CANTOR COMEDY
STAGE COMEDIAN WRITES. DIALOGUE FOR TALKIE. If you were one of the many whose ribs were strained by the excruciat- - ing fun of "Caught Short," be sure to leave an evening open for "Mr. Lemon
of Orange," the Fox talking comedy which opens on Monday at the Majestic Theatre for its dialogue flowed in large measure from the typewriter of Eddie Cantor. The effervescent comedian hoped to play the title role of the picture himself. When he discovered he would be unable to make any picture for a whole year, he wrote the dialogue in collaboration with Edwin Burke. El Brendel, so-starred with Fifi Dorsay, has the role originally desired by Cantor.
