For instanre, there's Lieut. George
Swan, recently at Verdun as Expedi
ente Officer with the Morgan-Harjes
Unit of the Foreign Legion. He was
recently presented the solid gold cup
offered by Margarita Fisher to the
first "Flying A" actor to distinguish
himself at the front, and has all sorts
of laurels bedecking his noble brow.
Yet in "Charge It to Me" Miss
Fisher's latest starring vehicle, he
plays the part of "Hercules Strong,"
described in the subtitle as "a one
cylinder flivver with a low mental
compression." and figures as the vic
tim of a struggle with a burglar
"Bull" Montana. Swan preferred to
arise after the making of each seen
and get straightened out. but "Bull"
insisted they must not deviate from
their respective positions. As Swan
is a bubble-weight and "Bull" an ex
tra -heavy, the Lieutenant was kept
pinioned to the floor. Wonder what
the Army Regulations have to say to
such treatment handed out to an of
f icer and a gentleman I

the front doors.
