NEW APPARATUS FOR SOUND
RECORDING:
BERLIN, Feb 23 (T/Ocean). The Reich Batind Recording Film Collaboration Board," has Just been termed, with the co-operation of the Reich, frst to develop and crganise the production of a new sound-recording-dhi apparatus, in
which disc records are replaced by: endless albanièls, and to assure the promptest exécution of the ex-1 tenstvé orders already received Lrown foreign countries.
The Chief of the Official Staff of the Fuehrer's Chancellory, Kari Heinrich Hederich, has been ap pointed President of the Board.
These new apparatus have been so far improved in the past years that musfe and speech are repro- ducible win a faithfulness to the original, never attainable with dise records. The new sound recording [technology, therefore, had adran- rages particularly in as far as re- cords of unlimited length can be played without intérruption.
A GREAT MOTION PICTURE
Superb in, every essential of a truly great mibliori picture, "Härte Antoinette," which opened yes- terday at the Kingi Thea tre, is the peak of two careers, those of Norma Shearer and Tyrone Power.
Convincing in every scene, pas- alonately romantic, and grimly tragle, their co-starring for the first time in the picture that resumes Miss Bhearer's brilliant career is the perfect teaming.
