_B-12 23 wonxi AMUSEMENTS. &% wfl THE EVENING STA'R WASHINGTON D. C., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1934, — The East and West Rema1n| Just as Far Apart as Ever And “Ll.mcl'lou!e Blues‘“ at thc Earle. Proposes I to Verify Old-Time Statement to That Effect. SCCO!‘I& Week O{ BY E. de S. HE East and the West are "Collcde Rhythm." MELCHER. not allowed to meet in “Lime- house Blues,” the new Paramount film that opened yes- terday at the Earle. George Raft is the East and Jean Parker is the West and everything is fine until a gentleman whose eyes are open (in contrast to the Raft shutterlike orbs) ! looks upon the little White Flower. Whereupon the little White : Flower discovers love popping in at her window and dreams of the East popping out. It's the old, old theme of the| broken-hearted Oriental falling in love with a young girl who is fond of him only in a great big Girl Scout way. But it is made bearable by the oily Mr. Raft, Anna May Wong as the sinister Chinese who loves him more than she should, and one or two others with horsehair mustachios who make splendid background. Who- | ever, had the brilliant idea of casting docile Miss Parker as a fiery pick- pocket of Limehouse must have since gone off on a long, long trip. We can think of no one in Hollywood who is so totally unsuited to the role. Since, however, Miss Parker is an up and coming young actress who | can tackle any assignment with a fair degree of success, the result of her Limehouse ramblings are not so delirious as you might suspect. She is, nevertheless, much more pleasant when she falls in love with that dog- fancier, Kent Taylor (this, by the way, is a new occupation for a “hero”) than she is when she is lolling around Limehouse, gloomily fog-bound. The return of Miss Wong to the | screen is an event of importance— | made less important, unfortunately, by the role to which she has been assigned. One of the really better actresses of any hemisphere, Miss Wong is given only a few stilted moment of love, hate, passion and what-have-you, and makes her bitter exit (she stabs herself) almost com- | pletely in the dark. In spite of this, that and the other | there is something eerie enough and exciting enough about “Limehouse Nights” to give average patron an | average kick. And when Mr. Taylor goes up in that elevator, supposedly | to his doom, the lady next to us yes- terday let out such a yell as must | have been heard even in Hollywood | by Mr. Raft—for whom, no doubt, it was intended. In Local M HE COMING OF THE] KING,” a cantata by Dud- | ley Buck, will be presented | by the choir and church school of the National City | Christian Church, under the direction | of Prof. Augustine H. Smith, director | of the department of church and | community music, Boston University, | who has dramatized the cantata. He | will be assisted by Willlam E. Braith- waite, director of the choir, and the | Rev. J. Raymond Mills, minister of | religious education. The cantata will be presented twice Sunday, December 23, at 4:30 o'clock and 8 o'clock, at the National City Christian Church on Thomas Circle. The soloists will be Mrs. B. D. Shreve, soprano; Helen Turley, con- tralto; Mrs. Leo Tooley, alto; A. V.| Llufrio and Leo Tooley, tenors; A. M. Peterson, baritone, and George Stone- braker, bass. Lyman McCrary, will assist as organist. Mrs. J. B. Crosby will play the role of the madonna and Edgar Graham is representing King Herod. “The Magi” will be portrayed by Robert Martin, Ted Fretter and Everett Dix. 6 The many friends of Louis Thomp- son will be glad to know that he is slowly recovering from a long illness of pneumonia. It is hoped that Mr. ‘Thompson will be able to continue his many musical activities shortly after the first of the year. Helen Miller recently presented two groups of young students in pre- holiday programs. Those in the| Sandy Spring group were Betty Cissel, | Margaret Farquhar, Caroline Barns- ley, Peter Hyde, Helen Gray Miller and Cornelia Thomas. In the Wash- ington group, Barbara Beij, Eliza- beth Ford, Helen Lorraine Jones and Dorothy Staples. Mary Izant Couch presents Dorothy Nefl Tyler, soprano, with Kathryn Hill Rawls at the piano, in a program of early Italian, German and English songs at the Woman's City Club to- morrow at 5:30 p.m. The Madrigal Singers, directed by Mrs. John Milton Sylvester, will pre- sent Christmas carols from French, Polish and early English sources for the Petworth Women's Club at the residence of Mrs. Alfred C. Norcross, 819 Taylor street northwest, Monday at the Church of the Incarnation (Evangelical Lutheran) on December 23, at Tilden Gardens for the Abra- cadabra Club on December 26 and at the