Sherwood's stage suc- cess, “The Queen's Husband.” It is laid in a mythical monarchy in the North Sea. Lowell Sherman has the role of King and Nance O'Neil enacts the role of Queen. Robert Warwick returns to the as Prime Minister. Mary Astor is beautiful as Princess Anna, the King's daughter. Queen Arranges Marriage ‘The Queen, for political purposes, arranges the marriage of the Prin- cess to a dissolute Prince, then leaves for a tour of America. Then mischief breaks . . . the re- volt starts . ..the King asserts himself and the situations from then on are dramatic and hu- morous. Expert Supporting Cast Anthony Bushell, as the King's secretary and the princess’ sweet- | heart is excellent, while others in the cast, Alan Roscoe, Gilbert Em- ery, Fredric Burt, Carrol Naish, Hugh Trevor and Desmond Rob- erts, give commendable perform- ances. Radio Pictures took feww liber- ties with the original Robert E. Sherwood’s play, “The Queen's Husband,” and the rosult is a commendable production. e e e was made in 1929 by Lieut. A. W. Gorton, and at the 1929 national air races the first transfer of a passenger by plane from airshin to ground was accomplished.

HAROLD LLOYD STARS TONIGHT IN ‘FEET FIRST’ Famous Co;;d—ian Will Be| Seen in Thrilling Com- edy at Coliseum Harold Lloyd appears tonight in “Feet First,” at the Coliseum. Harold is seen as an ambitious young apprentice shoe clerk who, in his effort to make good with h&s‘ employer gets into all kinds of humorous situations—putting gun- boat sized shoes on the cute toot- sies of his employer's wife; crash- ing a soclety ball in order to im- press a young lady he falls in love | with; finding himself aboard a| trans-Pacific steamer without & | ticket; hiding in a mail bag oniy to be picked up and carried with the mail on a ship-to-shore air- plane, and finally landing on a painter’s scaffolding in mid-air, wrapped up in the mail-bag. Hair Raising Thrills, Then follow those hair-raising thrills which are so typically Lloyd. He wriggles free from the bag, looks about him, and realizes with| horror that a slight jolt will cata- pult him hundreds of feet to the ground below. He almost loses his grip in one screaming lurch after another, but finally makes a safe descent to terra firma. Deserves to Win Needless to say he wins the girl— and hé deserves to, after such a hazzardous experience. ‘The girl is Barbara Kent. Oth- ers in the cast are Robert Mc- Wade, Alec Francis and Lillianne Leighton. i ———————— Old papers for your fires, at The Empire. | SUMMONS FOR PUUBLICATION No. 3165-A In the District Court for the Ter- ritory of Alaska, Division Num- ber One, at Juneau. ’ PHYLLIS L.
