OVER GOLD DIGGERS"

Gold Diggers Of Broadway" will
be held over for the second week
starting today at the Apollo theater.
In brief, Gold Diggers of Broad
way is one of the most amusing
and gorgeous of entertainments ever
seen on either screen or stage.
It's appeal is universal; it sends
it's audiences away delighted and
happy, humming the tuneful strains
they have heard from the screen.
Never was dialogue more snappy,
pithy and humorous, nor delivered
with more skill. Roy Del Ruth's
direction is excellent and Larry
Ceballos has surpassed himself in
the stage ensemble.
Put Gold Diggers of Broadway
at the top of the list Of the screen
offerings that you really must see.
In the cast are Conway Tearle,
Nancy Wexford, Mich Lucas, Ann
Pennington, Lee Moran, Helen FOst-
er, Lilyan Eastman, Winnie Light
ner and many other well known
stage and screen stars. The usual
Vitaphone acts and the Fox Movie
tone news will complete the bill.

for that reason, ''let him who is

1t is up to public officials. Rev.
Shepherd thinks, to set aside GER

"Great time," he said to Huck
when they left the place, and in his
voice was admiration for man of
power.
Another thing In Hucks favor In
Harold's eyes was the fact that Huck
hadn't once made q remark that
could be construed as q lead to q per-
son he intended to victimize. Harold
called Mildred's warning ''imagina-

that night.
Huck had come up to Harold's

introduced Wall Street into the con-

appears as typical example Of the
modern girl, her costumes and per-

Il don't suppose you would ask

ment.
Il would not! Did you see any
thing Of Margola's bunch? They were
coming around to pick me up for the
Webley's dance"
Il Just got In" Harold told her.
They may be downstairs"
Pamela found her friends in the
grill. Later someone got raked over
the Goals for not having told her
they were waiting. There were q
dozen In the party, but Pamela got
Margola aside. and they planned to
separate two more and then give the
others the slip. Pamela never bore
down lightly on account Of expense.
And with Huck to foot the bills
there seemed no occasion to do so.
They had good seats and q sumptuous
supper. Huck was the perfect host, q
little older and more formal than his
guests, but Pamela saw that he in
terested Margola not little. "a.

PEELED to keep him. Nothing doing, !"
she declared when she heard Mar
COLA tell Huck she'd like to dance
with him. Hes promised not to
dance with anyone but me-"
And while the show was in prog
ress and the lights were dimmed she
let him hold his arm on the back Of
her chair, with the tips Of his fingers
touching her shoulder, without pull
ing away. Huck's petting was GER
tainly tame, she told herself, but q
wee voice whispered back that he
hadn't started yet.
Pamela turned her head to look ut
him and met his eyes full upon her
face. She could not read them. but
she knew that II she could she
wouldn't have found their message
tame.
Great idea, reyiytng the roof gar
den show. isn't it2" she said lamely.
Are you having q good timer"
Huck asked in return. Like it?"
Pamela nodded. The show was good
but 1t meant nothing as compared to
the thrill she was experiencing
through the knowledge that this man
beside her. was falling 80 hard he'd
got to the point Of trembling over her
opinion Of his efforts to entertain
her. Y'.'. s-a,.s =:
And when next they danced to-
gether and Huck held her closer she
dropped her head on his shoulder and
told herself she might be playing witt,