Southern Relief Home on Decem- ber 29. Pattie Paul, 4-year-old violinist, was presented recently by Elena de Sayn at Somerset, Md., and at the Junior Federation of Music Clubs’ concert last evening. She was accompanied at the pilano by her mother, Dorothy Paul. ‘The Choral Group of the Arts Club, under the direciton of Otto Torney Simon, will present a Christmas con- cert in the club auditorium on Thurs- day evening at 8:30 o'clock. Mar- garet Tolson will be at the piano. The Piano Teachers’ Forum will have its regular monthly meeting at 10:30 am. Thursday at the studio of the Homer L. Kitt Piano Co. An ar- ticle entitled “Music Education in Czechoslovakia,” by Vladimir Vasa, will be read. All piano teachers are :ordially invited to attend this meet- ng. The Friday Morning Music Club will present Charlotte Klein in an or- gan recital Friday at 11 am. at the National City Church, Thomas Circle. Miss Klein will play a program of Bach and Handel compositions, as- sisted by Vera Neely Ross, contralto. Pranceska Kaspar Lawson, soprano, assisted by Harry Wheaton Howard at the piano, gave a song recital for the faculty and students of the Im- maculate Conception Church School last Tuesday and on Friday the same program was given for the Sacred Heart School. On December 5 Mrs. Lawson and Mr. Howard gave a re- eital for St. Cecilia's Academy. Grete von Bayer will play Bach’s “Italian Concerto,” arranged for two pianos by Harold Bauer, with Helen Grimes ai the second piano, for the alumni of the Rho Beta Chapter of Mu Phi Epsilon, National Music Sorority, on January 14. At Miss Cryder’s musicale last Sun- day Georgia Hazlett O'Leary substi- tuted on short notice for Mrs. S. WHILE thlx week’s stage show at the Earle seemed to us to be also particularly agreeable. It starts off with the Five Balabanow, a good accordian act, that is cheered along by the dancing talents of its maestro and the buxom beauty of some of its frauleins. It continues with the Three Queens, a fast-stepping trio who have timed their act exactly right. It features William Hall, a gilant baritone, who fooled his audi- ence yesterday by proving that he can sing without a “mike,” which un- expected gesture (which some fellow in the audience demanded) gave him an ovation. And it ends with those “Show Boat” radio comedians, Molasses and January, whose some- times new and sometimes old (and sometimes not so nice) jokes get a roar from the multitude. * ok JOE PENNER'S duck and “College Rhythm” go merrily quacking along for a second week at the Palace— thus proving pretty definitely that we | were all wrong when we said that the | picture wasn't so good. According to the box office, Mr. Penner is a riot, Lanny Ross is a Barrymore, Miss Brian is a Duse and Jack Oakie is Charlie Chaplin—only we don't think so. Still—it’s not one of the worser mu- sicals, being gay in spirit, full of good music (some of which is well-sung by that excellent singer, Mr. Ross) and amusingly motivated by Lyda Roberti, a swell comic, and by the occasionally drole Mr. Penner. If you like Mr. Penner, you'll like the film very much. If you don't, you'll get along well enough with Mr. Oakie (conceded by many to top Pen- | ner), Miss Roberti and George Barbier as the department store magnet whose foot is the cause of much interest. The picture has at least two of the season’s best songs. usic Circles Peter Wagner, who was fll. Mrs. O’Leary’s program included two Yugo- slavian folk songs and songs by Foudrain, Richard Hageman and Lehar and two encores. Mrs. Hutson, pianist, accompanied Mrs. O'Leary in her songs and also played three Hungarian folk songs which she arranged especially for piano. The Y. W. C. A. will present its annual Christmas caroling program, starting Thusday, under the direction of Mary M. Burnett, music secretary of the Y. W. C. A. The schedule is as follows: Thursday evening, Blue | Triangle Club, Seventeenth and K streets; Friday noon, staff at 614 E street and Seventeenth and K streets; | Friday evening, Elizabeth Somers Glee Club; Saturday noon, staff at Seven- eenth and K streets; Saturday eve- ning, Business and Professional Wo- men’s Glee Club; Monday noon, De- cember 24, staff at Seventeenth and K streets. PUPILS GIVE PLAY. Friends and patrons of Little Gun- ston, the junior department of Gun- ston Hall, have been invited to at- tend the Nativity Play given by mem- bers of the school this afternoon at 5 o'clock in the auditorium, 1906 Flor- ida avenue. The play is opened by a processional chorus of 22 former jun- ior school girls who are now in’ the upper school. The music used is the Kol Nidre, an old Hebrew theme. played by Mildred Kolb Schulze at |the piano and Carolyn