 CAPITOL'S BILL
Waterloo Bridge Day break" Mothers Mil-
 lions Scheduled

Waterloo Bridge" with Mae Clarke and Kent Douglas in the leading roles, will conclude it's run tonight at the Capitol theatre. tDaybreak," featuring H e n i Chandler and Ramon Novarro which will begin showing regularly next Friday, will be the subject of the preview matinee at l o'clock tonight.

 "Chinaware Night Tonight
 Tonight is '1Chinaware Night. " Every woma natending either of the performances tonight will be given a piece of Chinaware.
 Waterloo Bridge" includes a highly dangerous scene which stu dio officials requested Miss Clarke to refrain from playing and be re- placed by double"
 During a London afraid in the picture a terrific charge of dyna- mite is exploded on Waterloo Bridge as the litste actress crosses it. After several attempts, Director James Whale concluded that actual dyna- mite should be used unless realism was to be sacrificed, and he urged Miss Clarke to make way for a stunt actress"
 "Daybreak" is an adaptation of pr. Arthur Schnitzler's highly suc- cessful romance of Vienna before the war.
 The stellar character is It. Willi Kasda, debonair officer and love adventurer, played by Navarro. Love has been just game to him, until he meets Laura, enacted by Miss Chandler. He cannot marry her, because an impecunious officer must marry a wealthy girl.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Feb. 24.- Though I believe she still is un- reconciled to her contract, to the enforced spotlight of stardom and to the ways of Hollywood in gen. eral, Ann Harding is preparing to star her new picture, West ward Passage"
 Radio, via David SelNick, is doing everything to placate her, while naturally standing on its rights It has assigned John Halli- day to play one of her leading men in the Margaret Aver Barnes story. The other, you recall, is Laurence Olivier, the young Eng fish actor, who, through no effort of his own, was tabbed as a second Ronald Colman.
 Production will start in about two weeks.
 The case of Ann Harding is a curious one. Successful as a star handsomely remunerated, she pro-
 
 fesses a desire to be quit of pie lures, and she appears to be sincere. Ann is strong minded woman She held out long time for the veto power over her stories. Failing in this, she seems to have adopted a course of pass i've resistance.
 Through it all, her passion for privacy is growing more and more pronounced. She hates, perhaps more than any star I know, the publicity that goes with her posi- ton. Eventually. I believe. these resentments will drive her back to the stage-and a long time before her welcome with film audiences is worn out
