The Conner Twins, two girls, sing

Other include Tyler, Mason, Healy

Teddy Joyce makes his biggest hit
when dancing. He is just a show
man when directing his orchestra
on the stage. To my way of think
ing Joyce is making d serious mis-
take in trying to force the audience
to applaud acts when he applauds.
He loses a lot of time and slows up
seriously the action of the presenta-
ton. He should realize that it is
dangerous to force actors to make
curtain talks. The audience is there
to see a show and not to hear actors

and the audience has been to them
Joyce can dance and he goes in for
sympathetic violin playing but he

has healing powers through a mir
acle years ago.
Velez is a wild little mountain
character in this story and she sure
loves her man. She would fight an
elephant if she thought said ele-
plant was making up to Doug. And
when other women became foolish
over her man, Lupe Velez just
clouded up and waged an awful bat
tie Then she turns on Doug and
gives him dose of the same medi-
cine. This Velez girl is a new
conner to the scene and long be-
fore 1.-THE Gaucho" landed on the
Palace screen, we had heard a lot
about Miss Velez. She is a fight
ing edition of Clara Bow, the best
way can picture her to you. She
is fighter, regular cat when she
wants to be. She is athletic and
she takes some terrible falls. She
doesn't seem to be afraid to take any
chances. Of course this picture has
made her. 1 take it that it will not
be long before she is featured and
then star. She seems to have the
markings that stars are made of.
In 1.-THE Gaucho," Fairbanks has
another leading characterize good
girl, the miracle worker, at the
shrine. 1t is through this girl that
a miracle is brought about that pre-
vents him from becoming a victim
of the black plague. This part of
the story is rather unpleasant but
it does give the picture several high
dramatic spots.
The Gaucho is a South American
cowboy who turns bandit but always
helps the poor people. He has a
chance to defend the people when
a bad man takes over by force the
government of a little state.
Doug is again the athletic person,
having many walls to scale as we'll
as houses and roofs. The picture is
Rlll Of action and Doug shows up in
fine form. Just the sort of picture
that you expect from Doug although
it is very dramatic and emotional
in spots. But the romance and the
action Is there. A cattle stampede
has been marvelouSly handled to
give the picture big climax.

the Condemned" were not in this
flying unit because of patriotism
but rather because the police were
after them or they wanted to for
get sad and miserable experience.
The first part of the movie intro
duces you TO the real character of
some of the men before they join
this legion which generally resulted
in death for all of its members. The
job of these flierS was to drop spies
behind the enemy lines. When
captured it was death for all. These
men we're brave and they faced the
firing squad of the enemy when
caught without any fear of death.
1t is the wonderful handling of such
elements in war that makes this
movie so vastly different from most
of the war movies.
have already been asked if 1.-THE
Legion of The Condemned" is better
than Wings" Here are two
pictures, although concerned with
the airplane as an instrument of
death in war, and yet they are en-
tirely different. You have theater,
thrilling and powerful, in THE
Legion of the Condemned" You
have the fact of aerial warfare in
wings" touched up with the
theater of entertainment
There are many characters in this
movie that will interest you as types
of men, often cruel, but always
seeking death to forget. The chief
character is Gale Price, who when
war broke out, was a newspaper re-
porter in Washington. He was in
love with a beautiful society girl
One night at an official ball, Gale
discovers that his sweetheart is in
drunken state with a German at
tache.
This drives him to war and he
joins this strange flying unit in
France. He is sour on the world and
all women. He wants an air job
that will result in death. So gets
a command to drop a spy behind
the enemy lines.
And guess who the spy was-the
girl he loved in Washington. Then
he realizes his mistake. He pilots
her behind the lines. The picture
becomes powerful from a suspense
standpoint while we are waiting to
see whether he can fly back in ten
days for his sweetheart.
In the meantime, the girl has
been caught as spy and the enemy
learns that French plane is to call
for her. SO they arrange a trap

