Valor and Vigor In an Old Time Drama
Smart Combination
Going on at
the Fox
A motion picture decidedly out
of the usualy Hollywood rut is
“The Forbidden Woman,” on view
at the Fox Theater this week, in
conjunction with a massive stage
shuw.
Three exceptional persons of
the silent drama enact the prin
cipal roles. They are Jetta
Goudal, she of the huge coiffures;
the handsome Joseph Schildkraut,
who yields to no other film actor
in pantomimic ability, and Victor
Varconi, an outstanding example
of what a film actor should be.
The two men are brothers —one
a violinist, the other a colonel in
the French army, assigned to
popular colonial sport of Arab
chasing. The woman is an
Arabian spy, who marries the
colonel to get his campaign se
crets.
Not knowing that the woman
is his brother’s wife, the violinist
falls in love with her, and she
with him. When the husband dis
covers their love and blames his
brother, there ensues a film story
which for drama, suspense and
character building we can find no
modern -parallel. The tale ends
just as it should, but it wouldn’t
be fair to tell how.
The Fox orchestra rises out of
the pit to play an overture of Irish
airs, followed by a full stage act
in which the house chorus, ballet
and soloists disport themselves in
what is generally taken to be the
Goelic mannef.
The Fox News and movietone
reel is interesting as usual, with
an Army Band concert and horse
tricks at Ft. Myer to furnish local
color.
Beatrice Lillie, whom we refuse
to address as Lady Peel, furnishes
one of her inimitable solos in
movietone. The device sometimes
failed, to catch the full benefit of
her asides and her shrill high
notes, although the pantomime
was all that could be expected.
A St. Patrick’s Day silhouette,
with a harpist, lady singer and
four dancers, fills another space,
and then along comes Jan Garber
with his band and the rest of the
show—singers, dancers and com
edians galore. That, my good peo
ple, is what is technically known
as one’s money’s worth.—-J. R.
Real Vaudeville,
Every Inch
of It
Most excellent fare is pur
veyed- by Manager Roland Rob
bins at B. F. Keith’s this week—
the last bill, by the way, prior to
the adoption of the new policy—
in a program which forms in
many ways a decided departure
from the conventional. Neither
athletic, animal nor other form
of "dumb acts” are to be found
thereon and the first curtain rises
to disclose Jane and Ginge?
Rodgers, whom one needs no
program to identify as- sisters,
in "Just Out of College,” in which
they introduce a reries of new
songs, which, aided by their scin
tillating personalities go over
with wim and wigor. Gilbert and
French follow and introduce them
selves, as the program has it,
with novel dance steps. The
novelty of a glimpse back-stago
seems ever new and Jim Mc-
Laughlin and Blanche Evans score
heavily in Edgar Allan Woolf’s
sketch relating the tribulations of
a couple of hoofers on a small
time circuit.
The big spot on the bill is oc
cupied by Babe Egan and her
Hollywood Redheads, a full jazz
band, every member cf which is a
charming brick-top, a type of
hirsute adornment which seems to
have found particular favor in the
Capital lately, and nearly every
one of whom contributes evidence
of talent in a solo bit. Second
honors go to Joan Carter Waddell,
assisted by Nelson Snow and
Charles Columbus, in a preten
tious dance flash.
Dolly Conoly, dazzling brunette,
sings delightfully and personably
while Tex McLeod who says he’s
just over from England revives
Will Roger’s original style of act
with lariat and all,- together with
many topical references for which
Will himself need not apologize.
Marjorie Tiller, stunning beauty,
assists him —but not enough. Then
Harry Frankel and Joe Dunlevy
in blackface in songs and wit
ticisms leave the audience crying
for more.
No, sir! No one can pick a
quarrel with this bill.
Why Movie Money Goes
Efficiency in Hollywood, as re
ported by Photoplay:
O. P. Heggie, the actor in the
stage revival of “Trelawney of
the Wells,” was rushed from
New York to Hollywood to appear
in Norma Shearer’s interpretation
of the play under the name of
"The Actress.”
Production was delayed while
he crossed the continent; special
cars met him at the station and
rushed him to the studio without
even stopping to deliver his lug
gage.
When he arrived., it. was dis
covered that he would work for !
two days with his face beneath a
newspaper covering. Any “prop”
boy could have sat in the position
and no one know the difference.
