'ROMANTIC FILM IS PLAYING NOW AS-CAPITOL HIT Hedy Lamarr and Robert Taylor in “Lady of The Tropics” An adventurous ing with the romance teem- drama of life and love under the overhead sun is to be seen in “Lady of the Tropies,” playing now at the Capitol Thea- tre. Two of filmdom's most glam- orous stars, Robert Taylor and tha eagerly-awaited Hedy Lamarr, mak- ing her second motion picture ap- pearance, play the lovers in the dramatic story ¥ i action revolves around the love of Bill Carey, a penniless playbo, for Manon, whom ne meets in Saigon, Indo-China. They married, despite the warnings friends that the inscrutable East | is strongly in Manon's veins. Then | Bill finds it impossible to get a passport for his wife to leave the country. For Pierre Delaroch, an influential half-caste, is ,himse!f/ in love with Manon and exerts his | powers to keep her in the country. Reduced to abject poverty, Bill's fruitless search for work is ended when he obtains a job on a rubber plantation through the machina- tions of Delaroch. But this is only a ruse on the later’s part to try to reach Manon. This is discovered by Bill, but to give away the con- clusion of the picture would be to forestall the pleasure of seeing onec of the greatest climaxes of the sound screen, tions the first three days next week The Thursday following will be commencement day for the four sen- iors who will graduate.

Technicolor production which Is| now at the Coliseum. | Dealing with the most turbulent era of the old west, it is a pro- duction of a scope and authentici that may well make it remembered | as a milestone in motion picture history, The story picks up Errol| Flynn when he has become the trail boss of an outfit driving a huge herd of Texas longhorn stee:s up along the Chisholm Trail to Dodge City, the little town in south- western Kansas that had become the largest cattle shipping center in the west after the Santa Fe Railway had been extended to! what had merely been a drinking| and carousing center for the sol- diers from nearby military post Fort Dodge. In the screen play, written by Robert Buckner, events are con- trived to get Fiynn to accept the | post of sheriff of the wicked town | where the six-shooter wus the Hnalr arbiter of all arguments. He sets| about cleaning up the town, and| this he finally succeeds in doing.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, May 6.—For today's embarrassing pre- dicament I nominate Republic studios and the gentlemen con- cerned with a movie entitled “Doctors Don’t Tell.” They bought the magazine story, and then they started to film it. It is about a refuge doctor (Charles Coburn) and his pretty daughter (Sigrid Gurie) who come to America and find themselves wanted in the Dust Bowl. Sigrid finds herself wanted, in time, the handsome farmer (John Wayne), and romance flourishes ‘Well, the thing is getting along famously. There's only one drawback, As the story progresses, it bears less and less re- semblance to the story which inspired it. The title has no bear- ing whatever, which ordinarily doesn't bother anybody around the picture business. However, they like the title. They want to keep it. And what are they going to do about it? “We're going to work the title in—-somehow, somewhere—before the picture’s finished,” they’ll tell you. That reminds me of this studio’s epic of last year, which began as “Wagons Westward.” That's a good title, but they didn't want one that sounded lke just another western. They made it “Man of Conquest”—and now, if you look over the production sheet, you'll see “Wagons Westward" listed. 'It's another story and another cast. by 1 found the master DeMille in a genial mood on the set ™Etls the receptiom charaing hestesse: -.zl‘ thoug™ful guest: pring gifts of deliciows van Duyn Candies.

As one of the earliest members of the Madeleine Carroll- for-Queen club, I think a protest is in order. Here is that blonde beauty in a picture again (it's DeMille's) with unfair competition. She can stand it, but here she is playing a well- bred, gentle role in a movie that has Paulette Goddard flashing around as a wildcat half-breed. It's like putting Venus de Milo on a set with Lupe Velez. You may admire Venus, but Lupe wouldn't let you watch anybody else. And then there was “My Son, My Son!” Madeleine was nice and beautiful in a part that required her to be nice apd beautiful, while two actors—Hayward and, Ahe¢rng—unchivalrously acted themselves into the major share of “W ‘e Madelei for-Queen members haven't read the DeMille S0 we dm know that Madeleine is to be just a beautéous backdrop, but'if that’s how it is, we’ll be ready with our scalping knives.
