RIALTO ons 1.-The Phantom I1;a tom Of If the
nantom OF Rialto, embellished with
'ne Ope@' sound effects and talking
sequences, remains pretty
much what it was before-which is to
say that it is fine. Full of all the
thriller hokum" that any director
could possibly want, with striking
scenes Of the Paris Opera, which 60 to
prove that color Is no better than It
used to be, and with golden-haired
heroine, a sleek hero and the most re-
pulsive of Lon Chaneys villainous
characterization as the Phantom"
there is never dull moment and, what
IS more, many that are genuinely
thrilling.
No movie OF modern times perhaps
has 30 much dramatic material at its
mercy-certatnly no movie uses il to
better effect. Two scenes especially
the one where the Phantom is I'M
masked and the one where Mary Phil
bin vaniSheS suddenly from the stage
Of the opera, are guaranteed to chill
the spine Of any one. Furthermore, for
those who happen to think they would
like to see what q Paris mob does to
one Of its enemies, it Is worth while to
stay until the end. The Phantom's
night ride as the driver of the coach,
just before he reaches his gruesome
death, Is better than the ghost of Paul
Revere's ride.
The cast, Of course, is lost amid
the conglomeration OF settings and ac-
tions. That it Is good Is evident from
the fact there is never a Earring note.
One might say, however, that in the
introduction Of the talking sequences
the fair Mary Philbin has noticeably

Newman on "BraziI."

The second Of the Newman Travel
talks, given yesterday afternoon at the
National Theater, had Brazil" for its
subject. Before capacity audience
and one that seemed to be enjoying
itself to the fullest-Mr. Newman I'M
folded the wonders Of commerce, nature
and architecture with which this coun-
try is replete.
Beginning with illustrations Of the
"Chicago'' of Brazil, Sac Paulo, Mr..
Newman made thorough study of the
way coffee is grown and shipped, and
the fun that pickers have in their cof-
fee wildernesSeS, working, as they do,
with their families and stepping on as
well as around the coffee bean itself.
The first glimpse Of Rio De Janeiro,
which Mr.. Newman claims is the won
der city of the world, was taken from
the ship as 1t passed into the famous
harbor Once ashore there were views
of the numerous skyScrapers, the street
pavementS made out of mozaicS, the
gardens and public parks, the spacious
Avenida Rio Branco, and the adver-
tiseElents of American motor cars.
There were pictures of the beautiful
race track, more splendid even than
the one at Buenos Aires, the crowds
there, and afterward more crowds at
the tournament Of the prize beauty
contest of Brazil.
President and Mrs. Hoover were
shown on their triumphant arrival and
later at the white House" of Rio.
In conclusion there were magnificent
views taken from the top of the sur
rounding mountains, such as Sugar
Loaf, also glimpseS from the air, and,

fact that there Is considerable differ
ence between the interspersed new
parts and the old. 1t readily doesn't mat

himself as silent as ever.
The rest OF the program Is made up
Of q Hal Roach comedy entitled Great

PAT.ACF If you, as patron of the
photoplay theater, are
"The rather tired of screen
Kipitzer." musical affairs and
back-stage stories, THE
Kibitzer" will be welcome relief. It
is good wholesome entertainment, Of a
sort which viii do more to place the
talking screen where 1t really belongs
than any other type of laxative VEN
ture. THE Kibitzer" was a moderately
successful stage play, holding its own
for several months with some excellent
Broadway attractions; but placing 1t
upon the screen has improved it to
large extent.
In reviewing this particular picture
it may be well to explain the meaning
Of the word, "kibitzer," for this re-
ieves the writer of the necessity of
detailing the plot. The word may have
been coined on New York's East Side,
or it may find its derivation far back
in Hebrew literature. Anyway, it is the
pet name for chap who rarely attends
to his own business, preferring to force
himself into the affairs of others. AS
an illustration, a kibitzer may stand
behind your chair while you are play
ing pinochle and tell you what cards
to play and just where your Judgment
is faulty. The kibitzer knows all about
everything, from playing the ponies to
high finance; he is q pest of the
modern age.

