This story, of three wives who find that their husband go hunt- ing, not for ducks as they claim but for chickens, and who turn the tables on their deceivers by hiring three college boys to make love to them to aroumse their hus. band's jealousies, screamingly funny. The sub titles which accompany the .action, the casting, direction and the story itself, make, all to- gether, a perfect picture. Louise Fazenda, gorgeous blonde, who insisted on having a real Spanish lover with a kick, while she is at the business of getting even with hubby, is ideally cast and gives a perfect performance of a neglected wife who 4furns foose for the time of her life. ‘While J.

Tt is a splendid fast-moving comedy. Edward Everett Horton has gained a wide reputation as be- ing ohe of the- most delightful comedians on the screen today.

This time the story has a novel twist by introducing Tom as a baseball player in his off moments when not occupied in his ranch duties. The love interest is supplied by one of ‘the screen’s most beautiful actresses, while others in the splendid cast are: Ethan Laidlaw, J. O'Connor, Alfred Hewston, Ger. trude Claire and Barney Furey. The screen adaptation was made by Wpyndham Gittens from the story by Frederick A. Mindlin. Robert De Lacey is the director. NATIONAL BOARD OKAY | “LONE WOLF RETURNS"” | S “The Lone Wolf Returns,” the feature photoplay production at the Palace Sunday, is one of the new season’s productions which has been signally honored by the National Board of Review, as hav. ing passed that Governmental cen- sor hoard without a cut and win- ning a place on that body’s list of selacted and endorsed photoplays. The placing of this picture on their selected list has been consid- ered remarkable due to the fact that stories of underworld adven- fture have heen out of favor with censors, social workers and a large' majority of others. The deft work of the scenarist who made the filry version of this popular Louis Jos. eph Vante story as well as the splendid handling by Ralph Ince, its director, is mainly responsible for the removal of the .stigm: from the story while at the same time its elements of interest and appeal have not been sacrificed. — - GIRL APPLICANT STUMPS GRID SCHOOL OFFICIALS LAKELAND, Fla,, July 20.—The summer training school for foot. ball coaches at Southern College, Lakeland, Fla., will be a co-edu- cational affair if authorities heed the plea of Miss Grace Murrell, a member of ‘the Lakeland high school faculty. i Miss Murrell plans to coach the Lakeland high school football team this fali so she has applied for ad- mission to Coach Wallace Wade's training course. Jess Burbage, registrar, says he has no reason to refuse Miss Mur- rell admittance in the school ex- ‘cept that “it would cramp the rtyle of the men to have a woman round.” 1 THE DL\lLY ALAbKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, JULY 20, 1928.
