 Tho all-star east also features Conrad Nagel, Arthur Byron, War burton Gamble, Kenneth Thomson, Albert Gran and Ben Hendricks.
 The companion feature is to be "Mr Robinson Crusoe" starring Douglas Fairbanks.
 The picture was mado In It's en- tirety in the South Seas, and the star and his company have sue- eeeded admirably In catching the mood and flavor of that garden paradise. With tho exception of four principal players, natives are seen in most of tho action, and those natural actors demonstrate anew that drama is instinctiyo with them. One would think, in fact that they had been trained for months for. their roles.
 "Mr Robinson Crusoe" concerns Itself with an adventurous young sportsman who makes a wager that
 Q can subsist upon a desert island with no assistance from civilization In other word, ho can successfully duplicate the life of Defoo's famous character. Not only does he suc- ceed In winning his bet, but he ,unearths several other complica- tons, such as a hand-t0.hand con. filct with q head-hVnter, battles with cannibais and the capture Of Q beautiful native maiden in one of his traps.

HELEN HAYES AND RAMON NOVARRO ARE CO-STARRED IN "THE SON.DAUGHT'icR"
Opens Thursday at Palace m,

opens Thursday at Palace The- ater.
 "The son-Daughtor', eolorfui drama of San Francisco's China. town, with Helen Hayes and Ra- mon Novarro in the principal roles is the talkio attraction opening Thursday at tho Palace Thoater. Tho picture, . dramatic romance of tho struggle of Chinese revoiu- tionists md royaiists in America, IS based on tho well-known David BelaBeo stage hit In which Lenore Uric created ono of her most sue- eessful roles.
 The plot ot "The Son. Daughter" deals with q Chinese girl. in love with Q Chinese prince who is in Ameriea incegnito. As a result of political intrigue she Is auctioned Into marriage In order to raise funds for the Chinese revolution, ROyalist .spies learn of tho pros ceedings, and the highbindor to whom tho girl iS sold Kills her fa. ther and wounds her love. She, however, proves herself more than match for the plotters. and m ingenious twist in tho drama en. nbles her to Blny tho highbinder and to rescue the prince. In the end, they mako their escape to-. gether to China.
 Won Highest Honor
 Tho picture marks tho first screen appearance oE Miss Hayes since she was awarded the Acad. cmy of Motion Picture Arts and Scienees' honor for the best per- formance of m actress during the past year. A distinguished sup- Stone, Wnrncr oiand, Ralph Nor. II. B. Warner. Lesser roles are filled by Frederick Burt, Edward McWadc, William Burress, Dell Henderson and Sumner Gotcheil. Tho film was directed by Clarence Brown, who was responsible for many of Greta Carlos hits, and whose last production was the Crawford Gable co-starring suc- cess, "Letty Lynton,"
 "Thc Son. Daughter" is said to have required construction or q number Of unusually elaborate set. tlngs depicting various typical Chinatown locales. Joss houses. gambling dens and San Francisco's s catacombs are among the scenes reproduced, and the settings also include ambitious reproductions Of colorfui Chinese marriage ritualg, Oriental celebrations and the ne- farious tong wars.
 Listed as Thigh spots" of the picture are the dramatic sacrlnce of the Chinese girl for her coun- try; the auctioning of the bride; inc wedding ceremony with the great Chinese dragon carried on the shoulders of a hundred bear ers; tho oath of vengeance before the joss; tho episode in which Miss Hayes strangies the highbinder with his own queue, and the escape of the lovers to their native land.

Analysing tho bidding further, remember that South definitely knew that North held only four diamonds. Certainly he would not b0 asking North to try and mako fivo diamonds on n four.eard suit. therefore South, in his jump bid of three diamonds, was asking North to bid either three no trump or to try 10 support tho heart suit even if he must do 50 with an honor and one card. He certainly would not ask North to support with that weak holding unless he held Ut least q good fiVe-enrd suit.
 The Play
 The play of tho hand is as fol- lows; West opens tho jack of clubs which East wins with tho ace. East returns tho nine of clubs, the deeiarer plays tho six. West over. takes with the ten and immediately returns tho king, East discnrding he five of spades, which immo. lately warns tho deelarer that snst is attempting to shorten hlm- self in that suit.
 West continues with the seven Of clubs. While 1t will give tho do- eiarer a'sluM ruff, 1t may also give his partner q valuable discard.
 The deeiarer dlseards q small spade from dummy, East does the snme and South, the declarer. trumps with the four of hearts.
 Declarcr leads the queen Of spades, oyertaling in dummy with tho acc of spades. The drop of the ten spot by East further warns him that East is now probably out of spades.
 The jack of hearts Is now led from dummy, East refuses to cover and the declarcr takes the finessc. Again East refuses to cover and the declarer illnesses tho ten. The drop of Vests ninc marks West out of hearts.
 Declarer must now be careful not to lead a' spade, or East will ruff. Ue should lead the king of dia- monds and make n mental note of the drop of the nine spot by West.
 He continues with small dia- mond. Vests jack of diamonds marking him out of diamonds, NO the deciarcr continues with the queen of diamonds from dummy, West discardIng the six of spades.
 Now the good eight of diamonds is led from dummy and declarer discards the seven Of spades. He then leads spade from dummy. East, having nothing left but the king and eight of hearts, is forced to trump with the eight of hearts.
 Sout, the declarer, overtrumps with the queen of hearts and wins the last trick with the ace of hearts, completing simple coup in order to make his contract of fcur odd.
 It is one of the neatest plays in bridge and one that requires good card reading and proper timing. (Copyright 1888. NEA Service Incl