A Real Film Tragedy
Those of you who cried over
Emil Jannlngs in "The Last Com
mand” may squeeze a few more
tears from the fact that the story
of the picture was based on an
actual occurence, says Photoplay
Magazine. The real hero of the
story was not, of course, the Czar’s
cousin, but he was a general'high
in command in the Imperial Rus
sian army. The Russian general
went to Hollywood and tried to
get work as a movie extra. When
he failed, just as any other poor
old man might have failed, he
committed suicide.

MOLLY O’DAY and ALEC B. FRANCIS across the
Earle screen in that love saga of the Ozarks, “The
Shepherd of the Hills.”
An Old Favorite Is
Revived
By HAROLD PHILLIPS
“Within the Law,” a melodrama that.found its maturity some
dozen years ago, was revived last night at Poli’s in a setting
which simply smothers its producer, Chamberlain Brown, with
credit. Bayard Veiller wrote with a sturdy pen when he fashioned
this story of a persecuted shop girl and, blended as it was last
night with the talents of a flawless cast, the piece showed little
evidence of time’s imprint.
The principal roles are allot
ted to Violet Heming, Robert
Warwick, Charles Ray, May
Robson, Berton Churchill, Stan
ley Logan, Conway Wingfield,
Fritzi Scheff and Ruth Shepley.
Charlie Ray was of especial
interest to those who knew him.
only as a film actor. He demon
strates a stage presence and
reading ability that indicate he
was not an accident uncovered
by the movies.
Possibly Mary Turner’s history
is fairly familiar for* the screen
has told it in addition to the
many stage performances. One
follows the litlte shop girl who
la framed and sent up for three
years in Auburn prison for a
crime she did not commit. Re
leased, she starts upon a career
that treads close to the border
line of criminality and yet is
legally within the bounds. Her
obession is to pay back in sorrow
and suffering the department
store magnate whom she blamed
for her undeserved criminal
record. This she accomplished by
marrying his son. Always her
questinoable tactics have the back
ing of sound legal opinion. There
is a murder and a third degree
exposition and other elements of
sound melodrama which makes
for interesting moments, though
the play frequently creaks with
antiquated stage technique of an
other day.
Charlie Ray, perennial juvenile
of the screen, was welcomed in
the role of the boy, though voice
is not one of his major endow
ments. It was Fritzi Scheff, play
ing her first straight dramatic
role who intrigued most atten
tion. Cast as the sophiscated
and glib-tongued “Aggie Lynch’’
hers was the task of providing
much of the comedy, a role she
filled acceptably. Robert War
wick had his big opportunity in
the fourth act confess, on and
met it with a wholly worth-while
piece of acting. Violet Heming as
“Mary Turner,” Ruth Shepley
and Berton Churchill were others
congenially cast.
So much of the ups and downs
history of an earlier era of the
theater has been built around
the play, it was inevitable that
it would find its place among
the revivals which the modern
playgoer repopularizes and enjoys.
It is told, for instance that
William A. Brady tried out the
piece in Chicago and seeing no
possibility for profit forthwith re
linquished all rights for the
proverbial farthing. Its author,
with enthusiasm quenched sold
his equities for a mere SI,OOO in
lieu of further royalities. Then
the. Selwyns acquired the play and
thereby laid the corner stone of
their present sizable fortunes.
Not less than $500,000 in velvet
dividends did the Selwyns amass
in a three years’ run and out of
pure magnaminious spirit they
tossed a few royalty checks to the
then struggling Veiller. A budd
ing actress, Jane Cowl no less,
rode the harassed and persecuted
Mary Turner of the play direct
to the paths of stardom. Florence
Nas bounced into featured promi
nence as the wise cracking Aggie
Lynch. And so it goes.
“Within the Law” will fascinate
those who like to turn back a
page in the memory hook of the
theater. It has enough of action
and thrills for all who like an
evening packed with thrills and
a bit of mystery drama.
Corrine Gets $500,000
Corinne Griffith has had her
fling at independent producing—
and had enough of it. She's back
with First National now at a pit
tance of $500,000 a year.
Miss Griffith’s year as an inde
pendent cost her a reduction of
some $300,000 in Income.

