With a commanding figure, a ready tongue and an overflowing supply of humor, they are likely to be rated as examples for the rest of the world. ‘Within the limitations of the screen, Victor McLaglen, in “A Devil With Women,” at the Fox, pre sents a charac- ter which has all the most desirable quali- ties for a bois- terous but satis- {ying entertain- ment. As a cap- tain in the mili- tary forces of & South American country, he does so many fool- hardy things with success that his fame spreads over the land and rival factions bid for his services. ‘While the play would give this ,magnetic personality a place of Dorllllril,y in love affaiis, it is nct- able that the fighting captain sur- renders to the rivalry of a less pic- turesque person at the conclusion of the plot and it is to be concluded that his most effective acts give evi- dence that he is particularly “a devil with men.” Associated with Mr, McLaglen in this attractive holiday offering is 8 cast consisting of Robert Edeson, Mona Maris, Humphrey Bogart, Luana Alcaniz, Michael Vavitch, Mrs. Jiminez and Mona Rico. One of the added features of the program is the elaborate filming of the cruise of Mr. and Mrs. Gifford | Pinchot to the South Seas.

C. “The Naughty Flirt” Is Not in Such Good Taste, ITH the benevolence of the holiday season in the air, “one must be kind,” as Beatrice Lillie would say. “to Aunty Jessie.” And so any word about any new film must necessarily be jolly. In the case of “The Naughty Flirt,” the Metropolitan’s latest cinema acquisition, this isn't so easy. Made up of a theme long since draped with mourning even in the pulpiest of the pulp magazines, its virtues are so well concealed that what remains is a skeleton of the most obvious pattern. The film is in no way helped by the “star,” Alice White, whose method of histrionics prompt her to twist her mouth into curious inex- pressivenesses for 4ll the emotions on the calendar.’ In. moments of coyness, of which there are say 600 at a guess, she pouts, in moments of anger she pouts, and when she is in the throes of love and happiness she pouts. Otherwise she is blonde and good-looking when —as in a song of yore—the light is behind her. To follow the path of this story would take about as long as following all green arrows in the Grand Central station. Miss White is meant to be a daughter of the rich, who sends engraved invitations for “in- formal” teas, who never lets more than 30 minutes go by before she makes a man kiss her, and who decides on matrimony at all hours of the day and night with an assort- ed collection of would-be husbands. The eventual climax is so pre- posierous that one can't help but think that the sponsors were in a hurry to gel the thing over with. Furthermore, the inhabitants of Cedarhurst, Long Island, should be properly indignant at having their supposed “social” life served up in this manner. Added items on the program in- clude Graham McNamee in a good newsreel talk, “shorts” and a Bert Roach comedy that is worse than the main picture. E. de 8.

BY ROBERT MACK. Momentarily squelched by _official action, the Columbia Broadcasting System bobs up as a formidable factor in the television race being waged be- hind the scenes for first honors in the inauguration of practical visual radio. A fortnight ago things looked gloomy for the network’s television plans, when Examiner Elmer W. Pratt recommended to the Radio Commission that its appli- cation for an experimental television station in New York be denied. But the commission over-rode the adverse recommendation and Columbia today holds its first experimental television permit, determined to inject competition into the development of the visual art, just as it has in network broadcasting. The National Broadcasting Co. and its affiliated companies hold a half-dozen experimental tzlevision permits. Plan Chain Broadcasting. Elaborate plans looking toward the introduction of chain television, like chain broadcasting of today, have been charted by Columbia, according to its president, Willlam S. Paley. The net- work immediately will b-gin its attack upon this baffling fourth dimension of radio, in which encouraging strides now are being made. The network's trans- mitter, to be of 500 watts power, will be in operation early in 1931, Mr. Paley said today that by bringing the competitive energy and engineering resources of Columbia into television de- velopment, he hoped to hasten the transition of the art from its present experimental stage to actual service to the public. He emphasized that tele- vision is experimental and that it is un- likely that the public will get television “in the form they expect it for some time to come.” Tests to Be Made Daily. Parts of each day will be devoted to televising artists as they broadcast,” he said, “so that those within range of the signals may see and hear the programs, thus enhancing development. The broadcasting of the picture of the artist will not be on a commercial basis, but will be aimed to develop the technique of picking up such pictures through proper placement of artists and to ex- plore the entertainment capabilities of the artists. “Of course we are looking forward to the day when television images may be transmitted from New York to other cities by wire, just as network broad- casting programs are carried now. This will require a great deal of research to develop a wire capable of carrying the wide range of frequencies and to narrow the present 100-kilceycle band for tele- vision so that more channels will be made available for additional television stations.” (Copyright, 1930. by the Consolidated Press.)

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, December 20.—The State has failed to prove vagrancy against Jack Guzik, wealthy gambling house | proprietor, described by police as “the business manager for Al Capone.” Prosecutors who sought to send him to jall as a vagrant lost their case in less than two hours after they had laced the question in the hands of a ury in Judge Edgar Jonas' Municipal Court, but they said thev were not discouraged in the fight against “public enemies.” Case Centers on Gambling. Guzik, already under conviction for an income tax fraud, and described as not only a “public enemy,” but as the “watchdog for Al Capone's treasury,” w as_happy. “That's fine,” he told the jurors over and over again. “I knew you gentle- men would see it. I'm a business man. I thank you.” Much of the argument in the case centered around the xlmbiinfil business. The defense contention was that rearly every one <ambled. Retaliating, the prosecution replied there was nothing wrong about wagering small sums at race tracks, but that Guzik represented a cifferent type of gambling—houses that offered roulette and other games. Extradition Fight Fails. ‘The State also contended Guzik might be considered a vagrant despite |all of his money, arguing tMat a man’s | mode of living determined the question. The defcnse, however, pictured him as a “credit to the community” and pointed to his pretentious home—less than a block away from the residence of State's Atiorney Swanson, While Guzik was winning his cas Danny Stanton, another “public eaemy,’ was losing his fight to prevent his extra- dition to Wisconsin for trial on a charge of slaying Jack Zuta, reputed Chicago vice lord. Stanton and his bodyguard, Edgar Smith, lost a habeas corpus ac- tion before Judge Philip J. Finnegan to prevent their removal to Wisconsin, HOOVER GREETING SENT TO DISABLED VETERANS ‘Assures Ex-Soldiers of “Nation’s i Grateful Remembrance of Your Service and Sacrifices.” All disabled veterans were sent a | Christmas greeting yesterday by Presi- | dent Hoover which bore “assurances of !the Nation's grateful remembrance of yyour service and sacrifices.” The message read: “To all disabled veterans: ' “Again I send you my Christmas ! greetings and best wishes for your hap- piness in the New Year, with renewed | assurances of the Nation's grateful re- ;‘mmbrsnce of your service and sacri- ices. . “I do pray that the New Year will bring you many blessings and new hope for the future; to those in hos- pitals, or ill in their homes, restoration of health, and to all, more of comfort and contentment. “The Nation is ever mindful of your patience and fortitude, is vigilant in | your behalf. and so long as your need jendures will spond with devotion to your service.