Randall, vio- lin. The Sargent Frieze of the Prophets has been used as the pic- torial background of the first scene, while the music is based upon au- thentic Hebrew melodies. Sunday night the senior school will hold a candlelight service followed by scenes from “Little Women,” in which the following students will take part: Harriet Freeman, Fame Craig, Anne Woolworth, Betty Joe McNar- | ney, Mary Ovelton Zurhorst and Helen Patton. BENEFIT SHOW. A benefit performance, showing Joe E. Brown in “Son of a Sailor,” an Our Gang comedy and Walt Disney Christmas cartoon, will be given at the Takoma Theater Wednesday, De- cember 19, at 3:30 p.m. Admission by contribution of new articles of clothing, food and toys. The henefit is sponsored jointly by the Lions Club and Takoma Theater. All contributions will be distributed by the Lions Ciub to needy families of Takoma Park and vicinity. LISA GARDINER, Prominent local dancer, will pre- sent her pupils in recital this eve- ning at Central High School, under the auspices of the Community Center Department. 4 is unpretentious it! John | ESTELLE Fox. TAYLOR ! Is the headliner of the stage show which is now being featured at the ! Miss Taylor will return to Hollywood following this engagement. O YOU remember the one about the two aviators? Or was it one? Well, however ‘twas, they have told it again rather attractively and with the usual frills in a film called “Hell in the Heavens,” which opened yesterday here at Loew's Fox Theater. At this stage of the flying picture game, characters, plot and settings are beginning to wear that slightly tarnished look of a road company at its 308th performance of double {“Uncle Tom's Cabin,” but don't let that worry you. Warner Baxter is| the hero of the latest cinematic ven- ture into the skies, the feminine in- terest is accented by Conchita Monte- | negro and there are a lot of well-| trained minor actors following up the | procession with impersonations of (a) the young man who is too full of ginger to think of his own thick skin in aerial dog fights; (b) the bright-eyed boy scared to death by his own dreams, and a darned good im- agination in re: The pleasures of be- ing shot down in flames; (c) the comic orderlies and the grim me- chanics, proud of their motors and rather harsh critics of the fiyers handling them. In case you are worried about the fates of these gay Devil Dogs (we liked | their bottle dedicated to death, as grandiose a gesture as has been made since Diamond Jim Brady's transpor- tation set), you may be sure Mr. Bax- | ter wins his sky-high tussle with the mighty baron, a German ace who hap- pily is not to be slain by a mere fall of a few thousand feet. You see, Lieut Steve Warner (all good Americans in France are named Steve, we believe) | was so scared of the baron the name held a fatal fascination for him. Every night he dreamed the German ace had shot him down. Every day he went scooting around the heavens to find Another Aviation Story With Mr. Baxter as Hero !*Hell in the Heavens " Shows Battles in the Skies { and All the Excitement That Goes With ! Them—Estelle Taylor on Stage. out what the dreams meant. One day he shot down a plane flying the baron’s banner, and it seemed the curse had been lifted. He was about to skip off to matrimony with the merry French lass—mucho schmolzo, as Mr. Peters lisps—when he is informed the victory was somewhat silly, as the baron’s brother was flying his plane in that battle. Oh, well, the baron shows up, Steve leaps out of his go-to-wedding suit into a plane and they have a very pretty shooting match in the clouds When Steve’s machine gun jams he solves his predicament by smacking straight on into the baron’s plane. They both tumble earthward; both get a mere scratch or two for their fall Steve runs off to ring wedding bells. In the meantime various other mem- bers of his, troupe have met various tragic fates. Thought you'd like to be forewarned, to send flowers. Miss Estalle Taylor is show headliner at Fox this week decidedly charming person, she sings a rather mixed assortment of songs in good voice. We thought “Contin- ental” out of place on her program, and the semi-sentimental numbers the best. Pernaps the most exciting piece of theatrics seen around here is the act staged by the Great Yacopis, a top- the stage notch teeter-board act which achieves | the impossible approximately six times over. Don't get in late and miss this one. They open the bill The inning on the boards is filled out with Miss Helen Compton's ade- quate Bryn Mawr Orchestra, all girls, and a few specialties, and a comedy turn by Si Will and Joan Davis. The Fox also has the usual newsc| reel, very familiar if you