. v a POLI'S—"The Student Prince.” Sigmund Romberg's operetta, after delighting virtually every other large city east of the Mississippi, opened last night at Poli's Theater and lived. even in the smallest detail, up to its reputation for vocal and visual beauty. Music of the kind scarce graces the prologue to finale. 10 be popular, enormously popular, it does not have to be jazz. The “Sere- nade,” “Deep in My Heart.” the drink ing song of the students of the famous iversity, “Golden Days” and other pieces familiar to Washington through the medium of the phonograph, seem even more alluring against the back- ground provided for them in the pro- duction of “The Student Prince.” Good volces are necessary to the pro. duction. thing else. it would seem from its marked success, is. The com pany that is playing here is adequ Iy equipped vocally. Among the solo ists of splendid talent is George Mor. zan, who, as Dr. Engel, the prince’s tutor and guide, sings “Golden Days,” ome of the melodious masterpieces of the production. Leonard Ceiley. the prince, is equipped with a tenor voice and a physique fully adequate to his role. He is at his best in “Deep in My Heart” and the “Serenade Song.” Medelein Collins sings the role of *’Kathie,” the waitress, who captivates and wins the heart of the prince while he is a student Then there is the students’ chorus. with its worthily popular stein song, 16 mention but one of many.

This chestnut pudding was baked in the same oven as “Abfe’s Irish Rose.” but the ingredients contained in the ction, which is billed as the “sea- omedy hit” contalning songs.” must have subcellars below those * in the Anne Nichols hit. Cooked in the great American melt- ng pot. with an apparent aim to smooth down ruffled racialisms, ““Kosh- er Kitty Kel E comes up to the possibilities of the theme that folks can be friends regardless of the Jand of their family’s origin. It hurts in spots—one of these is the &pectacle of two mothers, prototvpes of a sturdy class of Irish and Jewish Americans, respectively, who get maudlin drunk. The characterization of Rosie Fein- baum, by Beatrice Allen, stands out above others as sincere and genuinely vmpathetic. Robert Leonard is cred- able as Moses Ginsburg. But when that’s sald all has been said. Music, 1es and play smack of mediocrity, deplorable mediocrity. already vish and Kosher Kitty Kelley KEITH'S—Willard Mack in “Kick In.” A dearth of adjectives will surely result if all the turns on Keith's pro- gram this week are given the praise they merit. The bill probably is one of ‘the strongest ever presented at this popular p! house. Willard Mack. in his playlet “Kick In." has been allotted top-line honors, and from the way his offering was re ceived by the large audience, he cer- tainly deserves it. Nearly two decades ago Mack presented this tabloid dra- matic classic and it scored so strongly that it was made into a fouract play and renamed “Blackbirds.” With Jack Barrymore and Jane Cowl in the lead- ing parts, it created a sensation. It was, in fact, the birth of ‘“crook’ plays. Mr Mack and his company received at least a dozen curtain calls last night for their efforts. That popular palr of vocalists and funsters, George Whiting and Sadie Burt, have a bright new act_entitled Several Song Scenes and Dances,” with the clever dancer Virginia Mae assisting. Each song has a grotesque futurist back scene and Whiting and Burt's costumes are screams. But Miss Mae doesn’t worry about clothes. And then “Sadie” recites, bringing the act to a close in a tumult. The lights are lowered and the show stop- ped for at least 10 minutes, as a bar 1o futher applause. The Four Camerons, among best of the fun makers, also stopped the show Yor a time. Louis Cameron is an orig- inal comedian, and “Pa” Cameron almost works himself to death with his dancing and ludicrous tumbles and flops. A trio of players from other acts helps out with the encores A special musical feature was of- fered by Margaret Romaine, the well known soprano, who drops out of grand opera for vaudeville. ing a couple of classics, Miss Romaine lections from three prominent musical comedies and demonstrated how easily it is for a real singer to It also proves that | for | s at the Be- | | make a so-called musical-comedy star | look like a bush-leaguer. Gordon’s comedy canines open program, and are followed by Sargent and Lewis in songs. Pepito, the Span- ish clown, scored well on account of his cleverness and originality. And “Parisian Art,” a series of beautiful yostures by shapely women, closes the big bill. the EARLE—“Lord Jim Supported by a fine cast, including Snirley Mason and Noah Beery, Per Marmont makes an effective show- ing in “Lord Jim,” a story of the vSouth Sea and its islands, written by Joseph Conrad, and shown in film sorm at the Karle this week. This story is claimed to be the best writ- ten by this noted writer. It cerns an aspiring aman, who, under the comr crooked captain, is disgraced. rich South Seu wler, who ofie zive him a ch in spite of