WALLACE BEERY STAR or. "FLESH" PLAYS WRESTLING CHAMP IN DRAMATIC OPEN- ING AT POLL PALACE

Although "Grand Hotel" Is now history, Wallace Beery tarries at the scene of his triumph in Flesh his new Metr0-G Goldwyn- Mayer starring vehicle,' which comes Sun day to the Poli Palace theater. Like Grand Hotep' this grip ping drama of the wrestling ring opens in Germany But where the whole of the former story was laid in that country, Flesh" eventual ly brings Beery back to America, where he finds the heartaches fsnd joys of winning a worlds cham pionship.
 The story's wrestling atmos- phere invites a comparison be- tween sport in other countries and the attitude of commercial pro- motors here. Starting as 8 wres- tling waiter in 8 beer garden, Beery wins tn championship of Germany, but when he crosses the Atlantic in quest of larger honors he runs afoul of conditions which smack of the well known racket.
 Beery has to fight his way to Il square deal, even at the hands of Karen Morley and Ricardo Cortez, who have the leading roles in SUD- port of the star. Others of note in the cast are Jean Hersholt. John Milan, Vince Barnett. Herman Bing, Edward Brophy and Greta Meyer.
 John Ford of "Arrowsmith" fame. directed "Flesh.' 7 which was adapted from an original story by Edmund Goulding, who, incl dentally, directed Beery in Grand Hotel"

1.-THE SPORT PA1sADE' WITH
 JOEL McCREA ON DOUBLE
 FEATURE BILL AT STATE.
 Warner Brothers State presents a deluxe double feature program to-day and tomorrow in No More Orchids'' and "The Sport Parade" The former, featuring beautiful Carole Lombard, is a shimmering story that shows the pathos and the sacrifice behind the gleaming marble fronts of Park avenue penthouses, tracing the brilliant and carefree life of a social debutante who suddenly be- comes serious when she comes face to face with the live and real emotion of love. The plot is ex- cellent and the dialogue smart and sophisticated. The supporting cast includes Lyle Talbot Walter Con- molly, Louise Closser Hale and other stage and screen favorites.
 The companion feature "The Sport Parade" stars Joel McCrea with Marian Marsh and William Gargan. 'The Sport Parade" spe- cializes in no particular sport but utilizes all as a background for a down-to-earth sincere love story about two boys, inseparable pals through prep school and college. and & girl.
 An entirely new technique in combining background ando story, so that one never intrudes upon nor dominates the other, has been developed Tn the picture by Dud- ley Murphy, the director, who worked from script on which the noted humomists, Robert Bench ley and Corey Ford collaborated.
 The high spots of the six-day bicycle races as staged annually at Madison Square Garden; of cham pionship wrestling and boxing matches, and of the big college games have been skillfully inter- woven into the production.
