Theatrical News LLU LLL LL ARARARAR BAND PLAYS AS BIG BATTLE RAGES, The Loves of Pharaoh" Screened on River Spree The river Spree, which any geo- graphy will reveal as not in Egypt, fairly swarmed with Egyptian sol- diers in the summer of 1921, while Ernest Lubitsch was directing his greatest Paramount picture, "The Loves of Pharaoh," Barly in the morning steamers and lighters with thousands of ex- tras on hoard were acquiring the ra- cial characteristics of ancient Egyp- tians and Ethiopians, While the band played merrily these extras landed in the Egyptian city and were greeted by thousands of '"'sa- vage warriors" gathered at the shore, .
