CHAPLIN BRINGS LYRIC
HOUSE DOWN WITH LAUGH
HIT LAST SHOWING TODAY

"Clty Lights" awaited by the
film colony for three years tas a
defiant gesture against talking pic
lures by Charlie Chaplin, the last
of the silent stars, was given an
enthusiastic reception at the Lyric
theater last night.
"City Lights" Chaplin himself
describes as a romantic comedy In
pantomime. To the public, he is
the same tragic little tramp with
the typical Chaplin appeal and he
Is the same uproarious comic
whose gags seem to be without
equal in the world of the cinema
Always an individualist, Chaplin
has made "City Lights" without
the sound Of a single human voice.
though sound Is used with striking
effect.

NEA Service Writer

New York.--An obscure showgirl
Of IL. with raven black hair and
moody Gaelic features, walked into
the offices of Broadway theatrical
agency looking for a job--and
walked out with O challenge from
beyond the grave. To-day she is
preparing to take up that chal-
lenge. }a
For in the course of an inter-
view with the agent she had barred
a strange secret. She had said
that her stage name was Dea Lloyd
and had. been assumed; that she
was actually Julie Eagles, and that
her mother was Jeanne, Eagles,
whose brilliant stage career ended
so tragically few years before.
Fully aware. now of the con-
fusion her statement has caused
since the existence of such q
daughter had never been known to
the world, Julie says that, never
less, she Is glad she finally made
the break. She feels she Is now
old enough to carry on; old
enough to face the world as her
mothers daughter and to J. learn
how much inherited talent she pos
sesses.
Picture Brings Out Story
In few days she will begin
studying the role she will play in
her first picture, For Hire" the
work OF one Irving Franklin. She
Is not to be introduced as Sadie
Thompson In "Rain," the part
which brought International fame
to Jeanne Eagles. &

her past as she sat in one of those

John and Lionel Barrymore To.
gethcr In the Film Hit of the
Season, "Arscnc Lupin." At
Fox Poll Palace Starting Sunday

Spellbindlng mystery. sophisti-
Gated humor and the engaging ro-
, nance of master criminal and
the feminine spy who Is hired to
track him down., are expertly
lblended in "Arsene Lupin," which
will open a four days engagement
at Fox Poll Palace Sunday, pre-
senting the first appearance to-
gether on the screen Of John and
Lionel Barrymore.
As the suave drawing-room thief
Lupin. John Barrymore gives one
OF the most delightful and enter
tanning performances Of his distin-
g,ished career, while Lionel Bar
rymore, as the detective, has never
teen seen to greater advantage.
Between the adventures of the two,
The audience is given more than Its
usual share of cinema diversion. Il.
The story Is filled with unique
situations. There Is dramatic
episode in which the spy attempts
to besmirch her honor in order to
create an alibi for the thief. There
Is an engrosslng sequence In which
the grim detective Is faced with the
choice of releasing Arsene Lupir
or losing his daughter, who has
been kidnapped by the thief's
henchmen. Further high spots are
the daring theft of the famous
painting, Mona Lisa" from the
Louvre and an hilarious contre-
temps when the police detectives
mistakenly arrest their own chief
as result of the Vaccinations OF
the willy Lupin.
The acting Of the attractive
Karen Morley as the spy, John
Milan as the prefect-of-police and
FULLY Marshall as millionaire
roue measures up to the high
standard set by the two Barry
mores. Equally effective Is the di-
rection Of Jack Conway. who has
kept his story moving at lightning
speed with laughs crowding close
on the heels Of the thrills.

Fund Transfers
Given Approval

The right of Imperial county to
transfer money in one fund to that
of another when the need arises
was upheld in an opinion received
at the district attorneys office to-
day from U. S. Webb, attorney
general.
Webb set forth that such action
could be taken on account of leg
islation passed in November of
1926, according to Charles G.. Hal
liday, deputy district attorney. He
explained that in his opinion such
transfer would be permissible from
July /, one year. until April 20
of the following year. The period
is governed by the county fiscal
year and the receipt and exhaus-
ton of tax funds, said Halliday.
The opinion of Webb was sought
by the district attorneys office in
order to test the legality of trans
ferring certain sums from the
school fund for use in other de-
partments in order to eliminate the
necessity of registration of county
warrants.
Supervisors are expected to dis
cuss the opinion at their meeting
tomorrow.
