IT'S A COMEDY | )v PRIZE FIGHT SCENE IN FEATURE, PALACE ‘The longest prize-fight on recurd" took' place at Universal City dur- ing the making of “Alias the Dea- con,” the picture starring Jean Hersholt which is at the Palace for the last two times tonight. I Sporting writers may sing of the lengthy and gory battles of John L. Sullivan, Jem Mace and Jake Kilrain, but’ Ralph Graves and Tom Kennedy fought for three days all for' the scenes in “Alias the Dea- con.” Be not alarmed, however, for all this will not appear in the picture Edward Sloman, who directed “Alias the Deacon” was determined to have'the fight realistic and con- vincing, and he filmed each indi- vidual clash of the combatants many times. “Alias the Deacon” is a pleturiza- tion of the highly popular stage I Attractions At Theatres a5 joyed such successful engagements in virtually all of the large cities of thé land. It was written by Jolin 'B. Hymer, and adapted to the screen by Charles Kenyon. June Marlowe plays the ingenuc lead opposite Graves, with Myrtle Stedman, Lincoin Plummer, Ned Sparks, Mauricc Murphy and others in the cast. B2 i | MAY M'AVOY CHARMS t 1 IN TALKIE FEATURE | B e May McAvoy delighted the crowd at the Coliseum last night in her latest Warner Bros’ starring ve- hicle, “Stolen Kisses,” a talkie, in which, she is pictured as a much- criticized modern bride who sets sail with her not too ambitious hus- band—his crabbed father and the latter's meek male secretary—to Paris. Once in the city by the Seine— unlooked ‘for complications whirl the four tourists into such a furore of amusing adventures as the screen has" rarely seen. Folies Bergeres beauties; adventuresses, home- wreckers, jazz-bos, and all sorts 4nd' conditions of peoplé and prop- erties set the couple altogether at odds, but finally whisk them back again—ready and eager to set sail for good ol U: S. A. " The sprightly "story is from the pen of Franz Suppe. E. T. Lowe, Jr. did the scenario and the cast includes Hallam Cooley, Clatide Gillingwater, Edna Murphy, Reed Howes, Agnes' Franey, Arthur HOyt and ' Phyllis Crane. Ray ' Enright directed. ‘The photography is es- peciélly fine as are the sets. ' The beauty revue ‘is just that and al- together “Stolen Kisses” is as cap- tivating a’ bit of whimsicality as you ‘will be likely to see. * The other talkie features are all high class. - - | MARIE PREVOST IS | AT PALACE FRIDAY Marie Prevost, sparkling comedfi enne of the screen, has the role of a salesgirl in “Man Bait” her new Metropolitan plcture which "will be on view at the Palace Friday and Saturday. The screen play is adapted ‘Trom ‘the stagé success of thé same name by Norman Houstan and was prepared for the screen by Déuglas Z. Doty.
