rT'HE American University Dramatic
* Club presented Shakespeare's
“Macbeth” last night in the audi
torium on the campus in the Eliza

tion, under direction of Will Hutch
ins, professor of art. The stage set
tings were simple but effective, espe
cially in weird scenes of the witches’
dance and appearance of appari
tions.
Leonel Dick portrayed Macbeth in
stirring fashion, while other inter
pretations of note were given by
Mary Lawrence Daub as Lady Mac
beth, Arthur Murphy as Malcolm,
Albert Buffington as Donalbain,
Daniel Smith as Banquo, Henry B.
Johnson, jr., as Macduff, Helen
Buffington as Lady Macduff. Dan
Terrell as an attendant and Carlton
Skeggs, in a short comedy bit, as a
porter.
The student staff assisting Prof.
Hutchins was headed by Virginia
Pedersen an stage manager and
Beatrice Adam as business manager.
A large and appreciative audience
frequently showed its approval of
the presentation.

Novarro in “Huddle,”
At Loew's Palace.
RAMON NOVARRO, one-time
Ben Hur, another time the
Student Prince, and subse
quently Miss Garbo’s most
inflammatory admirer, is seen
as the spirit of foot ball in his latest
picture, entitled • “Huddle,” now at
Loew's Palace. Although Eli brethren
mav frown at Hollywood’s intrusion
Into its scholas
tic sanctums,
and although it
is probably true
that sons of
this venerated
university
do not stand
around in cir
c 1 e s chanting
"Boola - boola,”
there is never
theless less ob
jectionable alma
mater hokum in
it than have
featured many
of its predeces
sors. It may be
said, in fact,
to be one of the
Ramon Novarro.
more amusing iuui. uau ran-ran
stories
This is due to several major ac
complishments: In the first place,
Novarro does not win the foot ball
game; he is not tapped for Skull and
Bones, and he dees not make love to
Madge Evans in the middle of a
Harvard-Yale struggle. As the sturdy
offspring of Steel Worker Amatto
(played volcanically by Henry
Armetta), who wins a scholarship
at Rudy Vallee’s ex-home of learn
ing, he is, in the words of the script,
not anxious to be a hero, but merely
a member of the “gang.” He gets
there finally, after a long and bitter
struggle during which he has played
in a foot ball game with a bursting
appendix.
Good all-around entertainment
(except certain sob moments toward
the last) this is the kind of picture
which Novarro enthusiasts feared
for and which has turned out much
better than even the optimists could
have hoped for. Novarro plays his
role enthusiastically and doesn't seem
to mind getting his face dirty. In
fact, the dirtier his face the better
and the younger he looks. He is
assisted, too, by an excellent cast, in
which the aforementioned Henry
Armetta shines most particularly—
but which also includes splendid
services by John Arledge and Ralph
Graves—as also Madge Evans, look
ing well, if not playing quite ditto.

Second Week of
“Grand Hotel.”
A/TCKI BAUM’S trenchant ob
’ ser vat ions concerning the in
nards of a great continental hos
telry, all rolled together into "Grand
Hotel.'' continue to lure numberless
patrons to Loews Columbia Theater,
where this saga of European flotsam
and jetsam is thriving in the hands
of a five-star cast.
Here, for the mere tossing away
of a week's earnings, one may view
Miss Garbo as a ballet queen, Lionel
Barrymore as a sick worker-of-the
world, John Barrymore as a blue
blood crook. Joan Crawford as a
sophisticated typist, Wallace Beery
as a financial tyrant and Lewis
Stone, Jean Hersholt and troupes
of others as the remaining souls
who frequent expensive lodgings of
this sort. Photographed with great
skill by Cameraman Daniels, di
rected brilliantly by Edmund Gould
ing and acted by at least half of
the above with uncommon ability—
one may say that "Grand Hotel”
is a fine translation of the original
and one quite worth the moun
tainous money bags which were
trundled out of financial cellars to
get it into shape. E. de S. M.
