Show POLL Y COMING BACK k 7 A FTER all, Paulino Frederick is "p . " nt completely lost to the regular ' ' drama. Although the fllmB have f.. claimed her for about four years and she still has a contract or two for screen work still to fulfill, next fall will find her back at the old stand, portraying emotion with her vocal cords and not through the medium of celluloid. Miss Frederick executed a contract v recently with A. H. Woods agreeing to this return to first principles. Under Un-der his direction she will open in a New York theatre on Labor day in a it ILj new play written by Willard Mack en- R titled "Lady Tony." m The signing of the document recalls Ki an incident that marked Miss Fred erick's entry into the films four years ago, At that time she was appearing in "Innocent," and held a contract for throe years with Woods, One day she came to the manager and showed him a proposed contract from the Famous Players offering her five times her salary sal-ary in the regular theatre. Woods instantly in-stantly released her, and Miss Frederick Fred-erick promised him that when she did come back to the stage she would appear ap-pear under his direction. UThis arrangement does hot mean that Miss Frederick will abandon the screen. As a matter of fact, she will probably be seen on both the stage and screen simultaneously next fall. |
