AMUSEMENTS. Tolstoy Story Is Vehicle For Anna Sten, a New Star “Resurrection,” as "We Seems to Be Dominated by Frederic March. “The Painted Veil," Held Over. Garbo, in BY E. de S. [ version of Tolstoy’s “Resurrectio: Miss Sten is both beautiful and good. And she is bad only when the script calls for her to be. Yet for all Miss Sten’s ability, and for all Frederic March's worth (it's probably his picture at that) and for | Rouben Mamoulian’s careful direction, and for Mr. Newman's musical score, Nina Koshetz singing, and that mid- | night Easter service which was done with the greatest care, “We Live Again” seems to us to lack that defi- | nite spark., that definite emotional surge which you expect with such a story as “Resurrection.” Mr. Mamoulian chops up his scenes 50 often, slides his camera from rich to poor and back again with such speed, that before you can begin to| accumulate either smiles or tears, you | are off on another tangent | It is this speed, and perhaps his interest in details, that makes the film not quite so good as it should have been—or rather, as you expected it | would be. The struggle between the | classes which so preyved on Tolstoy's mind is certainly no longer a novelty, | apd the audience is bound to be more | interested in the human reactions and the love affair between the peasant girl and the prince than in the long tirades against social injustice. Whatever else the film does, it gives Freddie March one of the best roles of his career and one in which he | outdoes himself. His later scenes are especially noteworthy, particularly at that moment when he is making up | his mind to go to Siberia and the past | comes back at him in magnificent | retrospect. However bad we may have | thought Mr. March in “The Barretts | of Wimpole Street” (and we were in | the minority with this opinion), so justly opposite do we think him in “We Live Again.” Mr. March and Miss Sten and occa- sional flashes of Mamoulian genius make this a film which you will prob- ably want to see. You know the| story—it is long and it is dreary. But it has its moments. The only thing ' T IS now pretty generally admitted that Sam Goldwyn made no mistake when he took it upon himself to teach Anna Sten English. You will find that Miss Sten takes her rightful place in the cinema sun in “We Live Again,” the 1934 Goldwyn Live Again." However, MELCHER. n,” now playing at Loew’s Fox. i you won’t do is to bawl out loud the | way perhaps you had expected. * Kk ok ok ERDE GROFE (pronounced Gro- fay) and his orchestra, assisted by a smooth and attractive songbird, Betty Barthelle, head the Fox stage show this week. Mr. Grofe is the; man who wrote that “Grand Canyon Suite,” which you've heard Maj. | Bowes play on his Sunday programs, and which is an interesting and vital | bit of American music. Mr. Grofe plays “On the Trail,” from fit, as also the “Mardi Gras” movement from his “Mississippi Suite.,” which comes as splendid finale to the bill Other acts this week include Grace Dufaye. an amazingly agile dancer, | plus Eddie Stuart, and Dot, Don and | Teddy; the TFunnyboners, popular radio celebrities, whose antics are| happily received by the audience, and | Joe Phillips and Madeline Kileen, | occasional comedians. 4 Phil Lampkin's overture, dedicated | to “Love,” is his best — for reasons ! which Mr. Lampkin probably knows better than any one else. * X K % ARBO remains at the Palace in | “The Painted Veil,” a film of | goings-on in those tropics which no- body knows so well as Somerset| Maugham. This may not be Miss: Garbo’s best picture, but youll find that in its early stages she is a new and devastating person—the peer of all lady sirens of the screen. While the story breaks in half and runs its course more or less downhill after its | bursting up. it is well worth seeing just | for its early career, and for Miss Gar- | bo’s smile, which is the best available George Brent and Herbert Marshall are excellent foils. When Garbo hasn't | got one. she has the other—which should make the film better than it is. Troupers Glimpses of Stage Folk in Washington. HEN Eddie Peabody check- ed out of the Navy at a California port some years ago. he was 19 years old | and a gob of five years | service. He promptly galloped ashore to celebrate, met the girl who was to | become his wife, and borrowed $15 | from her to make a down payment on a banjo. Up