The story is an adaptation of Gene Markey’s novel, “Stepping High,” a heart-interest tale of Broadway hoofers that doesn’t ignore the tear while it inveigles the laughter. Much of the action takes place in & song-and-dance cabaret, affording opportunity for Fred | to Waring’s Pennsylvanians to jazz nine melodious numbers. There are also muncblyl l;‘umbem by the Melody songs lorton Downey, Dor- othy Lee and Genia Zielenska, the fa- mous coloratura, with Barbara Bennett, daughter of the distinguished actor, Richard Bennett, and once dancing partner of the celebrated Maurice, and Bobby Watson In the dialogu of the picture.

Mary Dugan is a chorus beauty on trial for the murder of her “sugar daddy.” Edgar Rice. Testimony is brought forward to prove that her nightrobe was bloodstained and that her fingerprints were on the knife with which the murder was committed. Her attorney is interrupted in the case by the arrival of her brother, a young law- yer, whom she has sent through college. | He is dissatisfied with the manner in | ‘Which the case is being conducted, and | he becomes his sister's counsel. He puts his sister on the stand, and is| horrified to learn that she took large sums of money from various men to help educate him. Coming as a_bomb- shell at the last minute, the brother develops testimony to show that his sister’s defense lawyer was in reality the lover of the slain man's widow. ‘Through clever tricks of courtroom ! strategy Jimmy manages to reveal the me;n nthlhs real murderer. The case e jury, and they brin Verdict of “not gailty.” e .On_the stage Herbert Rawlinson, ‘Hollywood’s Ambassador of Joy,” will head the pretentious presentation.

COLUMBIA—"The Letter.” Jeanne Eagels in “The Letter” a Paramount talking® picture, will open Saturday at Loew's Columbia. O. P. Heggie has an important supporting part in the production. The picture is an adaptation of a story by W. Somerset Maugham, author of “Rain,” and the story concerns Les- lie Crosbie and her husband, who live on a rubber plantation near Singapore. Robert, the husband, goes on a busi- ness trip, and Leslie immediately sends a letter to Geofirey Hammond, a bach- elor, who at that moment is involved in an affair with a Chinese woman. Hammond goes to her bungalow and Leslie kills him. In court she tells how Hammond, drinking, attempted to force his attention on her and that she killed him ‘in self-defense, and she is ac- quitted. The same evening her lawyer, Joyce, discovers that the Chinese woman has a letter that would prove Leslie guilty. Joyce buys the letter from her for his friend’s sake. Later that evening, while they are celebrating the acquittal, Robert insists on paying the costs of the trial. Joyce tells him that it cost $10,000, and when Robert demands to know why Joyce gives him the letter. Leslie then tells Robert she has never loved him in all their 10 years of married life, but that she loved Hammond. Robert, however, loves her, and they continue as conventional mar- ried folk. News, the Fox Movietone News, short subjects and the Columbia Orchestra under Claude Burrows will complete the program. FOX—“One Stolen Night” ‘The first talking picture to have the circus as its background will be seen at the Fox next week. It is Warner Bros.' latest Vitaphone picture, “One Stolen Nj " starring Betty Bronson and William Collier, jr.

In the cast are Mitchell Lewis, Charles Hill Mailes, Harry Todd, Otto Lederer, Rose Dione, Nina Quar- ters, Jack Santora, Angelo Rossitto and Harry Schultz. On the stage will be a colorful stage plcture with many entertaining stars.

Colleen Moore plays the stellar role. ‘The story of this comedy-drama is of the type that first carried Miss Moore to popularity, but the plot is said to be original and the characterizations of the up-to-date variety.
