DeMILLE'S “The Sign of | the Cross,” a vivid picture of pagan Rome, will open a popular price run for the first time Friday at Warner Bros. Metropolitan Theater. The film | is a “spectacie” on a large scale. It is a spectacle of pagan Rome, reaching COSTLIER TOBACCO MELCHER its fullest expression in a Roman holi- | day at the Circus Maximus, where the gladiatorial contésts and all the brutal games that delighted Nero serve as a prelude to the sacrifice of the Chris- tians to the lons.

Fay Wray plays the role of the 1933 girl who gets mixed up in all this, and Robert Armstrong and Bruce Cabot portray the two adventurers who seek to get a motion picture of the legend- ary ape. This adventure is from an idea conceived and executed by Merian C. Cooper, with the story by Mr. Cooper and Edgar Wallace. The pic- | ture was directed by Ernest B. Schoed- sack and Mr. Cooper. “Cohens and Kellys” Confing to the Rialto.
