Anotner great tragedy in Movie Land, Zharlie Chaplin will never he able t¢ wear his big shoes again. Isolated in the cast snow wastes nf Alaska. Lost and without food. Alone save 10r that grim companion, hunger. Starvation stalking outside his wind-blown cabln — driven to desperation by the pangs of an cinpty stomach he—as others in like places have done hefore—eats his good friend, tho' that friend has carried him over the road to sucs cvss, to the topmost peak of fame. But what is one friend to a hungry—fame does not fill the stom- ach, So, Charlle eats one of his famous shoes, In “The Gold Rush,” now playing at the Capltol theater, under a Unit- ed Artists Corporation release, you actually see Charlle Chaplin boil and cat his monstrous shoes, with a del- icacy and relish that is an artistic triumph in pantomime. The question now arises how will he ever be able to amble through ‘e rest of his comedies minus one of his famous shoes. v Brems, Fitz and the Murphy 08, who offer harmony and com- ly to the delight of all.

Headed by Allan Dinehart, the company achieves the goal of stage folks — the audience forgets it is in a thea- ter and enjoys the {llusion of watching the actions and lstening to the conversation of people in the life instead of actors and actresses.” “Applesauce” was played at Par- sons' theater last season. No doubt many who saw it then will want to see it agaln during its three days'| run this week. It is a comedy which {can be enjoyed over and over.
