It is “The Bishop Misbehaves.” | Maureen O’'Sullivan, fastest-ris- ing young screen actress who re- | cently scored in a prommenl mle‘ in Garbo's “Anna Karenina,” pld}s the romantic feminine lead opposite | Norman Foster, popular young lead- | ing man. { The story deals humorously with the madcap revenge of a young Eng- lish girl on an old dodo who has | embezzled her ailing father’s mon- ey. Failing to find justice in the courts, she resorts to an ingen-| iously planned robbery, in which | she is aided by a young Amencan architect, who' sets himself up as a friend of Al Capone’s, and a clus- | ter of enthusiastic but non-profes- | sional English characters. | A double bill playing for the last | times tonight includes, “Wanderer of the Wasteland,” and “His Fam- ily Tree.” | Ao Congressional 1 Independence 1 Hlnts Changes| i | | (Continued 1rom Page One\ ing declared himself an active can- didate, he has felt no responsibility , for speaking out.

They | merely venture the opinion that, 1936 being what it is, he would not sit down at Topeka and hope that’ the Presidency would come his way. They foresee him staking every- thing on an active campaign. They acknowledge that such a course might expose him to exper- iences quite new to him, but they figure that’'s what will happen—if and when the opportunity presents itself.

Those who allot places in the press gallaries are smothered under an outpouring of applications num- bering many hundreds more than there are seats available. The crush for spectators’ tickets likewise is overwhelming, many of the applicants are willing to spend hundreds of dollars of their own money journeying from far points to see the show. Even at Philadelphia where the Demojyratic proceedings are ex- pected universally to follow a pat- tern well-understood in advance, the demand already is heavy and insistent.