to that time he had been a fid- dler and entertainer, a naive young- ster whose acquaintance with the vio- | lin began so early in life that he| carved the word “Eddie” across the | back of his first instrument, knowing few fiddle facts and the significance of | wood texture. From an ordinary sea- | man, Eddie rose to the rank of quar- termaster in the Submarine Corps. He served under Comdr. Charles Lock- | wood, U. S. N., a genial salt who used | to make the boy serve double watch now and then to finger sweet melo- | dies for him Day after tomorrow Comdr. Lock- | wood and his former underling are to | have a reunion, a prospect which seems to excite the now famous ban- Jjoist beyond measure. At a cocktail party in a certain local hotel, the two will meet again to swap reminiscences | and laugh over the vagaries of fate. Eddie says, “I don't know what he thinks of me, but I know he is one of the finest men I ever knew.” This sort of hearty sentimentality seems to be a part of the young man who made his debut in an uninter- ested world at Reading, Mass., in 1902. He is a great joiner, belonging to all imaginable lodges and clubs and royal | orders of this and that. That not uncommon American trait does not, however, overshadow the positive evi- dence of musical genius, his unflag- ging interest in new orchestrations, ar- rangements, effects, treatment of the instruments on which he performs. Incidentally he is said to have a nod- ding acquaintance with 29 different type of musical gadgets. His spe- cialties are the rhythm instru- ments, but he has delved into all manner of others. A few novel combina- tions are credited to his inventive cerabellum, from which one might expect to emerge a joint bass drum and <&rnet, or whatever bizarre and effective nov- elty you choose. One of the bet- | ter curiosities in the Peabody repe- | toire is the harp-guitar, whence he can | derive the music of a complete string | orchestra. He carries this one around with him, along with the original, knife-indented fiddle, two fancy ban- | joes which weigh 27 pounds each and | are worth $1,000 of the family fortune. | He also now has a rare violin, worth | twice as much as the plink-plink boxes. | If you've never seen Dr. Peabody | chasing gloom from the theater, bet- | ter get a look at him down at the Earle | this week. He counts on this as his last immediate vaudeville engagement, | intending thereafter to go on the road with his own orchestra. He promises the banjo, drums, piano and base sec- tion will be perfect, and they make dancing. R.H. P, Jr. FRATERNITY IS PRAISED Wilkinson Tells Session of High Democratic Character. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 1.—Cecil J. Wilkinson. Washington, D. C. | chairman of the National Interfra- zernity Conference, addressing its | opening session yesterday, said that the | college fraternity “is the nearest ap- proach to democratic self-government found on the campus.” Sixty-six national college fraterni- ties are represented at the meeting, which is concerned with changes in rushing systems, particularly in re- spect to “hell week,” the costliness of fraternity membership and the com- petition of professional fraternities, Wilkinson said that college authori- ties handicap themselves if they do not avail themselves of the college fraternity as a means of developing democratic instincts and socialized ITALIAN PLAYERS AT BELASCO THEATER Tomorrow Evening's Entertain- ment Includes Well Known Opera Singers. “Addio Giovinezza,” the Italian Dramatic Club play which will be | presented at the Belasco Theater to- morrow night, will have as leading lady Miss Tosca Fattorini, together with an army of well-known amateur players among the Italians of Wash- ington. The Italian Dramatic Club, spon- soring this night at the Belasco as a charity affair to aid destitute Italian families of Washington over the Christmas hol:days, has secured the | personal appearance of Nicolo Cosen- tino, tenor oi radio and opera fame, who immediately after the play will offer a program of well-known operni favorites. Iris Mazzarini, soprano, who made her debut at La Scala of Milan in | “Elisir d’Amore,” will be in Wash- | ington, coming directly from Boston | for the occasion, Fred Colaprico, the manager of the players, informs, and | she will be featured in a program ofl opera “arias” during intermissions.