disgrace, and who sends him (o small Malay island manager of his trading post there. In all, the story makes a thrilling and enjoyable photoplay. A delightful bl s to his a ckface act is offered hy Rudy Willing and Ollie Debrow 40 “Fun in Darktown.” The Orphan Comedy Four are mirth-provoking in songs and witty savings Although the dancing in the “To; town Revue” is anything but new, it i« made to appear novel by the way in which it is offered. The dancing zirls are both pretty and clever. An enjoyable performance is presented b) Ricknell, who seems to have time “Modeling in i Jane Smith, “A Littie Stepper.’” an complice” of Dick Lucke and his \dians, is the_principal attraction thelr act. Snappy_syncopation is featured. The dancing of Marle Veateh's “Chicago Steppers” is a bit smarred by lack of teamwork on the part of the dancers. Ar n STRAND—Billy Taylor. usical comedy tabloid, “Mysti- cism,” artistically staged and gor- zeously costumed, is the entertaining )ittle piece that tops the current bill aut the Strand this week. Billy Taylor, late comedian of hina Rose,” assisted by Miss Billle ‘Faylor, Irene Hayden and the Van J e Sisters, compose the cast. Billy has no difficulty in tickling the Tistbilities, and the girls sing and dance admirably. Their execution of 1he Charleston is one of the gems of the show. Harry Vale and Don Crane show merit in “Seintillating Songs.” When You hear them you will recall the “Record Boys” of the radio. Other numbers include l.ou lLockett and Peggy Page. in “Say It While Danc- A v-{ con- | | $50,000 After do- | ed | ings. la girl stolen from her parents in in- | ! of a mannequin, | series of articles on “Sexless Justice,” and Polly and Oz in by William K. cene Hongs' Wells, and the audi ce is glven considerable laughter by the action and songs of Selma | Braatz and company in a juggling act called “In a Class of Her Own.” The photoplay is a thrilling dra- matic picture, entitled “North Star," featuring Strongheart the wonder | dog.

Tt | was made by some of the survivors of the famous “Lost Battalion,” and those | who profess to know concede its au- | thentieity and its effectiveness. | | CENTRAL—"“The Fighting Edge.” | A mystery-thriller of the Mexican horder—smugglers, se ice men, ceric hide-outs, v unequal | lattles and other ingredients of exeit- | ing pastime, are on view at Crandall’s Central Theater the first two days of th week in “The Fighting kdge,” a Warner Brothers' “classic of the screen,” featuring Patsy Ruth Miller and Kenneth Harlan, with Pat Harti- an, David “Red and Heinte Conklin, the comedian, | cast as cook. | Almost single-handed, Senor Don | Juan De Dios O'Rourke, combining the langourous love of romance of his Spanish mother and the fighting Irish temperament of his father, routs a band of thugs, saves the girl and re stores her father to her ar Hal Roach’s studio sends Back Yard,” a tworeel riot, for the juvenile pranks of “Our Gang.” Other short reels complete the program. Your Own METROPOLITAN—"Bluebeard’s Seven Wives.” An amusing satire upon the m: ng of movie stars scores this week at| | the Metropolitan, where “Bluebeard's | Seven Wives” make it hot for their “shefk husband,” Don Juan Hartez, who, off-stage and outside the pub- spotlight, is just plain John Hart, an ex-bank teller, with a single love and a double stutter, The methods used by the typical movie director and a quick-witted pub- licity agent in making a star over- night are presumably revealed in side- splitting scenes. The movie-men en- jov a huge joke on themselves throughout the story and, needless to say, they have put the idea across with a bang. “Bluebeard's Seven Wives" is one of the most entertaining photoplays that | have been featured in Washington in many moons. Lois Wilson as M-M- Mary K-K-Kelly, Blanche Sweet &s herself and Ben Lyon as the “dash- ing Don Juan,” whose tendency is to dash into M-M-Mary's arms at every opportunity, are finely sup- ported by Sam Hardy, as the irre- pressible press agent, and a cast of notables. The climax of the piece shows Don Juan in his greatest success, “Purple Passions,” which is a “film version of William Shakespeare's ‘Romeo and Juliet,” although by the time the “great director” has finished with Bill's original, one would never guess its source! A “publicity wedding,” staged after the opening performance, very nearly | wrecks Don Juan's real romance, but happily he finds his sweetheart in time to explain the situation and to prove his “dashing spirit” by dashing off to a country parson’s with her to have the knot tied, while distracted direc- tors and fans scour the country for. the missing sheik. A Christy comedy featuring Billy Dooley, a Fox news film and an or- chestral program of jazz, including Irving Berlin's “Always,” complete the bill—and it is a bill of real joy. COLUMBIA—“Mannequin.” The watchful among photoplay fans have been looking forward with in- | terest to the coming of Fannie Hurst" prize story ‘‘Mannequin, which is the feature at Loew’s Colum- bia Theater this week.
