This new competition for Am- erican films was not expected for at least another year. “The Singing Peony” ls the title of the piece and it is a feminized Chinese version of the well-worked plot that employs a vocalist's gifts to inject pathos into a screen play. It even includes an adaptation of “Sonny Boy.” The child happens to be a girl, but the idea is the same. The lead is played by Miss But- terfly Wu, China’s leading film ac- tress. Her vocalizing has a quality all its own which makes it sound like a prolonged shriek to western ears, but she possesses, by Chi- nese standards, one of the best voices in the country. She portrays a famous singer in North China who spends her earn- ings on a more or less shiftless and worthless husband. Technically there is room for improvement in the sound repro- duction. The male actors have been kept thoroughly in the back- ground and the recording of their Synchronization is also poor. But these faults are overlooked by Chinese auditors. They can un- derstand the picture and they like it. —————— STUDY THAMES FLOODS LONDON—Tidal flooding along the Thames and means of pre- venting its recurrence will be studied by a commission headed by Sir William Hart.

HAVANA MAYOR SEEKS RETURN, BULL FIGHTING Spanish Sptflay Be Re- vived During Com- ing Fall HAVANA—Bull fighting, which the American occcupation following the Spanish-American war, will be back in Havana next fall if Mayor Tirso Mesa has his way. Attempts to' re-establish the Sp- anish sport have previously failed principally because of the opposi- tion of an American woman, Mrs. Jeannette Ryder. Several times she leaped into bull rings and by exhorting the spectators against cruelty to animals shamed them into leaving. But Mrs. Ryder died a few weeks ago, and Mayor Mesa believes the | time is ripe for a revival. By virtue of his mayorship he is also president of the National Tour- ist commission, and he advances the argument that legalization of bull rings would stimulate tourism as well ‘as bring revenue to the government. ———————— MEMORIAL DAY FLOWERS For the accommodation of those wanting ' flowers -and plants for MEMORIAL DAY our store will ibe open untii NOON TOMORROW May 30th JUNEAU FLORISTS, (adv.)
