PICKFORD FILM AT FOX
All In q Day
MANHATTAN HOLIDAY
BY
MARK HELLINGER

Ecstatic would be the only
way to describe Gracie's feeling
when she arrived in the city
of New York She had saved
for, dreamed about and awaited
longingly the two weeks vaca-
ton that was to be spent in
this strange town. Now the
long bus ride was over at last
and two weeks of glorious city
life were before her.
The lights enchanted her.
The traffic thrilled and ter
rified her. 1t was all every bit
as wonderful as she had pic
tured it. True, it had been
necessary for her to come alone.
True, the state of her finances
forced her to find a room in a
cheap, side-street hotel. But
such things were mere trifles.
She was in New York.
Stays In Hotel
1t was evening when she ar
rived, and, in spite of her desire
to mingle with the crowds, she
was tired from the long trip.
She had seen a sign in the ele-
vator announcing that dinner
was being served in the reStau-
rant downstairs, and she decided
that, for tonight at least, she
would eat there.
It was just an ordinary res .
taurant such as can be found in
almost any cheap hotel. But to
Oracle it was beautiful.
Then there was a man who
came in and sat down opposite
her and stared at her intently.
He was a homely, thick-necked
sort of bird, and his hands were
the size of catchers' mits. But
to Oracle that night, all the
men in New York were hand
some and gallant. And when
he spoke to her, Oracle did
something that she had never
done at home. She smiled, an
Swered him graciously, and in
the short space of 10 minutes
a friendship was well under way.
The man, whose name was
Bill, was living at the hotel, too,
he told her, and before he left
her at the elevator, she had
promised to meet him the next
day and go on a sightseeing
tour.
The week that followed was
all too wonderful. Every day at
noon she met Bill in the lobby
and they toured the city to-
gether. Oracle was tumbling
rapidly. and she was quite sure
that Bill was falling as fast as
she.

Mary Pickford
Stars in Fox
Program

Secrets" exquisite story Of two
whose perfect understanding and
love withstood the destructiveness
of time and the tide of national
growth and change, is brought to
the screen for a second time and
in this instance, aided by the new
est in lighting, sound and pho
Biography, and with Mary Pickford
and Leslie Howard playing the
leads, becomes a screen achieve
ment. It is now showing at the
Fox.
The story is old and sentimen-
tai, but you'll like it. A young
man, poor but honest, loves his
employers daughter, lovely
creature gently reared; they elope
and, taking Greeley's advice, go
West, into that almost unbroken
empire of cattle thieves and hard
ship. They cross rivers, valleys,
mountains, their courage strong,
their hopes high, and so they
come to the Golden State of Cali
fornia, choose hilltop for a home
site and settle down to make his
tory. They grow, as their chill
dren do, with this grand new
country they have developed, and
as they reach the fulfillment of
their dreams, they turn back to
their secrets of joy and sorrow
and live again, in retrospect, those
first perfect years of young love.
Mary Pickford, still Americas
sweetheart, plays a role, much to
her liking, with fire and spirit;
Leslie Howard, a bit too sensitive
for so rugged a background, plays
with his usual finish. The sup
port includes list of well-knoWn
names, Blanche Frederici, C. Aub-
rey Smith, Huntley Gordon, Ned
Sparks.
On the stage Smith Ballew and
his orchestra play popular tunes
and feature a quartet of har-
monizers; Harry and Frank Sea-
man, comic tumblers, delight the
youngsters; Bernice and Emily do

batic dances and Rex Weber sings,

} The little-known horrors of the
war in the water are strikingly
pictured, the photography being
exceptionally noteworthy. A COM
petent cast enacts the various
roles. Robert Montgomery, as the
lieutenant, in a more serious part
than is his wont, does eXcellently,
as does Walter Huston as the
stern-visaged commander. Madge
Evans provides pictorial lowell
ness, and Jimmie Durante, ably
assisted by Eugene Palette, pro-
vides relieving humor. The other
players lend able support.
On the bill are also included
a sports reel, in which Pete Smith
describes the perils of motor-car
racing; cartoon, and the Hearst
Metrotone News, presenting the
latest and most timely topics.
Many members of official
Washington circles attended the
performance last night, when
Hell Below was ushered in with
lights, music and Hollywood
atmosphere. Led by the Secre-
tary of Navy and Mrs. Claude
Swanson, and the Secretary of
Labor, Miss Frances Perkins,
other notables who attended were

Naval Affairs Committee, and

Star in Hell Below" at Palace

Ruthless submarine warfare
forms the exciting background for
Hell Below" which opened yes
terday at Loew's Palace, with
Robert Montgomery, Walter Hus-
ton, Madge Evans and Jimmy
Durante heading the large cast.
More particularly, the story con-
Germs itself with the love affair
of a sub lieutenant and a mar
ried woman, whose father COM
mands the undersea boat. While
entertaining in itself, this plot
is often overshadowed by the
thrilling scenes of life in and
around the craft which patrols
a channel during the past war.
Tom Knowlton falls in love
with the wife of a paralyzed flier.
After the girls father discovers
the intrigue, Knowlton loses his
pal in a battle, when the boat is
forced to submerge while a small
party of men from it are left
in a rowboat on the sea. Later,
while scouting for enemy ships,
they again sight the craft sur
rounded by the foe. Against or
ders, Knowlton commands the
totpedoes fired. precipitating an
ocean fight, ultimately grounding
them on the bottom. When the
submarine at last reaches port,
the lieutenant is courtmartialed
and stripped of his command.
At first declaring his intention
to take his sweetheart away with
him, he is later convinced that
her place is with her disabled
husband, and so leaves, slowing
away on the "pigboat" and fin
ally driving himself to destruc-
ton for the good of the cause"

