A FILM ABOUT DERBY DAY

A film about Derby Day is to be directed for the Gaumont-British Corporation by Mr. Alfred Hitchcock. Though the race, itself will be recorded, the story will be chiefly concerned with its possible effects on different people. The scenario is by the director.

The production of a film about the early history of the Canadian Pacific Railway is also being considered by the Gaumont-British Corporation, and officials of the corporation have already left for Canada to confer with the C.P.R.
