AT QUEEN

Hot dogs! And what dogs! Hot
enough to scorch the hardwood
surface off any old dance floor are
the feet of Louise Fazenda. Clyde
Cook, Myrna 10y and William
Demarest, in PAY as You Enter"
the Warner Bros. farce-comedy
which comes to the Queen theater
today for a run of two days.
AS one of the mirthful sequences
of this comedy is the prize waltz
contest at the Garments Ball, it is
fortunate that out Of the above
mentioned quartet, three were for
merly professional dancers.
Clyde Cook, in the days when he
was the star comedian Of the Zieg-
field Follies, was known as one Of
the worlds foremost eccentric
dancers.
William Demarest for several
years vas a vaudeville headliner
as a dancing comedian. Myrna
Logs stage dancing is of the exc
tic type, and she abandoned a
promising career for wider fame as
a film actress. Louise Fazenda is
the only one of the four not of the
dancing profession, but in spite Of
her feigned awkwardness she is one
of the most graceful dancers of the
film colony.

The Banner Fight

The junior-senior banner fight
hangs low over our heads here in
senior high The juniors recently
exposed their infant banner to the
public eye. It's a different type
than was previously popular, being
pennant shaped and done in navy
blue and canary yellow. After that
things promptly began to happen to
inter-class friendships. The juniors
got a lot of kidding about "loud
colors," "eye smashes," etc, but ii
did not seem to dent them. Any
how, we seniors have got to hand
it to them for individuality. AT
present both banners hang in front
of the assembly.
During the banner fight, which
will soon start, the two classes will
hide each others banners. There
are a lot of rules governing hiding
places, time for hunting, etc, whose
sum and substance is fair play for
both parties. The class that finds
its banner first in certain speci-
fed time 1.-TWO weeks), gets its ban
ner hung in front of the assembly
for the year. If neither one finds
it, any of number of things might
happen. We will explain that in
case the juniors hide our banner
so we can not find it.-A Senior.
