 rissey, M. of C.

Michael John Morrissey will act in the capacity of master of cere- monies in the annual St Patrick g Holy Name society minstrel show to be presented at St Joseph's hall on next Saturday evening. All ru- mors to the contrary have been denied by the committee this morning and by MT Morrissey him. self. He had been out of town during the past week but informed tpe committee last night that his visit to New York was for the pur- pose of gaining inside information on the affairs of the theatrical world before making his annual appearance with such popular company. Parishioners of St Pat rick's and their many friends who have already purchased tickets will feel relieved to learn that this DO. sition will be handled by one with such wide experience.
 Assignments that are expected to be outstanding have been settled with the announcement that Jim- my Barnes, popular Brooklynite, and Rudy Hermstadt, a deputy sheriff in the town of Watertown, will act as endmen. These posi- lions many believe, could not be in any better hands and there are many who will recall the activities of the pair year ago, when they were the hit of the show. Efforts are being made to have Angelo PastOre appear in a soloist role. This youngster received attractive press notice for the able manner in which he handled himself in the Sacred Heart show short time ago. It was the initial ap- pearanee of the youth and his ap- pearance would be great asset to St Patrick's. The young man is

WILL ROGERS AT
 STRAND SUNDAY
"The County Chairman Heads Double Feature;
 Fine Shows Coming

Will Rogers has played an arnaZ. ing variety of roles. In the It talking pictures he has made "a date, the star has been an oil mil. lionaire, 8 mid western farmer, q hobo, a meat packer, a druggist, q Kentucky judge and many other things.
 But until now Will has never enacted the role for which he is perhaps best fitted of all--a poliLi- clan. In real life he is ono of the best-informed and keenest students of politics in the entire country, but until he made "The County Chairman" which will begin 0 four-day engagement at the War ner Strand theater tomorrow, he has never had ain opportunity to screen.
 "The County Chairman" pro- duced by Fox Film, is a screen adaptation of the famous stage comedy by George Ade, which once served Maclyn Arbuckle as hls best t-known starring vehicle. It tells a mirthful, shrewd and dra- matic story of small town politics in a day when American village life was far more colorful and iso- lated than it Is to-day.
 Will, it is said, is seen in role superbly suited to his talents that of a fire-eating boss wlio owns the town, but who gives mora than he takes throughout his ca reer. He's a small-town War horse, with plenty of big town ideas.
 In his cast, the star has the sup port of many well-known players who have appeared with him in earlier successes. Louise Dresser. who has been seen with Rogers m Ave pictures, has an important role and Evelyn Venable and Kent Taylor, the young lovers of David Harum," once more take care of the romantic assignment. Othe" featured players are BertOn Churchill, Mickey Rooney and Stepin Fetchit.
 The cast likewise includes such tried and trusty actors as Robert McWade, Frank Melton, Charles Middleton, Russell Simpson, Erville Alderson and William V. Mong.
 Performances tonight conclude the engagement of Bing Crosby and Kitty Carlisle in Here Is My Heart," and Red Hot Tires,' with Mary Astor and Lyle Talbot.

CARROLL

Shirley Tem ple-most sensation- al film discovery of the year--Will be seen at the Carroll theater, be- ginning tomorrow, in her latest and, according to all advance re- ports, her best Fox picture, Bright Eyes,"
 Bright Eyes, was conceived as a Shirley Temple vehicle by David Butler, who directed the film. The story was suggested to him, it is said, by a real-iife' incident occur ring Ut a commercial airport near Los Angeles.
 Relating the idea to Sol Nj. Wurtzel, Fox Film producer, he found the latter at once fired with enthusiasm. Together with Edwin Burke, famous screen writer whd adapted Bad Girl" and other hits | Butler was promptly put to work by the delighted producer, setting the idea down on paper. Then its ada aptation was handled by WI. liam Conselman. Apparently it vehicle for the remarkable child player.
 Once more James Dunn is cas, as Shirley's leading man-a fact which is said to have enchanted the young star. Jimmy appeared as her daddy in stand Up and Cheer" and Baby, Take a Bow, and Shirley has eyes for no one else, they say, when he is on tht set.
 The companion feature is "I've Been Around, starring Chester Morris. Here is a picture packed with tense, human drama. A pic ture in which you see Morris |! one of the most unusual roles hs has ever portrayed: that of maI who learns two hours after h. marries the girl of his dreams tha she didn't marry him for love, bu to spite another man.

Rv nAN THOMAS

NEA Service Staff Correspondent. Hollywood. - Anything for q thrill!
 For years that was the motto of Hollywood's death -defying dare devil aviators known as the Black Cats. They would do anything for Q few dollars.
 Hanging from wing tip, chang Ing planes in mid-air, making de- layed parachute jumps and even cracking up planes was all in d days work for them. And they loved the excitement.
 All that has been changed dur ing the last year, however. The Black Cats now are known as the Associated Motion Picture Pilots. Their motto has been changed to "a longer and less exciting life."
 And most of the members have become largely ground flyers" devoting a good portion of their time to giving technical advice.
 Not more than per cent of my time on picture consists Of actual flying" declares Captain E. II. Robinson, president of the film pilots organization, who now $ ucLinb HS beCuMSul uuVioSA VII Wings in the Dark" Most of the time l can he found at a typewrit- ter or q conference table, discuss- ing technicalities of air scenes to be used in picture.
 Studio executives apparently have decided that we are more valuable as technical advisers and pilots of camera planes than we were as stunt flyers. In fact, we now earn as much money just for giving advice as we once did for cracking up ships or performing other dangerous stunts"
 This change in the status of the one-time stunt flyers isn't all due to studio executives, however. As they grow older, acquired families, and attained more wisdom, tho pilots themselves became less will- ing to risk their neeks just to give theater audiences momentary thrill.
 They saw too many of their bud dies getting killed or spending months in hospitals recovering from injuries. Consequently, the prices for stunts went soar ring.