that It has been worn threadbare. Prob
ably It seems good to stage folks. A good
many folks, however, are tired Of It.
And here we have another Of them,
good enough so far as It goes. The plot
seems to have been evolved entirely for
the purpose Of introducing some Zieg-
field review scenes featuring Rudy
vallee. the funny Eddie Cantor, Helen
Hughes, star Of "Showboat," and Mary
Eaton.
Mary Eaton is the heroine. She is a
singer in the music department of big
store. The piano player is sweet on her
and she on him. But she thinks 1t
would be nicer to have her name in
electric lights on Broadway than to be
mistress of fiat with squalling FAM
lily. So she proscrastinates with her
beau, gets on the stage and finally
achieves her great ambition as the star
in q ziegfeld production, the glorifled
American girl in silks and feathers.
On the night the show opens she
learns that her dear slick-haired piano
player has married another girl, that
the price Of glory has been love, that
she has sacrificed domestic bliss with
the man she adoreS. But does she give
way to her emotions? She is one of
those heroic stage folks who give their
public the best that is in them, even
when their hearts are breaking. She
goes through with it, is accorded a
great ovation, and that's the end Of It.
This great plot probably was first
evolved by Cro-Magnon or Grimal-
di dramatist in the secluSion Of his dark
cave-or it may even have been bright
idea of Eoanthus dressed up by the
Neanderthalers. T. H.

Of the charm brought to It by the ex-
cellent Characterization of Warner
Baxter as Pablo, son Of a Mexican
mother Of ancient Spanish lineage, and
an American father, or of the equally
effective performance of Mona Maris
In the leading feminine role.
The story holds the attention closely,
though action lags at times, action Is
apt to lag on the Rio Grande. Pablo,
knowing that his mother was baniShed
from her fathers rancho upon her
marriage, has vowed never to set foot
on Santa Margarita, but Fate DEGREES
otherwise. After q battle with bandits
in defense of the railroad he Is con-
structing for an American corpora
ton, he finds himself wounded and
lying in his grandfather's house at
Santa Margarita, whittier his horse had
wandered when he had lost con-
seriousness.
From this point, romance and in
trigue take q hand in the plot, in
volving a nephew of Pablo's grand
father, ward, and little Margarita,
who loves Pablo, but thinks her pas
sion is vain. Death to the intriguerS
and happiness for Pablo and Margartta
follow story climax.

 war.
 The U. S. District Court which ! reviewed Professor Macintosh's con- tention concluded that under such circumstances he could not be admit | ted to citizenship. Under the Consti- tuition every citizen is expected to be | ready to defend the Constitution, etc. Obviously, in connection with a clergyman, the entire matter is academic. Clergymen in wars are utilized as aplains. A test case is being made of the Macintosh view, however, and reports are that it ultimately will reach the l.. S. Supreme Court for final determina- ton.
 The case in its potentialities hinges upon conscientious objecting During the late unpleas asantness Quakers and other scots possessing bona fide opposition to active par ticipation in such a conflict were specifically excused from such participation, although members of such sects had no objection to serv- ing in supplementary capacities Their numbers were comparatiyely few and the government was not embarrassed. Professor Macintosh, 1t would seem, comes under a some what similar category; yet the words of the Constitution are plain. Had he been born in this country instead of Canada he could have maintained his position without court review. He is making fight for a principle and perhaps it is a costly venture. IT it Is to be properly determined some- one must make such an effort.
 IL could have been avoided, of course, by tho naturalization officials saying to the professor that, in his particular case it made no difference what he thought on the subject. Or the professor, if queried on the matter could have been a yes man. He was honest and frank, however. creating for himself a deal of legal difficulties and preparing the ground for test case that will serve as an important determinant in future questions of that type. Being d clergyman of standing and distinc- ton it is impossible to regard Pro- lessor Macintosh's views in any other light than a frank espousal Of religious convictions which though happening 10 run contrary to the general viewpoint of the duties and responsibilities of citizenship, never thelcss cannot be indefinitely isnor- cd

STILL AT LARGE

It is not comforting to contem- plate that the three crooks, one of them 'lifer" who escaped from Wethersfleld prison are still at large. The escape was sensation for q few days, there was what is known as an investigation" of how it occurred. nobody was found wanting in com- mon watchfulness except that q guard was discharged. and that is all. The erstwhile prisoners only had approximately half an hour lee way over the authorities, but that was enough.
 It has not been pretty picture police and detectives chasing hither and yon. running down "clews" as far distant as Boston, Pittsfeld and Canada, and failing to return with their quarry.
 The amazing thing is that no large amount of criticism has come to anyone as a result of the prison break. It is merely regarded as "one of those things wi..ch sometimes happen"
 There are many observing citizens who are not entirely satisfied.
