NEW FAIRBANKS
MOVIE AT PALACE

Forty Polynesians and Chinese,
uncanny artisans, solved big prob
lem for the Douglas Fairbanks COM
pany on the islands of Tahiti and
Moorea, where Doug made scenes
for Mr.. Robinson Crusoe," which
is now on view at Loew's Palace for
an exclusive indianapolis engage
ment.
1t tells sustained story and is
not, as believed, travelogue.
The picture deals with the adven-
lures of a modern Robinson Crusoe
who forsakes civilization and riches
to prove that even in this day and
age man can work out his saliva
ton on desert island with only
his wit, his bare hands and a
sense of humor. All that Robinson
Crusoe did, Doug does, and more.
In fact, of his own free will he
exiles himself on a small South Seas
island, landing with nothing but the
clothes on his back and dog, and
eventually building penthouse
with all the comforts of home, in
Guiding hot and cold running water,
a valet, named Friday the Thir-
teenth," and a lively romance with
a girl named Saturday"
Where the forty Polynesians and
Chinese artisans came in was con-
structing from cocoanuts, sea shells,
sawfish, etc., all the ingenious i'm
plements used by Doug in his
Crusoe castle.
Mr.. Robinson Crusoe" is an
I, original story from the pen of the
well-known Tom Geraghty and is
based upon the famous Defoe char
acter. Edward Sutherland, one of
Hollywood's best comedy producers,
directed.
Included in the cast are Marie

William Farnum.

WILL ROGERS is
STAR AT THE APOLLO

Inc simple virtues ana money
philosophy of real Americans are
thought to be extolled by Will Rog-
ers in TOO Busy to Work" a
touching drama of everyday people,
which, with Rogers in the featured
role, is the current attraction at the
Apollo.
Rogers is seen in the role of a
whimsical tramp, whose chief aim
in life is to find his wife and daugh-
ter and the man who stole them
from him. This takes him from
place to place, until he discovers his
wife has died and his daughter is
living under the roof of his enemy
When he finds them, he does not
resort to the conventional method,
of handling the situation. His toll
erance and love dictate an entirely
different course, influenced, no
doubt, by the fact that the girl is
enjoying a romance with the son
of the man who stole her.
Marian Nixon, remembered for
her work in Amateur Daddy" and
"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm"
portrays the role of Rogers daughter
to whom he never reveals himself.

John Gilbert is starred in "West

HAMILTON THEATER

II IL a remarkable coincidence,
but nevertheless true, that the first
dramatic stage role ever secured
by Miriam Hopkins was opposite
Frederic March, with whom she
appears in "Dr Jekyll and Mr.
Hyde" under the direction Of
Reuben Mamoulian, which Is the
Hamilton theater's feature picture
for Sunday and Monday.
March himself was just begin
ming his stage career at the time,
and Miss Hopkins, who had played
successfully In musical comedy,
wished to get into dramatic work.
Producers offered her musical
comedy parts, but they did not con-
slider her dramatic ambitions SER
ious.
Her opportunity finally came
when 1.-THE Puppets" was about to
open In New York. It had been
tried out on the road as 1.-THE Mar
ionette Man." with Claudette Col
bert and March, later Paramount
Aim stars. as the juvenile leads.
Producers, however, sought to
change the girl type played as an
italian by Miss Colbert They
wanted q blonde girl, SO Miss Col
bert stepped out of the part for
others and future stage and screen
fame.
Miss Hopkins was placed in the
role and was so successful as the
sweetheart OF March that she re-
manned in dramatic parts thereaf-
ter.

hard riding band of unromantic COW

horses in Southeastern Arkansas for
purely practical purposes.
The Jingle of silver spurs is missing
There is no flourish of six-guns Dogs,
modern corrals and drift fences have
replaced braided rawhide ropes. And
captive animals may wind up pulling a
pillow instead of in the remuda of an
Indian n-dodging rancher or trapper.
These modern cowboys, most of them
plainly clad in overalls, are making the
drive as a part of the Federal and
State tick eradication program.
Vats and corrals have been con-
structed in Chicot and Desha Counties,
where the wild horses roam the Swa11fpS
and canebreaks, and the animals
caught are dipped to prevent them from
carrying ticks, given to their captor or
sold to defray expenses Of the roundup.
Farmers captured many of the wild
horses when food waters isolated and
hemned in the bands earlier this year.
Only comparatively few remain.
w. A. Mcdonald, inspector of the
Federal Bureau of Animal Industry
here, said a final drive had been
launched to capture the remainder OF
the horses determination of the bands,
he explained, is necessary to the tick

NEW YORK, April Rev. DR.. Ben
jamin Clark Warren, 72. climaxed so
years in the pulpit yesterday by en-
hvening the Annual Conference of New
York Methodist Ministers with what
he called an expose of the inside story
Of Methodism."
The elderly preacher. who recently
announced his retirement in the Meth
odist Episcopal Church at Cold Spring,
" Y, held forth in the Park Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church for an
hour, and urged the general convention
10 curtan the appeintive power of its
bishops.
Stuns Fellow Preachers.
While his fellow clerics SIT stunned
ne gave instances in which he said he
had been threatened with discipline by
the bishops, shunted to small churches
and generally subordinated because of
his non-conformist teachings and writ
ines.
At length Or. Christian F.. Reisner,
pastor of the Broadway Temple Metho-
dist Church and chairman of the
Church Advertising Committee of the
New York Advertising Club, interrupted.
IT think it would be we'll for the
conference to realize he remarked,
''that If this gets into the newspapers
1t will get out all over the country"
Allowed More Time.
An ensuing debate on whether DR..
Warren should be permitted to talk be-
yofd the time limit finally led Presid-
ing Bishop Charles l.. Mead of Chicago
10 put the question to a vote It was
overwhelmingly decided that DR.. War
1en should be given an additional hour
for his parting address just preceding
the report of the Evangelistic Commit
tee.
The minister said later he was twice
put under pressure for his unorthodox
views. Once he wrote book entitled
''In the Land of the Romberg" a de-
nunciation of wealthy parishioners, and
again he was advised to leave the pas
torate of the Union Methodist Episcopal
Church because he spent too much
time with the young people.
