It must be admitted that the com- | bined forces have produced a tense drama all the more remarkable because it is presented by but two people—and what a pair they are! Fay Bainter, who needs no introduction to Washing- ton, finds in this sordid story of a man and a woman who first appear on their wedding night, after a questionable re- lationship that preceded the marriage, a veritable rocket to carry her to the moon of high dramatic triumph. Her new-made husband immediately begins to unfold his jealousy of hcrl rdian as well as of another with whom she has probably had question- able transactions, but not unknown to >r husband. A missing photograph of tne latter and a costly emerald ring vanished from her finger which she has told her husband was the sole gift of | her father to her dead mother, but| which eventually proves to be a gift | from her guardian to celebrate her establishment in business, into whicii she has gone to furnish the means to| enable her husbana to rise to the artistic | heights she thinks he will attain, if left unhampered, are among the reasons for | the husband’s jealcusy, which manifests itself more and more harshly as the play progresses, until the climax when it appears that, maddened by torturing thoughts and suspicions, he finds his way into the guardian's apartment. strangles him and gets away withoul | detection. The arrest of another man | for the murder stings him into a con- | fession cver the telephone to the police, and when they take him away the crushed and semi-deiirious wife, totter- ing amid the ruins of her much-hoped- for happiness, is promising that in his trial she will tell the whole truth nndi nothing but the truth, that he may be enabled to come back to her. In high artistry Miss Bainter runs the whole gamut of the emoticns with in- comparable discretion and skill. Her work alone compensates for the sordid- ness of the story, the painful frankness of the dialogue at times, that suggests box office consideration, and any other deficiency that might be suggested in the entertainment. She is accorded fine support in her exacting and tryjng ordeal by Melvyn Douglas, whose per- formance might be improved, perhaps, with less strenuousness in the earlier stages of the story. Be that as it may, however, the pair fairly held the audi- ence spellbound from the rising of the first curtain until the close of the play. Whatever comment may be induced by the character of the story, there is no question that the performance as a gnm:m: success is thoroughly estab- ished. A word as to the antecedents of the upon the same material that entered into_the photoplay, “Jealousy,” which late Jeanne Eagels as the wife.

H. L. PR POLI'S and _irresistible clowns, ers, and Crackers” having as supporting fea- tures an excellent mur of musical e chorus and a number of tuneful songs, San Harris' production of “Animal nce, filling every « chair, chuckled and rocked and gyffawed itself collecticn of entertainment-seekers as the season has brought out thus far. Groucho, Harpo, Chico and Zeppo, but the routine of the chorus and the Ma settings and the songs all contributed in go:d measure. Cullough and Jimmie Durante, the Marx Brothers share an idiom of absolute without rhyme or reason, but they yield priority of foolishness tognone. Taking even the lowly pun, Grcucho weaves It‘ into a pattern of farce which, blended idiocy. Rapid, merciless, inspired as seems his banter, it is not a thing of ad libbing last night, moments when he stepped out of character and in- along: you could see then how the man worked, feeling out his audience sical trickery, much more in the genre of the pantaloon than Grouchs, & “grimacier” where Groucho is econom- | ical of facial capers. Yet, to recall the robbery scene, staged in utter dark- ness, one remembers that Harpo, unseen and speechless, convulses with the mere suggestion of his presence, the wild clatter of iron tools, a dozen insignia of his drollery. Chico, in Italian style, has his own restrained, mcre dignified, if one can remotely conceive of dignity in con- nection with these Marxes. His role is more that of the “feeder,” though in such skits as the travesty bridge game and the same dark robbery scene he reveals an individualism which is not submerged in, if subservient to, the numskullery of the other two. there is a plot to “Animal Crackers," Kaufman and Morris Ryskind. It con- cerns the theft of a valuable painting at a house party, a mere peg upon which to hang the fancy and gay hocus-pocus of the whole doings. Included among those who contribute to phere of the party, the commissicn and solution of the theft, are Margaret Du- mont, Margaret Irving, Elinore Hunt, Charles Baron, Louis Sorin, Neil Col- lins, Dorothy FitzGibbon, Marjory May Martyn, Julian Winter and Arthur Lip- son, all entered splendidly in the feel- ing of the piece and are valuable to its success. Zeppo, the fourth of the Marxes, has a small role as Jamison, but to Groucho and Harpo and Chico, with their madcap sense of nonsense, go the medallions. F. O. GAYETY “Social Maids" i Recommended by all the chief ingredients of a good burlesque show, “Social Maids,” led by a dancing star billed as “Miss Personal- ity,” opened at the Gayety yesterday. The young woman who sails so surely and so effectively under the personality title is Minnie Pitzgerald, her talents much renowned