Crisp, i 110W AN OCEAN LINER TOSSED ABOUT ON LAND Did you ever see an ocean linter as a section of an ocean liner-tossed about by a storm on dry land? Prob ably not. The proposition sounds foolish, doesnit it? Nevertheless, it has been done-and in this wise: Certain scenes in the William Far numn d luxe production, "The lan lilunter," are laid upon the deck of a liner. In pre-war days 'Frank Lloyd, director of the play, would have en gaged a regular ocean-going vessel for a day or two to make these scenes; but with Uncle Sam taking over everything that floats, Mr. Lloyd was compelled to eIther build a deck section of boat hinself Or leave it out of the play. As it was an essen tial part of tile )l'oduction h10 had no alternative save to erect it. It was a connecting link twith scenes ti: bad beeni taken on ,board the coast wise vessel The Governor on a trip from Los Angeles to San Frnacie Malany of these scenes on board The Governor were made lin rather rough weather. The vessel pitched and tossed--and this broighti about tihe 94A-. have J. W bpring *ored a Dresse and S, Foxa: Thorn ,patter Ren problom of making the constructed deck move. This iwns done In a novel way; in faot it was a creation of technical genius- and the effect was there to the liiit. It was on this (leek constructed oin land that Mr. Marnuin had one or the several fierce fights Ilp the picture; and -while the flght was in pro:.-ress 75 men were engaged In making the deck pitch for ward and aft and from port to star board. Expert Government shop officials visited the William Fox lot In Holly wood for the sole purpose of getting a line on the coistruction of the rock 1ng motion for the (leck. The scenes on this deck were taken at night and a host of people took part in them. "The Man Hlunter" will be shown at the Opera louse Friday of this week.