“Blonde Captive,'*
At the Metropolitan.
W/HILE the shots of tribal ladies
” of Northern Australia, who are
called "Gin” (when you want your
wife you merely cry “Here Gin—here
Gin!”), are extremely interesting, as
also the ceremonies in which a
youth, by having his two front teeth
knocked out, rises to the state of
man. the film "Blonde Captive,”
with its theatric ending, is not quite
as blistering as the lurid posters
suggest. Large audiences, however,
at Warner's Metropolitan yesterday
found much of this Paul Wlthing
ton expedition ta Australia extreme
ly interesting—and the fact that
Lowell Thomas, sometimes amusing
and sometimes not, does a Graham
MacNamee all the way through,
helps it or not—as you will.
Oddly enough, however, the Blonde
herself, who is the cause for all the
publicity shooting, seemed to these
eyes extraordinarily dark—in fact,
if she isn’t as mud-colored as her
Neanderthal husband then Gin never
was Gin—which it isn’t in thesa
parts. This lady, whose hair ap
parently decided to become a plati
num color (even in the land where
they have never heard of Jean Har
low' i, has a small Infant, whose hair
is also of the same variety. This
fact has led the expedition to state
on oath that this lady, once wedded
to a pearl fisherman of white de
scent, was stranded on these dreary
shores, and that ever since she has
lived there with tribesmen who are
at the far end of the human calen
dar. In fact, although they do not
let you hear her—which might very
easily have been accomplished, if
it were true—they tell you that she
can speak English quite well, but
that she prefers the strange lan
guage of her deep, dark husband.
This part of the film is far from
convincing. The way in which she
w'aves a theatric adieu to the ex
pedition from the summit of a great
cliff, an adieu which looks as if it
had been rehearsed many times,
clinches the theory that fiction has
become stronger than fact, and tnat
this "act" was probably cooked up
merely for the sake of boxofflce ju
bilation.
However, the sightseeing trips
through Bali, Pago-Pago. the Fiji
Islands and the north of Australia
are quite stimulating. And, w'hile
the main theme of the story is the
search for Neanderthal man, the
main interfest comes from seeing
mammoth turtles, that lay eggs by
the dozens; seacows, kangaroo end
various degrees of Malay debutantes
.—-mho somehow do not compare, cl
though Mr. Thomas seems to think
so with similar products from May
Fair, Park Avenue, or the Champs
Eiysee. E. dc S. M,
“Roadhouse Murder” and “Cain”
In Joint Bill at Keith’s.
T INFOLDING a story made to or
aJ der, with the purpose of fur
nishing an appropriate background
for the acting of Dorothy Jordan and
the young leading man, Eric Lin
den “The Roadhouse Murder” at
R-K-O Keith’s Theater intro
duces a new phase of movie news
paper activities. A young couple is
voluntarily tied up to a crime in or
der to attract public attention to the
work of a reporter. It is not alto
gether plausible, but aside from that
point of criticism, it is made enter
taining by the conflict with the offi
cers of the law and the superactiv
ity of the journalism of fiction.
Perhaps from the standpoint of the
screen, it offers enough variety in
its contacts with the rougher side of
life and in the unfolding of char
acters to bring it within the classi
fication of live drama.
Miss Jordan's highly developed
talents have had better opportuni
ties but in this production her ad
mirers may find enough of the tra
ditional sparkle. Mr. Linden is a
clear-cut actor, with the ajert car
riage which puts him appropriately
Into a newspaper play, and the two |
leading members of the cast carry
the greater part of the plot. Rosco
Ates introduces once more his trick
of distorting the language, and, as
in past efforts, the authors have re
membered to put a little philosophy
and humor into his brief remarks.
The weirdness of the roadhouse
background provides atmosphere,
and the whole is staged with the as
sistance of characters made effective
by Bruce Cabot. Phyllis Clare. Pur
nell Pratt. Gustav von Seyfferitz,
David Landau and Roscoe Kams.