Players rs to Give
Broadway Hit

Entering the fifth week Of their
current season the National The
ater Players will, Monday night,
May %, bring us one of the most
talked-of and successful plays OF
the year, Rose Franken'S Another
Language"
Another Language" comes to
Washington with the most envi-
able record of a solid seasons run
in New York in what has been
generally conceded as the worst
year the legitimate theater has
ever known. The New York press
and theatergoers united in &C
claiming this play, one critic say
ing, "It's a long time since there
has been such a worthy and hon
eSt-to-goodness play, it's so honest
it hurts"
It's about the four Hallam
brothers who, every Tuesday, drag
their unwilling wives to a family
gathering at their mothers house.
The usual family complications
set in which all of us will i'm
mediately recognize as having at
one time or another happened in
our lives. While this accounts
for the plays real appeal it is so
well written that it narrowly es-
capped being awarded the Pulitzer
Prize for 1888,
The entire roster of the players
will be called on to enact
the piece-Leona Powers, Donald
Woods, Kathryn Givney, Romaine
Calender, Adelaide Hibbard, For
rest Orr, Freddie Sherman, Ona
Munson, Burke Clarke, and Karl
Nielsen.

} little about marriage with Bill.
But she knew, under those cir
cumstances, that it could never
be.
Finally, she succeeded in
pushing the thoughts out of
her mind. And the days passed
until there were but two days
left of her vacation.
She and Bill were going to
a SpeakeaSy that afternoon.
They were sitting at a table
in a dim corner when a man
standing at the bar turned, rec
ognized Bill and waved a hand
in greeting.
"H'ya, Killer?" he called.
Gracie's blood ran cold at the
sound of that name, and the
last faint hope died swiftly.
She saw that Bills face was
red and agonized and that he
couldn't force himself to look
at her.
Bill" she said huskily, "I
guess we might as we'll say
goodbye now. I've decided I
don't want to stay in New York
any longer. There's a bus leav-
ing early in the morning and I
think I'll take it. I. probably
won't see you again-so thanks
for everything"
End of Romance
"I thought you'd feel like
that" he said. That's why I
hoped you wouldn't find out.
Well, good by, Oracle, it's been
swell knowing you"
And that was another night
when Oracle lost plenty of
sleep.
The next morning she was
on the bus. Her vacation was
over, and she was going home.
Somehow, the scenery that had
seemed so wonderful on the
way over wasn't wonderful at
all.
"Gee," she murmured wist-
fully, "he was a swell fellow.
Too bad he was a racketeer."
Bill was thinking about Oracle
at just about that time, too.
He was sitting in his hotel room
with a drink before him. But
somehow that drink didn't taste
as good as it should have. There
was another man with Bill, and
it was he who broke the silence
"Whatsa matter with you,
anyhow" he asked. Woman
trouble?"
Bill nodded.
"Yeh," he said wistfully. "She
was a swell kid. Too nice for
me, though. I was kinda hop
ing she wouldn't find out about
be, but she did somehow"
He sat for moment staring
down at the glass before him.
Then:
AN awful nice little gal she
was," he repeated. "Only she
was like everybody else. She
didn't think a wrestler could be
on the level"

Suspicious Man

True. everything wasn't ex-
actly perfect. There were many
things that certainly looked
suspicious. Any hour of the day,
Bill was only too happy to be
with her. But she seldom saw
him in the evenings. Once he
went out of town for a day or
two and Oracle never found
out where he had been.
She forced herself at last to
face the facts squarely. Suppose
he was one of those gangsters
she had read about. Every
ideal, everything in her strict
upbringing revolted against the
thought. She had dreamed a

COLD WEATHER IS | O WEST ON
 RECORD HERE
Thermometer Reaches l9 Above This Morning
 No Break Is in Sight

The cold wave extends from Kodiak east. West of Kodiak and the Bering Sea is warmer than usual. The cold is not as excessive in Fairbanks as it is here. Ket- chikan with 24 above reports its lowest temperature in 22 years of records. And Juneau is plenty cold.
 Moreover, there is little chance of the weather breaking before Monday. Weather matters are moving slowly. Twenty-nine was the high yesterday, and the tenn perature fflla57v+ed fflaved gradually down, in one of the steadiest descents on record until it reached 19 at 8 this morning. At II o'clock today the weather had changed only one de- gree. with 20 recorded at the Weather Bureau.
 Records Broken
 All records for cold October wealth CT in Juneau were broken this morning when the thermometer registered 19 degrees above zero.
 Fifty years ago low for October was established with a temperature of 20 above. And that was just the beginning. According to Wealth CT Bureau figures, the winter of 1883 was pretty cold. The tenn perature averaged 229 in Novem- Der. 28.6 in December, 301 in Janu- ary and PAP in February, an aver age during the winter months of 46 degrees lower than the normal average for these months.
 Here's Explanation
 R. c. Mize, Weather Meteorolo- gist, has technical and scientific explanations for the unprecedented cold wave, which he explained in technical and scientific terms that were much too erudite for the re- porter gathering the information, but they have to do with baromet CTS and the fact that the air is three per cent heavier than nor nal and .
 Anyway-it is cold Ask MT. Mize.
