The audience knew what expect of Gable in the adventu ing role of an American news- paperman in Russia, his first out-) and-out comedy since “It Hab. pened One Night,” and he didn let them down. It was Miss L marr, however, who was no less than a’ sepsation in ,a new type of role for her, a Moscow Tady street car “motorman.” There are| no half way measures about Miss | |Lamarr’s transformation, and she| {is a definite hit as a uumedlennv} |sharing Gable’s daredevil “esca-| pades. She has two slam-bangz| fights, one with Gable, operates a | | street car, drives a tank, and| | gives animated performance | good for a thousand laughs.

Bros,' film,“South of Suez,” had its first local show- ing. An intriguing tale of greed and jealousy, the picture has as its locale the hot, dangerous South | African diamond mines. George Brent, in the starring role, gives a dynamic performance as a mine foreman who can meet tropical heat, murder, and theft without losing this head. His cool- ness is lost when he meets lovely Brenda Marshall and falls deeply in love with her. Brenda Keeps the list of her first-rate perform- ances up to date with her portray- a] of a girl who sets out to prove that her lover has been framed with the murder of her father. George Tobias, the man who hag never had the same type of soreen role, comes through with | still another great characterization |in the part of a ruthless, greedy (and jealous mine owner, His wifz, realistically portrayed by Lee Pat- rick, married him only for his ,money and is openly contemptuous |.of him. Her anger knows no bounds |when she becomes madly in love | with Brent, who insists on ignor- |ing her advances, James Stephen- |son and Eric Blore give fine por- |trayals in the supporting roles and |lend to the film a fitting atmos- | bhere of tenar LIEF ERICKSON " CELEBRATION IS ' PLANNED OCT. 11 At their first meeting following the summer recess, members of the Sons of Norway planned a | public dance as the annual cele- bration of Lief Erickson.
