Patriot" at the Bradley on Tues.
 day and Wednesday

Suspense-like that of great detec- tive story-marks the unfolding of Emil Jannings' latest starring pie ture, "The Patriot" which Ernst Lubitsch directed for Paramount.
 Plotting against an Emperor who boasted that every man in his king dom was under the direct surveil- lance of the police is the dangerous and exciting work which falls to the lot of Lewis Stone, who, with Flor ence Vidor, plays opposite Jannings in this picture.
 From the opening shot, plot. coun- ter-plot, intrigue and near discovery keep the audience in sympathetic ter TOT.
 Laid in the court of the Czar Paul the First of Russia, "The Patriot brings a gorgeousness of production as background for an enthralling story, which has rarely been viewed on local screen. Despite the fact that the audience is always conscious of an enormous palace, great numbers of soldiers, peasantry and plains of Russia, attention is never once detracted from the handful of people used Co tell an en- crossing and fascinating story.

 STIRS HOLLYWOOD
"Stsrdom Overnight" Is Reality For Skeptieai Extras in
 Movie Capital

''Stardom overnightw There used to be q wealth of sardonic hnmor in that phrase for the hundreds of Hollywood extras struggling to make the motion picture grade. But no more. Charles tBuddy) Rogers has made the phrase a reality.
 In 1925, Rogers was student at the University of Kansas. In Nov ember of the same year, recommend ed by the theatre manager in his home town, Olathe, Kansas, he came to the Paramount Picture school in New York. He was one of thousands trying to matriculate.
 He graduated, however, and took the leading role in the picture made by the class, Fascinating Youth" Then he was hurried west to play with w. c. Fields in "So's Your Old Man" In 1927, he was selected to play the coveted lead in the Will liam Wellman masterpiece, Wings, !" and then to play opposite Mary Pick ford in My Best Girl" The leading role in "Abie's Irish Rose" followed and Paramount starred him.
 "Stardom overnight" In 1928, less than three years after he left his home in olathe, Kansas, to enter the moving picture school, he was a Paramount star and his first starring picture, Varsity" made on the campus of Princeton university has been booked for showing at the Brld- ley theatre on Friday and Saturday and in it Rogers has a role that gives him ample opportunity to display the talents which made ''stardom over night" a reality for him.

THRILLS GALORE SEEN IN

Star Seen as Detective in While
 the City Sleeps" His Newess Sue

While the City Sleeps" Lon Chan ey's latest contribution to the screen at the Bradley Theatre Sunday and Monday, will startle even those Chan ey fans who are accustomed to almost any surprise in the work of the ''man of a thousand faees"
 In the new Metro-G -Goldwyn- Mayer underworld drama Chaney is seen as a plainclothes detective, in a vivid battle against a horde of gangsters, on one side, and romantic love af- fair on the other. He veers from hard boiled Nemesis of the crime ele- ment to a tender lover; his great sacrifice at the close of the dramatic story is tempered with prospects of another sensational adventure in the
