Price established himself firmly in Broadway the- atrical circles by his excellent per- | { formance in the role of Prince Al- I bert opposite Helen Hayes during | the two-year run of Miss Hayes' | play, “Victoria Regina,” in New | York. With the two principals will be | seen a cast which includes Char! Ruggles, Mischa Auer, Helen Brod- erick and Joy Hodges in the chief supporting roles. ; “Service De Luxe” deals with an iv.'«'lu.slve personal service bureau | | which undertakes almost any as-| | signment from its elents.

You'll have to go to it, if you wont to see it in the near future—and you'll have to go to San Francisco or New York to see it. It's “Land of Liberty,” Hollywood's all-industry eplc of 150 years of American history, designed for presentation at the two world’s fairs. Seeing “Land of Liberty” makes you sort of proud of Holly- wood. With all its reputation for history-botching, the movie industry has included in its efforts, over a quarter-century period, more than enough authenticity in dramatic historical recreation to piece together this exciting record of America's bq’innln“ progress and expansion, and present state. . ..

Change the daily routine with a surprise visit any day of the week at Juneau's lead- ing cafe — PERCY’S Newcomers to fandom: will have no difficulty spotting sequences from the recent Warner series of “patriotics” covering the Revo- lutionary period, but they should note too some Griffith stuff spliced in there. The War of 1812 comes from “The Buccaneer,” largely, and the story of Texas from “Man of Conquest” in the main, The Civil War — one of the screen's most amply covered periods — brings in Lincoln in the persons of Frank MecGlynn and Walter Huston, and his assassination in scenes from the more récent “Prisoner of Shark Island” and “The Plainsman.” - Recon- struction leans heavily on “So Red the Rose" rather than on “Birth of a Nation,” but there's a fleeting scene or'two from that early trail-blazer unless these eyes are mistaken, Much later in the record news-shots come in—Teddy Roose- velt figures once thus, twice as impersonated by actors. ~ But Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosvelt are played only by themselves. The latter part of the film traces the industrial revo- lution and its effects on America of today—great cities (with slums and problems), great highways where death strikes quickly, & . mechanized civilization at once awe-inspiring and terrible and challenging. It’s along here that the picture achieves an effect-of blur and confusion in keeping with the times—probably because the scenarists haven't yet had time to untangle and dramatiss, with meaning, the weird fantastic present. There is talk that “Land of Liberty” some day will be avall- able to schools and colleges on 16 mm. film. If so, parents are urged to go along with juniors for a look. It's an inspiring movie
