ENGLISHMAN TO ACT LATE PRESIDENT
English actor GQdfrey Tearle will play the controversial role of Roosevelt in the atorp-bomb film 'Beginning of the Erid." Tearle bears a striking resemblance to the .ate President Roosevelt. M.-G.-M., whose choice of actor Lionel Barrymore was coldly vetoed by Mrs. Roosevelt, pulled Mr. Tearle out of the blue last week. No objecfcion to Tearle is expected from the Roosevelt family. Brother of the late Conway Tearle, a star of silent film' days, Godfrey Tearle has acted for 50 years in England but has never appeared in the United States.
