WALLACE BERRY'S HIT 1.-THE SECRET SIX" CLOSING TO-
 NIGHT AT STATE THEATER

Performances this afternoon and evening mark the final presentations of Metro -Goldwyn-Mayers' ace talkie hit of 1930 "The Secret Six" star ring Wallace Beery which has been playing to capacity audiences the past two days at Warner Brothers State theater.
 'sThe Secret Six was built on actual happenings in many Ameri- can cities, and the potent force be- hind it is that it rings absolutely true, It has its comedy, it's love interest, it's grim battles, but through 1t all the law reaches to win in the end. Not essentially a ''gangster picture it bares all the secrets of gangland, as well as the machinations of politicians and the underlying causes for modern municipal conditions.
 Beery as Scorpio is one of a notable cast; in fact, one of the biggest casts ever assembled in a single picture, and in many of the scenes hundreds of people appear. With them Hill, the director. painted his picture of American life in broad, delft strokes.
 There is Lewis Stone, as the sim ister legal mind behind the under worlds reign of terror; Marjorie Rambeau, as the i1l-starred Peaches.

pictures with famous stars. from whom he "stole the picture" caus- ed directors to take notice of his ability and the theater-going public clamored for admission to theater throughout the country whenever his name was allied with the cast of a talkie.
 His recent work opposite Norma Shearer in "The Dfvorcee," with Greta Garbo in ..Inspiration'' with Wallace Berry in "The Big House, :" Constance Bennett in The Easiest Way" and more recently with Norma Shearer in Strangers May Kiss was sufficient to convince producers that he had earned stardom.
 "Shipmates" serves him a role that is the type he plays best. A rollicking carefree member of Uncle Sam's fleet, bounding in and out of love amid the funniest complications and situations that Hollywood's seen ario and dialogue writers have yet concocted to incorporate in any one picture, playing opposite him are Dorothy Jordan, Cliff ''Ukulele Ike' Edwards, Hobart Bosworth, Ernest Terrence and other favorites.
 The picture is decidedly comedy romance from start to finish and should result in capacity houses at the State during every performance starting tomorrow. The picture will be shown at 2:20, 4:45, ZOO and 9:30 D. m. Together with an ex- cellent surrounding program.

 Henry ", the first Bourbon king of France who ruled from 15S9 tt 1910, lived in an age of religious in- tolerance, marked by bitter fights be- tween the Catholics and the Protes- tant Huguenots. He had to fight for the throne, but as soon as he won 1t. he displayed kingly skill in rul- ing the country. France prospered so that he is often referred to as Henry the Great.
 From the time of Henry until just inc other day, a direct descendant of the royal House of Bourbon had always been on some European throne. The royal rule of the Bour- bons ended with King Alfonso XIII of Spain leaving his throne.
 Henry was reared as a zealous Protestant by his mother. then Queen of Navarro. As a young man, he was chosen chief of the Protestant army and so aroused the hostility of Catholics that he was marked for death in the mas sacre of St Bartholomew in l572. His life was spared on condition of protesting himself a Catholic. For three years. he remained vir- tually a prisoner at the Frencn court, but in 1576, he escaped, made his way to a camp Of the HuSuenots in Gascony, repudiated his enforced conversion and re- sumed command of his army.
 When Henry III died at the hands of an assassin in 15S9, Henry the Great was the nearest lineal maie descendant of the royal house ol France. Previously. the House O; VaIois had been the throne. bu' now it was succeeded by the House of Bourbon.
 Being a staunch Protestant and having been declared ineligible 10 the French crown by the rope few years previous, Henry " was unpopular with the greater part or the nation, and the Dukes or LOT raine and Savoy and Philip II or Spain were ready to dispute ms claims to the throne.
 aar,e vears previous. the Catho- lies had formed the Holy league, the secret purpose of which was to sup port the Duke of Guise's preten- sions to the throne. Thus the cause of Protestant Henry seemed nope less. He withdraw to Normandy Ill the hope of obtaining achievements for his army from England and Ger many. His cause was helped py in- f ernal dissensions of the Holy league which had proclaimed the aged Car tlinaI de Bourbon king and the Duke Of Mayenne as lieutenant general:

 He charged the French and Wal loon lancers. He dashed through the long lances. He fought furi- ously, hand to hand His example inspired his men. At the end of two hours the Leaguers were in disorganized retreat Covered with blood, the gallant king came out with only minor wounds.

 Henry was now free to bring about internal improvement of the kingdom, so thoroughly disorganized by civil wars, and this he did with rare skill. He built roads and canals and opened up new sources of wealth. France had never been so prosperous and the national debt was reduced to less than one-sixth its previous figure.
 After 10 years of achievement, King Henry was struck down by the dagger of Ravillac. a religious fana- tic. at Paris, May IA, 1910. Nine teen previous attempts had been made to assa ssinate the king.
