Held at Met

Philo Vance, s. s. Van Dimes
super -sleuth, personified on the
screen by william Powell, is
seen in his latest adventures,
''The Kennel Murder Case" held
for second week at the Metro
politan.
Vance. as usual. is involved in
a series of mysterious murders.
The clues are few, the motives
many, and it is the discerning
detective, aided by Sergea MT
Heath, who finds the solution
and uncovers the criminal.
William Powell, suave and ele-
CANT, plays Philo to perfection.
AS the redoubtable expert who
succeeds where others fail, who
tracks down the arch fiend, con-
summator of Archer Goes death.
Eugene Palette plays Sergeant
Heath, the faithful, but dumb
police officer, who takes credit
for everything. Since the incep-
ton of the Van Dine stories on
the screen, Palette has had the
same role in every film, which
should testify to his ability.
Included in the cast are Helen
Vinson, Mary Astor, Ralph Nor
gan and others, the majority Of
whom are suspected at one
time or another Of being the
perpertrator of the crime.
For detective story lovers, '"The
Kennel Murder Case" Is their

News Reel Hero
At Columbia

Headline Shooters" which
opened at Loew's Columbia The
ater yesterday, sets out to glorify
and about time, too-the in
trepid newsreel photographer.
He is shown grinding away at
a beauty contest, during an earth
quake, in the midst Of a brewery
fire and, for climax, the hero
risks his life to film a raging
flood. But about halfway through
the piece the picture suddenly
veers into feminine version Of
1.-THE Front Page"
Forgetting about the camera
man for awhile, the director
turns his attention to the valiant
sob sister who upholds the tradi-
tion that once a newspaper re-
porter always a newspaper re-
porter.
The newSreel man is imperSo-
mated by William Gargan. Fran
ces Dee is the lady reporter. They
work together, he with a camera
and she with typewriter, and
cover dangerous assignments.
One day, however, she decides
that the life is too hectic. She
tells the newsreel man she can't
marry him, explaining firmly
that she's going to quit the news
paper business because she pre-
fers security to excitement. Secur-
ity, in this instance, is repre-
sented by Ralph Bellamy, a
banker and Rotary chief from
down South.
And so, breathless readers, the
heroine stops in at the office both
to introduce her barker fiance to
the editor and to tell the boss
that she's leaving. But just at
this moment word comes in about
a big underworld killing.
The girl dashes off on the
story, gets herself kidnapped by
gunner and is rescued, not a sec
ond too soon, by the camera ace.
At which she tells the banker she
can't marry him, explaining gen
tly that she couldn't possibly
quit the newspaper business be,
cause she prefers excitement to
security.
It's an entertaining little melo.
drama that packs most of its
action in the final reels and in
cludeS several newSreel clips to
lend authenticity to the proceed
ings. The cast does satisfactory
work, with Jack LaRue popping
up in the role of a gangSter.

WHY NOT A LANDING FIELD?

II is rather a coincidence that 4
plane made successful forced land
ing on the Island just at time that
there has been considerable discussion
as to the necessity OF a landing field
here.
1t will probably be matter Of not
more than five or ten years until, II
we are to remain in the front OF
things that landing field will be i'm
perative. In the meantime several
pieces of property suitable for this
purpose are being divided up and to
purchase them later may be too eX-
pensive as to be prohibitive.
One piece of property is now for
ale at price ridiculously low. 1t
consists Of 40 acres and is so level that
& will need little expense in getting
ito proper shape.
1t is rumored that group of bust
ness men are about to investigate the
feasibility of obtaining an option on
one or more properties.
The wisdom of purchasing now when
real estate is low would seem appar-
ent, as well as the need for landing
field on the Island.
There have been several instances OF
visiting pilots being disappointed by
