Comedy at Apollo

She Learned About Sailors" new
comedy-romance appearing cur
rently upon the screen of the Apollo
theater, presents Lew Ayres having
the enviable task of making love to
Alice Fay, blond charmer who made
such a decided hit in the film YER
sion of George Whites Scandals"
Lew is the champion heart
breaker of the United States navy
IN the new photoplay and Miss Faye
.characterizes the role of night club
entertainer. This gives Alice a
splendid opportunity to sing Here's
the Key TO Ny Heart IN a manner
that is reminiscent of her many
renditions over the air as a men,
Der of the Rudy Vallee musical or
ganiza ton.
Aiding and abetting the two fea-
tured players with the comedy are
the knockout slapStick artists,
Mitchell and Durant, who are Lewis
shlpmates in the picture, and Harry
Green a South American impresario.
The story takes them from an
Asiatic port TO a cafe in San Pedro,
Cal.
Ayres is persuaded by his two
shlpmates, Mitchell and Durant, to
accompany them ashore at an Ash
attic seaport. At a cafe the heart
breaking sailor meets Miss Faye,
and before the feet leaves port they
fall IN love
When Mitchell and Durant are
convinced that the girl is sincere in
her love for Ayres, they do every
thing in their power to convince
Ayres that he is wrong when he
decides he can not marry her be-
cause of his financial condition.
Mitchell and Durant set the stage
for an accidental meeting of the
lovers IN Los Angeles, and when
something goes wrong, they force
both lovers into trumped up mar
riage. There then follows series
of hilarious events that brings the
film to a lively conclusion.
John Stone, producer, kept his eye
pointed to a summer entertainment
while filming She Learned About
Sailors" and succeeded in having a
breezy and light finished product.
The screen play was written by
William Conselman and Henry
johnson. Short subjects round out
the program.

Baer|s Fistic
Title Battle
Film TO Stay
Affairs of a Gentleman
Also Held Over by
Lyric Theater.

If the drawing power of the Baer-
Camera worlds heavyweight cham
pionship fight films may be accepted
as a criterion, a new star has
assembled the motion picture firma-
ment, and his name is Max Baer.
The fight pictures, combined with
the romantic mystery drama AT
fairs of a Gentleman have proven
such a box office magnet that the
program, in its entirety, is being
held over a second week at the Lyric
theater.
Though there isn't a dull mo-
ment, even for those IMMERSED in
the sport of boxing, in the fight
pictures. the high lights undoubted-
ly are the reproduction, in slow mo-
ton, of the spectacular and sensa-
tional first, second and tenth rounds
in which Baer knocked Camera
down eleven times, and the dra-
matte eleventh and last round in
which the battle was stopped to
save Camera further punishment.
The fact that tie pictures are re-
corded in sound, bringing to the ear
all the uproar that always accom-
panies championship battle,
greatly enhances their entertain
ment value, serving, to all intent
and purposes to provide theater pa
irons with ringside seat at the
fight.
Paul Lukas and Leila Hyams are
starred in affairs of Gentleman"
They are supported by large cast
which includes Phillip Reed, Onslow
Stevens, Richard earle, Murray
Kinnell, Sarah Haden and six of
Hollywood'S most beautiful young
leading women.
The story has to do with the "af-
fairs" of a famous author who
makes each of his short lived ro-
mances the basis of new novel,
thereby mourning many enemies.
When he is found dead, under
mysterious circumstances, in his
apartment, the finger of suspicion
points to many characters Eli cf
whom contribute battling angles to
the problem.

OF GRAFT IN STATE
Suggests He Keep Word BY

ocratic candidate for governor, sug-
gested that Charles Bangert, candi-
date for the supreme court on the

81 note from the Mayville Tribune,
said Noodle, that In LANCER meet
ing at Mayville recently, Bangert Of
fered 5000 to any person who could
prove there was graft in the LANCER
administration.

ton to q letter written from New Eng

INCREASE IN FLAX
ACRES SUGGESTED
BY BOARD TO AAA
Plan Not in Conflict With Pro.
duction Control Program,
Maddox Declares
BONUS FOR RAISING MORE
Recommend Levy Of Process
Tax, Compensation on I'M
ports, Benefit Payments

Washington, Oct. 2.-(R)-A new
departure in production on control
for agriculture-increasing rather
than curtailing acreage-is being
considered by the farm administra-
ton for growers Of flax.
Recommended by the national
wheat advisory committee, q pro-
posal would levy q processing tax or
home-produced flax, q compensatory
tax on imports, benefit payments ia
farmers and system Of acreage allot.
nlents by states.
In these respects It would be
modelled after control programs foa
wheat, corn and other basic com.
modities, but the government would
pay farmers to raise more flax in
stead Of placing q cash premium upon
. smaller crop.
Although the program has not vel
received the approval Of Secretary
Wallace and still Is in alternative
form, members Of the wheat advisory
committee predicted Tuesday it would
b.. adopted and made effective for, thu
1885 crop.
Walter Maddox, former governoa
OF North Dakota and q member Of
the wheat committee, said the pro.
cessing tax probably would be 80 q
&C cents . bushel.
In adopting q program designed *
spur production, Maddox said tn,
government would not Be throwing It,
farm program into reverse because
the theory Of the agricultural id.
justment act was to regulate produc'
ton, which, he said, did not neces.
sarily imply reduction.
The committees recommendation
Maddox said. called for stimulating
production to within 20 per cent o.
domestic consumption. The allot-
ment ratio, he said, would seek t.
maintain the same proportion Of pro-
duction In the states as now prevails
For example, North Dakota would b
allotted sufficient acreage to continue
It. Is the leading producer, Montana
the second largest and Minnesota
third. Production records show thesl
to be the three ranking production
states.
