MIA AIRLtHES mstNoe* AT THE Barrymore, Lombard Star in Laugh Drama The laugh-filled drama of a girl who would rather lie than eat, married to the most scrupulously hoiiMt man In the world, comes to the Bismarck Theatre when Paramount's "True Confession," co-starring Carole Lom bard, Fred MacMurray and John Barrymore, opens today. "True Confession," adapted from the famous French play, "Mon Crime," by Louis Verneuil and Georges Berr, features Una Merkel, Bdgar Kennedy, Lynne Overman, Frits Feld, John T. Murray, Porter Hall, William Collier, Sr. and Tommy Dugan in sup port of the three stars. The story Introduces Carole Lom bard as the girl who's the biggest nat ural-born liar In the world, married to MacMurray, a struggling young lawyer. In order to get him some publicity which might help his bust ness along. Miss Lombard confesses to a murder which she has not com mitted, and on MacMurray's plea of velf-defense, he gets her an acquittal. Business improves with MacMurray, just as his wife had figured, but sud denly a new complication arises, when John Barrymore, an eccentric dere lict shows up and attempts to Mack mail Miss Lombard by threatening to tell her husband that she lied to him, because she really did not commit the murder. Motor SIDE GLANCES By George Clark "We eat out once a week just to give the wife a rest." MOVIES U. S. Navy Assisted In Producing Picture All the resources of the United States navy were loaned, it is said, to Warner Bros, for the production of a thrilling melodrama called "Submarine D-l," which opens today at the Capitol theater and is an nounced as the most stirring and au thentic film ever made with a "tin fish"—as the gobs Irreverently term an undersea boat—as its subject. The movie folk journeyed to New port, R. L, to make part of it, down to Cocas Coco in the Panama Canal Zone for another, and then to San Diego for a lot more. One of the most modem of sub marines, the real D-l (also known the Dolphin) was used for the pic ture. Battleships, cruisers, destroyers and the like, by the score, are to be seen in Its action. Pat O'Brien and George Brent are co-starred, and in one of the leading supporting roles is the sensational young newcomer, Wayne ("Kid Gala bad") Morris. Other notables in the cast include Doris Weston, Rank McHugh, Ronald Reagan, Henry O'Neill and Regis Toomey. In 1835, revenues received by Amer ican Class 1 railroads for the trans portation of express traffic amounted to $53,328,422, In comparison to the 1834 figure Of $54,013,025.