brings quick relief-often in
a few hours-from a head
cold, cough or chest cold, yet
is inexpensive, free from
harmful drugs and pleasant to
take.
Test cases of the hospital
physicians (shoWn elsewhere
on this page) record the fact
that Ayers Cherry Pectoral
has a unique double action
which is responsible for the
quickness Of relief.
You feel its comforting,
healing warmth as it pene-
trates through and through
the irritated Innings of the
throat, chest and bronchial
tubes. Then it is quickly alb
sorbed by the system, reach
ing every part of the cold con-
geSted area.
This stops coughing almost
instantly! In a few hours it
checks phlegm, heals irrita-
ton, helps allay the feverish,
"grippy" feeling and drives
out the cold from the nose
passages, throat and brOn-
chial Tubes. And doctors es-
pecially recommend it for
home use because the medi-
cine is as harmless as the pur-
est food-ideal for children
and old folks in the family.
Just a few pleasant spoonfuls of
Cherry Pectoral now and you'll feel
like a different person tomorrow.
Simply follow the hospital direc-
tions that come with each bottle.

FlOnzaley
Quartet in
Fine Form
Famous Organization Gives
Wonderful Con-
cert.

Sadness and trouble are not the
only. things that bring tears to
your eyes.
Beauty can do the same thing
and 1 admit right now that l can
testify to that.
There was so much commanding
beauty in the way the Flonzaley
Quartet played DohnanyS Quartet
in D flat major" yesterday afternoon
at the Academy of Music that my
eyes became moist and I felt like
crying.
You may say that is silly and that
old age or something is catching up
with me but admit the fact with
out any trace of shame.
When four men can capture the
stately beauty of composition as
the Flonzaley Quartet did yesterday
afternoon and make it a spiritual
thing of such great beauty that one
wants to cry, then it is time to
admit the articitic supremacy of
this organization.
OF course there is majesty. very
nearly a message of the soul, in this
work of Dohnanyi. 1t tells moving
story to me of sweet moving pathoS.
1t requires great skill to play this
composition and the Flonzaleys
never exhibited better individual
and ensemble expression than while
playing this quartet.
Mozart's Quartet IN D minor"
opened the program and this
charming creation with its Menuetto
movement acted as tonic of charm
upon the audience.
Lovely indeed was the playing of
Schubert'S Quartet Satz" in G
minor and Hugo Volts "Italienische
Serenade" resulted in such a storm
of applause that an encore was
necessary
Here is the perfect playing quartet
if one exists. Never have I seen the
members of this quartet respond
with such unified spirit of artistry
as they did yesterday afternoon.
The quartet as usual was
presented by the Indianapolis
Maennerchor. (Reviewed by w. D.
Hickman)

TOOK DOCTORS ADVICE
GOLD GONE NEXT DAY

BY choosing the hoSpital-certified
method which is now being recon-
mended so extensively by physicians,
vast numbers of Indianapolis people
have found that it is no longer
necessary to let cold make a per-
son feel miserable or bring fear of
pneumonia. For this certified remedy
is pleasant to take, druggists say,
and brings quick, sure relief.

kept from his office several days by
severe cold which nothing seemed to

double strength doses Of Ayers Cherry

Finally Spike" finds this man,
who is known as Salami, and in
trying to fight out their difference
they become close friends. "Salami"
tries to tell Spike" that the girl

has done a good piece of work here,
although the role is a characterize
ton.
"Salami" IS played by Francis
Macdonald. He stands out in the

McLaglen. The part of "Salami" is
we'll done and is not one whit less
good than that of Spike" These

This part is not large. but Miss

the cause of the dissension between

it has been done so we'll that there
is no fault to find. 1t is truly a

You probably will not run up
against more powerful theater in

An overdraWn idea, but it gets
laughs. Richard Arlen is cast as
our Romeo-hero fighter. He is a
good choice. He knows how to ride
a horse and can put up a manly
scrap when he faces the villains. He
has a number of good fight scenes.
Mary Brian has the sweetheart role,
and she looks cute in her old-faSh-
Toned costumes.

many melodramatic situations and
he permits his actors to be "meller''
