RialtO Opens With
Captain of the Guard"

THE Rialto Theater, at Ninth and G
streets, will reopen, after having
been closed for some weeks, with John
Boles, in person, for Saturday and
Sunday, and his newest picture, Cap
tain of the Guard" in which he and
Laura La Plante are cast in two ex-
cellent roles, and in which the splendid
voice of Boles is heard in many beau
tiful numbers.
Captain of the Guard" was orig
inally made under title of La Mar
because many found vastly different
ways of nispronouncing the title. The
picture is romantic story of the ad-
Venturous life Of Rouget de Lisle, who
composed the French national anthem,
and his love for the gentle Marie, who
afterward became the flaming torch"
of the revolutionary armies in the
French revolution. 1t is the love of
these young people for each other and
the love of the French people for free
dom that inspires De Isle to write
La Marseillaise." The tremendous
power of the song sweeps the armies on
to victory, although the writer loses his
place at court and becomes an outcast
and hunted man.
Charles Wakefield Cadman wrote the
musical background for the piece. RoX
Rommell, former WaShingtonian and
at one time leader of the Rialto Thea
ter Symphony Orchestra, wrote the four
popular hits which Mr.. Boles sings in
the picture. These are For YOU" You,
You Alone" Maids on Parade" and
Can 1t Be?"
Besides Laura La plante there are In
the cast some 5000 persons. including
several screen favorites, such as Sam
| De GraSse, James Marcus, Lionel Bel
more, Stuart Holmes, Evelyn Hall.
Claude Fleming, Murdoch MacQuarrie,
George Hackathorne and Dewitt Jen-
nings.
This picture, rating as a spectacle"
was made by Universal on the lavish
scale of 1.-THE Hunchback of Notre
Dame" some five years ago.
In addition to the feature picture
there is The Evening Star Universal
Newspaper News Reel, with Graham
McNamee as announcer of events; a
comedy and cartoon. Ray Hart and
his Rialto Orchestra offer new musical
arrangements.

PEBE DANIELS and Ben Lyon team
II together in Radio Pictures talking
romance, Alias French Gertie," which
comes to the R-K-O Keith Saturday.
1t is their first joint appearance on the
screen and Miss Daniels first straight

talkies. The story was adapted from
The Chatterbox," a successful play
by Bayard WELLER, and presents Ben
Lyon as the smooth, light-flngered Jim
mie Hartigan.
Atlas French Gertie" is described as
dramatic inside picture of the society
racket" as practiced by smooth-work-
ing French" maids and their male ac-
completes. 1t shows the adventures OF
Gertie, always scheming and planning
successful coups on the rich, with the
aid of her accomplices, who suddenly
realize, after Jimmie is caught and sem
fenced to year in jail, that the penalty
is too great for the rewards When he
is released, however, she continues
the racket because of his insiStence,
but eventually prevails on him to quit
He attempts one last job in defiance of
her entreaties, which almost proves the
undoing Of both of them.
The talkie was produced under the
direction of George Archainbaud and
supporting players in the cast include
Robert O'Connor, Betty Pierce, John
Ince and Daisy Belmore.

George Whites scandals"
At Polls Theater Monday.

D EPLETE with original ideas, the an
N nouncement states, from a scenic,
costume and presentation standpoint,
George White will bring the latest edi-
ton of his celebrated Scandals" to
Polls Theater for a week next Monday
evening.
While infectious melodies and rip
pling humor always feature the Scan
dals." this years edition, it is claimed,
fairly overbubbles with hit songs and
rollicking comedy William K. Wells,
Lew Brown and George White have
brought a richly satiric touch to their
sketches, and Cliff Friend and George
White have kept pace with an original
touch in both lyrics and music.
This year Bottom Up" a fast-step-
ping dance that is not only colorful,
but has a definite idea behind it, is
an outstanding feature.
Mr.. White is said TO have thrown
tradition TO the proverbial winds and
has unearthed new talent for his revue.
The new cast, therefore, features, in
addition to Willie and Eugene Howard
the popular Frances Williams, Mitchell
and Durant, Evelyn Wilson, Marietta
the Abbott Specially Dancers, Carolyn
Nolte, Florence Robinson, Fred Lyon
James Carly, the Elm City -Four, the
Scott Sisters, Arthur Cardinal, Harry
Morrissey and a company Of so Scan
dals" beauties
Scenically, the new Scandals Is
said to excel in gorgeousness anything
heretofore sponsored by Mr.. White. He
has blended this with an original touch
in costume background that makes the
whole a thing Of beauty.

Al JoIsOn in Nanny"
At the Metropolitan.

AL JoLSON, home again, with new
"A song hits, will be seen and heard at
Warner Bros Metropolitan Theater the
week beginning Friday in his latest
Yitaphone success, Nanny"
Cast as minstrel trooper, Jolson is
said to rise to new dramatic heights IN
Nanny" but he is also prodigal with
his infectious comedy. This picture was
written especially for him, words and
music by Irving Berlin. In it Jolson
sings six new songs by the melody
master, Berlin, and also contributes
three old numbers, to which he i'm
parts life and soul with his individual
style of singing. The latter are Yes,
Sir, That's My Baby" st. Louis Blues
and Southland"
Jolson is supported in Nanny" by
an excellent cast. The romantic story
is close knit and fast moving, breaking
only to allow Jolson to sing his songs.
The minstrel scenes in the produc-
ton are lavishly mounted, and many OF
the big musical episodes are filmed in
the improved technicolor.