have been to the other theaters around town this week. The topical photographers seem to be running in coveys these days, aping one another like so many monkeys. At least the results are horribly alike. R. B. P, Jr. GARBO FILM BACK FOR ANOTHER WEEK “The Painted Veil” Opens at the Columbia for a Run of Seven Days. A mere two weeks downtown would never be enough for any Garbo film, hence the return to F street of “The Painted Veil,” which opened yesterday at the Columbia for the third week. On the screen, Somerset Maugham'’s tale is a sort of jumbled-up affair, but it has Garbo, more than which no film could have. = It has Garbo, maybe not at her best, but far, far from her worst. First off, she is a smiling and happy Garbo with a brand-new hus- band (acquired, from all indications, because he could take her places she had never been), then later, through press of circumstances or Mr. Maugham or Director Richard Bole- slavski she is a saddened and trouble- ridden creature with a disillusioned husband, a lover and & problem on her hands. “The Painted Veil,” dreary as it may be, is an excellent vehicle for the glamorous one, handing her an oppor- tunity in the earlier scenes to be a gay and zestful young lady, then turning around (when she gets to China and has a lover in addition to a husband) and providing for her all the sorrows she needs to evoke her more tortured moods. But merry or moody, she is Garbo and if you are one of the 99 out of a 100, that is sufficient recom- mendation for any film; there is only one Garbo. Herbert Marshall, the husband in the case, runs Garbo a close race for acting honors, but, of course, excellent acting is expected of Mr. Marshall. George Brent plays the cad who almost breaks up & more or less happy home, and in our opinion at least, he does that sort of thing well. Jean Her- sholt, Warner Oland and Forrester Harvey have only bit roles, but do them well. H M TWO0 FEATURE FILMS. The unusual prospect of witnessing two different feature films in the same week, faces Loew's Palace Theater pa- trons. When the current attraction, “College Rhythm,” with Joe Penner, Lanny Ross and others makes its exit on Friday morning, “It's a Gift,” a comedy with W. C. Fields and Baby LeRoy will take its place. “It's a Gift” will remain on the Palace screen for four days only, with “Forsaking All Others,” the drama that brings, together for the first time Clark Gable, Joan Crawford and Rob- ert Montgomery, slated to open on Christmas day for an indefinite run. .’ | “THE TINKER” STAGED BY CHURCH PLAYERS Young People of National City Christian Church Do Well With Eastman Play. An actor in a comparatively small role turned out the best performance last night when the Dramatic Club of the National City Christian Church presented “The Tinker,” by Fred Eastman. That actor was Harold Minor, who played the part of Jermey Whitney, a drunken wreck, broken by a life spent squandering his inheri- tance. He played the part without once stepping beyond the realm of Pprobability or indulging in over-dra- matic gestures. S. Whitman Cordes also did well as David Whitney, Jermey's brother. He is a bank clerk in a small New England town, burdened by an ex- travagant family who spend more than they can afford in the hope that a supposedly dead uncle has remem- bered them in his will. When they do read the will they find that what the uncle has left them is their love for one another, the joy that comes with old age, the appreciation of good literature and the beauties of nature. The part of the tinker is played by Theodore Fretey. He comes into the Whitney home to repair a clock, but before he leaves he shows the family that love and understanding mean more ‘than money. Jane Seymore (Mildred Smith), a clever little miss, finally reveals him as the very much alive uncle, who indeed has enough money to help the Whitneys out of their financial difficulties. Another player deserving mention is Laney Payne Sadler, who played the role of Marjorie, David’s daughter. “The Tinker” will be presented again this evening at the social hall, 1310 Vermont avenue, at 8 o'clock. G. E H. CHRISTMAS PAGEANT. A Christmas pageant, written and directed by Mrs. Thomas W. Pyle and sponsored by the Bethesda Woman's Club, will be given tomorrow after- noon at 4 o'clock at the Bethesda- Chevy Chase High School. Principal players will include Mrs. Gilbert®Gros- venor, Mrs! Roland Marshall, Mrs. Maud Howell Smith and members of the Montgomery Players. The Lov- ette Choral Club, directed by Mrs. Eva Whitford Lovette, will furnish the musical background. Bounty on Foxes Talked. Australia may place a bounty on foxes, which have become a pest. Al |“THE