VIII Rogers

While one has a little spare time
on his hands he might use some OF
it in wondering how VIII Rogers,
ex-mayor of Beverley Hills and a
lot of other things, can say such
uproariously funny things.
Yesterday afternoon Rogers stood
before a number of people, all
gathered at the Armory, and told
them Just what was the matter with
politics, and gave every one there
the "lowdown" on all the candi-
dates that might be expected to
run for President.
One can't say that the talk was
educational, for it was also enter
tainment, and yet there was an
educational value to it. Rogers took
I'D the pertinent questions OF the
day. and made you think Of them
while you were being amused. He
talked on nearly everything but the
sex question, and Mr.. Rogers init
mated that he was going to write
a book about that when he learned
something about it.
Nearing the end Of his talk the
unofficial ambassador to Europe
told of several intimacies with
Colonel Lindbergh, both in Mexico
and California. Among other things
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-04-23

along with advice to girls and wom-
en-. was a straw vote on who the
public favored for President. Mr..
Rogers, however, kept from making
any direct statement as to whom
he was to support.
He said that he was here to find
the leak and not to fix it. Al Smith
and President Coolidge came in for
consideration. Rogers told the way
that the election would probably
turn out, and he also tried TO eX-
plain what the famous word
choose" meant. Any thing OF
nothing was his summing up.
Rogers even insisted that when
he was at Purdue he was not only
presented with a degree but was
pledged to one Of the sororities
there. Schools and colleges and the
men connected with them came to
his mill in the form Of grist.
While the "congressman-at-
large" said some things that might
have offended, said by anyone else.
it was the spirit of fun and tiokeled
each ones vanity in a way when
he turned his barrage in another
direction to include ones neighbor
Rogers spent most of his time
talking on politics with diversions
now and then onto something else.
He is a comedian extraordinary
and an interesting lecturer. He in
sisted that a comedian entertains
and a lecturer annOys. So he said
that he would give a lecture.

sells the idea. The thing 7 like
about Pardo is that he always in
dictates the fun around the corner,
although his song seems sad. That
is artistry. No doubt about it. The
way that Pardo gets Hughey Clark
on the stage is clever. This man
Clark is a heavyweight, but he has
tons of ability. He knows how to
put over a song and he dashes up
o sort with jazzy pepper to that
stage of the game that nothing
matters. This man knows just how
far to go. He and Pardo stopped
the show when was present.
The Dean Brothers are dancers.
They are good. They go in for some
hoof1ng without music, which proves
that they know how to work their
feet. Then there are two girls who
ae described by Pardo as "co-eds,"
meaning-as Pardo says-girls who
go to a university and learn nothing
whatsoever. They are good. The
show has the services of Kohn and
Depinto, who play the accordian
and violin. The sixteen Circle
Comets do the dancing.
Orville Rennie, tenor, is the chief
male singer. He has the use of the
dancing girls. A pretty stage pic
ture. The producing staff at the
Circle knows its business when it
comes to developing a song on the
stage.
Dave Silverman, guest conductor
who became one of the most talked
of men in town because of his SEN
sational success with the Circle

is a sensationalist to me in her
movie story, but she is a clever
woman. She knows how to take the

day, tantalize them up with theat-
rical attire and make a movie flap

DOdG.
AS the story progresses the two
are thrown together much and
Mary falls in love with the captain.
1t turns out that the captain is one
of the service and the real offended
poses as an operator.
Mary Blake is taken by Dorothy
Revier, and some good work is done
by her. Jack Holt has the part of
the captain. Norman Trever is in
the cast.
The other picture is 1.-The Wife's
Relation" 1t is the story Of an in
ventor who, through an accident,
discovers a paint much like a we'll
known auto paint. He has married
the daughter of very wealthy auto
manufacturer and wants to sell the
paint to him. Before the discovery
he has married the manufacturer
daughter.
Mr.. Dodd, the auto man, thinking
that his son-in-law is after his mon
ey, makes trip from Florida to see
about the daughter, who had run
away to keep from having to marry
the man who owned the home that
her husband was the caretaker for.
There are many funny situations
in the comedy. Ben Turpin is in
the cast as Rodney st. Clair and is
the cook. Another friend of Tom
Powers" the chemist and husband
of Patricia, takes the part of a maid
when the girls folks arrive.
Patricia is played by Shirley
Mason. She does some good COM
edy work. Castor Glass has the
part Of Tom Powers. He is good.
Flora Finch is the girls mother and
Lionel Belmore the father. Belmore
is very good as the old father.

