THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 4, 1930. PALACE TONIG H’] Hear Them Talk! with Lionel Barry Karl Dane Leila Hyams TALKING REPORTER CHARLEY CHASE in “OFF TO BUFFALO” Made for Laughs 50—Loges 75¢ COMING “THE LAST WARNING” with LAURA LA PLANT and JOHN BOLES Attractions At Theatres AL JOLSON IS NOW APPEARING, COLISEUM I L P e S S| Eyerybody who attended last night's performance at the Coli- seum, of “Say It With Songs,” is cast including Montagu Love, Roy «I¥Arcy, Margaret Livingston, John ‘Boles, Bert Roach, Burr McIntosh [ 3 l | —— “Tomorrow’s Styles T, oday” Berets Featured in both the crocheted and knit weave in a full range of colors. Priced $1.65 and $3.00 “Juneau’s Own Store” —oed [talking A1 Jolson! The star of “The Binger” and “The Fool,” is here again in a play in which he reaches even greater heights—"Say It With Songs.” Davey Lee is with him. In this tender, enthralling dra- !ma Jolson plays the part of Joe Lane, former prize fighter, but now a writer of songs and radio enter- | tainer. The world looks rosy to him | |and he believes that Phillips, the man who is backing him, is doing so for friendship sake, but finds out that jt is to win the love of | Lane's wife. Infuriated with jealousy Joe at- tacks the man, who falls, strikes his head on the curb and dies. Joe| is sentenced to a long term in Sing Sing. Feeling that his wife will suffer from the disgrace, he urges her to divorce him, telling her | t he no longer cares for her. ‘This she does, putting their child in a b school, and taking a po- | sition as nurse in the office of a| surgeon who was a former lover. This is the starter. ! Davey Lee is his own delectable | baby self, Marian Nixon is exquis- ite as the young wife and mother, but it is Jolson who makes of “Say It With Songs,” a masterpiece, ut- terly unlike the masterpieces of other geniuses. You really “aint seen nothin’” until you have seen Jolson’s “Say It With Songs.” | Jazz Singing |53 | WILLIAM HAINES IS AT PALACE TONIGHT The stage's greatest play brought { to the screen by the movies' most popular comedian. That is William Haines' new star- ring picture, “Alias Jimmy Valen- tine,” again tonight at the Palace with talking sequences. Haines plays another of the gor- |geously human roles which won i‘ im such great popularity in “Ex- |cess ‘Baggnge.” The wise-cracking | comedian has added a dose of hu- {manness and hos to his char- | acterization w lifts him into the forefront of screen acting. The story is the old familiar one ileL has brought tears and laugh- ter to audiences in nearly every {theatre in America for a genera- |tion. Haines is the wise crook whof | upsets the police departments of | {half a dozen cities and virtually de- | fies arrest. He is aided in his nefarious as- |saults on society by funniest crooks the screen has ever seen, Karl Dane and Tully Marsh- all. Opposing them is the detec-| {tive played by Lionel Barrymore, a grim and seemingly heartless per~! ,sunnh(y that yet is as natural and jhuman as any role the great actor {has as yet enacted. T “TWIN BEDS” COMEDY COMING TO COLISEUM [+ ] Hold your sides, for “Twin Beds"” {is coming! Guaranteed to be a 100 per cent laugh picture, this gay First Na- tional-Vitaphone talking comedy, {which stars Jack Mulhall, will ar- rive soon at the Coliseum, to de- light and amuse local theatre-go- ers. “Twin Beds” as a stage farce from the pen of Margaret Mayo and Salisbury Field, was one of the funniest of comedies. As a talking picture is is said to be a scream. | Mulhall is aided in the fun-mak- ! ing by a very clever cast, headed by Patsy Ruth Miller, and contaih- ing such names as Eddie Gribbon, Zasu Pitts, Knute Erickson, Ben Hendricks, Jr., Jocelyn Lee, Nita | Martan, Edythe Chapman, Armand | Kaliz, Gertrude Astor and many others. The picture was directed by Al Santell and is said to be one of the finest piloted by this successful director. Mulhall has never appeared to better advantage than in this hi- larious comedy and it was chosen by First National officials as the ideal vehicle for his first starring picture. . ’|’ LAURA LA PLANTE AND | JOHN BOLES SOON HERE [ ——————— | “The Last Warning,” a Universal talking picture adapted from the famous mystery play of the same name by Thomas F. Fallon, based on the popular novel by Wadsworth Camp, is coming to the Palace ‘soon. It is a real 'thriller, with Laura La Plante in the leading role, di- rected by Paul Leni, who directed Miss La Plante in “The Cat and the Canary,” last season’s screen rthriller. Appearing with Miss La Plante in “The Last Warning” is a strong and a dozen or more other princi- pals. The picture was supervised by Carl Laemmle, Jr., and is guar- anteed to give creepy spines to the most sophisticated audiences. ‘The story deals with a, threatre which has been closed for five years because of the mysterious death of a popular actor, Suddenly, an attempt is made to put on the same play in' which he met his death, with the original cast as far as possible. The ghost of the mur- dered star seems to haunt the theatre. Strange and fearful things happen. e — — NOTICE The office of the Oriental Co- Operative Corporation is now lo- | measurable.
