Vol, it is. a-rangcly enough, an American production, as Adolph Zukor need not to point out. The Lat Command" has its introduction in a Hollywood studio. itSrc. the course of the prediction of a film concerned wi.n the uprising against the iatc Czar, attention is centered upon a bent and trembling old -extra." This old fellow goes bv the name ol Dokorucki.

His Mudio 'record card bears the apparently extravagant information tint Dohorurki was once the Orand Duke of Russia, that he was cousin to the Czar and commanding general of the Imperial Army. And now His Imperial Highness" is simply Mr. polgorucki. preparing to earn his $7.50 for a day's work at a Hollywood movie studio. i This situation established, the locale of the film shifts to Russia the vear 1917, when the armies of the Czar were engaged in war with the Central Powers and in suppressing the first signs of rebellion which even then were threatening the pillars of empire.

Who in the prologue, was seen as Mr DolKorucki. a broken old man applving grease paint before a streaky mirror in a studio "extra" room, is now revealed as His Imperial Highness, the Orand Duke of Russia, commanding many Czaristic regiments along the Eastern front. Subsequent episodes trace the inevitable downfall of the Romanoff household, the consequent capture of this hated Grand Duke bv a mob of revolutionists and his miraculous escape from a torturous death. The scene shifts again ten years later back to the studio of the Eureka Pictures Company in Hollywood. A Grand Duke of Russia is about to earn $7.50 for a day's work in the movies, plaving a Grand Duke of Russia.

Bv an ironic gesture of fate tire man in the director's chair is a person strangelv familiar to this trembling old fellow who now wears so cumbersomely and ridiculously the uniform of a -general of all the Russian armies." Yet not too strangelj familiar, since, on close inspection, one mav discover a scar on that director's "temple where, under somewhat different circumstances. "Mr. Dolgorucki" had left an imprint oi a heavy whip handle. The lights go up on the Eureka set: the directbr orders the little studio orchestra to play the Russian r.ition-p.l anthem; "action" is commanded, and the cameraman begins to turn his crank. And Mr.

Dolgorucki, dramatically attired in the uniform of His Imperial Highness the Grand Duke of Russia, prepares to earn his interprets his role with an eloquence seldom achieved in motion pictures. He must, from now on, be considered among the truly great artists of the screen. WILLIAM FOX presents SUNRISE with Svmnhonic MOVIr ilJNh Accompaniment An FJ W.

MONDAY: To the Algonquin for lunch to near rernanao Germani play the Organ at Wan-amakers to see what New York looks like after dusk from formance was thoroughlly professional. Brace and security distinguishing all that he did. But his dancing is limited in its means of expression, and variety of costumes hardly secures it immunity from monotony.

Mr. Cartier characterized a Japanese actor, a literary style, the American Indian and a Voodoo idol with well contrived but too similar angular gestures and rhythmic stampinps. In moments when he cast aside the primitive dance-forms that leant his periormance its flash of originality, he descended to the obvious and the mediocre. This was especially true of the number intended to charac-utemize the Calumus section of Whitman's "Leaves of Grass." To the writer it seemed that Mr. Cartier was at his best In his reconstructions of tribal dances elsewhere he exhibited lack of authentic fancy and imagination.

As for Miss De Mllle. she succeeded with her audience. The method or style of her dancing is an adroit com bination of classic ballet (her knowledge of which she turns to the service of humor and irony) and the pantomime of Antrim Knters. Miss De Mille presented two amusing and rather touching number inspired by the painting of Degas. But she sacrificed the appeal of the classic ballet by burlesquing it and she Is insufficiently sub'le an artist to succeed as a mime Additionally, her dances were not devoid of a certain calculated coarseness which, though It might amuse, was out of place In a periormance e.iven under the ausnires of art.

to find out how much longer your boy I Rian's stomach Is going to hold out lunch at the Kiwanis Club, which does its singing at the McAlpin to a Mexican Art Exhibit at the Art Center on 56th and to Nick's because it was only ten blocks away to Gonfarone's on 8th for an Italian dinner, and to a rehearsal of Colony House Capers at the Apollo Studioa in Brooklyn to the Forrest Theater to catch the last two acts of MIRRORS, which premiered there and to Lew Rich-man's for a ginger ale. THURSDAY: To read "In the Golden Nineties" by Henry Collins Brown, whom we know and admire, and who knows more about Old New York than your greatgrandfather he's the author of the yearly Valentine's Manuals which you'll enjoy to the Gong, on MacDougal Alley, for lunch, and to hear Count Herman Keyserling lecture at Town Hall to the Polignac for a swell dinner and to the premiere of "The Patriot" at the Majestic, which is magnificently done to the Kretchma for a Cutlet Pojarsky and home. FRIDAY: To meet Leo Kober. the artist, who is going to illustrate our Sunday effusions, which start, in the mag section, on Feb. 5 to Huylers for a Malted and to the Metropolitan to hear Chaliapin in Faust and to recret that Mme.

SATURDAY: Up late and to hear the last performance of the season of Turandot, at the Met and to thoroughly enjoy Jeritza to Kennedy's for a leisurely dinner and to review the picture at the Colony to Club Richman. which was Jammed, and to look in at the Ambassadeurs around the corner which was fairly filled too to the Morn. Telly to meet Beau Broadway, whose name is Drieblatt, and who is a lady, and who was gone when we got there, and to Reubens to look at Beatrice Lillie eating a slaw sandwich, in company with Clifton Webb and home. SUNDAY: To the Symphony at the Capitol to Douglaston to kid one Grandmother, whose eyes aren't blue at all.

