Burton Holmes, one of the most popular lecturers’ on theé American stage on the subject of travels, and generally considered an authority on the “wanderlust,” addressed an inter- ested audience at the National The- ;tslr last night on “Motoring Through taly.” Mr. Holmes can always be counted upon to describe unique features in every subject such as are not touched upon by the majority of lecturers. In this instance, he did not dwell upon the obvious and well known spots in Italy, although they were far from neglected. In additlon to the pic- tures of Vesuvius and the beautiful Bay of Naples, renowned in song and story, he showed quaint scenes of a motor trip taken golng northward from Naples, Including picturesque hill cities such as Perugia, San Gimig- nano and Assisl. Thero were inter- esting bits about the customs of old pageants and pictures of the tomb of Dante, that greatest of Itallan poets. Also_colorful bits about the life in the famous citles such as Pompell, Sorrento and Amalfi, not to mention Rome itself, were shown. Every side of Italian life of the present and some of the manners of the past were set forth, even includ- ing a emall sketch of Mussolini by Mr. Holmes, which aroused much en- thusiasm and applause from the audi- ence. Good Bill at Strand. Bob La Salle, a former star in Zieg- feld’s “Mlidnight Frolic Lillian Faulkner and "her marionettes and Master Gabriel and Company, in a musical fantasy in three scenes, are outstanding numbers of the Strand Theater bill for this week. Assisted at the plano by Murray Rubens, La Salle offers songs and dances 'in “big show” style, which, attempted by the less experienced, might not be 5o good. He knows how to work the comedy feature in, and the applause that followed him off the stage was evidence that he was enjoyed. The Faulkner marionettes present nothing new, but are entertaining expressive little face, particularly his great dark eyes, mirror every motion with a clarity that many of the older screen folk fail ever to secure. Te 18 no need here to repeat the plot of the story, written by Mary Roberts Rinehart, for it is well known and was discussed in detail in these columns last week. It is an {deal vehicls for Jackie and the other characters of the story are well portrayed by capable actors and ao- tresses. Tully Marshall particularly, 13 the sick oid king, is excellent. The photography is splendid and hie settings, with the gorgeous cos- tumes of a small country's royalty and near-royalty. are falr to look pon. “The Common Law." :“The Common Law,” a Screen ver- sion of Robert W. Chambers’ novel, together with a Bobby Vernon com- edy and Pathe News, is being shown At Crandall's Ambassador the first part of this week. In the feature picture roles are played by a number of noted screen stars, including Corinne Griffith, Con- way Tearle, Elliott Dexter, Hobart Bosworth, Miss Du Pont, Dorls May, Harry Myers, Wally Van, Dagmar Godowsky, Bryant Washburn and Phyllis Haver. 'he story concerns a girl who, to earn a living, hires hersclf as a model to a wealthy artist, who falls in love with her. The man's parents object, but after many complications the lcouple are married with the blessing of the parents. The settings are elaborate, and the street soenes de- ploting New York on Now Year's eve are interesting. The Ambassador Or- chestra contributes a musical pro- gram. “The Common Law” is heing shown also at Crandall's Metropolitan this week. “Wife in Name Only." “Wife in Name Only,” the story of & woman seeking vengeance 18 por- trayed on the screen at Crand: 5 the first part of this week, with Mary Thurman_in the leading role. The from beginning to end, and seem to have the same effect on the audlience that the ventriloquist does, although the tators know that there's nothing “real” about it. In the act good dance and base ball scenes are staged. The tiny star of “Buster Brown" and “Little Nemo,” Master Gabriel, in his travesty, “Captain Kiddo,” is en- tertaining, even if not a phenomenon. He is sald to have returned to this country from an extensive tour of England and France, and upon com- pletion of his appearance here will start a world tour. Redford and Madden open the vaudeville with a clean-cut juggling act, followed by Goldle and Beattie, in a revue of popular vivacious melodies. The photoplay, “The Wild Party,” starring Gladys Walton, is good, and on the surface {s highly amusing. In making the plcture, however, Uni- versal dld not go into newspaper office detall, apparently, or at least into a Ybig” newspaper office. Per- haps the production was designed as a “slap” at “vellow journalism,” which breaks into the plot—in fact, is the whole picture. “Wild Bill Hickok.