VAN NUYS, Calif. (AP) - Edward Bernds, one of Hollywood's first sound engineers who went on to direct Bowery Boys and Three Stooges movies, died Saturday. He was 94.

Bernds came to Hollywood in the late 1920s during the advent of talking pictures.

He handled sound for Frank Capra's classic films of the 1930s - including ``It Happened One Night'' and ``Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.''

Bernds later directed eight of the Huntz Hall and Leo Gorcey Bowery Boys romps. Next came the Three Stooges
- with such films as ``The Three Stooges Meet Hercules'' and ``The Three Stooges in Orbit.''

Bernds' role as a pioneer in motion picture sound was recognized with a special award for technical
achievement from the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures.
