Every city has it's haunted house, the scene of an early murder or a mysterious death. The spirit of the victim is claimed to walk on certain nights. Yet, has ghost ever hurt anyone, supposing there were such things, asks Hersholt.
 Of course, fiction has made lot of ghost stories. They have fasci- mated readers on down through his tory, first by word d-of-mouth and later through the printed word.
 It is the fear of ghosts and the unknown that motivates the vari- ous members of the cast of "13 Washington Square" once they are all in the house at this address which is supposedly vacant but &C., tually quite well populated,
 George Lewis, Helen Foster, zasu Pitts, Hersholt and Miss Joyce are the occupants, most of them un- known to the others. me cast also includes Helen Jerome Eddy, Jerry Gamble and Jack Mcdonald.

COMEDY BILL IS AT
 PALACE TONIGHT ONLY

By special request, Harold Teen" the bill that made such big hit at the Palace last Sunday, will be screened again at the Palace to- night only, two shows.
 Harold Teen is a delightful comedy of American youth, a First National Picture, directed by Mer- vyn LeRoy. The story is based on Carl Eds celebrated newspaper comic strip of the same name, ap- bearing daily in more than 300 newspapers, and it is not stretching a point to say that it is probably the fastest moving farce of the year.
 The title role of Harold is played by Arthur Lake, the juve- nile comedian who has been scor- ing repeatedly of late Mary Brian plays his "sweetie" Lillums, and Alice White is the high school vamp, Giggles. Others in the SUD- porting cast are Lucien Littlefield William Bakewell, Hedda Hopper, Lincoln Stedman and Ben Hall Harold Teen" is a Robert Kane production.

"SKEETS" GALLAGHER
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

Youths conceit and it's triumph from the theme of fast moving comedy of city life which is at the Coliseum tonight only. It is an FBO special taken from H. c. Wit wer's short story by Dudley Mur- phy and also directed by MT. Mur- phy. j
 Many a hick has arrived in New York convinced that the city and the world in general were waiting to see him perform. Some have been disillusioned and beaten, oth- CTS have succeeded, but all have been ragged. There's some high powered razzing in this story, but it doesn't stay one-sided very long and that is what makes it twice as funny as it might otherwise be.
 Alex is Vermont farmer boy in the beginning. He is convinced life holds. something for him be- sides feeding COWS. His city cousin has confidence in him, but her nus band, baseball manager, can't visualize anything in Alex's future except free meals The action be- gins when Alex reaches the Grand Central station. It continues all through Imaginable series of ad- ventures in riding academy, a de luxe hotel, department store, and concludes on a Long Island estate
 Richard "Skeets" Gallagher puts the farmer boy role over with 3 bang, and Albert Conti is a close second in the mirth production as the baseball manager Two femi- nine leads, one a beauty society girl and the other the charming wife of the baseball manager, are played by Patricia Avery and Ruth Dwyer, respectively.
