Director of "Hunchback of Notre Dame" Acted Classic
At the California Theater Sunday will be held the widely heralded premiere of the Universal production, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" which won the unqualified praise of New York critics, being generally hailed as the finest achievement
At the California Theater Sunday will be held the widely heralded premiere of the Universal production, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" which won the unqualified praise of New York critics, being generally hailed as the finest achievement of the age.
Throughout the Hugo masterpiece runs a beautiful love story—certain changes were made in the production, in order to avoid offending any particular religious body, but these changes have been endorsed by all who have seen the production.
Lon Chaney heads the stellar cast of 3091, which includes such notables as Ernest Torrence, Patty Ruth Miller, Tully Marshall, Brandon Hurst, Nigel de Brulier and Winifred Bryson. The majority of these are as well-known on the stage as on the screen.
Wallace Worsley, who directed the filming of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," occupies the unique position of having produced in motion pictures a theme in which he once acted on the legitimate stage. A role in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," when it appeared in legitimate drama was Worsley's first stage appearance. That was 22 years ago, but he remembered well the unfortunate handling of the theme that kept it from attaining the success that should have been its, and in the film production it need not be assured, the same mistakes were not repeated.
In other ways Worsley was peculiarly fitted as the director for this production. Worsley's favorite subject in Brown University was French history. His initial theatrical role revived this interest and through all of the intervening years he has been a student of French history. His knowledge is such that he could have been waked up in the middle of the night and he would have been able to direct from almost any period of French history.

Why pay tribute to a Superstition?
The idea that "eastern" motor oils—merely because they cost more—are in some mysterious way "better" is just as baseless as the superstition about the black cat crossing the road, illustrated above.
Automotive engineers have long recognized that the most suitable crude petroleum so far discovered from which to manufacture a motor oil is produced on the Pacific Coast. It is Naphthenic Base Crude.
"Thinning Down" an Advantage
"Although thinning out more rapidly, the (western) oil does not show any greater
The idea that "eastern" motor oils—merely because they cost more—are in some mysterious way "better" is just as baseless as the superstition about the black cat crossing the road, illustrated above.
Automotive engineers have long recognized that the most suitable crude petroleum so far discovered from which to manufacture a motor oil is produced on the Pacific Coast. It is Naphthenic Base Crude.
"Thinning Down" an Advantage
The motor oil (Zerolene) which is refined from this crude has characteristics somewhat different from those of eastern paraffine base oils. It "thins down" more rapidly for one thing, and this fact is often cited against it. But this is really an advantage instead of a defect. Because it thins down more rapidly, it reaches an effective lubricating body sooner, and follows more closely the changing bearing clearances of the engine as it warms up.
Highway Commission Finds the Facts
Some time ago the engineers of the California State Highway Commission decided to subject this anti-western bogie to the brutal test of actual comparison. Read the summary of these tests, printed in the 1921 Biennial Report of the California State Highway Commission:
"Although thinning out more rapidly, the (western) oil does not show any greater breaking down under high working temperatures than the (eastern) oil, nor was there any greater deposit of carbon. Neither did the viscosity after use increase or decrease any more in the case of one than in the other."
A Better Oil Even if It Does Cost Less
Zerolene, because we employ only selected crude and hold the patents on our high-vacuum refining process, is, we are convinced, one of the most carefully manufactured oils on the market, whether of eastern or western origin. Yet it costs about one-third less than eastern oil.
In seven years the sales of Zerolene have increased seven-fold. The more experienced the motorist, the less likely he is to pay tribute to a superstition. He insists on Zerolene even if it does cost less.