By the Associated Press. GCLDEN, Colo, December 1— Human noses change shape to fit the climate, Dr. E. B. Renaud of Denver University told scientists gathered here yesterday for the eighth annual ses- sion of the Colorado-Wyoming Acad- emy of Science. Dr. Renaud said the African Ne- gro's nose is broad and flat, with large intake and exhaust openings, or nos- trils, because hot air is “thinner” | than cold air and more must be| breathed to get enough oxygen People of cold climates have long, narrow noses, which take in smaller quantities of air and preheat it before it reaches the lungs, Dr. Renaud ex- plained. here and When Current Theater Attractions and Time of Showing.

Cagney’s Newest Picture [s Entertainment High Spot This Time Jimmy Is a Truck Driver and He| Also Turns Out to Be a First-Class Comedian—Earle Pert James Cagney is the hero of “The St. Louis Kid,~ at Warner Bros. Earle this week. A year ago that fact was, in our humble opinion, nothing to get excited about. This week it is approximately the best news amusement seekers will hear, for the tough boy of the Warner lot has be- come a real comedian and as en- | chanting a mug as you will meet bowl- ing 2 truck along the highways or cuddling his beer at the rear table in Mike's. “The St. Louis Kid" is swift of pace and thick with gags. It has warmth of characterization, a timely plot and a beautiful heroine, and is altogether a rather brilliant piece of trivial enter- We cannot think of any- thing else around the town so per- fectly calculated to lighten the Stygian gloom of a cloudy afternoon. Eddie Kennedy and his pal Buck | Willetts, a dumb, earnest young man with a quarrelsome nature and a glass jaw, were engaged in the aggressive profession of truck-driving. Possessed of the traditional pugnacity of five- tonner pilots, they passed most of their off time in jail and squandered a | tidy portion of the weekly pay check in paying the fines and costs of simple assault During the course of one interstate journey their truck was rammed (if you can believe this one) by a fair lassie in a model-T flivver. Right wroth was she with them and her anger led to much diversion for the spectators thereafter. You need not hear all the details to be reassured that there followed a murder, of which sprightly Eddie was accused, a kid- naping of the heroine, a rescue and all the fine old melodramatic trap- pings which are both venerable and freshly treated in this film. Director Ray Enright did himself proud in supplying a wealth of inventive twists to enliven every moment which might, by basic familiarity, have been stale. He also worked with a splendid sup- porf®ng cast, including Allen Jenkins, as the numb-skull Buck; Patricia Ellis, whose blond beauty is worthy of | actual talking picture has ever been will be read and studied eagerly by t! your attention, and Robert Barrat, Stage Bill Is Good.

He is and he does, earning an emperor's ovation at the show we witnessed yes- | terday. | The Earle program also includes a newsreel and all that. R. B.

MERRICK, OLLYWOOD, Calif., December 1 (N.AN.A.).—Gene Fowler's | script of “The Mighty Barnum” will undoubtedly be one of the best sellers of the year. 3 This is the first time a full length scenario for an gublished in book form and it Hobart Cavanaugh and others in lesser | have good motion picture stories to tell, but lack the technical roles. Probably you will suspect there has been an attack of acute optimism somewhere when you are urged to believe that the Earle also has this week one of the best vaudeville bills we have seen in weeks. Topped by that skilled and effervescent banjoist, Eddie Peabody, the program is round- ed out by a picturesque and restrained adagio-acrobatic act called the Harris Twins and Loretta; the incredibly facile mental wizardry of Harry Kahne, who, himself is worth head- lining on any stage, and a better than average Italian dialect act titled Harry Burns and Co., the company consisting of Virginia Sully, Helen Lockwood and Tony de Luca.

