MISS STANWYCk HAS FINE ROLE.
 IN ''SHOPW0RN' J
Capable Cast Presents h.
 teresting Drama at
 Capitol Theatre

Who are the decent people,? It's question David Livingston asks some dinner guests, including his mother, when the presence in the same public dining room of an actress brings about criticism of the management for letting such a woman in the same place with decent people,"
 David knows this woman's story, for he had loved her when she was young and innocent. He knows that he was kept from marrying her through the deceit and cruelty and selfishness of his own mother He knows that this young woman has become shopworn through nec- essity and hard because his fail- ure to believe in her innocence dis illusioned her.
 Proposal of Marriage
 He knows that they who point the finger of scorn have little reason to brag of their own de- cency-and he goes to the woman and esks her, six years after his first proposal, to marry him!
 This woman and this man are the central figures in "Shopworn" the Columbia picture starring Bar bara Stanwyck at the Capitol thea tre. Miss Stanwyck displays her emotional power in the role of Kitty Lane, the girl who put her love on the bargain counter after true love had played her false.
 Toomey Plays Young Doctor
 Regis Toomey plays the young doctor who at. last breaks free from the dominance of his moth- CT ana marries the girl they have both wronged. ZaSu Pitts and Lucisn Littlefield provide the com- edy as owners of quick lunch restaurant where Kitty's career begins. Clara Blandick makes the mother thoroughly hated. Oscar Apfel is the judge who stacks the cards against the girl. Albert Con- ti, Robert Alden and Maude Tur- ner Gordon contribute small but interesting characterizations.
