after his two-day visit to Montana
was that everything appeared all
right.
Wheeler Shares Honor
The governor said he had received
kilograms from all over the country
expressing approval of the way in
which he presented the question of
party responsibility in his Helena
speech, and that ne had received
more congratulatory messages on his
Oklahoma City address than any he
had made.
Senator Wheeler. Democrat. Mon

inee as far as st. Paul, and who
shared honors with him in his home
town of Butte yesterday afternoon

lican, Nebraska, was keeping so low
in this campaign" the Montana SEN
ator. who is up for reelection this
year, replied that il was because 'he
does not approve or Hoover"
Texas Lad Speaks
After the interview, Gov. Smith re-
turned to his private car. but came
back a little later to chat with the
newspapermen. Before he sought Sc
c~lusion again, 15-year-old Milburn
McCarty, senate page from Eastland.
Texas, and the governors personal
page IN his stumping tour, was pre-
vailed upon to make the pro-Smith
campaign speech he delivered in New

a Dig hand from the crowd and per-
sonal handshake from the governor
himself.

APOLLO HOLDS
"TENDERLOIN" OVER

With its star, Dolores Costello,
and us principal players speaking
lines in several Of its big scenes, its
battles between the police and
organized criminals, its dramatic
situations and its moments Of
tender romance, the first of the
talking picture dramas, Tender
loin," will be held over for another
week at the Apollo.
"Tenderloin" is a story Of New
York's East Side. Miss Costello has
the role of Rose Shannon, a cabaret
entertainer, who, through a strange
chain Of circumstances, becomes
enmeshed in the tolls Of the law
and at the same time is sought by
desperate band of crooks who be-
lieve that she has outwitted them
in procuring the proceeds Of a
daring bank robbery-a bag con-
tanning s50,0OO
Rose is in love with one Of the
crooks, youth portrayed by Conrad
Nagel. When he perceives that
the girl is ION the square, he de-
termines to go straight" that he
may merit her affections, and when
the time comes to do so he is not
slow to endanger his life for her
protection.
The mystery of the missing
money is not solved until almost
the very final moment of the pic
lures climax, and then it is a
genuine surprise.
Perhaps one Of the most impress
sive scenes in "Tenderloin" is that
in which the police give Rose the
third degree" 1t is in this scene
that the spoken word is used
throughout by all the players.
In the cast are Mitchell Lewis,
Pat Martigan, Evelyn Pierce, Geor-
gle Stone, Dan Wolheim and DorO-
thy Vernon. 'Tenderloin" was di-
rected by Michael Curtiz and was
adapted from a story by Melville

CLANCY IN CLOWN
ROLE AT LOEW'S PALACE

Human hands are more dramatic
than the eye, So believes Herbert
Brenon, director who, in filming
Lon Chaney's latest picture, Laugh,
Clown, Laugh which opens today
at Loew's Palace, passed more time
in directing the hands of his player
than in any other phase of the pic
ture
"The human hands," he says,
Can tell any story perfectly and,
conversely, mar even the finest
piece of acting. For instance, a
player in an emotional scene may
act to perfection, and wiggle one
little finger, and the attention of
the audience can focus on this
wiggling digit and the whole scene
is ruined
In one of the scenes Loretta
Young, the heroine, had to stretch
her hands to CLANCY, playing the
clown in The drama. 1t had to be
rehearsed fully two hours to get the
hands right.
Incidently Brenon holds that
CLANCY has the most expressive
hands of any actor on stage or
screen as he says CLANCY can speak
volumes with his hands.

Most aWkWardnesS on stage or

just as bashful boy doesn't know
what to do with them, so the actor
may create the same impression I'M

Brenon's new production is a
drama of life behind the scenes of

play of the same name, in which
Lionel Barrymore plays the role.