Earle Screening
Mountain Love
Tale
They’ve screened Harold Bell
Wright’s rural masterpiece "The
Shepherd of the Hills” with all
of the book’s spiritual, virile and
poignant essentials intact, and
incidentally unpolluted by any
hint of plot deviation.
In adapting the original story
to the celluloid, it is pleasant to
know that particular care has
been taken to mould a cast
fitted to portray the roles en
trusted them.
Alex J. Francis is a tenderly
pathetic figure as the aged won
der worker of the primitive hill
district. Molly O’Day, diminutive
and winsome, would have taken
first honors had anyone but the
venerable Francis been included
in the picture’s arj-ay. However,
she does run a mighty good se
cond. John Boles is impressive
as the silent son of soil, whose
lot destines him to be unhappy
up to the final flicker.
Leon Navaro, a genial chap
with a “give the little one a
hand” urge, opens on the stage,
introducing a light tabloid ver
sion of "Cabaret.” Navaro suc
ceeds Whitey Kauffman as the
Earle master of ceremonies. He
is quite versatile with his own
digits, and his personal reper
toire is well received, and de
served. The Earle ballet corps,
and the six Brown Brothers, a
facetious saxaphone sextette har
monize well with the stage at
traction. —J. G.
Vidor Baby Nameless
Have you ever wished that
your parents had left you to
grow up and choose your own
name? Well, that seems to be
the idea of King Vidor and his
wife, Eleanor Boardman, of pic
ture fame. The first born of the
Vidors is still happily nameless.
"Just why don’t you name that
child?” someone demanded of
Papa Vidor.
“Why should we?” retorted
King. "There’s only one. There's
no need whatever to distinguish.”

The National Daily
War Comedy and a
Harold Lloyd
Reissue
Comedy of the good old-fash
ioned humorous kind, that does
one’s heart good to see, is t e
keynote of a double featuie bill
at the Rialto this week. "Buck
Privates,” co-starring Lya di
Putti and Malcolm McGregor,
is as delightful and entertaining
as any of the humorous picture®
that are an aftermath of the
war. "Grandma’s Boy. tn
vehicle which first carried Harold
Lloyd to fame, is revived to tne
very evident pleasure of the aurn
ei “Buck Privates” deals with army
life in Germany after the
tice. The boys are billeted in a
small town, and Private Smith
is assigned to Major von Ha -
mann’s home. The major 18
most radical German and makes
life for his unwelcome guest
rather unpleasant. His lovely
Jaughter (Lya di Putti), however,
falls in love with the A’^ erl^’ 1 ’
Her father, meeting with other
dignitaries, determines to cut
the hair of any woman
ing with the enemy, and when his
own daughter is the first culP l ’ ■
he is firm, though it nearly breaks
his heart. After certain hilarious
predicaments are set right, the
brides and grooms are at last
paired off correctly and the
necessary happy ending is e.-
fected. Zasu Pitts as the ether
fraulein bride is a knock-out.
Eddie Gribbon and James Marcus
are also exceptionally well cast.
Harold Lloyd certainly gave to
moviedom a classic when he made
"Grandma’s Boy.” Considered by
many his best work, it has, at
least, never been excelled by his
subsequent pictures. The boy is
a coward and so much so that he
cannot seem to overcome the fail
ing. The manner in which he
does finally play the hero fur
nishes a story so chock full of
laughs as to be well-nigh side
splitting.
Ampico Echoes with the Phan
tom Guests at the piano is the
overture arrangement. Interna
tional News rounds out the splen
did bill.—H. K.
Palace Features
Good Film and
Stage Bill
It is hard to decide which IS the
feature attraction at Loew’s Palace
this week, since both the screen
and stage presentations command
interest.
The picture is "Doomsday,” a
film version of the Warwick Deep
ing novel of the same name, and
depicts the story of a girl, who. to
satisfy her desires to live in luxury
and thus be forever free from the
drudgery of eternal dishwashing,
marries the wrong man. Later,
realizing her mistake, she has the
courage to admit it and sets about
proving that the routine business
of housework ceases to be
drudgery when love is a partner.
The story is simply told and the
direction is excellent.
