Cover Crop Time

Cover crops help rlpen the wood
of orchard trees in preparation for
winter. They also add humus TO
the soil when turned under and hold
fallen leaves In the orchard to add
more humus. Another important
duty of cover crops is to protect the
tree roots against winter freezing
and to hold now In the orchard as
a protective blanket for the roots.
Cover crops which live through the
winter help to prevent soil washing
and conserve ~nltrates. but their
greatest disadvantage lies In the
fact that they make most of their
growth In the spring when they take
moisture and plant food away from
the trees Among plants used for
cover crops to be sowed In the or
chard or vineyard are: buckwheat,
barley. rye. millet. vetch and peas.

Radio City To Be
1mmorta!ized
in Films
BY HARRISON CARROLL
Copyright, 1888. King Features
Syndicate. Incl

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 21.-Out Of
the countless spires Of stone and
steel, there always has been one
building which perSonified New
York to the visitor.
Reflecting on this yesterday,
H. N. Swanson, ex-Broadwayite,
suddenly was struck with an idea.
The Woolworth Building has had
its day, the Empire State is an
old story. Why not Radio City as
successor? And why not a pic
ture based on this mighty monu-
ment to the arts?
With every writer in Hollywood
trying to hit on topical ideas.
Swanson lost no time in making
for the office Of David Selznick,
head man Of RKO, where he
works.
Rapidly. he sketched the posi-
bilitieS Of such a background; the
chance to use radio stars, the op-
portunity for spectacle, the occa-
sion for q hundred Interviewing
dramas.
Radio City will be immortal
lied in celluloid as well as in
stone. ..

Robbers Roost'
Is Exciting

Robbers Roost," a Western
melodrama from q Zane Grey
novel, is providing round Of
thrilling sequences at the Colum-
bia Theatre. A regular tale with
red-blooded hero, a lovely hero
inc. a bad man, and all the pre-
Scribed embellishments, make this
an AL cattle-rustling yarn.
George O'Brien, famed for
daring and spectacular hprSeman-
ship, finds ample occasion for
one hair-raiSing stunt after an
other. The dashing way he rides
and jumps his mount over that
treacherouS mountain country is
sufficient justification for a stop
over at the Columbia.
Skillful riding and hazardous
jumping, q cattle stampede, not
to mention the abduction and
rescue Of the charming daughter
(Maureen O'Sullivan) of the
ranch owner are highlightS In q
performance that fairly bristles
with action. The very triteneSS
Of the plot is in this case an
added attraction, the very acme
of a true and tried cowboy
roundelay.
Tempering the forceful and
dominant story, a bit Of enriching
humor is adroitly introduced
through the portly person Of a
deaf aunt, capably portrayed by
the inimitable Maude Eburne
Reginald Owen and William Paw
ley add zeSt with excellent char
acterizationS.
A comedy of more than ordi
nary merit heads the supple
mental features. Hockey. a game
which still has not been worked
beyond the limit Af human endur1
ance, provides the background
for q round of amusing episodes
which, by the way, end before
reaching that tiresome stage. A
news real and an animated car
toon complete the program.

With more or less sad farewell

ITO have lyrics and some Of the
Ernst Lubitsch directorial magic.
Having neither it becomes a
pleasant routine narrative that
seldom sounds genuine and is
about the poorest exhibit Of the
Noel Coward authorial handiwork
yet revealed in America.
Colbert Is Failure
The picture is adapted from
Coward's play, '"The Queen Was
in the Parlor'' and concerns in
the usual way the troubles of
royalty when they become 70
mantically attached to common
ers. This one is precisely the
same as 100 others and not
helped much by the fact that
Claudette Colbert seldom looks
like a queen and falls flat in her
emotional scenes.
Frederic March is painfully
handsome and too much like a
musical comedy Romeo to be ef-
fective. Arthur Byron plays
frozen faced general with all the
seriousness of a ham actor.
Stuart Walkers direction is
founded on when in doubt a

Comedy cam
at Keith's

"The Penguin Pool Murder now
showing at Keith's started out as
a startling murder mystery in the
novel, but when Edna May Oliver
and James Gleason get together
in solving it the crime serves only
as q background and an apt op-
portunity for Miss Oliver and Mr..
Gleason to display their comedy
wares.
Here we have Miss Oliver as a
school "marm" hailing from Iowa
on an innocent jaunt with her
pupils through the New York city
aquarium. The day picks up a
little interest when Miss Oliver
trips up a fleeing pickpocket with
her umbrella. Then while en-
crossed in watching the antics Of
a penguin a mans body suddenly
falls into the pool. James Glea-
son as Inspector Piper arrives on
the scene and from there on it
is a full and highly entertaining
film even without the added ad-
vantage Of murder in a place
where even fish have no privacy.
The remainder Of the cast is well
chosen and handle their parts to
good advantage to provide the ir.
trigue and mystery behind every
film Of this nature. These include
Mae Clarke, Donald Cook, Robert
Armstrong and Clarence Heming-
way.
All these, however, are subSi-
died in the combination Of two
highly distinctive screen person
alties, caustic and humorous dia-
logue which they handle with
their own unique facial contor-
tionS most especially on the part
Of Miss Oliver, gifted by nature

lures with one of the old time

There I Shivered. at any mo-

alma martyr. There I was,
practically petrified. And there
stood Mr.. Cozine outside the
bars, yelling for more action!
The other beasts, sensing
something unusual and evil
IDENTIFY annoyed by the lights,
began a terrific racket. Lions,
tigers, 1eopardS, pumaS, wild
cats joined in an ever-increaS-
ing chorus of highly alarming
cries. One Of the leopardS in
my cage stood up suddenly and
batted the keeper with his paw.
The other one looked at me
and crouched as if to spring.
That, picture or no picture,
was more than enough for Hell
linger. With far more nervous
ness than sense, I aimed a we'll
directed kick at the leopard,
pushed open the gate, tumbled
out of the cage and closed the
gate behind me. The keeper
followed Immediately after.

'In this part of the world, it
most certainly is. It seems also
that you are going to do some
work this afternoon. Are you
well insured?"
Whats that?" I cried. did
you ask me if I were insured?"
Exactly" he retu rned.
"You're going out to the Berlin
zoo and you're getting into a
cage with a couple Of South
African leopards. Isn't that
great?"
I peered at him suspiciously.
Ray" I chirped, haven't I
warned you often enough to
stay away from my cognac? A
young fellow like you-"
"Stop talking mons ense.
Mark" he interrupted impa-
tiently. I'm serious, and you
know it. You're getting into q
cage with those leopards, and
well stagea a little scene. I've
got permission from the zoo
and the keeper"
'"That's fine" I returned.
"That will help a lot. But the
main thing I want to find out
Is whether you got permission
from the leopards?"
He glared at me, began to say
something-and evidently de-
cided that it wouldn't be worth
the trouble.
"I'll be back in 20 minutes"
was all he muttered. BE ready"
