1t shows that there are quite
few people who are just now
becoming West conscious. Or
possibly the good business can
be attributed to the fact that a
good many are repeating for
Paramount's blonde queen.
Miss West has just disclosed
that she will never become a
patron of the trousers craze.
Says Mae on this subject:
what burns me up is seeing
them dumb danes on the West
Coast wearing pants. They
don't have any shame. You'll
never catch me in pants. I
take that fashion as per
sonal insult. Not only would
1 look like fool in pants with
my figure and all, but 1t
wouldn't help my career"
On the general subject OF her
appeal blonde Mae is even
franker. Says she:
II look pretty buxOm and
blonde don't I. Well, I'll admit
that I'm the kind gentlemen
prefer and the blonde is natural.
But the buxOmness, 1 deny. That
is, I'm no fraiI flower, but a lot

D. G. Liked Gordon

In the good old days, or to be
more exact when the Columbia

company, Richard Gordon was
one of it's dependable actors. Yes,
the same Richard Gordon who
comes to the Fox Theater Friday
as the star of the dramatic play.

technique, sure enough, and I
thought it a marvellous effect at
the time. But the play was with
drawn because Miss Wellman re-
fused to accept the producers

with his picked collaboration or
else. Miss Wellman chose "Or
Else" and so the play closed.
Richard Gordon was the leading
man and subsequently married

Allen Jenkins Has
Boat Race Mania

Allen jenkins was trying to get
boating enthusiasts interested in
getting up an outboard motor
boat race during the making of
James Cagney's latest Warner
Bros picture, "The Mayor Of
He'll" a story of reform school
abuses, which is now on the
Earle screen.
The plans for the race and his
part in the picture both had to
be put off when he had to go to
the hospital for a few days to be
treated for an attack of neuritis.
He used his leisure there to make
more plans and study his lines for
his part. He finished the picture
all right-but the race has not
yet come off. His interest in
boating dates from the time dur
ing the war when he used to work
at shipbuilding and study at ma
rine engineering at night.

Film Musical Is
Full Of Gay
Moments

Still a dazzling and entertain
ing musical picture, the screen
version of "Whoopee," ziegfeld's
hit show, has been revived and
is now on view at the Columbia.
Eddie Cantor is the star of the
film, and his humor is still as
welcome as ever. The dance
routines, lovely ladies and gor-
geous backgrounds, remain to
prove the genius of the Great
Glorifier."
Presenting the adventures of
a young man who believes him
self to be an early undertaker's
prospect, the story is of the typ
ical musical comedy variety, with
lots of laughs and a trivial love
story to introduce the songs.
Comedian Cantor has never had
finer opportunity to be funny,
and he makes the most Of it. His
jokes, gags and songs remain
laugh provoking and fresh, at
testing to Eddie's ability.
The rest of the cast are all good
entertainers. Ethel Shutta helps
out with the comedy, and dances
fast and furiously. Incidentally,
the ten-gallon hat number, with
it's intricate routine, designed by
Busby Berkeley, and executed by
the girls Chose lovely ladies,
againD can hold it's own with the
newer shows. In fact, the entire
movie can. Paul Gregory sings
several lifting songs to pretty
Eleanor Hunt, and John Ruther-
ford menaces in villainous style.