MENACE” PUTS PROBLEM TO AUDIENCE Story at the Metropolitan Gives Customers Chance to Solve Mystery. “Menace,” a decidedly swift and puzzling mystery yarn, opened here yesterday at Warner Bros” Metro- politan, with Gertrude Michael, Paul Cavanaugh, John Lodge and sundry others in the cast. Telling the tale of three persons, two men and a woman, who have been threatened with death by & maniac intent upon revenging a brother he imagines they have killed (the man actually shot himself during a sullén mood of disappointment), the picture is one of the creepiest “who- dunit thrillers” manufactured around the show shops in recent months. Two out of the three intended Vic- tims get knives in the back—one can take it, and the other dies—but, ere the final curtain, the villain is re- vealed, and we don’t mind saying this is the first and only mystery plot we ever solved before some one drew a map of it on the screen. Especially recommended to your attention are the antics of a certain butler, who is the key man of the whole ghastly busi- ness. If you can unravel him, as it were, the rest is easy. The Met this week has its usual ample quota of shorts and a double- length news reel. Suggest you miss the current “Broadway Brevity” if pos- sible. It is embarrassingly terrible. R.B.P, Jr. “THE BLACK FLAMINGO” BY MONTGOMERY GROUP | Young Players Present Thrilling Stage Story of Some Mys- terious Doings. The Montgomery Players last night | turned their ample artistic talents to costume and mystery, playing a piece by one Sam Janney, called “The Black | Flamingo,” and in so doing had those | ample abilities taxed to the utmost by | an opus only slightly less heavy and\ dreary than the cold stone walls of | the Black Flamingo Inn, wherein the action occurs. The story is about various attempts | by various gentlemen to recover for various reasons a diamond necklace | belonging to the Queen of France. It/ has a very good first act curtain | wherein a fellow looks up a chimney | for something and gets yanked up into | darkness by the neck, and a very good second act curtain wherein the same | fellow bounces down out of the chim- ney to fall limp before most of the; cast. | But any complaints must be against the piay itself, for there can be none against the players. Each and every | one of them reads his lines in a thor- ough manner. Walter M. McIntosh does the best job as an eager would-be | murderer of any and all French aris- tocrats of the year 1792, fully deserv- {ing the smashing salvo of applause he | received for an especially rousing | tirade against*said aristocrats. Eliza- i beth Moore is another who deserves the laurel crown for a noble piece of work. She has herself hypnotized | beautifully, screams loudly and well, \ smiles sweetly and in general does an all-around grand piece of acting. | Doris Dewey Day. Margaret J.| Buckley, Edmond E. Soper, Fowler and J. Mahlon Selby are also | | of much help, with the burden of com- | edy relief being placed upon the | shoulders of Mr. Selby, who achieves ' it by being an effeminate and prett lover of roast piglets. Others who do .(l\én bits well are Margaret B. Key- | hoe, James Russell Nicholson, J. A. Bishop, Clarence L. Click, William J. McIntyre and Harold S. Norton. “The Black Flamingo™ was directed {by J. A. Bishop. It will be repeated tonight at 8:20 at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School. —H M PRESENT A COMEDY A short three-act comedy, “For| Rent, Furnished,” was presented by the Parish Hall Pl s of the Atone- | ment Lutheran Church in the church | hall last night The comedy. however, was spotty, the main wit eminating from the role | | of Laura Waugh. As Ada, the young daughter of a married couple living | in an apartment, Miss Waugh carried the major part of the comedy. The play concerned the “trials and tribulations” of a young married couple. Several conflicting stories are told and enacted by the cast, the principal one being the husband doubting his wife’s love. In the mar- ried couple roles were Clifford Vaughn and Lucile Johnson. Both did credit- | able work despite the sometimes no- | ticeable lack of proper lines. George Hunt, as an old suitor of the newly married wife, also put forth a good effort. The “kid next door” (Ada) just about “carried” the play, how- ever. Others in the cast who had lesser | roles but fulfilled them acceptably were Evelyn McDonald, Mrs. Rosser, Robert Volland, Mrs. Borden, Aagot Nordby and William E. Trible. R. B. H. Candida ELIZABETH GRAY, Daughter of the chancellor of American University and Mrs. Joseph Gray, has the title role in “Candida,” which the Dramatic Club of American University will present next Wednesday evening.
