SILLS GAVE UP
COLLEGE JOB
FOR THEATRE
Actor Was Professor
At U. of Chicago But
Stage Lured Him
Away
"Every man. once in his life,
stands before the Rubicon of his (is.
sire. Either he plunges across to
the victory by following his inner
ambitions. or he loses by turning
his back from the course he longs to
follow. .
"In either case. victory or defeat
is irrespective of success or failure
in the choice he makes."
Milton Sills. former University of
Chicago professor. thus accounts for
his leaving the chair-of philosophy
for the life of a. strolling player. He
is appearing today and tomorrow
with Doris Kenyon at the Rialto
Theatre in his latest First National
picture. “I Want My Man."
Sills took many a knock from cold
theatre audiences that made him
rue. temporarily. his abandonment
of college calss-room audiences. But
his philosophy was one of self-ex-
pression. His heart was in the the-
atre. and his feet. always led him
back there to try again.
Finally. on Washington's Birth-
day. 1909. he opened in New York
in "This “'oman and This Man."
by Avery Hopewood. He scored a
big hit. Sills had found himself.
After that. came seasons on
Broadway in “Servant in the llmwo"
with Henry Miller: “The Fighting
Hope." with Blanche Bates; “The
“’t'r-t-k." "Diplomacy." "Mother."
"Tho Governor's Lady" and others.
in 19” he made his first picture.
under Maurice ’l‘ourneur. in "The
Pit." followed by “The Deep I'ur-
pie." Then he. played in "Under
Southern Skies." “The. Honor Sys-
111111;" then a serial. “Paula." with
Mrs. Vernon Castle, and in numer-
ous other films.
Then he was engaged by First.
National to be featured with Colleen
Moore in “Flaming Youth." which
was followed by 11. series of First.
Nationals. including "lv‘lowing Gold"
“Tho Sea Hawk." “Madonna. of the
Streets" and “As Man Desires.”
in "I \\'ant My Man," adapted
from the Strutht-rs llurt novel. “The.
lnterprcter's House." Sills is t‘O-it‘fl~
lured with Doris Kenyon. It is the
story of a. man who returns after
eight. years abroad seeking cure for
blindness and finds 011 regaining his
sight that the world is in the grip of
an a Tier-11 ar pleasure dcbaurh.

Some people pronounce my first
name Lose. But I'm not vindictive.
I know they don‘t mean it that way.
I used to be a school murm and I
know that lots of kiddies think they
would be happier if all teachers
went into the. movies. I belong to
the South. and some folks will tell
you where that is. whilst others will
tt-ll you what it is anti still others
why it is. I‘m not in the nioi'ies
because of any special desire to see
myself face to face—u mirror is al-
ways handler and is more truthful
and to the point. Nor do I like do-
ing things over and over until my
actions happen to coincide with the
director's point of view. I'm there
purely and simply because the But-
cher and linker and Mr. Item-Taker
have not yet, devolved into public in-
stitutions like the Library and Mn-

me. I realize. that I haven’t really
told you a thing about myself. but
then that is the case with all real
autobiographies. One only learns
things about us when we die and
somebody writes our biography and

That Is Big Situation
In “Proud Flesh,”
Now Showing at the
Regent
A girl's heart swaying between
the choice of a. man of culture and
refinement and a. ,caveman of the
proletariat is the‘theme of “Proud
Flesh," a Metro-Goldwyn-.\iuycr
production. which is being shown
today and tomorrow at tho ilegent
theatre.
The picture was directed by King
Vidor, whose last film was "Wife of
tho t.'cntaur." Eleanor Hoardman
plays a somewhat different role as
Fernanda. a sophisticated girl who
is eventually carried away by the
cart-1111111 tactics of Patrick O‘Malley.
The character O'Mallcy is depict-
ed by Pat O'Malley. and in this role
he awakens in Fernanda desires
which overcome the environment in
which she has been reared.
She turns from Don Jaime. a.
suave Spaniard. played by Harrison
Ford. to O'Malley. Don Jaime. al-
111annerisms are indicatho of the
class he represents. when Fernan-
da‘s heart prompts her choice.
The Scenes are laid in and near
San Francisco and include a thrill-
ing spectacle of the San Francisco
earthquake and fire. The character
Fernanda is born amid this car-
nage. but taken to Spain on her
birth. On her return to her native
land she meets O'Malley, and the
call or the primeval predominates
despite the presence of Don Jaime, '
an ardent suitor who has followed
her from Spain.
The cast is completed with Trixie
Friganza. Priscilla. Bonner. Sojln
Rosita Marstlni. William J. Kelly.
Evelyn Sherman, George Nichols,
Margaret Seddon and Lillian Elliot.
"i’roud Flesh" is from the novel
of that name by Lawrence Rising.
and is one of the most popular
books of the year. Mr. Rising. and
Mr. Vidor in the film. have treated
the story in a humorous manner.
