- tory Group and many famous stage plays. Another film comedian whose star has ascended in the Holly- wood heavens recently is Benny (Zifkin) Baker, the pride of Lin- coln and Omaha, Neb., and Roch- ester, N. Y., where his theatrical career started. He is now under contract to Paramount Pictures. Norma Shearer is very much in the limelight now with her newest picture, "Romeo and Juliet." She is the wife of Irving G. Thalberg. brillian MGM producer well known for his artistic successes. Sam Heard has returned to New York after completing his part in Jack Benny's film, "The Big Broadcast of 1937." We don't have to remind you that Heard is the "Mr. Schlepperman" of radio fame. J. Levin Appeals for Payment of Dues to Old Folks' Home . Jacob Levin, president of the Jewish Old Folks' Home, has issued an appeal to all members to pay their dues during the holidays and thereby to assure the comfort and happiness of the aged people in the home. Mr. Levin's plea follows: "On the occasion of the New Year the members of the board of directors join with the aged residents of the Jewish Old Folks' Home in extending to you and your family their best wishes for a very happy New Year. "Your generous contributions and hearty support during the past years have enabled the board of the home to carry on the good work for which this home is founded. Everything that could be done to promote the comfort, the welfare and the happiness of the old folks was accomplished within the limits of our means. "We make this plea to you to remember— "Do not forsake us in our old age, cast us not off when our strength faileth. If your dues are not paid, please do no now. "Permit us to express our gratitude and thanks in the name of the officers and board of directors of our home, as well as for those who cannot come to see you, those whom your support will help—our old folks." Carl Laemmle's retirement from the film industry after the sale of his Universal Pictures to a syndii- cate was one of the news hjgh- lights of recent months. caliA, is now enjoying a well-earned -Nee- tion. Marking a quarter of a century since his entrance into motion pictures, Ernst Lubitsch, Para- mount producer-director, was guest of honor at a party given at the studio recently. Mr. Lubitsch', colorful career as a theatrical genius cannot be covered in just a paragraph or two, however, so we shall have to wait and tell you more about him in a special ar- ticle to me written soon. LeROY TO PRODUCE OWN PICTURES but at last the rest of the civilized world took up the fight, and finally, years later, Captain Drey- fus was vindicated and completely reinstated in the French army. Featured in the film will be the celebrated "J'Accuse," the open letter to the President of France in which Zola accused several of- ficers, witnesses against Dreyfus, of being themselves guilty of the espionage with which the Jewish captain was charged. woo nest, 1936. 9 .
