EVERYBODYS’ PICTURES. “COMPROMISED.” Ben Lyon, featured with Rose Hobart in “Compromised,” tiie First National picture which comes to toe Princess Theatre to-night, is not only a golf enthusiast but a low handicap piayer. Tn.s is reason that when Booby Jones arrived in Hol.ywcod to make a series oi golf shorts, Ben resorted to inventions equal to tiiose of a small boy tracking down a , ball-game or the ciic<ife+-in order to watch the wizard jnj figpion. 'there is one golf sequence on and Lyon arranged u;ith'•director John Adolfi to get the troupe on the links where the scenes were to be shot on an afternoon when Jones Would be sure to be tliere. Ben figured that he could see Bobby work, between scenes in his own film. At the last minute the director of the Atlanta boy changed J,lie schedule, and he was doing interiors, when the “Compromised” company arrived. Of course he was on an adjacent set, which might have been in Timbuctoo for all the good it did to Ben. Others in the cast of “Compromised” are Delmax Watson the four-year-old child actor — Claude Gillingwater, Juliette Compton, Bert fßonch, hnima Dunn, Florence Britton, Adele Watson, Louise Mackintosh, Virginia Sale and Edgar Nqrton.
