Mae Murray to Be "The Big Sister" I MAE MURRAY, LASKY STAR, IN PARAMOUNT PICTURES. One of the first outward manifestations of the practical advantages of the recontly formed merger of the Famous Players Film Company and tho Jesse I. Lasky Feature Play Company Is the fact that Mao Murray, who has appeared under tho Lasky banner since her debut on tho screen, Is now working on vdg-Ing vdg-Ing her new Paramount picture, "Tho Big Sister," at the Famous Players studjo under tho direction of John B. O'Brien, Famous Players director. Never before has nuch a situation arisen between the two companies except once in the case of Marguerite Clark, who was loaned to the Lasky Company for tho production of "The Gooso Girl," after sho had created a sensation In her ocreen debut In tho FamouB Players-Lasky production "Wlldllower." In tho caao of Mao Murray, however, her conversion to the roster of Famous Fa-mous Players stars is only tho first of many similar steps that aro sure to bo talcon as circumstances wnrrant. It so happens that the atmosphere of "Tho Big Sister" Is strictly Eastern in every aspect and that, although It could bo produced at Hollywood, Cal., .where the Lasky studios aro situated, tho transportation trans-portation of MIsa Murray to New York represents a far less expense than that which would be incurred In traveling on tho Pacific coast In search of location and of dovotlns groat areas of floor spaco to tho erection of studio sets. i
