1 “The Canary Murder Case” was put | into production recently at the ParaI mount Studios as an all-talking pic- ! ture. The silent version has been com- ! pleted and is now in the process of * editing and titling. William Powell I will again play the role of the detecI tive, Philo Vance, in the dialogue pro- ; duction. Other members of the cast remain the same, including James Hall, Jean Arthur and Louise Brooks. Following a vacation trip which Director Raoul Walsh is to take to hasten his recovery from his recent accident, he is to set out for Panama to make scenes for “The Cock-eyed World,” in which Victor McLaglen is to be starred. It was originally announced that “The Cock-eyed World” was to be made with the same cast as "What Price Glory.” That, however, is scarcely possible now with Dolores Pel Rio a star in her own right and Edmund Lowe in demand as a leading man.
