Uncle Toms Cabin" has come tc
the screen as play within play in
Little Eva Escends," the latest Gar.

You'd recognition of the play, but the
sort of Uncle Tom" that almost ev-
erybody knows. 1t isn't as unpre-

the thrill of the historic melodrama
preserved and made more appealing
by the addition of humorous story
OF transforming. 1t is an artistical-
ly improved one-night stand "Uncle
Tom;" the 'Uncle Tom" as presented
BY hundreds of companies uncounted
thousands of times at the local opera
houses throughout the country.
Little Eva Ascends" appeared
first as a short story by Thomas
Beer in The Saturday Evening Post. |
It was produced by George D. Baker
Tor 81 (Arthur Sawyer and Herbert
Iubin) and is released by Metro.
The story concerns a 16-year-oh
10Y, Roy st. George, whose mother
heads a transforming theatrical
ompnay. She started Roy playing
little Eva in "Uncle Tom" when he
Jas 10 years old, and he is still at it

Peking, May 3.-The Fengtiel
army under General Chang Tso-Lir
has, for the moment at least, sue.
cessfully withstood the drive or
Changsintien, and stopped General
WI Pei-Fu's movement toward Pc
king. The cost, however, has been
heavy, and ChangsiItien is filled
with wounded, many of whom are
dying for lack of medical attention.
While Chang has succeeded in this
section, there has been no apparent
advantage of consequence for either
side in the general fighting along the
100-mile front from her to Tientsin,
and both commanders are rushing up
achievements in preparation for
decisive action.
General Changes communications
are threatened both front and rear,
for WI has thrown 10000 troops
against his right center in an effort
to cut the Peking- Tientsin railway,
while Admiral Tu Shih-Kwei has no
titled the Marking consular body of
his intention to cut the railway con-
meeting the Picking Eentsin road
with Mukden, General Changes base.
This railway is within the range of
naval guns at Chinwangtao. l.
At the eastern end Of the battle
front, General WI is marching 90
900 troops toward Machang, one of
the Fengtieners' strongholds, where
heavy fighting has occurred for three
days.
Meanwhile word comes through
Shanghai that Sun Vat Sen, presi-
dent of the southern government, is
preparing to send aid to Chang Tso-
Lin. He will strike at the psychology {
