MILAN, Sept. 30.-A mystery
man with SCARED face and three
fingers missing is the central fig
ure in an anti-Fascists trial here,

says the prosecution, one of the
leaders Of conspiracy to "cauSe
a simultaneous explosion of in
cendiary bombs in government Of
ficeS in Milan. He was. say the
prisoners, Fascist spy and an
agent-provocateur.
Members of Society
All the other nine accused men
are admittedly members of the
Justice Of Liberty organization,
which, however, always has been
definitely and strongly against
terrorist acts.
Del De Joined the movement IN
the autumn of 1929 and was very
active in distributing illegal
literature. Then gradually he be-
gan to suggest serious methods" )"
On October 4 of last year he
called on Count Sforza,. the for
mer Italian foreign minister, in
Brussels, and asked him if ne did
not think the time had come for
terrorism.
Fled the Country
Count Sforza showed him the
door. Del Re went from Brussels
to Paris, urging again the begin
ming Of a bombing campaign;
then to Milan, where he called on
. number of anti-Fascists, to
whom he gave various illegal
documents.
Suspicion later fell on Del Re
and he fled the country.

not be recognized by the average

II THEATRE' LIFE
 IS BROUGHT TO. CAPITOL SCREEN
New York Nights Stars Norma Talmadge in
 Her First Talkie

"New York Nights which will begin showing at the Capitol the ater tonight, stars Norma Tal- madge in her first musical talking picture. It is a thrilling melodra- rnatic production, rich in romance, power and entertainment values.
 A lavish display of sets, crowds, music, comedy and a sincere TO- nance laid in that picturesque belt of New York City known as Tin Pan Alley, were intelligently wov- en into pleasing whole by Lewis Milestone, comedy director.
 Lively Story, Good Plot
 New York Nights" is lively story with a logical and under standing plot pleasingly presented
 As the background to this plot is laid the glamorous night life of the most famous street in the world, with it's song writers, chorus girls and sinister racketeers.
 As Jill" the chorus girl wife Of Fred Deverne." played by Gill bert Roland, Miss Talmadge ere ates a character of delightful ap- peal and paradoxical moods-a character part whimsy, part pathos and thoroughly real.
 MT. Roland, who plays opposite the star, does excellently in the difficult role of Fred Deverne, potential star lyricist who sells his honor and the only worthwhile song he ever wrote for drink of booze.
 Sinister Partner Role
 John Wray, is an excellent "Joe Prividi," a sinister partner of the underworld. Lilyan Tashman as Peggy" the chorus girl, and Ros- COG Karns and Mary Doran com plete an excellent cast of capable players.

Alice White Stars in Show Cirl' at Coliseum
 This Evening

Take a trip through the First National Studio and all the famous places of Hollywood!
 This is the advice broadcast by the management of the Coliseum Theatre, where Show Girl in Hol- lywood," First Nationals amusing screen drama of the film capital with Alice White and Jack Null hall, opens tonight.
 Mervyn LeRoy, in directing the J. P. McEvoy story, took his com pany on location to many of the ar-famed spots of Hollywood and vicinity. When not working on the studio lot he took scenes showing the gayest and most celebrated rendezvous and night life resorts of the celluloid metropolis.
 Glamor0us Cafe Life
 The glamorous Montmartre Cafe the Hollywood Theatre, Hollywood Boulevard. Beverly Hills, the hill- side bungalows, and other charac- terist features are a background for the drama of little Dixie Du- gan, played by Alice White, who tries to make good in pictures.
 LeRoy takes audiences for peep inside the projection rooms, the mixers booth, back of the sets and cameras, and an electricians eye view of picture making. He even makes film as part of the story which is shown projected in a preview at a Hollywood theatre
 Keeps To Story
 He remains faithful to McEvoy's story throughout. Dixie, Broad way girl. tries for success in talk ies. She fails at first, but just at the bitterest moment every thing comes to her at once. Har- vey Thew and James A. Starr adapted the story and wrote the dialogue.
 Blanche Sweet has a prominent talking role Ford Sterling ane Jchn Milan are also in the cast There are several musical se- quences in Technicolor.

NEW YORK-There's happiness among the stars! No not the heavenly variety but those very glittering stars that shine so bright ly in the theatrical Armament. Which will be news to lots of peo- pie who think stage folk never make obeisane to the domestic gods, but marry merely to prepare for the publicity that so often sur rounds a theatrical divorce.
 Of course there are divorces, dis agreements and disastrous mar riages amongst the people of the theatre. But not, they will hasten to inform you, in greater numbers than among members of any other profession or career. For, they argue, in what other walk of life would you find handsome woman walking away from the chance of lifetime in order to be with a man, when that man is her hus- band. That is just one of the things that isn't done in polite circles, but in the theatre, we'll that's another and nicer story.
 Happy Couples
 The stage abounds with happy couples like pretty Edna Best who walked off the Hollywood lot and took the first train East to hand some Herbert Marshall, from whom she couldn't just bear to be sepa- rated for more than three weeks. Real love is like that and that's the brand of, love with which the stage abounds.
 It's easy to imagine Bill Brady grunting his satisfaction when he read the Edna Best story, even if he did desert a job. For William A. Brady and his wife, Grac e George, are among the happiest and most devoted of stage couples. They consult each other in every thing and neither would dream of doing any theatrical work without
