MELCHER “The Lion Man” Causes Comment at Earle. USTER CRABBE, swimmer extraordinary, and a gentle- man with perfect chest and waist measurements, is to- day’s hero in the local pic- ture world. At an early hour this morning Thirteenth street was filled with a large and breathless assort- j ment of ladies all anxiously await- ing their turn to see what the Lion Man Jooks like, and they made sprinters look like loafers as they roared down the long aisles of the Earle Theater. Although Mr. Crabbe has spent his young years cultivat- ing sports and ozone, although he has never languished be- fore the grease- Buster Crabbe. E‘L’Lfi edb?n" o al tin- sel and costuming behind the foot- lights, he suddenly becomes an ob- Ject of extreme celluloid excitement and this because—after scouring the land for “the perfect man" he emerges as that particular gentleman who is a Peer among his confreres and epual in prestige to that lovely lady who each season rises from Atlantic City waves as the most glorious sprite in the world, All of this should disturb Mr. Johnny Weismuller, who a_season 2go was chief Tarzan. When he appeared locally in person and kicked up his heels in a swimming tank no larger than Miss Colbert’s tub in “Sign of the Cross,” the flapper element crowed with excite- ment and said to themselves that this was “the supreme man” In spite of the fact that they never W.H.

CHILDREN'S SHOP Second Floor. launched into conversation with him, he seemed to them a genius of unexampled strength, and one who didn't have to do more than give a Jjungle yowl to make them bow and sigh and do handsprings at his feet. Now suddenly, Paramount, after doing a similar'stunt to find “the ither woman"—we have to admit a-feeling that she was a washout —drags another young man out of the water and plants last season's Welsmuller crown on his head. The result would seem to indi- cate that Hollywood has gone ani- mal, jungle and whatnot crazy. If you examine recent and current pic- tures you will find that one theater is presenting a film in which lions are the feature; that another is get- ting ready to present the largest anthropoid in " existence (Signor lsnz Kong); that last week those tWo lunatics, Wheeler and Wolsey, did a few jungle tricks in a film, Wwhich, incidentally, was an insult to anybody’s intelligence and a dis- grace to its producers, and that in the future Hollywood is preparing to get together a whole serics of Tar- zans, While the jungle is a nice, neat place for entertainment, while it is Pleasant to watch beasts jumping around from twig to twig and bould- er to boulder, and gentleman Tar- zans, who defy the cold with pocket- kerchief attire, are all right in their place, it has occurred to us that heroines” these days are mnot get- ting their dues and that few films are paying any attention to them. % It is a long time since any female discovery” has been made. But for the Panther Lady, who flared up only briefly, the season has been curiously dry of the kind of lady, who, for instance, might fill Thir- teenth street with gentlemen the way Mr. Crabbe shanghaied the ladies this am. But for the advent of Helen Hayes to the screen (one w‘ ».mOSQS &? SORS TON, D. C, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 19 of our nearly perfect actresses) the ladies have not been given the spot- light in the manner of Weismuller and Tarzans. Now that we have not only one but two perfectly good Tarzans it is time that we had our Tarzanna. Don't, however, let the film com- panies fool you into believing that just because you have had a ‘test” made you will be elevated into a glorious immortality. Note — that when they do this scouring business for “talent” and when they plaster the walls with advertisements (as they did with “the lion man”)— that when the time comes for cast- ing they usually go no farther afield than their own back yard. What, we would like to know, has hap- pened to recent “finds” who have gone to Hollywood? Watch for some of those painful “shorts” that “fill out” a bill and you will see one or two of them. They usually stand in the background and smile in one of those Morton Downey song things. That's fame for you—and then a ticket home. Drama Guild Presents Battleship Comedy. 'HE Drama Guild surprised both its friends and itself last night by reaching the peak of its acting season in a nice, naughty little Eng- lish comedy, “The Middle Watch,” which was presented at the Ward- man Park Theater. More addicted to somber robes of the drama, the Guild for once relaxed and came down to earth with a sudden and a pleasant thud. A diverting comedy, rich with inconsequential lines, the Guild played as it never had played before. With new faces, an excel- lent set (this should be noted par- ticularly) and a cast which scemed exceedingly free from moss, the play should be set down as the Guild's best and one which may be viewed as an example cf swift, in- teliigent and amusing playing. Last night's high marks among the actors seemed to this observer as follows: Funniest, Thomas Cahill (his toe work was splendid); pret- tiest, Polly Foote; the star, A. Bethine Coe: most restrained, Maurice Jarvis; handsomest, J. Joseph O'Donell; most professional, F Street at 11th “TAILLEUR MAID” Red Black W hite Navy Dawn Blue Headsizes 21Y to 23 ® The Pancake Pouch © Convenient Lift-Clasp “Quilted” Kid-Patent New Bag with Pleating Double Faced Mirrors Powder Puff and Other Handy New Fittings Calf . . .

Gunston Hall Gives “The Blue Bird” Today. THE Junior School of Gunston Hall will present five scenes from “The Blue Bird,” in the assembly hall of the school at 1906 Florida avenue, this evening at 5 o'clock. A toy symphony orchestra, composed of the kindergarten and first and sec- . ond grades, will render the opening selections.

A Dinette, Console or Davenport Table, Etc.—Grand for Homes Where the Dining and Living Rooms Are Combined in One COMBINATION TABLE @ In 1932, a special at $19.75 @ In 1933, a special at $16.50 @ Now, for a limited time, only $11.95 (Mail and Phone Orders Filled While Quantity Lasts) So many of these tables have been sold by us, that the manufacturer has given us a limited number at a greatly reduced price. We are passing that reduction on to our customers. This butterfly, drop-leaf table is much nicer than the ordinary dinette table because the top is solid wood —in maple, walnut or mahogany. It is 36x48 inches when open (seats 4 to 6 persons), and when closed makes a grand console or general util- ity table. A nice size drawer in.one end. We suggest that you use Wind- sor chairs with this table, because they also are equally suited to living and dining room. Moses guaranteed construction throughout. Furniture may be bought here on our deferred payment plan. W. B. Moses & Soms F at 11th Nat’l 3770