[ | "And remember that plenty of | Hollywood's most famous scenarists have never sold any stories or plays. You don’t need to be an established writer if you have ideas and know how to put them down. If you happen to have ideas plus writing ability, like Mr. Fowler, that's all right, too! 3 We're glad to know that seeing Fred Astaire dance gives other people the ! idea that perhaps they could learn to tap out a routine with nonchalance, too! Since his arrival at R-K-O Radio studio, Astaire has had the place in somewhat of a frenzy, what Wwith every one from secretaries to pro- duction heads trying the simple rudi- ments of the tap dance. Most frank, among those who hope to get the hang of it, is Katharine Hepburn, who spends most of her spare time joining in the work of the chorus now ' rehearsing for Miss Hepburn, of course, can't take time to change into dancing togs, so she wanders in wearing the gypsy dress and red wig that are part of her costuming for “The Little Min- ister.” The other day Pred Astaire and Richard Dix sneaked in to watch her working, with the idea that they might disconcert her a bit when she saw them. But they didn't. “I know,” said the famous Kather- ine, looking up, “I must look as if I had two left feet. But Il get it.” Richard Boleslavski, who has been interviewing extras with a view to finding types to be used in the House of Commons scenes in “Clive of In- dia,” doesn't anticipate any trouble ‘whatever in duplicating any famous people that he may need. “It's been ' my experience,” he says, “that in Hollywood it is not only pos- sible but comparatively easy to find the double of most of the famous dead and celebrated living. “And I can prove it by referring to the Central Casting Bureau, where George Washingtons may be hired for $750 a day; Abraham Lincolns for $10 a day (the extra pay because they demand real whiskers for Lincoln); and Napoleons for anywhere from $7.50 to $25 a day. This latter de- down in scenario form. pends on whether the little general has to speak or not.” Which rather takes the edge off our | historical ideals! Some one of the “Bengal Lancers” set asked one Abdul Hassan, who plays the part of a cavalryman in the film, what he thought about the fighting scenes in which he had just taken part. “Not enough sun-strokes,” was the unexpected answer. around as a great joke until Hassan heard about it and explained himself. “More heroes drop from the sun than from bullets,” he told the gang. “There are ‘sun-stroke stations’ every half mile in the Khyber Pass.” So in the completed version of the film you'll probably see Paramount’s finest stagger and bite the dust every now and then. All for the sake of art, of course.

While it is im- bued with a commendable intent to dramatize the earthy origins of the rye in that great national institution, ham-on-rye, less pretentious and more realistic stories have often been told of the seed that springeth into crops {and the man behind the plow. | Mr. Vidor wrote, directed and pro- duced a tale of a group of depression derelicts who cast their lot together in the fertile agricultural area of the Middle West, swapping a stone- mason’s skill for the shoemaker's art, living without money, tilling their fields with man power. Composed Ichlefly of lower middle class artisans whose wobbly aptitude for survival had made them easy prey to hard times, this community constituted a combination of the theorist'’s heaven and the property lover's hell. The army of misfits chose fot their leader a stalwart young man named John, espoused to an equivocally named lass, Mary. These were vir- tually the only young people in the shanty town, but so earnest were from the soil enraptured them even as kicking the gong around might have enchanted a more sophisticated couple. When the bedraggled - hopefuls of planned economy were _threatened with disaster because they lacked cash pending a harvest, among them was revealed a noble convict who sacri- ficed himself to the law in order that his friends of the fields might col- lect a reward upon his head and with the cash buy groceries. In contrast to this sentimental deed. a city-brazen blond called Sally drifted into the community and employed her wiles in the seduction of farmer John and the general disruption of local morale Had there not been a terrible drought on the land at the time the citizens might have been sufficiently busy to overlook Sally’s evil ways. In their idleness and brooding over the blast- ing sun, however, they resented her, they sneered at John and altogether lost heart. Needless to say, John escaped the fatal spell in time to contrive a hand- some 1irrigation scheme, and his fol- lowers joined him in one of the oddest ditch-digging projects ever accom- plished by the hand of man.
