HELEN HAYES IS, STAR OF FILM OPENING SUNDAY, “The Son- Daughter Un-, usual Drama of San Fran- | cisco’'s Chinatown “The Son-Daughter,” much her- alded filmization of David Belas- co’s great play, with Helen Hayes, heroine of “The Sin of Madelon Claudet,” and Ramon Novarro, is the attraction Sunday at the Capi- tol Theatre Based on a dramatic situation fairly staggering in its force, the story, a drama of Chinatown, is en- acted by an elaborate cast, all play- ing oriental roles in a thrilling se- ries of plots of highbinders, revo- lutionists, and tongs; spectacular celebrations, gambling dens, weird catacombs and other authentic Ori- ental excitement. Triumph for Both Stars Miss Hayes plays a Chinese girl who sells herself in a marriage auction to aid her countrymen. The | role rises to dramatic heights that would tax the talenis of a Duse or Bernhardt. Miss Hayes is magni- ficent in the part, scoring a tri- umph even greater than that in her role of “Madelon Claudet.” No- varro, as the lover who rescues her from her predicament, suggests the! Novarro of “Ben-Hur” in the viril- ity of his characlerization of the Chinese revolulionary leader. Clarence Brown directed the pic- ture, and can chalk up one of hisj biggest triumphs fhereby. Excellent supporting work is done by Lewis Stone, Warner Oland, Ralph Mor-, gan, Louise Closser Hale and H.!| B. Warner. Hundreds appear in the great street scenes, march of the great Chinese dragon and other spectacles of the picture. Last Times Tonight Loretta Young, Lyle Talbot, Win- nie Lightner and Regis Toomey in “She Had to Say Yes,” unusual ex- pose of the “customers’ girl” rack- et in the wholesale business, will be seen at the Capitol Theatre for the last times tonight. Also on the program are selected short sub- jects and a late news reel. BEST PICTURE GONTEST ENDS THIS EVENING Today is the last opportunity for movie ‘fans to enter the Best Pic- ture Contest for 1933 as no cou- pons bearing a postmark later than February 10 will be consid- ered, according to Manager ClLff Daigler, of the Capifol and Coli- seum Theatres. Votes for the best picture seen here in 1933 have been piling into the contest editor’s desk and each day brings a change in the posi- tions of different pictures. Seventy-six pictures have received one or more votes and today’s cou- pons brought in fifty more. An idea of the closeness of the contest is indicated by the fact that among the ten pictures re- ceiving the most votes, two are tied for first place, two are tied for sixth place and two are in a tie for seventh place. Among Leaders Among the pictures that are well in the front are, ‘Sign of the Cross,” “Smilin’ Through,” “Grand Hotel,” “Gabriel Over the White House, ‘Prosperity’ “So Big" “White Sister,” “Fugitive From e Chain Gang,” “Cavalcade,” “Ras- putin and the Empress,” “The Big Drive, “Big Broadcast,” “King Kong,” ‘‘She Done Him Wrong," “Lady For a Day,” “Farewell to Arms,” “Frisco Jenny’' “Forty- Second Street,” “State Fair,” “Red Dust,” “Successful Calamity,” and “Strange Interlude.” Clip the coupon and mail it to- day with your selections of the ten best pictures you saw in 1933. ——eee——— LET YOUR Valentine be flowers.

Here is the same old Dix—hand- some, virile, energetic. But here al- 50 is a new Dix—a great character | actor. Jasper is shorn of heroism. He's not noble, but human. He's bad, but intrinsically lovable. Adapted from Fulfon Oursler's novel, “The Great Jasper,” now playing at the Coliseum Theatre, tells the story of the way of a man | with his wife and other men's| wives, Jasper loved his wife, Jenny. Loved her when he was a horse car driver, an electric car motor- | man and a superintendent. Loved | her when McGowd drove him out | of town for being the father of his wife's son. Loved her when he be- came a rich and famous fortune teller in Atlantie City. But Jenny couldn't believe him because he loved other women, too. He fell for them as naturally as| they fell for his wicked wink and winning smile. The day of regret doesn’t come to Jasper until his son by Me- Gowd'’s wife ruins the happiness of | Jenny’s son by practicing {he same | heartless wiles as his father. Jas- per’'s selfish philosophy of snatch- ing from life what he wanted for his happiness at last deals him a blow! Dix is superb as the swsgxer!ng winking Jasper taking his triumphs | with a frank pride that is disarm- ing. Wera Engles, a lovely Ger-| mun beauty, is a charming Mrs.| MeGowd, the “finest lady” he ever loved. Edna May Oliver gives an- other of her unforgettable portraits, | this time being a bogus fortune| teller. The wife is intelligently en- acted by Florence Eldridge and | Bruce Cabot, Betty Furness and| James Bush provide the second-| generation triangle. - e ATTENTION MASONS { Stated Communication at Mt.| Juneau Lodge, Masonic Temple, Monday evening, 7:30.
