 DOLORES COSTELLO

Dolores Costello, one of the great est of the screens reigning stars, will be presented by Warner Bros, at the Bradley Theatre on Friday and Saturday when the talented and ailuring actress will be seen in "Tenderloin."

SHOW PEOPLE" UNIQUE
 COMEDY OF FILM LIFE
New Co-.,srr;ns Picture of Marion Davies and William Haines is Hilariously Amusing En-
 tertainment

With five of the cleverest come dians in Hollywood in the cast and with many famous stars, including Charlie Chaplin, Norma Talmadge, William s. Hart and Douglas Fair banks playing themselves, as atmos- phere. the new Marion Davies Will liam Haines eo-starring picture "Show People" playing at the Brad ley Theatre Sunday and Monday, is. thus far, the most unique comedy of the season.
 Miss Davies role Of the little extra girl who comes to Hollywood and at tains sudden stardom offers her an ex- cellent opportunity not only to sati- rize her friends and acquaintanees and poke gentle fun at Hollywood but to develop an entirely hew screen character.
 Haines is ideal as the slapstick ar tist who graduates from the comedy lots in time to save Peggy" the her oine. from the fate of the ''up-stage" actress.
 Polly Moran finds herself up against stiff competition with the two leads, but plays her role as Miss Davies maid in her ''ritzy" days, in her usual hilarious manner.
 Dell Henderson and Paul Ralli, are also we'll east.

BURGLARS ENTER
 FRINK'S SIGN SHOP
Steal Portable Typewriter and Two Dollars Worth of
 Postage Stamps
Enter Through Rear Window After
 Breaking Glass

Frink's' Sign shop. Lee street, in a basement room of the Seder Build ing, was entered sometime Satur- day night and portable typewriter and two dollars worth of stamps stol- on. The burglary was discovered by the proprietor, Nelson Brink, when he entered his stop. Sunday.
 Entrance was gained to the shop hv breaking out the glass m rear window. It is not known whether or not more than one person was con- cerned in the break. Paint brushes and material were found scattered about.
 Plan Misearries
 At first 1t was thought that no- thing had been stolen and Mir. Frink Frink SO reported to the police. This led to the belief that whoever enter ed the shop believed that he could find his way through cellar doors to come of the stores on the street floor. Later it was discovered that the type vriter and stamps were missing and the police came to the conclusion that this was the extent of the intent of the burglars. At least one store pro prietor in the building believes that burglary on a larger scale had been planned but was frustrated when the burglars discovered that they could not enter any of the stores through the paint shop. There is an entrance to long corridor conecting with the store cellars just east of the entrance to the paint shop. There were no signs of this entrance having been tempered with.
