WEDDING RINCS'
 SIP ARKLES WITH BRIGHT SAYINGS
Lois Wilson and H. B. War ner Are Co-featured in
 Coliseum Play

Wedding Rings the First Ma tional and Vitaphone picturization of Ernest Pascals novel, "The Dark Swan" which opened at the Coliseum Theatre last night, and which will be presented again to- night, retains in the film version all the sophistication of the book. The story tells of the struggle of two sisters for the love of one man.
 Lois Wilson and H. B. Warner, who are co-featured, make a cap able team.
 Self lf-Sacrificing Role
 As sacrificing nelia Quinn, who stakes her happiness in an effort to keep her sister from wrecking the life of the man she loves, Miss Wilson displays a fine understanding of her role.
 H. B. Warner is cast as Lewis Dike, all-too-human millionaire clubman and the object of the Quinn sisters contention.
 Vivacicus and Attractive
 Olive Borden, vivcaious and at tractive, is as clever as selfish, jazz-mad Eve Quinn.
 Hallan Cooley does bankrupt playboy and furnishes comic relief fer the film. James Ford is ex- cellent in the role of Tim Hazel ton, a millionaire's son whose ca reer is wrecked by his love for Eve Quinn.
 Mrs. Quinn, mother of the girls, is portrayed by Kathleen Williams. Aileen Manning is appealing as one of her daughters.
 Wedding Rings" is carried along by a sparkling dialogue.
 William Beaudine directed. Ray Harries adapted the story for the screen.

KENTUCKY DERBY RECORD OF 1914
 STILL UNBROKEN

LOUISVILLE, Ky, April 29- For 16 years the record time for the Kentucky Derby has been held by Old Rosebud.
 In 1914 he covered the mile and a quarter in 2:03 2-5, and the time has not been bettered by any three -year-old. The only ether horse to beat two minutes, four seconds, was Bubbling Over, which was clocked at 2.03 AS in 1926.
 Bubbling Over has two sons eligible for this years derby but neither rates highly. They are H. c. Hatch's Boys Howdy, and w. c. and E. w. Reichert's Boiling.
 The record made by Old Rose bud was hung up under an inn pest considerably lighter than the 126 pounds all colts and geldings now are required to carry. Fillies are given a five pound advantage.

'D|vORCEE" WITH
 SHEARER HEADS
 CAPITOL'S BILL.
Star Gives Portrait of Wealthy Woman in So-
 phisticated Society

In The Divorcee," which open ed last night at the Capitol Thea tre and which will be presented at tonights shows, Norma Shearer proves she is capable actress She gives a moving portrait of a woman who in an attempt to met the standards of sophisticated society gives herself up to promis- cuous living and almost succeeds in losing her husband in the bar gain.
 Marriage Problem in Plot
 Miss Shearer is seen as Jerry Bernard, daughter of a millionaire, who after three years of married life discovers that Ted, her hus- band, has recently carried on an affair with Janice. Bitterly hurt she forces herself to accept the explanation of her husband that he still loves her only and that the affair was simply an unimport- ant phenomenon of the current moral code of modern civilization
 When, however, she subsequent- ly meets her husband at his own game, Ted looks at things in a different light and deserts her.
 Utterly Disillusioned
 Utterly disillusioned, Jerry then abandons herself to period of careless life. Finally, an event reveals to her the futility of her actions and in an unexpected manner she contrives to win her husband back again.
 The plot carries with it several miner situations, including a pathetic interlude in which the husband of a woman whose beauty has been ruined as the result of an automobile accident is torn torn between loyalty to his wife and his love for Jerry.
 Added attractions are news reel and a comedy.

 Anna @. Nilsson came to this country from Sweden at the age of thirteen, and began her career as nursemaid. She knew what it meant to work hard and live with out luxuries in workaday world. From her small earnings she sent money to her parents in the home land. But her brave struggle through the lean days were re- warded and her beauty attracted photographers and modists. She got enough money to keep going until she reached Hollywood and stardom.

Paris Finds Safety
 In Denser Traffic


 PARIS, April 29.-Paris traffic has become so congested that it has reached the safety mark. The widest driver cannot get up enough speed for a good smash.
 Stud-marked passages at street crossings also protect pedestrians, but woe betide the man on foot who is caught outside their pre- cincts. He is fair game for taxis, and liable to arrest for obstructing traffic.
 Police statistics show there were only 292 fatal traffic accidents last year as compared with BPS the year before.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal.-The road to Hollywood has many detours.
 Those star-bound regiments of men and women usually travel through many fields before they reach the mart of Kleig lights. Tn the stellar firament of movie Car inas and Emperors we find an ar ray of ex-butchers, bakers and candlestick makers, chorines, wait resses, and shop girls.
 2 A birds-eye view of the early beginnings of royalty in the king dom of Hollywood shows pretty clearly that stardom is rarely pre- destined. It's mostly made of chance and hard work, disappoinments and variety.
 The male, of course, leads the female in the variety phase of former occupations" for, after all, this is a man-made world
 Alexander Gray, who found his place in the Milky Way of the cin- ema colony when the audible films became popular, has covered a great deal of ground on the big trail of fame His first job was waiting on tables and heaving coal into a furnace. In his spare time he would exercise his vocal chords and imagine that he was a swash- buckling troubadour singing to some 1.-the and languorous lady leaning on balcony.

erty in the sidewalks of New York, to win chorus job. She won an amateur night contest and, elated after winning the first prize, she went to see J. J. Shubert. He put her in the chorus of the Passing Show" and later gave her the prin- cipal role. Anne Nichols, author of "Abie's Irish Rose" asked Nancy to play the part of Rosemary in the picture version of the play. Nancy got many bruises, however, before she made the grade and kicked the ball over the success line.
 Chevalier's Climb
 Maurice Chevalier tried all the trades that the French newspapers carried in the advertising sections, but he didn't make good in any of them. Finally he got a chance to be dancing partner for the fa- nous Mistinguette The boulevards began to hail him as the prince of entertainers and America grabbed him for the films
 Even Charlie Farrell, idol of the screen, whose recent marriage to Virginia Valli, manifested in slight degree the height of popularity to which he has risen, made his in- itial bow on the road to fame in the role of valet to one of the leading luminaries of Hollywood, always looking forward to the day when he, too, would have his name emblazoned in the annals of Movie Colony fame.
