Mullen Sisters Are
Real Close Relatives

They don't worry about it now,
but the Mullen Sisters, harmony
maids at Warner Bros. Earle this
week, used to wonder if they'd be
allowed to keep on working after
they'd start a performance. Be-
cause they were stopped once for
violating the child labor law in
Emporia, KanS. That was when
they were several years younger
land they're still young ladies
now.
But they began singing together
when the youngest was six and
the Oldest just twelve. In Kansas
City, Mo-, and other Missouri
towns and cities close by, they
used to appear at parties. What
is more, they really are sisters
one of the few actual sister acts
in theatrical work.

I think movie audiences will like
her enough to justify that $4,000

Collins and Peterson could come
back and play a week in Wash

partment chimed in with the
opinion that all Of the depression

Jungle KiI|er" "
New Columbia
Feature

Traditional African jungle tales
are, disproved by Carveth Wells in
his picture, jungle Killer" at
Loew's Columbia. The reputed
ferocity of the wild beasts that
roam the continent are mostly
imaginary stories, according to
the travel-talker, while the most
dangerous denizen of the land is
the explorer who kills for the So
called sport" of it.
It's told in a purely informal
and conversational manner, with
numerous shots of everyday life
in Tarzanland, not a few Of
which are seriously marred by
some notably poor photography.
This fault is explained by Wells
as due to the difficulty of light
ing when obtaining the nonsyn.
thetic variety of African scenes.
AS demonstrated in the film,
most of the animals are unobtru-
siVe, gentle. home-loving pets who
don't bother others, with the
ostrich glorified as the most
feared of the bunch. Excellent
spots in the numerous scenes in
clude monkey interlude, a lion
and hyena argument and some
pictures taken in the Ubangi vii
lagos, where the platter-rdouthed
girls live. The exploits of the
sportsman hunter are followed
during which Wells demonstrates
the uselessness of several killings.
A CORY elephant-meat feast and
the capture of a man by an en-
ragged lion are also in the timer.
ary. The accompanying dialogue
grows a little too informal at
times, with a feminine "stooge"
asking unimportant questions.
Still, Jungle Killer" remains as q
welcome relief after the plentiful
array of pictures which empha-
sized the perils of the under.

that audiences have been sullenly
resentful of the practice, >even
though the cause is very worthy,
helping the sick and distressed
actor.
Some other way will have to be
devised to keep the N. V. A. sana-
tarium at Saranac going. Prob
ably a big benefit where all thea
ters can contribute talent to the
program.
Speaking of benefits, it is Pat
Rooney-"D lighter of Rosie
O'Grady"-who sponsors a ma
tional movement to wipe out the
benefit abuse. He claims it has
become a racket. That is, shows
are promoted, the actor helps out
what he thinks is a charity, dis
covers some promoter has taken
the bulk of the receipts. What
Actor Rooney offers as a solution
is a national benefit association
which will pass upon requests for
talent. It will o. K. those that
are just, exact a small portion of
the receipts for actor charities. A
step in the right direction.

He must live in Egypt six

His cars are the last word and
he buys a yacht whenever he
feels in the mood. He can go
to New York, to Hollywood, to
London, to Paris-and be as

in these cities. And when he
tires of those places, he can re-
turn to his magnificent home on

Paramount Settles
George Rats
Squabble
BY HARRISON CARROLL
Copyright, 1888, King Features
Syndicate Inel

HOLLYWOOD, March 81.
Peace reigns once more between
Paramount and George Raft.
The star returns here about the
9th to take up his work in The
Trumpet Blows"
While the settlement of the
dispute has not been unexpected
in Hollywood, definite news is the
cause of satisfaction both at the
studio and among Georges
friends.
Thanks to the fact that the
actors manager, Nat Goldstone,
never allowed money to become
an issue in the fight, this matter
can, and will, be taken up with
both parties in an amiable frame
of mind.
Meanwhile George won his
main point. He did not have to
appear in "The Story of Temple
Drake"
In his new story, an original
by Oliver H. P. Garrett and
Porter Emerson Browne, the star
plays a young Mexican who re-
fuses to follow family tradition
and become bull-fighter. He
takes up dancing instead and
falls in love with an American
girl (Miriam Hopkins. Jack La
Rue, as printed heretofore, will
play Rats brother in the pro-
duction.
And, to save Paramount a lot
Of abuse, there will be no bull
fight scenes in the picture. Not
long ago, a certain Hollywood
studio announced a bull fight
story and received thousands of
indignant letters.

A Broadwayite
1 met the prince while cross
ing from Turkey to Egypt and
he proved to be a decidedly good
friend. Strange the way we met,
though. 1 remembered that a
certain Prince Ally Ibrahim,
from Egypt, was a frequent visl-
tor to New York. That partlcu-
lar prince knew his Broadway
in all directions, and had played
host to a number of prominent
Showgirls on many occasions:
There was no reason why the
Prince Ibrahim on this small
Turkish boat should prove to be
the same prince who had made
so many showgirls happy on
Broadway. But I was lonesome,
and there's nothing like taking
q chance. So l had the prince
pointed out to me and I walked
over to him.
"You know New York, don't
you?" my opening remark.
"Wish I was there now" was
his reply.
Think I know you, prince"
was my next crack. MY names
Hellinger. If I'm not mistaken,
you like your Broadway"
He shook hands, and sighed.
Like it?" he murmured like
q true Egyptian. I'm nuts about
it."
And from that moment on the
prince was my buddy. He treated
me royalty while I was in Egypt
and assisted me in every posi-
BILE fashion.
The prince is a strange study.
He is but 80 years of age, even
though he looks much older. He
is unmarried, although he has
been on the verge on any num-
ber of occasions. He has his
own boxing instructor, exercises
a great deal and is in perfect
health.