Florence Vidor drops her role of
sophisticate long enough to give a
charming portrayal of the cirl
Mary, but acting honors must be
given to Gary Cooper, admirably
cast as Arnold, the young officer
who is so bitterly disappointed in
the girl he loves. Cooper gives the
role a sympathetic understanding
that makes you realize that here
is a screen star in the making.
The supporting cast is adequate.
The stage production is both
elaborate and voluminous and is
worthy of that popular (very popu
lar, it one judges by the applause
which greets him) master of cere
monies. Wesley Eddy. There are
some lovely voices in the ensem
ble and a male double quartet
which is noteworthy. The soprano
tenor duet of Marian Lax and
Robert Cloy is a real treat. Then
there is Ben Blue, originator of the
skating dance, who executes eccen
tric steps and almost stops the
show. Alfred Lantell is amusing
as "Bonzo,” the ivonder dog. The
entire act is well costumed and
staged. but if such large produc
tions continue at this popular
house, Mr. Beaus will be compelled
to add to the size of the stage,
since the ensemble seemed a bit
crowded when the dancers came to
the front.
There is an M.-G.-M. Newsreal of
varied interest, a Fable, and the
Palace Picture Book, which prom
ised to be a surprise and turned
out to be our friend, “Topics of the
Day.”—T. Y.

War In the Clouds
Pictured On
Met Screen
So great was the response to
the showing of “The Legion of
the Condemned” last week at the
Metropolitan that it has been held
over for another week, and judg
ing from the audience at the Sat
urday matinee it deservedly will
be a grand and glorious second
week for this theater.
“The Legion of the Condemned”
gives the spectator thrills, love
interest and suspense. From the
man who takes his flying serious
ly to the flapper who dwells upon
the romantic, no one will leave
this picture without a fine sense
of time well spent.
It is the war again, but the
war from a different angle and
developed to a high degree of dra
matic novelty. A young, American
newspaper man is thrown with an
unattached flying unit at the
front. They fight for the dan
gerous missions, making their
deeds of valor the talk and envy
of the fighting forces. Another
order for a “mission speclale”
comes through, and Price, the
newspaper man, gets it. He awaits
his passenger, to him known only
as agent 137. At dawn the agent
arrives, and as they are preparing
to take off, a sudden shift of the
propeller reveals Christine, his
former betrothed.
Price demands an explanation
of that night at the embassy
ball. Christine discloses that she
has been a government agent all
the while and was doing hex
duty to obtain enemy informa
tion. They take off for the
enemy territory and land safely.
Price is to return in ten days
for Christine, but after his de
parture she is captured, tried by
court-martial and sentenced to
die. Price arrives on the spot
and aso is captured. As Christine
is about to pay the penalty, the
winged legion appears and what
a climax follows! Gary Cooper
and Fay Wray are the featured
heads of an admirable cast.
On the same bill are the news,
a comedy, “Dog Days,” and a
color subject, “Sun and Moon
Sketches.”

“Galloping Ghosts” in !•’*
teresting mystery comedy an
nounced for March release by
Pathe,
Columbia • Holding
Doug Another
Week
The agile artist Fairbanks con
tinues his turn as “The Gaucho.”
at Loew’s Columbia this week,
carrying himself, to our mind, to
another rung on his ladder of
successful celluloid features. Fair
banks’ flair for Impish roles has
never been carried out more ef
fectively in any film than in his
current release.
As a bandit rival for the hand
of a wild village girl, who later
becomes a fair priestess of the
shrine, “The Gaucho” leads his
horde to maddening adventure
against the mailed fist of a dic
tator to seize the riches of a city
prospering at a shrine where
miracles of healing are done.
The inimitable bandit Fairbanks
falls heir to the spell of the
village lass and his romancing
lead him far afield into adven
ture. “The Gaucho” is captured,
but later escapes and his fearless
men, riding like madmen and
by the shrine girl, outwit the dic
tator and his villainous men to
save the girl and her padre pro
tector from execution.
There is no doubt of Fairbanks’
ability to entertain even the most
critical audience, and in this latest
spectacle we find him doing his
utmost to enhance his reputation
and salary check.
An “Our Gang" comedy is an
other feature of interest. While
we had bellfeved the kids were
losing form, their latest opus is in
stant proof that their originator,
Hal Roach, is still busy and look
ing in every nook and corner for
originals of the type and kind that
please discriminating audiences.
