Robinson, one of the finest actors on stage or sereen is playing the stellar role, in First National's “Bullets or Bal- lots” at the Capitol Theatre. In this film he plays the part of a hard-boiled detective of the two- fisted school who breaks up an or- ganization of rocketeers. For a long time Robinson was not entirely satisfied with his screen roles. He thought he to play again a character resemb- ling “Little Caesar.” In that, the role which catapulted him to star- dom, the character was so strong that ever since, although that was made several years ago, he has been identified with it. ..In “Bullets or Ballots,” such a role. plays a clear-cut, definite character, ds definite as anything he has ever done, save the time he is on the sifle of law and order. 11In the cast are such talented play- ers as Joan Blondell, Barfon Mac- Lane, Humphrey Bogart, he Has should like| As Johnny Blake he; Frank| ;McHugh, Joseph King and many| others.

SIGRID ARNE AP Feature Service Writer SHINGTON, Jan. 23. — The baseball season was cpening in De- troit in 1831, and teams were| idling their posts waiting for the mayor’s lady-like toss, whieh traditionally puts the ball in play. But the mayor that year was the red-headed Frank Murphy. The players s ened a little a hc lvfl his box and walked nervousl; the pitcher’s mound. He wound up and let fly a burning curve over| home-plate.

Lost Money On Change | Between the mayorality and the igovernorship lie three years as U 8. high commissioner of the Phil- ippine commonwealth. Murphy resigned the Philippine ;post and ran for the Michigan gov-| ernorship when Democrats decided | his political presence would go far| | toward holding Michigan for R | | velt. | He is Irish enough to laugh at financial spot it put him on. H “My friends will vote to take me |out of a job that pays $18,000 a year for one that pays $5000,” he said at the time. “And my foes will vote to keep me in the better payng job.” | His pay check still means more t0| | him than it does to the usual man in high office. He “confided to his friends recently that his savings |account is just reaching the conval- at-| in| of | le- | i | : {escent stage due to the $18,000 he {had been earning in the Philippines. | He’s No Joiner | He has been teacher, lawyer, !
