EMBASSY THEATER

Sweet Mama" Alice Whites latest First National and Nitaphone picture. is to head the bill at the Embassy theater today.
 An especially fine cast supports the blonde star in her part dramatic, part dancing and singing role, a type of part which, by the way, is prov ing so popular for her that the pro- ducers are continuing it,
 David Manners, sensational young Broadway stage star who made a film hit in Journeys End" and then signed a long term contract with First National, plays opposite Miss White in Sweet Mama Kenneth Thomson plays one of the best roles in which he has appeared in talking pictures as a smooth, different vil- lain: and other favorites such as Rita Flynn and Lee Moran appear.
 The story presents a new slant on cafe life and gangsters' goings- on and proves highly dramatic. The dancing and singing is purely in- cidental, but so enjoyable that It | leaves a taste for more. Edward Cline directed the picture.
 A recent articles on tropical fish ing by Clifford Pinchot, appearing 1 in an issue of a national magazine, ! has been of great comfort to off cials of Metro GoldUyn- Mayer, pro- ] ducers of The Sea Bat a marine melodrama now playing at the En- ! bassy theater today.

AT THE PALACE

Dealing in frank and amazingly dramatic fashion with a much talked of subject. a tremendously gripping talking picture, opened today at the Palace theater for a two day run. Titled Her Unborn Child,' it is a faithful and vivid talking pcturiza- : tion of the sensationally successful play which toured the length and breadth of this country for several years, arousing favorable comment from press. pulpit and public during it's long stage career.
 The ptless. revealing story of "a boy and girl in love, forgetting every thing else' has been woven into a powerfully dramatic talkie The vari- ous reactions of the principal char acters in this talking picture furnish one of the most diverting and inter esting screen entertainments ever presented.
 Her Unborn Child" in point of subject matter, dialog, situations and dramatic intensity is completely different talking picture and will undoubtedly arouse again much comment on the part of the patrons of the Palace theater where it is now on view. On account of some of the delicate scenes that this pie ture holds. we do not recommend it for children. Added attraction, Spring is Here"