Tonight is the night when you either do, or don't, see Colony House Caners. George M. Miles staged it, and Brooklyn Society comprises the cast, and it's all for Charity anyway, which is a first-rate reason why you should attend. Your boy Rian will be there if his dinner Jacket holds out.

At the Academy of Music and DO come over. Sonata Appassionata, Mr. Moiseiwitseh progressed to Schumann's Kreisleriana, the Jeux d'eau of Ravel, pieces by Palmgren and four selections from Chopin. His playing was uninteresting and apparently uninspired, though he exhibited much technical skill and ease of execution, and his tonal palette encompassed the merest whisper and an unsatisfactory forte, one that is unresonant and a bit harsh. The Intermediate shadings were not oversubtle.

One derived from his playing a curious sense of aloofness and impersonality. His reading of the Appassionata Sonata lacked verve and spirit, the first movement dragged disconcertingly and the brilliant rondo, while taken at a merry pace, was dry and ineffective. The Gallo Theater In the evening was the scene of an odd entertain ment by the Fay Foster Trio. This organization presented a program of "songs and dramatized ballads" In four tableaux: Medieval Germany, America In 1849, London in 1770 and Venice in 1779. The costumes were supposedly typical of period and locale.

The singing was entirely negligible and, as an amusement, held few merits. Accompaniments were furnished by Miss Fet imore, pianist, and the Harrv Fagin String Quartet. However, at the Bijou Theater, Nina Gordanl, diseuse. appeared In a costume recital that proved both interesting and diverting. She gave a group of songs from Spanish California, some Bayou Ballads In the original French patois, a group of negro songs and a group of "favorites by request" In German.

Neapolitan, Irish and Yiddish. With a minimum of voice, Miss (Jordan! provided a delightful evening largely through her attractive pcrsonelit.y and vivid histrionic actions.

One must, of course, discount its slightly incandescent title to appreciate even the faint shadow of sincerity which flickers in its celluloid, but sincere it frequently is and on that account it is quite likely to please the guests at Edward Hyman's playhouse this week. Again Art Kahn and his amply celebrated stage band form the major unit of the Brooklyn Strand's surrounding program. This time their syncopated vehicle is called "Jazzing the Blues Away." a designation which is made no less justifiable by the presence in this episode of Billy Tichenor. Theo Alban, Johnson and Hewett and the Serova Dancing Girls. The Mark Strand Ballet Corps, which, on close inspection, may be found to be composed of none other than the Serova Dancing Girls, is presented in a pleasant animated tableau called "In Holland," and the Mark Strand orchestra is concerned with a musical fantasy.

A film of purely pantomimic interpretation, permitting not a sin gle subtitle to express what can be maicatea oy the brilliant perform ance of its star, the story is told of a proua oia carriage starter a Berlin hotel who sinks to the degradation of a lavatory attendant, only to rise in the end to the affluence of guest of honor in the same hostelry. Jannings gives here what ha3 often been declared to be his supreme performance. On the same bill the St.

George presents a Ufa undersea study-called "A Fight for Life" and an interesting short subject, "Young Hollywood." Tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday the feature film at the St. George Playhouse will be "Man. Woman nrir! Sin." co-starring John Gilbert and I Jeanne Eareis. As the society edi- tress of a Washington newsnaper who i falls in love with a cub renorter. miss man.es her motion picture experienced but hardly more accom plished John Gilbert.

Supplementing the feature will be a Ufa scientific film, "The Parasol Ant," and an "Inkwell" comedy. -Raymond Griffith in "Hands Up." one of that comedian's most amusing pictures, will be the main screening at the St. George on Friday and Saturday. Also scheduled on the same program are "The Flag," an informative subject done in natural colors, and "The Guest," a two-reel drama. Music of the Day By EDWARD CUSH1NG IT WOULD be difficult to overestimate the debt of gratitude that we owe to those British musicians who visit us annually In increasing numbers as apostles of learning and ambassadors of culture, and while praising them for their philanthropy, let us not forget to commiserate with them upon the hardships which it en tails.

It must indeed be trying to the patience of Eugene Goossens to spend his winters in a land where Joachim is unknown and where his neigriDor at dinner is apt as not to speak of the Hungarian Concerto as a piano work by Liszt; but in time, if Mr. Goossens and his fellows persist in their labors of enlightenment, con ditions may be perceptibly bettered. in me meanwhile the work of regen eration has claimed a new practitioner Goossens, who, assisted by his brother and the Marianne Kneisel yuartet, gave an oboe recital yesterday afternoon In the Guild Theater. The program opened wi'h Mo-zart's Op. 101 for oboe and strings and embraced a Sonata Pastorale, for oboe ana piano, by David Stanley Smith; pieces for quartet by Tschaikowsky and Hugo Wolf, a Concerto for Oboe by Eugene Goossens and a quintet for oboe and strings by Arthur Bliss.

Mr. Goossens revealed a masterful tecn-niquc and an astringent, pinched inferior to that of any fir -it oboist harbored by local or neighboring orchestras. The recital was attended by a number of oboe a few personalities eminent in the musical world and representatives of the general public Both the Philharmonic and New York Symphony orchestras gave matinees, the former playing for the last time under the direction of Bernardino Molinarl and the latter playing for the last time under the direction of Ossip Gabrilowitsch. The programs of these concerts were essentially repetitions of others given earlier in the week the audience In Carnegie Hall listened to Mr. Molitie.ri'.i vrr-: Ions of Rossini.
