HOLLYWOOD, March 9.-Felix
Rollo, who came to this country
at the same time Princess Natalie
Paley did and has since been
much publicized by pranksters
as being prince, is actually a
famous European man-about-toWn
who, while here, has squared
about such charmers as the prin-
cess, Marlene Dietrich, Carlo and
now, Peggy Fears. After these
many weeks in Hollywood he has
been given a. screen test by
MGM, which really won't do him
any good because he must leave
almost Immediately to join his
papa in Paris. According to an
agreement with his pater, who is
an Egyptian, Felix must reside
six months in Paris on an income
which has already been halved
because of his refusal to live in
Egypt, and should he choose to
live in the Americas altogether,
his revenues would be cut off
entirely. Hence the dash for papa
and Paree, movies or no movies.
Speaking of Dietrich and
Carlo, Carole Lombard arrived
at the Trocadero the other night
with a new hairdress and makeup
which made her look in odd mo.
ments as she passed from one
colored spotlight to another very
much like both of these ladies.
Now mind you, La Lombard copies

no doubt, dumped a mess of live

romantic qualifications with Clau-

role in Paramount's Gear &c."
which opens Friday at the Earle
Theater. This story Of the IA
nous Michigan State Police fea-
lures MacMurray, Sir Guy Stand
ing, Ann Sheridan, William Fraw-
ley, Dean Jaeger and Marina
Schubert.
"Car SO" is based on true in
cidents in the experience Of this
great criminal-hunting force. Mac
Murray portrays a young rookie
who, in a clash with the States
most dangerous bandits, loses his
prisoners through carelessness and
is broken as a result.
Even after this setback he per.
sists in his loyalty to the force.
Finally, in daring coup, bank
bandits cripple the police radio
station and proceed to escape from
the State. Their plan just fails
of success through the bravery
and quick-thinking of MacMurray,
who wins back his post and his
girl through the arrest.
Capable direction by Charles
Barton is said to make "Car so"
a consistently pleasing, thrill-filled
and highly satisfactory picture.
On the stage, Eddie Peabody,

Comedian AL Jolson thought he
had it all set to have Shirley

When Winnie got through ex.

mixed verdict from the New York
critics but feminine patronage
soon sent it into the smash hit

They are gossiping about the
possible winner of the Pulitzer
prize and the drama editor of the
New York Times says if he were
making a book this is how he
would rate the odds:
The Children's Hour, 9 to 5.
Awake and Sing! 5 to 2.
The Petrified Forest, Z to 2.
Valley Forge, 10 to i.

He drew deep breath.

But Josephielle did not view the matter in
the same light when, some three weeks later,
Henderson accosted her in the market-place
and delivered Alonzos message.

Registration Of
 Labor Closes
 Tomorrow Mite

The registration committee who has charge of the census of labor in Nome for the purpose of determin- ing the situation here pertaining to any influx of surplus of laborers in the spring stated today that it would be desirable to obtain the names of anyone who would care or who was in a position to estab- fish a bunk house or hotel.
 The committee was informed that the Nome Committee of the Feder- al Emergency Relief Administration would be closing the EZRA bunk house located at the East end of town, April 18th. In case private concerns or individuals can supply place for housing accommodations, the committee assures the public that the government will in no wise enter into any competition over the housing problems.
 But in case such is not the case, and no private persons can establish even temporary housing accomoda- tions and none can be arranged through private capital, then efforts might possibly be made to have some government agency again open some kind of housing accommodations In any event, the committee urges that those who are contemplating or who might plan on furnishing liv ing quarters, whether they be in bunk houses, cabins or a hotel, to register at this time.
 Registration Close Sat.
 The time for registration closes tomorrow evening at pm. Todate the registration has been increasing noticeably and it is apparent that many are availing themselves of the opportunity to assist in their own protection, as well as to prevent a condition in Nome which the city cannot afford, if huge surplus of labor comes here with the expecta- ton of many jobs to be had. The to tai registration at five pm. this ev- ening was 2l0.