™ Willlam S. Hart, after an absence of two years from pictures, returned to the screen at Loew's Palace wes- terday to thrill and delight capacity houses with a splendid picturization of the historic character Wild Bill Hickok.” Hart has changed. Hoe fs the same | he-man {n the big out of doors of the west, he has the same ac- cessorles of 'guns and fights, but he | has developed a brand of action, none the less brave and bold. but far more | subtie and full of delicacies than the | “Bill Hart” of old. He throws his arms on high, with | two big pistols, after the fashion of | the great old scouts, whose life is| portrayed faithfully in many of its experfences; he flashes a quick and wicked gun, but there is more to this new picture of “Wild Bill Hickok" than a wild west story. It s full of interesting and plcturesque back- ground of the old days of the middle west. Research work shows results in minutest details of setting and cos- tume, even to an old train of the anclent vintage when the Santa Fe terminal was in lowa. The romantic thread of the story is deftly woven into the wild fabric of the adventuresome hero's pioneer life. His friendship and paternal devotion to Calamity Jane, a girl orphaned by the Indians, is pictured with real character, while the love he bore for { the beautiful blonde wife of another { develops a story and action of big- hearted yet fearless honesty, which winds up the picture with an unsus- ! pected surprise. [ This picture is well worth seelng, not only for its historic background, but for the new “Bill" Hart. everal fine fite 'he Daredevil,” plunging his audience into lively laughter. Pathe News pictures, Top- ics of the Day and a sympathetic musical background round out a thoroughly worth-while program. “Tiger Rose.” The Canadian Rockies are now hav- ing & turn in subject and location for motion picture plays. Shipwreck, the wild west, Wall street and desert sub- jects have each enjoyed a run of ma- terial for film plots and stories, each picturesque in its own particular style, and now the snow-capped mountains of the Canadian north- west are being used as background and setting for the unfolding of ro- mantic tales with which to entertain the American public. “Tiger Rose,” David Belasco's stage success, is the latest of these “travel- ogue” dramas to come to Washington, and it is difficult to determine whioh is the more enjoyable, the beautiful scenery or the story. Taken sepa- rately, each is delightful; taken to- other, the combination is perfect or an’ evening’s entertainment. Lenore Ulric, star of the Belasco production, is also star of the War- ner Brothers' flim version of “Tiger Rose 18 the untamed daughter of a French Canadian whose death has left her alone.

Following the expected approval tomorrow, the plans for the reorgan- izatlon will be submitted to the cred- Itors and the District Supreme Court, the court having been petitioned sev- eral months ago by Casualty for a receivership.

It is understood that a general sur- vey of conditions at Casualty will be made shortly, upon which will be based complete plans for reorganiza- tion. For the time being the airs of the hospital will be conducted as they have been during the past few months. A statement {ssued by the receivers h"'.lo'l":" its president, , has indicated its willing- ness to become responsible for the llabllitles of the Casualty Hospital and also for its reorganization, “Subject to the approval of the creditors of the Casualty Hospltal and the court the officers of Emer- gency Hospital with the friendly co- operation of the board of directors of Casualty will undertake the re- organization of that board, and it is understood that a number of mem- bers of the Emergency Hospltal board will be elected to the board of the Casualty Hospital. Work Is Valuable. “The action of the Emergency Hospital was prompted by a realiza- tion that the Casualty Hospital has been and is doing a valuable work and that it would be nothing short of a public calumity to have it closed. It was thought by Mr. Blair and | others of the Emergency Hospital board that the Bmergency and Casualty hospitals, being so eimilar | in the character of their work, cnuldl be operated more eflolently and economically under a unified control. | “The recelvers of the Casually, Hospital are hearty in their expres- | slon of appreciation for the public spirited attitude of the board of di rectors of Emergenoy and bellove that thelr action provides the best| possible eolution of the difficulty under which the Casualty Hospital | has labored. | To Conduct Fund Campaign. “The Emergenoy Hospital plans soon to conduct a campalgn for funds | with which to construct a nurses’ home and other needed improvements, | furniture We are ‘10X 1923. and also provide for the needed ad- ditions to the Casualty Hospital.