around the Mutual cir- cuit, but new to Washington. With & flair for dance and song, she set the time of “Social Maids” and eniirely won the opening audiences. Miss Fitzgerald is not alone well known on the current .ist of players. In “Social Maids” are such other com- petent performers as Ethel Spears, a soubrette; - Arthur Rampe, eccenwric comedian; Ben Plerce, straight man and Dot Fuller, alluring and capable. Plus, as always, the chorus. “Socfal Maids” is among the best of the Gayety's shows this season. F.O. e Some day somebody is RIALTO going to write, and the “Big News” Movies™ will no doubt show, a real newspaper play. The prediction is based on the generally accepted theory that right will triumph in the end. But to date no such play has appeared. “Big News,™ is merely additional evidence that it has not appeared. “Big News” adopts the currently pop- ular idea that a modern newspaper office is a madhouse, and that news- per reporters and their superiors are either drunken roughnecks or maniacs. ‘Working on this assumption, the result- ing picture is not a bad movie, but it is a poor newspaper story. as well to call to the attention of movie directors and movie audiences the fact that newspaper work is a hard task- master, exacting and precise in its de- mands, and that while there are hectic moments in the history of every city roopr, sobriety and cool judgment play as important a part in getting out a newspaper as in any other of life's more leisurely callings. “Big New: like other newspaper plays, overlooks these points entirely. Such plays compare newspaper men to dope addicts who can't shake the=habit off and try to drown their troubles in drink. The result is a farcical parody that, like any well done parody, has enough truth in it to be entertaining. ‘The Rialto play is a movie version of George Brooks’ play, “For Two Cents.” Robert Armstrong is cast in the leading role of the drunken newspaper reporter who, fired for drunkenness and other crimes, goes out to seek revenge upon his erstwhile employer by digging up an amazing expose of a dope ring. If more reporters who get discharged would seek this particular form of revenge more of them would be discharged, for the story that this particular reporter dug up was without doubt a pippin. A slight complication is added when the editor of the paper, with the dope-ring expose on his desk and about to go into print, is mysteriously murdered. The reporter is apparently caught with the goods, but he gets a lucky break by producing the record of the boss’ dic- tograph, which was turned on and for- tunately running at the time of the crime, thus exposing the real criminal and glorifying said reporter. Arm- strong does a capable piece of work, and Carol Lombard performs adequately in the feminine role opposite him. play may not be amiss. 'It is based Washington has already seen, with the lasco offering is a fair challenge of the finitely superior in everything save iis optic equipment of the audience that is Dominated by those antic “Animal the Marx Broth comedy principals, & supple and comely rackers” o at Poli’s last evening. into complete sympathy, as amused a Honors, quite naturally, went to kert-Peterson dancers, the costumes, the With such jesters‘as Clark and Mc- madness. an extravagance of persifiage the most illogical discous imaginable, with witty delivery, makes it supreme | automatic flow.

L METROPOLITAN § 8 Ven 'he Greene Murder Case” ‘talking my thriller, “The Greene Murder Case." swooped into mystery-consclous Washington yesterday with an assort- ment of murders, shrieks and crimi- nologists that would seem to make cer- tain local murder cases appear quite insignificant, in comparison. ‘As one of those who emerged, gasp-| ing, from the Metropolitan remarked yesterday _afternoon, “If only Philo Vance could give us a hand in some of our own strangling mysteries!” The management of the Metroplitan could not have selected a more strategic time to spring this excellent film version of Van Dine's “best seller.” The book itself is said to produce goose flesh on ths lover of detective tales. Its audible picturization certainly had the customers holding to chair handles at the initial performances. There are laughs to relieve the tension, and the most appreciated of these suggested by the remark of the bungling detective sergeant that if he only could locate & certain revolver used in killing om bers of the Greene family he woul ready to pronounce the deaths suicide and resign from the force. There is no foundation for the report that this priceless line was inscrted in the dialogue as a bit of local color especially for Washingtog audiences. It wouldn't be fair to Mr. Vance, greatest of all super-sleuths, to divulge here just what all the shooting, sleuth- ing and shushing is about in the for- bidding Greene mansion, or to give away the criminologist’s crime-detection methods. Suffice it to say that Mr. Vance takes the laurels right away from the police department and the district attorney’s office and express the whole- sale murder in very startling fashion. William Powell, as Mr. Vance, scores a disiiact hit, repeating the success he attained in a similar role in the “Canary Murder Case,” a previous Van Dine thriller. He is efficiently sup- ported by a convincing cast. includin, Jean Arthur, Florence Eldridge, Ullricl Haupt and Eugene Pallette.

