Reviews and News of Washington Theaters.
PoIa Negri Linked With
Strong Show at Keith's.

POLA NEGRI, at R-K-o Keith's,
is presented in a play of pygmy
royalty which, aside from the acting
by a star of first rank, is limited in
its appeal to the impressive nature of
the trappings of royalty, the con-
fusion of a miniature revolution, and
the comic incidents that surround
the throne of the principality. On
the stage the house offers most
attractive vaudeville bill, which is
reminiscent of the golden period of
this form of entertainment.
Heading the list is Bernice Claire,
who has one of those voices, hereto
fore placed upon the musical pin
destined from the beginning for
stirring the mind with involuntary
bursts of melody. Miss Claire has
to her credit a surprising number of
popular compositions, all of the
type of music that arouses memories
of originality, impressiveness and
sweetness in song. She runs through
a long group of them to the de-
light of her hearers. A piano on
the stage is all that is needed to
give new force to a musical comedy
personality of refined quality.
Trini. scintillating Spanish dancer,
with the assistance of Charles
Barnes, Jack Starr, Alberto Gallo I.
Peterson and L. Suther, and elabo-
rate stage settings, combines the
romance of the dance with
romantic touches of drama In
way which arouses keen appreciation.
Her buoyance and strength are to
be noticed in the selections given,
while the assistant performers, TAX
ing the acrobatic field, which has
been well worked, have something
new.
Lester Allen, with the assistance
of Peggy Hoover, has an exhibition
of comedy which combines we'll with
songs and dances, and the two ap-
pear in juvenile rig with one of the
sensations of the program. Lander
Brothers with Helene Ambrose repro
duce one of the time -honored comic
sketches with topical songs that are
appreciated, while the Three Aces"
in new skating tricks maintain their
high reputation.
Miss Negri's play, "a Woman
Commands" while not taxing the
imagination, reveals the star in
moods which come from her natural
versatility, and excellent work is

YOUTH GIVEN $50 DAYS
IN PROBE OF BURGLARY
West Virginian Says That He Was
Looking for Place to Sleep
When Alarm Sounded.

Although he said he was "only look
ing for a place to wash and sleep
when he attempted to enter Castle
bergs Jewelry Store, 1904 street,
yesterday, John Kaspar, l8, Of Collier,
w. Va, was sentenced to $50 days in
Jail by Judge Gus A. Schuldt in Police
Court today.
Police arrested Kaspar In an alley
near the store after responding TO a
burglar alarm there. Investigation
showed an attempt had been made to
enter the store through a trapdoor
on the roof, while police said Kaspar
showed them how he had climbed a
cable and drain pipe to get up there.
In court the man said he did not
know the place was jewelry store and
was looking for a place to wash and
sleep.
"A rather serious error" said Judge
Schuldt, in sentencing him.

Gentleman for a day" is the
backbone of its thesis Chic, the
Jail, drops into the Union Depot.
Fairbanks. jr., recently out of city
jail drops into the Union Depat.
There. by accident, he comes upon
a girl. There, too, upon new suit
and a fat wallet-WhiCh he Dor
rows" There, too, he finds myS-
terious violin case which is full of
money-and there he spends the
money on the girl without knowing
that the money is fake. When the
money is discovered to be what it is,
the police come after him-he and
the girl are seized-and then-What
happens is good, old-fashioned, red
blooded action-acted to the queens
taste, and ending up the only way
1t can, which is fine all around.
Young Fairbanks does the part of
Chic with real humor and a happy
go-lucky manner which is particu-
larly adroit. And while people say,
Il can't imagine Joan Blondell as
Doug's leading lady" they will find
that she fits this role to perfection.
Guy Kibbe. veteran stage actor,
whose appearances before the cam
era are all too rare, plays Dougs
side partner in crime and comes
near to stealing the picture. They
are all o. K.-and so is the station
and the villianous villain with the
dark glasses and the fact that the
violin case doesn't have a violin. In
other words this is honest-to-good-
ness drama, which it will pay you
well to see.
The stage show is not what it
should be, perhaps. because it comes
after Bing Crosby short" which
has all the lady audience "ah-ing"
and "Oh-ing''-and partly because,
except for Johnny Burke, "the man
who's still in the Army" the talent
is few and far between. Those who
participate are Louis BeSkoff g. Co.,
in dancing "Russiana"; Eddie Mil
Ter, singing and singing and singing,
and the DanWillS, who are splendid
at jumping up and down on each
others neckS and shoulders.

merely means Get out of my way;
I'm coming" The procedure, they con-
tend is more confusing than helpful to
the man afoot and should be prohibited.
IF a driver knows that he will be
nenalized for footing his horn at a
pedestrian" the boys report asserts,
"he will not rely upon his horn to or
der people out of his way, but will get
his car under control.
The Youthful traffic experts see no
excuse whatever for crash at an in
tersection. because, they contend, slow
driving would eliminate this danger.
Would Revoke Permits.
'If," they say whenever an accident
occurs at an intersection, some one has
his permit revoked, in short time our
streets would be rid of the daring driv-
erS who depend on the quality OF the
other fellows brakes"
The BOYS also propose penalties for
violation of their rules, which, they say,
should be incorporated in the traffic
code of the District. For first offense
they recommend revocation of permit
for a year: for the second, they believe
the permit should be revoked for three
wears. and for the third offense they'd
relieve the driver of his permit for all
time.
The boys point out they have tried
the rules themselves and find them sue
cessful. and they contribute to the
satisfaction of the driver and the safety
of the pedestrian"
They conclude with the statement of
their creed:
Il. Responsibility for safeguarding
pedestrians and avoiding accidents rests
squarely on the shoulders of the autoist,
and
20. That whenever there is an acci-
dent, some one should be punished"

Holt in Makers of Men"
Shown at Metropolitan.


DRIPPING with atmosphere Of the
- gridiron, lusty with college yells
and thick with pigskins sailing
through the air, Makers of Men,
featured at the Metropolitan, is a
foot ball picture which no fan, be he
full grown or embryonic, can afford
to miss.
1t is also story that will delight
the anti-sentimentalist group, be-
cause, with the exception of two
scenes-one showing the "hero's"
ideal sitting in a box at the game.
the other depicting her turning up
her pretty nose when he fails to win
the game-there is scarcely a sug-
gestion of the weaker sex in the en-
tire story.
But, despite this fact, there are
plenty of fights, proving that men
can fight whether there's a woman
around or not. In fact, the picture
is more or less of battle royal from
the moment the coach of Western
University slaps the face of his son
for failing to make good as quarter
back on his team to the moment
when the son deserted to the rival
college team through indignation at
father cOach'S slap, KNOCKS down ana
out almost the entire II of his
fathers team, to prove he can really
play foot ball and possesses the cour-
age which his father thinks he lacks.
Makers of Men is a lusty, red
blooded American foot ball story,
even though its complications and
plot are bit far-fetched. One is
forced to muse bit over who pays
the tuition for son Bob Dudley when
he leaves his fathers university and
foot ball team to join that of the
rival institution. But if one can for
get certain weaknesses of detail, the
picture will afford genuine entertain
ment to the lover of sports in gen.
eral and foot ball in particular.
Jack Holt, as Uncle" Dudley,
makes a sufficiently hard-boiled
coach, despite his suave manners
and appearance, to delight the most
exacting of sportsmen. His hard
boiledness, in fact, overShadoWs his
relations as a father. making him
look upon his son just as another
foot ball player rather than SON."
