VIEW MUSICAL COMEDY WILL OPEN TUESDAY NIGHT
KANE GOALING
CUSTOMERS
AT EARLE

1t Is no news to the movie
public now that the scintillating
Helen Kane, one Of the sundry
young women who the whoopee
age offers as q successor to
Frances White, is exhibiting her
incisive and ingratiatingly risque
vocaliSm at the Earle this week,
and there is no news also In the
fact that she is doing the job
which Nick Lucas did so effici-
emily just in advance OF her,
that is, bringing real JOY TO the
box office.
Miss Kane, known to radio
and screen initiates, as the
"boop-doop-a-doop" girl, sings a
group Of topical songs in a sub
deb treble and with a school
girlish double entendre that
strikes a real note Of comedy.
The same songs, no more pre-
tentious than the That's My
Weakness Now" school, are COM
monplace enough when done by
less than a real artist, such as
Miss Kane is; but they provide
high-powered entertainment in
her hands. There is no question
that she is sustaining the 'cpu-
tation which preceded her.
The feature screen play Of the
week, Hello Sister" featul ing
Olive Borden and Lloyd Hughes,
is so unpretending and incon.
sequental as to be entirely over,
shadowed by Miss Kane. II
tells a rather hackneyed, tale of
an heiress-flapper who. to clinch
her bequest of a million from her
grandfather, has to give up Gig
arettes, night clubs, gin. lip
sticks. and other adjuncts Of
modernistic femininty for GiX
months. She is even forced to
go into the church, and it is In
this quixotic idea that most OF
the comedy is grooved. Some OF
it gets over and some Of l.
doesn't.
Miss Borden. however, is
charming. the recording dope fol
the play is far above the aver
age. and the narrative is not
jumpy or diffuSed. It is just q
simple story written by a woman
magaZiniSt, yes, it is quite oh
viously by a woman. The othel

IN "ROGUE SONG"

deserves the title Americas S
greatest baritone" and he is an
actor as well.
You may not know it, but long
before Tibbett ever thought he
would be an opera singer, he per-
fected himself as a Shakespearean
actor and the combination o.
these two talents ca:lieS The
Rogue Song" right up front as
the years big picture thrill.
Mr.. Tibbett portrays Yegor,
chieftain of a bandit tribe III
Russia. Chance causes him to
fall in love with a beautiful prin-
cess, whom he later discovers IS
the sister of the man who ruined
his own sister. To avenge the
family honor he murders the
prince and in wrath kidnaps the
princess He is later delivered TO
his enemies and is punished
severely.
Without Mr.. Tibbett the presen-
tation would have been inSigniti-
cant. but when you hear him
singing the lovely gypsy melodies
that thread through the story
based on Gypsy Love" you will
gladly contribute to the universal
praise.
Lionel Barrymore directed this
lavish technicolor pr o d u c t l o n
which boasts several Colorful bal
let sceneS and excellent dramati-
zation. It seems, however. that
the comedy ele-..ent could well
have been scrapped. 1t doesn't
blend we'll with the general theme
and more often breaks in awk-
wardly.
Catherine Dale Owen, as Primo
ess Vera, looks the part to perfec-
ton and while her role does not
call for much acting, she grace
fully adds to the picture In the
countless moments, when our
dashing baritone is filling every
inch of the theater with melodic
grandeur.
Others prominent in the cast
are Elsa Alsen, as Yegor's mother:
Kate Price, an oldtimer in the
movies; Stan Laurel and Oliver
Hardy, the woeful comedians;
Judith Vosselli as Countess TitaniG
and Ullrich Haupt as Count
Serge.

French tenor of that name is
also California bound. Paul ar
rives to find a magnificent home

it so happens that Paul, in taking