form of passion. A violent passion
that quickly subsidies, and Marianne
trys to correct the mistake she has
made.
Marianne is disoWned by her
mother, a foolish woman who is a
parasite of the French capitol. You
are not told whether Marianne was
a child of a passing love or not, but
the picture rather leads you to be-
lieve that to be the case. Marianne
is brought from Brittany, where
she has been living on a farm, as
a present to her mother on one Of
her birthdays.
Cast out, she is found by Lucien
Dorel. Lucien loves her and puts
her in the care Of his aunt. After
some time, Lucien, who is a soldier,
deserts his regiment so that he
won't have to leave Marianne. AS
time goes on the girl gets a position
as an actress and makes good.
Lucien is serving a sentence in the
French prison for stealing. But in
the end Marianne is lost to the stage
and, finally starving, she trys to
kill herself. Lucien goes to her and
they live happily on a little farm
In this picture Greta Carlo does
some mighty fine work. Her pas
sion is accentuated by her makeup,
which is simplicity itself most of
the time. Her Characterization is
complete. Lars Hanson has the
part as Lucien, the soldier. Out
side of making very attentive
Frenchman, his work was not eX-
traordinary, but is good.
Lowell Sherman is the producer
of the plays that Marianne is the
star in. Polly Moran has the part
as the aunt of Lucien. They both
were good.
On the stage was "Pagoda Land"
There were three acts that struck
me as good. Irene Taylor, who is
"blues" singer. She sang I'm a
Good Gal and 1 Amt Got Nobody"
and another song. She has the
T1S1J kl1lQ VI d NO1C6. 1IlG Odll-
fornia Humming Birds" with Adler,
We'll and Hermann, were good with
some novelty and comedy songs.
They had several songs that were
good and especially one about air
planes.
The third act was that of Gus
Mulcay's. This man plays the mouth
organ in a real "blues" style. Wal
lace and Capple are eccentric
dancers and they sing a comedy
number or two. The big chorus
number was the dance of the
Chinese dragon. Quite a spectacu-
lar thing and well done. Charlie
Davis and his band feature "As
Long as Live" Dick Powell sings
the chorus and there is a solo with
the violins and the cello.

DOlOreS costello they can act. In
the first place, "Tenderloin" is a
corking good underworld story with
a new way of presenting it. 1t is
one of the strongest and best con-
structed underworld movies thai
has ever graced the screen. With
the exception of the talking part,
there is Vitaphone orchestral &C
compartment. I believe that the
less you know about the story OF
"Tenderloin" the better time you
are going to have. I know l
wouldn't have wanted somebody to
spoil my fun by tipping me OIL to
the key of the story. I know this,
that you will have grand and
glorious time seeing "Tenderloln"
because it is powerful theater.
After seeing and hearing this one
I am sure that you will agree with
me that the day of the talking
movie has actually arrived.
There is another feature on the
Apollo's new policy program that
is marvellous for many reasons. 1t
is the Movietone, or I might call 1t
the talking news reel. Yesterday
when I was at the Apollo heard
a more than capacity house cheer
Colonel Lindbergh as he received
honors from President Coolidge just
as if they had actually been on the
scene.
This Movietone gives You
chance to study three people-Presi-
dent Coolidge, Mrs. Coolidge and
Colonel Lindbergh on Lindbergh S
arrival in Washington, D. c., after
his fight to Europe. While seeing
and hearing this Movietone I was
thrilled as I seldom am in the the
alter. Here is a new chapter in
movie news reels, and it is a most
interesting chapter.
It was interesting to see the way
that Fred Ardath and his company
in a little playlet talked it to sue
cess on Vitaphone. Frank Richard
son, a blues singer, is the other
Vitaphone subject.
Under the new policy at the
Apollo it looks like wonderful talk
ing days,

ASKING A QUESTION
AND FINDING AN ANSWER

Just what is this big thing that
makes divinity? Is it as some would
have us believe, greatness, or is it
something really bigger? Religion
tells us that it is love. And reli-
gion is one of the oldest forms Of
philosophy.
Then to be divine, one must be
capable Of an extra large amount Of
love. Each person is divine in a
sphere, and as the amount of love
increases then the sphere increases.

he never forgot his Ramon NOVarfo
Kathie. One reason that the movie
studio did not damage "The Stu
dent Prince" is that Ernst Lubitsch
directed it. Here is a man who
knows his historical old European
atmosphere, and above all he knows
how to photograph romance as few
directors know. Then he had two
good leads-Ramon Novarro as the
Prince and Norma Shearer as Ka-
THE. Both yield to the direction Of
the director. Both have sympa-
thetic understanding of their parts
and they cause both characters to
become very much alive. Here are
two love birds who will make you
both smile and cry. There is beauty
in the acting Of both.
From a Photographic standpoint,
THE Student Prince" is one Of real
beauty. And the supporting cast
seems to have a fine regard for the
characters Of state that they play.
Even the Heidelberg students have
been wisely and carefully selected.
They look like the real article. The
movie going world is going to like
this one.
