Two English Boys
Are Fox HeadIiners

Val and Ernie Stanton, two
brothers playing at, the Fox
Theater this week where they are
billed as "the two English boys
from America" make fun Of
English as spoken in England
despite the fact that they are
London born boys. The brothers
are the sons of Walter Stanton,
one of England's greatest ven
triloquists and farmyard imita-
tors. ."
Both boys were born and raised
in theaterical atmosphere. Their
mother was Tina Corri, opera
singer and sister of Eugene Corri,
prominent English sportsman and
publisher of Sporting Life.
Val and Ernie Stanton landed
in the United States back in
1898. Then there is a lapse of
time before they started their
professional career.

A MANS Party

And his reply would always

served.
Came the day when Mr. Ed.
gar looked at the calendar ana
then turned to his friends with
an idea.
BOY" he asserted, what we
need is a good stiff vacation.
We haven't had one in a long,
long time. Suppose we take a
run up to my hunting loCge in
the Catskill Mountains and
stay as long as we like. Wen
get away from Broadway and,
the depression for a waile. It'll
do us all good"
Mr.. Smith looked dubious.
"It's okay with me, he said.
"I'd love to. get away for a
month or SO. But how about
your wife? She'd be q little biz
out of place where three Of us
are roughing it up there
Mr.. Edgar waved a hand.
"I'll fix that" he stated. I'll
tell Mary about it and she'll
understand completely. Sne will
be only too happy to stay home.
I'll take my chauffeur along
and he can act as cook. This
will be strictly a mans party.

changed policy. Six acts OF
vaudeville, or a unit show Will
provide the stage program to sup

The restoration of stage show
will be good news for stage hands
and musicians who are among
those suffering from lack OF
available jobs for union men.
Incidentally the Rialto Theater
has been pondering on the ad-
visibility of supplementing the
screen program with stage acts.
They desire certain concessions
from the union craftsmen and
have made overtures to ootn
stage hands and musicians de,
signed to cut expenses should
such a change in policy be lnau-
gurated.
Bernard Sobel, all flushed with
excitement because his new book,
"Burley Cue" is off the presses,
arrived in town yesterday to
beat the tom-tom and cymbals
for Ziegfeld's FollieS.
The Sobel volume reciteS the
history of burlesque from the
days when the Rose Sydell
queens had shapes like an hour
glass down to the era OF the mod
ern "stripperS."
Mr.. sobel will tell radio
listeners about the Ziegfeld
attractions this afternoon over
WNAL.
R-K-O has issued orders that
"Frankenstein" will be shown in
its theaters only to adult
audiences.
The eastern premiere of
"Frankenstein" will occur at the
Rialto tomorrow but Manager
Rodney Collier assures one and
all there will be no restriction
here on juvenile patronage.
"Frankenstein' is not salacious,
merely weird and heralded as
the last word in shuddering ex-
element. R-K-O executives are
adopting this policy on their own
initiative, since the picture has
the o. K. of the Will Hays office.

The question was addressed
to Mr.. Walter. He nodded.
"I'll be tickled to death to
co." was his response. I'm
ready to leave whenever you
boys are"
Good" cried Mr.. Edgar.
And on the appointed day,
with baggage and rifles and
rods tossed in the car, the
three gentlemen of Broadway
were on their way to the hunt
ing lodge in the Catskills.
Their routine at the lodge
you know as well as I. They
did little fishing and less hunt
ing. If they ran around the
lodge once or twice that was
great exercise. They slept un-

drank plenty Of rye. It was,
in other words, a typical out
door party in the Broadway
manner. At night they sat
before roaring fire and

mused Mr.. Edgar. We've all

had so much as one conflict.
That's real friendship, boys,
because we all know that the
one thing that breaks up pals
on our street is the damsel.
We've been mighty fortunate"

It goes without saying that
the female sex was of primary
Importance in their lives. Mr..
Edgar was the only married
member Of the trio; Mr.. Wal
ters and Mr.. Smith having
tried the marital gag and
found it wanting some years
before. They were now on the
loose, as Mr.. Coolidge might
say, and I regret to tell you
that that, even though he was
married, Mr.. Edgar wasn't
far behind.
I need not paint too vivid a
picture Of one of their discus
sions about women in general.
Being of Broadway, I fear they
were a trifle skeptical about
the entire sex. They talked Of
their conquests; they talked of
their habits. Every once in so
often, Mr.. Edgar would sigh
heavily.
Sometimes boys" he would
murmur, "I wish I could join
you fellows on some of your
escapades. But when I think
of that sweet little woman at
home, the thought of other
girls leaves my mind. You un-

Mr.. Edgar, a bill in his hand
and a most unhappy look upon
his face. He stopped before
his two pals and tossed a bomb
shell between them.
(which one of you two sup
posed friends is the rat in my
house?"
Mr.. Walters and Mr.. Smith
sat suddenly erect.
Whats that?" cried Mr.. Wal
ters. what did you say?"
Mr.. Edgar clenched his fists.
"You heard what I said," he
ranted. zone of you is a dirty
double-crossing loIse. One OF
you has been calling my wife
on the telephone every day
since we've been here. My own

Mr.. Smith stood up.

The outraged husband fairly
shook with anger.

"You probably know better
than l." he howled, ''but I'll
tell you how either you or Mr..
Walters has been caught. Or
maybe it's the both of you. How
do I know?
MY phone bill came in this
morning. Didn't know they
itemize each call up here, did
you? Didn't know they put
down each number? Well, they
do. I've called my wife twice
since I've been here. And here's
a bill for 30 calls!
Call yourselves my pals, do
you? Well, the game is over.
You can both get out-and right

Back in the lodge, Mr.. Edgar
was the most miserable of men.
He summoned his chauffeur

muttered. Something terrible
has happened. I'm going up
stairs to pack. You get the car
ready.

Eyes, sir" said the servant.
May I ask what has happened,
sir?"
Mr.. Edgar sighed.
Henry" he said, you're a
married man with four chill
dren. You've been married for
20 years. If you found that
your wife was being unfaithful
to you, what would you do?"
The chauffeur stepped back
in amaZement.

he cried, that Mrs. Edgar
His employer nodded sadly.
He walked slowly from the
room and up the stairs. The
servant bit nervously at his
nails. He had worked so long
for this employer. He needed
his job. What would happen
when Mr.. Edgar confronted the
madam? He made up his mind
to take action. He rushed to
the phone and called Mrs. Ed
