STORY BACK
ONCE MORE
Picture at Columbia Has
Claire TrerOr and Jim.
mie Dunn in Lead.

The newspaper office, always pic
tured so romantically by scenarists,
is again the background of the thou
sandth picture having a newspaper
background. We are speaking of that
amusing filming now showing at the
Columbia, Hold That Girl" which
doesn't sound very newspaperish, but
that girl" happens to be a newspaper
woman. And. the holder of that girl,
one Barney Sullivan. obviously de-
tective par excellence on any police
force.
Claire Trevor is that kind of a
news woman every one would like to
meet but never does, smart, daring
and good-looking, who, when she
wants a ride and doesn't have the
cab fare, hops upon the running
board of the first car she sees and
yells follow that cab" and so on,
thus getting to her destination.
Things were looking rather good
to Miss Trevor until she got locked
llAto hAiC aPdi eLiiSiiG "a a anu
had to summon aid by writing Help"
on her underthings and dropping
them out the window. And. who do
you think answered her appeal? Bar
ney Sullivan, of course. Then Miss
Trevor had many troubles. her paper
carrying on war with the police and
she falling in love with the Irishman.
And the smallest of her troubles GER
tainly was not that fan dance" epi-
sode, but she gets away with it.
Even though this film is thin and
obvious. it is nevertheless pleasant
and amusing. Jimmy Dunn, despite
surprising avoirdupois gained during
his absence from the screen, is an
excellent Barney Sullivan, but some
how this Trevor girl tops him through
out the picture, both in scenario and
acting honors. At that, they make a
good team. AS for the hero, accord
ing to the old standards, he happens
to be Tom Mallory, gambler, who
saves Miss Trevor from his own mob
by running his car into their own.
There is also a short comedy on
the bill in which many will no doubt
be very surprised to find Betty Comp
son, who will always be remembered
for her work in The Case of Ser
geant GrlScha." J. N. H.

CAMP FOR TRANSMITS
IN ALASKA is PROPOSED
Constituents of Representative
Norton Would Call Them "New
Deal Crusaders.''

Alaska would be a perfect place to
send Americas nomadic unemployed
for rehabilitation, according to three
of Representative Mary T.. Norton's
constituents in New Jersey, who
wrote her in detail yesterday of an
original plan to solve the Nations
transient problem.
The three Jerseyites, Robert o.
Hara, John Webster and James Car
lon, proposed the establishment of
colony somewhere below the Arctic
Circle where the hoboes would be
housed, fed and clothed and given
an opportunity to come back. Up
there, too. the trio said, these wan
dering knights of the road would
have a chance to earn livelihood
without competing with American
labor, as Alaska has vast undeveloped
resources and small population.
The trio also selected name for
these transients. They would call
them New Deal Crusaders"

Fortunately, about half way through
the film, the producers were wise
enough to insert a reference to THE
Admirable Creighton" so you know that
the Paramount boys are not taking
the matter seriously. Messrs. Barrie
and Paramount are SO brotherly in

the latter knows it, audiences might
get mad. AS it is. Miss Allen and
Mr.. Burns add Zest to the Barrie
