LITTLE THEATER—“Nana.” “Nana, the Prench picturization of Emile Zola’s famous novel of the theat- rical underworld in Paris, will be pre- sented for the first time in Washington at the Little Theater, beginning Friday. “Nana” was intended a to a realistic depiction of the life of a courtesan who had chosen the stage for her debut in the demi-world. It was first, published as a novel in the Pari- sian dally, La Voltaire, and aroused strong moral protest. ‘The film was directed by Jean Renofr, son of the disnn;uhhod,!{'ench impres- sionist painter, and it is claimed to have been produced on the screen with rever- ence and fidelity to the original, Livi members of Zola's famlly, it is said, aided in eparation of the film in their old’ cludes back: the pr . | manuscript and the supervision of many “The Strange Case of Capt.

NATIONAL—"“A Connecticut Yankee.” “A Connecticut Yankee" is announced for one week at the National Theater, beginning Sunday night, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. This attrac- tion was seen in this city last season , and created a most favorable impres- sion. A book more readily adaptable to musical comedy than Mark Twain's “A Connecticut Yankee” would be difficult ‘to find. With its chief ingredients al- most made to order, and far removed from the usual wishy-washy love theme, the Fields-Rodgers and Hart version is a feast of fun and music. Some liber- ties have been taken with the original book, such as modernizing the phrasing and the injection of familiar slang and “wisecracks,” but in the main the plot and very humorous situations are pre- sented. The settings are a delight in colorful costuming and the palace scene, with its traditional grandeur and pomp | of olden days. The contrast is furthered by the fac- tory setting, which brings the present- day inventions to a status of usefulness, in a day far before their time. The ¥ music is canny and fresh, and the dancing numbers have the advantage of unusual ingenuity. Impersonating the brassy American, Richard Lane manages, like a good Yankee, to maintain the illusion of constant invention. Mary Adams Is & winsome Sandy. the Yankee's Arthurian damsel. Support is rendered by Nana Bryant, Paul Everton, George E. Mack, Gordon Burby, Bert Saunders, Starke Patterson, Helen Gates, Francilla Waterbury, Olive Bertram and a chorus | of young men and women Who put snap and originality in the various numbers. GAYETY—"Burlesque Review.” “Burlesque Review” is announced as the attraction booked at the Gayety \Theater next week. Reports state it is replete with fun, jazzy singing and snappy dancing and in its latest scenic «and costume effects. Its two biggest scenes, better designated as parody skits, are “An American Rookie in France” and “The Play's the Thing," both said to be filled with laugh epi- sodes. Harry “Pep” Pearce and Madlyn Beatty are the leaders in all the revels, supported by Eddie Simms, Frank Kramer, Herbert Harris, Chet Kniffin, Nelle Cason, Evelyn Burke, Charlotte Rae and the usual beauty chorus. EARLE—“Hearts in Exile” Dolores Costello in “Hearts in Exile’ will appear for the first time in the role of a Russian peasant girl at the Earle Theater next week, beginning | with the Friday midnight performance 4 11:30 p.m. & D Ih Exile” is an exciting story of love and heartbreak, laid among the peasantry of Moscow and the great icy wastes of the Siberian prison camps. “Hearts in Exile” also shows what strides the Vitaphone has made since | the advent of talking pictures. The sound effects are said to be perfect—the ‘howling of the wind in the desolate, icy country, the babble of the fish peddlers along the water front of Moscow, and the gay aingmgt and music of the johemian peasants. B'rhe little Russian girl who is torn between marrying her peasant lover or the grand nobleman, Baron Palma, marries the baron and a situation re- sults_that reaches a dramatic climax in the dreary setting of Siberia. Grant Withers is the star's leading ¢ man. Other members of the cast in- clude James Kirkwood, George Fawcett, David Torrence, Olive Tell, Tom Dugan, Jilliam Irving and Rose Dione. FOX— “No Defense.” Monte Blue and May McAvoy, co- starred in the screen attraction “No Defense,” will be seen at the Fox The- ater Saturday. This Warner Bros. Vitaphone produc- tion is a story of the development of & railroad in the West, the love that springs up between an Eastern girl and the Western engineer, and how that Jove withstands the ridicule of the girl's Eastern friends when the engineer jour- neys to her home.

Norma Trevor, Mary Doran and George Lewis, comes to the Rialto for a week's engagement starting Sat urday. “Tonight at Twelve” is a dialogue | screen adaptation of Owen Davis’ stage play that made Broadway gasp a few | seasons ago. It is a breath-taking story | of husbands and wives, who skated on thin ice as cheaters in love. It does not, however, verge into vulgarity or | overstep the bounds of decency, accord- ing to the management. It is said to be adroitly handled and the bright and snappy dialogue of the play has been retained in the picture.

But Lee thinks Jerry is Wally's sweetheart and falls for her himself—even her gold-digging, practiced on him, only delights him, His lawyer surrenders to the charm of another gold digger. But that is enough of the plot. Much of the comedy dialogue has been retained in the titles by the adapter in its entirety. COLUMBIA—“The Dance of Life.” “The Dance of Life” will continue for a second week at Loew's Columbia, where it has been attracting the movie- going public to a great degree. picture is an adaptation of the sen. sational stage play “Burlesque” and was produced by Paramount as a talking, singing and dancing production. Hal Skelly of the original stage role retains the same characterization, that of Skid Johnson, in the picture version. Nancy lC;\'mu plays opposite as the leading ady. Skid and the girl meet in a deserted railroad station and both apply for a job with a burlesque troupe. The girl predicts Skid will land on Broadway some day, and with her guidance he seems headed that way. She finally marries him and a short while later In the mad rush of success he forgets his wife and she resolves to marry the wealthy man who has been showering her with atten- tion, but at the last moment she re- ceives a wire from her old manager asking her aid. She gives up her plans and goes East to get Skid in shape to bring. Do not delay.

SORENSEN IN PROTEST OF CUSTOMS PRACTICE Ford Manager Objects to “Meticu- lousness” of Baggage Inspec- tion on New York Pier. By the Associated Press, NEW YORK, September 25.—Chavles E. Sorensen, general manager of the Ford Motor Co., arrived Monday night froi the liner Vulcanic and Mr. and Mrs. Sorenson, who made an inspection tour of the Ford interests in England, Ireland, France, Germany and Russia, stood by while an inspector ex- be | amined their nine pleces of baggage and checked everything carefully with the itemized declaration. “You can say this for me,” Sorensen sald: “I have been in almost every country in Europe and never have I experienced such tyran as this on the pler. I have declared everything I have, but telling them I have declared everything as f-ha. open each plece makes them all mere suspicious. These men will trust nobody.” Beveral Ford Motor executives gath- ered around the inspector. To one of them he said: “We treat 'em all alike—rich or poor.” Mr. Sorensen announced that his negotiations with Soviet officials for the construction of a8 huge Ford plant near Nishni, Novgorod, were successful and that construction would begin shortly. He said business conditions were favor- able abroad. present prices but it certainly is soft picking*for the mam who wants to build. -Experts say that,lumber will never be socheap again.
