Comedy Romance
 is Palace Attraction

A rousing hilarious comedy TO- nance with the prince of romance fin. the leading role, and an outdoor story, by that peer of all writers of this type of fiction, is what is be- ing offered Waterbury ut the popu- lar Palace theatcr for tho rest of the week. ending Saturday night.
 John Gilbert with Robert Arm strong and Mae Clarke in "Fast Workers" is the romantic comedy and George O'Brien in Robbers Roost" written by Zane Grey is the strong feature.
 Starting Sunday for four glori- ous days the Palace will present the greatest of talking pictures, ono that Is now current on Broad way at the price of $2 per ticket but which will be shown in Water bury, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at the regular pop ular prices of the Palace theater, and for the first time in the world at these low prices.
 "Cavaicade" with e cast of over $500 players and in addition to this there are 40 favorites in featured roles, is the attraction and one that will dwarf all other offerings in the past will be the feature mark that great picture must shoot at to achieve recognition.
 Nowadays when might pictures are mentioned, the name of one always comes to the front and that was the immortal" Birth of a Na- tion", well to gather an idea of the magnitude of "Cavalcade" all the writers and critics. that is the leading ones have concurred that this picture surpasges in every man. ner the former great one.
 "Cavalcade" has stirred up more comment and enthusiasm than any other picture ever made in the his- tory of pictures. either silent or talking, wherever it has shown. ... audiences have acclaimed 1t. Critics habe been unanimous in their praises and rave over 1t.
 A word to tho wise should be sufficient. even though the Palace is the largest theater in New Eng land, from the inquiries and phone calls that arc pouring ih t looks as though thene wouldn't be reUm enough to hold half of those that have been unanimous in their seeing this colossus of pictures.

My courage failed me-" he said, "when I was shown the testimony of Macdonald and others of my colleagues"
 Thornton repudiated his pre-ex- animation testimony, when he had corroborated the confession of Sokolov. Prosecutor Vishinsky was not satisfied with the mere admis- sion, but prodded him for further details.
 T was questioned early in the morning under the influence of dreadful charges" Thornton said, T lost my courage" Supreme Court Judge V. Ulrich, president of the tribunal, inter- vened. Biting irony was in his voice as he asked:
 When did you lose your cour- age"
 A. March 12. (The day he was arrested.) c. And when did you regain your courage? A. April 1, at D. m. (The day and hour of his release on baiI.)
 Mcdonald and Thornton were questioned at length. Both in- sisted that while in prison they had been told Of damaging admis- sions by colleagues, and that these had influenced them into making exaggerated admissions of their | own.
 Macdonald, however, was led in- to admitting he had obtained in- formation from Guscv concerning the manufacture of munitions. 4 IxsI t.st, ..Ix Mere curiosity Macdonald re- piled.
 Macdonald and Thornton were questioned simultaneously and gave contradictory testimony concerning tho espionage charges. MacDon- aid confirmed previous statements that he had transmitted military information bearing on aviation and munition factories to Thornton.
 That's an absolute lle," Thorn ton declared.
 Thornton was completely self possessed, but MacDonald's nervous replies to the questioners were scarcely audible. Thornton re- peatedIy asserted that the only informa ton he gathered was legi- timate information of a business nature for his firm.
 Macdonald then said he had re- ceived other Information from sokolov, but of general char acter." But he did not pay for 1t, he insisted.
 "It Is true I gave money to Gusev, perhaps as much as 2,OOO or 2,50O rubles," he said, but It was q just remuneration for heavy overtime work"
 Some of the money came from his own pocket he said. Some came from Thornton.
 "Didn't you yesterday confirm Guscv's testimony" demanded Vishinsky.
 T only confirmed his evidence where 1t agreed with my confes- sion," Macdonald said.
 Finishcd with Macdonald Tor the moment, Vishinsky turned again to Sokolov, q man about 34 years old with clean shaven but weak face. He grinned as he an swered the questions. He was first mobilized into the white army, he said nervously, but later served Tn the red army.

Al JoIson Heads
 State Entertainment

Al Jolson in "Hailelujah I'm A
 Bum," tho first picture over donc in rythmic dialogue, heads the program at Warmers state today and tomorrow. Jolson, who made
 the first talking picture. creates something of 4 new sensation in this his first film in many years IIe Is supported by an excellent
 cast including Harry Langdon, | Madge Evans and Frank Morgan.
 Tho companion feature, and an other grand screen entertainment is "StaAe Trooper" with Evelyn
 Knapp and Regis Toomey.
 Saturday brings the outstanding cinema event of the year, To-day We Live" co-starring Joan Craw-
 ford and Gary Cooper.
 The activities of the British navy, particularly their dangerous
 "skecter destroyers," play 6 prom inent part in the action of
 "Today We Live" with further exciting episodes centercd on the aerial spectacles of bombing sauadrons. According to the Faulk- ner story, however, although the war serves as q background for the plot, the conflict is never allowed to submerge the focal point of drama in tho strong personalities who are entangled in a struggle for life and love behind tho lines.
 Comedy intcrludes are brought into the story through tho antics of Roscoe Karns as the Fife of the billet" whose humorous phil- osophics serve to relieve tho ten- sion of the aviators who expect each day to be their last. The pie ture is likewise given lighter touches in the personality of Louise Closer Hale in the role of q faith full family servant who stops shcd- ding tears over war troubles long enough to register her well-known. inimitable dry wit. 'Rollo Lloyd and Iilda Vaughn compete the supporting cast.
 ''Today We Live" is said to reach It's most stirring points In the first meeting of Miss Crawford and Cooper at the very moment when she learns of her fathers death in France; the last five hours before Robert Young and Fran chot Tone leave Miss Crawford to enlist in the British navy; Coopers bravery when he is taken aboard q secret speedboat which discharges fl single torpedo at great risk 10 the pilots: and the final gesture Of Young and Tone, who do a 1op for which Cooper was assigned ana forfeit their lives in order to save his fife for the girl whom they all love

 The washing of the papal altar, q traditional, age old ceremony, filled with detail and symbolic meaning. lasted nearly three hours. Eugenio, Cardinal Pacelli, arch priest of the mother church Of Christiandom, sat on c throne like chair as q procession of chapter canons approached the altar. It was stripped of candlesticks, vases, lecterns, sall adornments. Four canons wearing black stoles, pre- ceded by one clad in purple, mounted the altar stairs, and Tn turn poured out consecrated wine and oil from silver cruses. A dea- con handed the chief canon an aspergilia (hoiy water sprayerl and by turns the canons sprayed the altar. When they finished. his emminence descended from his throne, sprayed the altar and walked around 1t while . Gre- gorian chant arose from the choir.
 The participants then moved orr in procession to the altar or the relies. Here were solemnly ex- posed for veneration of the faith ful. the sacred lance. with which, tradition says, 6 Roman soldier pierced the side of the crucifled Christ, the large fragment Of the true cross, and the veil of St Veronica upon which appears an impression of the face ef Christ.
