Her per- formance features an X-ray of her- self showing heart beats, etc., and her sword-pierced casket illusion 18 productive of much talk. $500 is offered to anyone who can prove that Leah MaM O'Mist is not insile the casket throughout the entire mystifying performance. Other acts feature the Gibsons in A Cycle of Thrills;” Sally and Sun- ny in “A Smile a Step;” Bobbe and King “Two Nuts" and “Flashlights” with Evans and Pitts and eight feminine dance flashes. Audiences who saw “The Man I Love,” the latest Paramount all- talking picture, at the Strand the- ater last night where it opened a 3 day run, 'were electrified with the fire and verve of screendom’s most lovable couple, Richard Arlen and Mary Brian. They talk, Miss Brian sings and they act the catchy, ad- venturous drama with delightful abandon and force. A superb cast, including Baclanova, Harry Green and Jack Oakie, assist the princi- pals. | It is the first time that the screen | has recorded the voices of Arlen and Miss Brian and their tonal charm ‘equals their personalities. They are delightful. Miss Brian sings the theme song, “Celia,” with great of- fect and the incidental sounds anil excitement are sure-fire. *“The Man “SIMBA” AT CAPITAL The last fifteen minutes of “Sim- ba,” the motion picture record of four years in the African jungles by Mr, and Mrs, Martin Johnson, whicn is at the Capitol theater today and Saturday, are exciting enough for an evening's entertainment. The spec- tacle of a handful of African Na- tives, armed only with spears and | shields, facing and slaying full- grown lions, will thrill anyone to the core. The courage of these, bla who are determined to destroy th ravagers of their flocks is somothing | that could not be believed if it were not recorded by the camera. And all the rest of the film is on a par with these last minutes, for this picture is the greatest ever made of big game hunting. Martin and Osa Johnson, with their cam eras and the native escort—'safari,” is the native term—trudged throush the jungles of British East Africy and Tanganyika, their travels radi- ating from their base camp at Lake Paradise, for ‘the better part of four years. Not many animals of that section escaped their cameras, There arg zebras, giraffes, hippos. rhinos, enormous clephants, leop- ards, antelope, ostriches and a host of others. One of the great scenes of the picture is the stampede of a herd of elephants, terrorized by a Jjungle fire. This, incidentally, gave the Johnsons a real thrill, because they too were in the path of the flames and narrowly escaped being trampled by -the elephants in thes rush for safety. | | | |8aret I, J.