The second part of the program is
the picturization of the life of a
representative of modem life who is
marooned in a savage environment
on a sea island. He wins a bride
after a battle with her savage
friends, and establishes a home on
the island, where he meets the usual
difficulties of the primitive life, and
becomes a contented savage himself.
When the inevitable ocean steamer
arrives, he agrees to return to civili
zation and boards the ship, but the
woman drives her water craft out to
the place from which his voyage is
about to begin, and the home ties
Inspire him to leap overboard and
resume the romantic life of the is
land. His decision is clinched when
the radio brings over the sea the
stories of the distressing things of
modern life. It is a pleasant little
study in human nature. D. C. C.
Baxter in "Man About Town”
Has Washington Setting.
T OCAL pride may give double im
pressiveness to "Man About
Town,” in which Warner Baxter is
starred on the Loew's Fox program.
It is a diplomatic story, its scenes in
Washington. With a combination
of blackmail and a mysterious mur
der. worked out with the skill of a
real dramatist, the play may be
welcomed as a good piece of work,
in which the star is ably assisted by
Karen Morley and Conway Tearle. A
husband who has disappeared for a
period of years and is thought to Bb
dead turns up at an inconvenient
time for his earlier wife, because she
has already become the bride of a
diplomat. As the price of silence he
asks the woman to deliver to him a
secret treaty. She undertakes to do
so. but her sister intervenes and kills
the blackmailer. The investigation
of the murder furnishes the greater
part of the plot, with some attempted
action in the line of self-sacrifice.
Mr. Baxter and his two associates are
admirably cast.
Further evidence of the musical
quality of the Fox Orchestra, under
the spirited leadership of Phil Lamp
kin is given in the Impressive playing
of the William Tell overture, with
complete utilization of all the instru
ments in this big organization.
Wesley Eddy conducts the stage
performance, with his own well
recognized contributions in song and
comedy, and he introduces some
finely staged scenes representing a
Spanish screen, a French screen and
a modern screen. It all has the
swift action characteristic of Loew
productions, and presents a series
of acts by talented performers. The
scenic portion is artistically made,
and the costuming, largely with the
wide-skirt feature, is rich in color
and ensemble. There is a succession
of comedy, singing, dancing and
group formations. Franklyn d’Amore
is the leading comedian, Chaney and
Fox are the featured dancers. Joe
Grlflen and Stelle Powers sing with
good effect, A1 Norman dances in his
comic specialty and gives an exhibi
tion of various types of sleeping,
while the Chester Hale Girls com
plete the program. D. C. C.

“Bluebeard” and Ohio Man
Both Used Matrimonial
Mart to Secure Brides.
By the Associated Press.
ATHENS. Ohio, May 21.—The same
matrimonial agency that served Harry
Powers, the West Virginia "Bluebeard,”
was blamed by authorities today for the
trouble In which George N. Stevens, 53
years old, finds himself.
Stevens is charged with having five
wives, all of whom he met, police said,
through the American Friendship So
ciety, a matrimonial agency now out of
business.
Michigan authorities said they were
told that Stevens’ wives include Blanche
Burch of Athens. Mrs. Lulu E. Burke
of Plainwell. Mich.; Mrs. Cora Hamil- :
ton of Union City, Mich.; Mrs. Utha
Liggett of Magnetic Springs. Ohio, and
an unidentified woman in Oberlin, Ohio.
Defrauded Several.
Stevens, arrested here yesterday, was
alleged to have defrauded several of the
women of jewelry and money. The
bigamy complaint was made by Mrs.
Burke, who said she married him in
September, 1931, and that he deserted
a month later, taking $11 and a check
book.
Lieut. L P. Hutson of the Michigan
State police, said the latest of the Stev
ens weddings was performed last Satur
day in Catlettsburg, Ky., with the Ath
ens woman as the bride.
Stevens spent about one month with
each wife, Lieut. Hutson said, and then
departed with whatever cash and val
uables they possessed.
