William Haines aided and abet- “Schnoz- zle” Durante and Ernest Tor- rence, get into financial scrapes and out of them again with the agility of a Houdini in a milk can, and fun galore results. As a back- ground for the comedy situations is an attractive romance in which Leila Hyams plays a prominent role. Suggested by Magazine Stories Suggested by the popular George | Randolph Chester stories in a fead- ing magazine, the plot deals with the get-rich-quick activities of the| genial grafters who involve a num-; ber of “suckers” into ingenious swindles. Haines as the quick-wit- ted Wallingford enters into a con- spiracy with a feflow crook, Blackie Daw, in which they hoodwink Tut- tle, a Syracuse manufacturer, to the | tune of $25,000. The only flaw in their expertly engineered plan lies | in the fact that Tuttle has paid | them in the form of a certified| check which when endorsed wxll subject them to arrest.

ELKS TO STAGE DATE CHANGED Mothers’ Day Program Will| Be Given by Lodge Next Wednesday The annual program given by Dorothy, a pretty telephone op- in love, unintentionally proves the | undoing of the sharpsters, for Wal- lingford, in a desire to help her parents in a commercial venture, entrusts the check to Dorothy’s| father, who promptly deposits it |in a bank. The clever manner in| which the complications are even-| tually ironed out make for a high- ly diverting comedy with a satis-| fying share of both romantic and | dramatic moments. | Haines has never been seen to better sdvantage ‘than in his char- | acterization, a role "somewhat in| the nature of his excellent Jimmy Valentine” of some seasons, back. | Perfecting Brand of Humor Durante, who plays the Chfl[-‘ feur, bhas brought a refreshing/ new brand of comedy from the New York stage to the screen and gets howls of laughter with the slightest action. Torrence, as the saxaphone-playing Blackie, is an ideal role for Haines’ whimsicali- ties. Miss Hyams is not only; charming to look upon, but plays| a difficult role with convincing skill. Excellent work is also done by Guy Kibbe as the detective, Hale| Hamilton as the banker, Robert| McWade as thé ‘“sucker,” Clara Blandick and Walter Walker asj Dorothy's parents. ‘Charles MacArthur’s adaptation of the original Wallingford stor- | ies is excellent. Sam Wood directed. —————— NOTED ALASKAN INDIAN GATHERED T0 HIS FATHERS| Sumdum Charhe Aged 80 i Years, Dies at Govern- ment Hospital 1 ©One of Alaska's widely known Indians, Charlie Sumdum, 80 years old, has been gathered to his fathers.
