HOLLYWOOD, May 6 CNANA)-
The first and greatest test of audience
sophistication will be experienced by
Hollywood when THE Warriors Hus-
baNd" is released Here, superbly d.
recrA3 and photographed, made with q
production lavishness which gives it the
usual appeal movies must have, Is a
story Of a humorous reversal of sex
characteristics in tale located in the
kingdom Of the AmaZons, those female
warriors who usurped the ways of men
and who despised the weaker and Ito
them) less attractive SEX
1t would be hard to find any more
eye-filling performance than ELISA
IIandi's-Or a more riotous queen of the
Amazons than Marjorie Rambeau, who
in sturdy beauty and imperiousness
contributed some priceless humor to
this satire. Ernest Truex-star of
''Whistling in the Dark'-is the Ely-like
husband Of the Amazon queen, and
David Manners has a small part as the
boy with whom the young warrior
Landi, falls in love. Maude Eberne as
funny orderly of the Amazon troops
and some priceless humor contributed
by the Shock Troops" Of the warrior
group, ladies of six feet or so weighing
an easy two hundred, will give you an
evening Of fine laughs
There Is a tendency on the part of
! studios to get their new pictures of
sound stages as often as possible Per-
haps some Of this is due to unpleasant
criticism won by a recent release made
by a producer who feels that keeping
the picture under roof is the ideal way

COMEDY HELD OVER
FOR A SECOND WEEK
Pitts and Summerville Continue
With Screen Farce, "Out All
Night" at the Rialto.

Slim Summerville and Zasu Pitts,
Universals duo of sad-eyed comedy,
continue that prolonged and highly
disturbed honeymoon, and handle the
difficult problem Of what to do when
mother or mother -in-law decides to
accompany bridal pair on their we'd
ding trip in true Summervillian-Pitt
style this week in their latest comedy.
'Out All Night" which has been held
over at the Rialto
The lack of a good comedy vehicle
does not seem to matter much where
this pair is concerned, for Miss Pitts
waiting fish-like motion of her hand
or Summerville's blank physiogonomy
inevitably produce that chuckle from
their admirers whenever flashed on the
screen. In some instances the dia-
logue of this film is humorous, but for
the most part it relies on the slap
stick antics of this "dead-pan" couple.
It is these antics, coupled with those
of Laura Hope Crews, that produce
the majority of those highly adver-
tised laughs.
When Mr.. summeryille plunges
around in that clumsy, lanky way SO
looks forlorn, he is infinitely more
giggle-provoking than any of those
shady lines. And it is when Laura
Crews "a runner-up on Floyd Gibbons)
talks or cries. or when Zasu Pitts
swings that hand so gently to and
fro and emits that peeping groan, that
the film is at its most humorous mo-
ments
AS for the continuity, it is series
Of embarrassing complications into
which one might expect this couple
to become involved. and ranges from
being locked all night in bed room
display room in a store to getting their

RAIN DE- VICE

WHITTIER, Calf, Feb. 2. WP)--
A new Robbie the Rainmaker" has
appeared here, in the heart of the
Southern California orange belt.
where he is rather more welcome
than the flowers in May if he
can produce.
He is William Haight, Los An
geles inventor, designer of the
"electrodome, an impressive ap-
paratus calculated to produce rain
almost at need
The invention is a large genera
tor and projection equipment
mounted on an 80-foot tower.
It's theory is that rain is caused
naturally by diminution in the
flow of electrical currents in the
air The intention of the electro
dome" is artificially to produce this
diminution by the projection Of
negative currents.
Haight claims excellent results
six years ago with much less pow
erful equipment. He now believes
his machine, mounted in heights
OF Turnbull canyon on the edge of
a large citrus region, will produce
rain for radius of three miles.

Brothers Escape
Legal Death

MT. VERNON, O., Feb. 2. U.P)-
Matthew Eckenrode, So, and his
brother, George, SIS, came within
40 days of being declared legally
dead"
The younger brother appeared in
court here recently to bring a dra-
matte end to proceedings, already
sanctioned, which would have de-
clared the pair dead in the eyes of
the law.
Their sister, Mrs Mary Agnes
King, of Howard. O., had not heard
from Matthew for 35 years, or from
George for Is years. all attempts to
find them had failed. She filed a
motion seeking to have them de-
clared legally dead in order that a
legacy of 81 500 might be divided.
A hearing was held and the decree
was issued to become effective Jan.
Z.
But for some reason which he
cannot explain, Matthew wrote his
sister letter on Election Day from
Ell Paso. Three days later, anoth-
er sister received a letter from
brother George, who was i'll in Cal
ifornia. Apprised of the situation,
Matthew hurried here to prove
that he was still alive and George
sent affidavitS to accomplish the
same purpose.

WOMAN JUDGE
GIVES VIEWS

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 2. U.D
Legal fields for women are wid-
ening, Judge Genevieve Cline, only
woman federal judge in the Uni
ted States, believes. She is i'm San
Francisco on circuit.
The law is a jealous mistress" f"
Judge Cline said, but there is nc
reason why woman cannot sue
ceed in the legal profession as we'll
as man. The law is difficult. 1t
needs ones whole allegiance. But
woman who devoteS herself to it
can make success of 1t and op-
portunities for women in the law
constantly are growing"
She pointed out that a woman,
who contemplates the legal profess
sion, must choose between that pro-
fession as a career, and marriage,
as a career
This is not q matter of gem
der she said. 1T would be as diff
ficult for a man to keep house
and raise children and carry on
legal career as for a woman"
One of the delights of the PRO
fession, Judge Cline declared, Is
that one can continue studying law
and practicing it all ones life.
Judge Cline will preside over some
5000 customs cases during her as
signment here. She practiced law
with her brother, Judge John A.
Cline, Of Cleveland, until 1922,
when President Harding appointed
her U. S. Customs Appraiser for
Ohio. ta 49,

pointed her first woman judge of

Reno Calls on All Farmers to Join
Strike, Urges Concerted Action

criticized the Federal Govern
ment's relief programs, asserting
that prices obtained for farm
products have failed to attain the
cost of production levels prom
ised.
Previous to the national holi-
day call, the Minnesota associa-
ton returned majority of votes
in favor of halting deliveries to
market, although Gov. Floyd B.
Olson refused to join in the
wheat embargo movement insti-
tuted in North Dakota.
The strike proclamation came
close on the heels of Governor
Charles w. Bryan's assertion in
Lincoln, Neb., that "the farmers
throat is being cut from ear to
ear" under the national recovery
program.
Governor Bryan further stated
that "the unrest of the nation is
increasing and the prices of the
farmers products is decreasing"
