Damon Runyan Story It's a story by the man who knew them all, Damon Runyan, author of “Lady For a Day"—and it concerns the touts and the | bookmakers, and all the innumer- able small fry who hang around Broadway. It has laughs, and it has tears, but most imporant it is an honest tale about the -charity and the kindliness concealed be- neath even the stiffest shirt-bos- jom, in trkat hardest of all arteries —Broadway. Topping the cast are suave and inimitable Adolphe Menjou; | gorgeous Dorothy Dell, who made ther motion picture debut in | “Wharf Angel,” and such sea‘on- |ed performers as Charles Bick- ,ford, Lynne Overman, Sam Har- (dy, Frank McGlynn, Sr, and Crauford Kent. Little Shirley Temple first en- ters the plot of the story when {she is deposited with Menjou, as | collateral for a bet, by her fath- ler who subsequently disappears. Broadway Goes Sofi Menjou, shabby, sodden and grim, finds his heart melting before the charm of this innocent child, who fancies that his “tough” friends are the knights of King i Arthur’s Round Table. Before long, half of Broadway on a cooperative venture—help- | ing him to raise the little girl. ‘But it is in the final episodes, when a tragic climax is narrowly averted that the nobility of these | strange people really asserts itself. and Menjou and Miss Dell are happily united through their love for the child: D {CHOIR OF TRINITY CATHEDRAL GIVING CONCERT ON SUNDAY The Twilight Hour program to be given by the choir of Trinity Cathedral next Sunday afternoon ‘at the Cathedral, will start prompt- ly at 3:30 o'clock.