Again.” is based on that of Octavus Roy Cohen, and purports to tell how these prime favorites of the American people in the amusement fleld cam: together. Just how much of it is true, end how much fiction must be left to the wishes of the ingividual = spectator. Certainly the avérage auditor will get a good ldea of what goes on behind the stage. Among the many films based on stage life, easily the leader in_the “talkie output, this Paramount offering is not one of the least. We are presented with the solemn, short George Moran staking his last four bucks in a crooked deal in a pool- room, and the advent of the large, easy-talking Charlie Mack, who re- into partnership. The career of the two “boys” is built up much as it must have taken place—although noth- ing is introduced about those phono- graph records—until finally Moran and Mack, and the real audience at the own, doing their stuff before a picture audience. Right here is the best shot of “Why Bring That Up?” The au- dience in the film titters at Moran and Mack, pnd the real auditnce at the Columiia titters back, titter for titter. This surely leaves the real Moran and Mack “sitting pretty,” with two au- diences to laugh at everything they do. Perhaps no entertainers in world's history ever had things stacked better for them. The action of the pictures shows Moran falling for a vamp who attempts to work the old badger game. Mack sees through it, and out. of the compli- cations develops a sobby bit wherein Moran goes to ths hospital to attempt to revive the unconscious Mack out of a coma with some of the old-time “early-bird” chatter. The power of the unconscious mind is amazing, for Mack immediately comes out of it. and Moran gives up his bad girl. “Well, well, well.” The bill includ-s & Mexican singing and dancing act in color, Frances White in three songs and a Metroton: ceel. C. R R-R40 KEITH:S L sh s k nit little “Street Girl” story of four jazz troubadours, guided to the realiza- cleverness and loyalty of a ragamuffin beauty whom they had befriended, “Street Girl,” the first talkie production of the Radio-Keith-Orpheum combine, is presented in its s2cond week at R-K-O Keith's to continued capacity patronage. Based on melody, comic interlude and the personality of iis players, “Street Girl” employs the talents of Betty Compson, Jack Oakie, Joseph Caw- thorn, Ned Sparks and Johnny Harron to depict the musical unit, which struggles from a $100-a-week engage- ment at a beef and beans cafe to the featured spot on the Club Joyzelle's glittering program. A tale of Tin Pan Alley all over again, but saved from repetitive pitfalls by a sturdy simple- ity of plot. TFhere are momen's, to be sure, which strain the spectator's cre- dulity, but they are so nicely spliced into the march of plausible incident that one forgives them. That a prince- ling should forfeit his pretensions to a throne because he kisses the brow of a cigarette girl in an American cafe is scarcely to be credited, but, taking it for cincma logic, one admits that it was a singularly inviting brow ‘and a thoroughly well-bred prince, and ac- cepts the whole thing as part of the picture’s mood. ‘The music of “Sireet Girl.” those “specially composed” themes which too often stamp the talkies as a half-bree; of drama and operetta, are here inter= polated with excellent taste, well fitted to the grace and tempo of the work. “Lovable and Sweet,” for instance; "My Dream Memory,” and the “Broken-up Tune” have an integrity of their own, appropriately rendered. A trailer on “Rio Rita,” which comes to R-K-O Keith's next week, gives a foretaste of pleasant fire and romance. Bebe Daniels, this brief excerpt im- plies, is to be done a service by “Rio Rita” similar to that rendered Miss Compson by “Street Girl,” to wit, to be lifted cne rung upward on the talkies’ none-too-easy ladder. A comedy based on Fontaine Fox’s group of comic-strip youngsters is too reminiscent of “Our Gang,” less ebullient, more sophisti- cated; youth palpably under orders.

Clff Ed- wards, Phyllis Crane, Max Davidson and Polly Moran bolster the piece with comedy touches and add not a little to the movement. And now we know where the high school firls and boys of Washington spend their Sunday evenings. Action pictures of -the ing high school foot ball teams, Eastern, Western, Cen- tral, Business, Tech, et al, are in- cluded in the newsreels, and from the cheering last night one judged himself to be on the sidelines after a touch- down. The songs Babs sings in “So This Is College” will be heard in many high school homes before the week ys out, never fear. Al Evans contributes a notable achievement in a musical trial that pins ' guilt on one of his players for killing “Sonny Boy.” Teamed with a picture slower and less entertaining than “So This Is College,” the stage presenta- tion, “Shanghai Jesters,” doubtless would enjoy a better reception. Even s0, Seed and Austin, comedians, and the Williams sisters, who were among the first “hot songsters,” get a big hand. Others who contribute to the | revue are Electa Havel, mezzo-soprano.
