What the Press Agents Saw
LORETTA YOUNG IN "BrG BUS INES GRH CONTINUES TO PLEASE AUDIENCES AT STATE

a
 A rousing comedy, in which hun dreds of local stenogrpahers will see themselves depicted, is Big Bus iness Girr' starring Loretta Young and now playing at Warner Bro- thers' State theater.
 Miss Young plays the part of Mae, a coed, who is torn between love for Johnnie Saunders, leader of the college orchestra, and her ambi- tion to succeed in business. The boy, unable to change her mind goes abroad. Mac hastens to New York to look for work and after discourag- ing weeks, finds a job with Clayton, head of an advertising agency, whose interest in her is personal.
 Saunders returns unexpectedly, and though, the two have been clam destinely married, they quarrel and part. Without her husbands know ledge, she uses her influential friends to secure his promotion. Clayton now wishes to marry her, and an- gered to find that she is already wed, tells her that her husband is scheming to get a divorce.
 Many complications result - through the machinations of a catty patroness of Saunders through a pert divorce correspond ent-through Clayton himself and others-and the result is as merry a, mix-up as may be imagined.
 Big Business Girr' is ultra mod ern and at the same time intense ly human, with just the proper sea- soning of humor. It is absorbingly entertaining and holds the suspense to the last fade-out. Loretta Young has never been quite so .wistfully charming as in the role.of Claire Nc 1ntyre, who wins business success

LEW AIRES IN TALKIE HIT
 UP FOR MURDER" COMING
 COMING TO STATE SATURDAY

What would you do if you had fallen desperately in love with the one you considered the most glori ously beautiful woman in the world and then learned that she was the mistress of your employer?
 This is the situation which con- fronts Lew Ayres in UniversaIs s startling love drama, up for Mur- der," which comes to the Warner Brothers State Theater on Saturday. The woman is the society editor of a great metropolitan newspaper and Lew, cub reporter, is transported with new-found happiness - until he learns the sordid truth. From this point the story is one of the most absorbing descriptions, and is said to afford this rising young star the greatest opportunity of his car- eer to deliver characterization of power and intensity.
 The object of Lew's affections in "Up for Murder" is Genevieve Tobin, recruited only year ago from the New York stage, while other import ant roles in the production are en- acted by Richard Tucker, Frank McHugh, Dorothy Peterson and Frederic Burt. The picture was di- rected by Monta Bell, who has de- picted in a convincing manner the newspaper background in which he has spent many years of his life. not only as a reporter, but also as editor and publisher of the Wash ington, D. C., Herald"

1.-THE PUBLIC ENEMY PLAYING
 REQUEST, ENGAGEMENT AS HEADLINE ATTRACTION ON DOUBLE BILL AT STRAND

If you have ever thought that gangster pictures have had their day and are now passe, you will change your mind when you see The Public Enemy playing a pop ular request engagement at the feat ure attraction on deluxe double feature bill now at Warner Brothers Strand.
 With a stirring story linking every thing together, "The Public Enemy really gives us picturization of the rise, and sometimes the fall, of many notorious underworld characters whose names and deeds are but very thinly disguised in the cast of char acters.
 With this material and the very lsplendid acting, "The Public enemy" resolves itself into the finest film document of it's kind which has yet been produced.
 Moreover, it brings vividly to the forefront the abilities of James Cagney who, with Edward Woods, forms the center of personality in- terest. It is heartening to note that Warner Brothers has recognized his achievements in parts in such pie lures as Sinners Holiday" and Doorway To Helr', and have sgiven him his just dues by placing him in front rank. In movie parlance, he walks away with the picture"
 The cast as a whole was splen- didly well chosen. Edward Woods, as Cagney's buddy, comes second in rank, while Donald Cook, as the honest brother, gives very forceful performance. Joan Blondell, Beryl Mercer, Leslie Fenton, Jean Harlow, Mae Clark, Murray Kinnell, Mia Marvin, Rita Flynn and many others are amongst those prominent in the cast. Junior Coghlan and Frankie Darro portray the gangsters in the childhood sequences.

partners engaged in brawl which resulted in minor bruises and did considerable damage to the spare Greek costumes which some sought to wear.
 Other celebrants attached slave chains to their partners and held on to the other end of the chain. The women, most of them models, wore. Greek costumes, such as were worn at the start. The men were dressed as Greek warriors and charioteers, many of them using tin tunnels for breast plates.
 About 20 Americans were present at guests. They included several American architects visiting France, who came dressed as patriarchs, wearing long white cotton boards. Tony Sarg, illustrator, was among the American guests.
 The chief of police, Jean Chiappe, warned the students that the Quatz Arts ball would have to be less sem sational this year. The celebrants hence arrived less scantily clad than on past occasions, but a flow of wine soon raised their spirits and increas- ed the percentage of nudity.
 About 1000 artists and models at- tended the traditional ball. IL IS supposed to represent the historical period of the return of the victors of Salamins after the great naval battle with the Persians in the straits op- posite Attica. The spirit of victory was present, but it was difficult to discern the historical significance of the costumes.
 The celebrants promised the chief of police they would abandon the traditional nude parade through the city to the fountains in the Place De La Concorde. They even guarded against persons who might peep, as the models were taken to the ball room in auto trucks, all covered.
 But most of the revelers made their ways homeward to-day clad in little more than the morning mists.

 Paris, June 11.-(UP)-American tourists were tossed out by husky "Nubians'' early to-day when they tried in vain to crash" the annual Quatz Arts ball, Paris naugtiest party.
 Hundreds gathered at the entrance to the ball room, seeking through the riotous night to catch glimpses of the revelry going on inside. They had little of excitement during the dark hours other than strains of weird music and loud laughter as the champagne flowed and scanty costumes grew scantier.
 Toward dawn, however, a group of American tourists who had heard of the ball sought to crash the gate" There were synthetic "Nubians," black as stove polish. which they were said to have used, to prevent them from passing the threshold. When the tourists were insistent, the guardians of the gates bounced them out into the street without ceremony.
 The annual Quatz Arts ball came to a riotous climax, during which a shortage of women guests led to a rowdy fight among students attend ing the affair. Youths unable to find
