Columbia Has
Colonel

Down in the old South, Shirley
Temple, Hollywood's baby Bern
hardt, finds her happiest role in
THE Little Colonel" The picture
began a return engagement at
Loew's Columbia Theater yester-
day.
In this picture little Shirley has
Lionel Barrymore as her grouchy
old grandfather and their scenes
together are a real delight.
Another rabble raising moment
comes when Bill Robinson, the
sepia tap dance king, shows the
child star how to tap your way
upstairs to bed. Shirley follows
his dancing routine to the last
beat.
The story is about a venerable
Southern colonel who froWns on
his daughters marriage to a Yam
kee. Banished from home she
comes back later with her young
ster, and it's the child who re-
unites the family. Evelyn Venable
and Jon Lodge play the young
married couple acceptable. But
is Shirley's picture from first to
last.

"CeiIing Zero"
Here Monday

The most important premier Of
the Spring theatrical season will
take place Monday night at the
National Theater, when Brock
Pemberton will present his latest
production, Ceiling Zero" by
Frank Wead.
Mr.. Wead, formerly a comman-
der in the United States Navy
Aviation Corps, has written a
stirring drama of the lives and
loves Of the pioneers Of the sky
ways and their bewilderment in a
world which recognizes flying as
a. science rather than individual
feats of bravery and resource
fulness.
Staged by Antoinette Perry and
Mr.. Pemberton, whose most re-
cent Washington premier was
with strictly Dishonorable," "
Ceiling Zero" has an exception
ally large cast of distinguished
players.
Miss Margaret Perry has the
leading feminine role and OSgood
Perkins, recently featured with
the Lunts in Point Valaine,' -
portrays the wartime aviator who
could adapt himself to changing
conditions, but who can imagine
no future which does not include
his two buddies of more reckless
days, neither of whom has been
able to orient himself to the de.
mands of modren industry. The
other two Of these three muSket
eers Of the sky are played by
John B. Litel and G. Albert
Smith. Media Harrigan, Hope
Lawler, John Drew Colt, Walter
N. Greaza and G. Albert Smith
are others in a large cast.
Ceiling Zero" will remain at the

it will have its New York open.

Prize Movie
At Met

All dressed up to celebrate it's
year-old birthday, 1T Happened
One Night" returns to the 1885
parade for a weeks showing at
the Metropolitan. The second view
ing Of this comedy classic shows
how it deservedly carried off the
prize as the best picture Of last
year.
In its down-to-earth human
quality, this story moves along at
fast, snappy pace, never letting
up until the spectacular finale.
A year has not dated the style,
acting, story or able directing.
The story of a poor little rich
girl and her happy-go-lucky re.
porter pickup is not a new one.
Both Clark Gable and Claudette
Colbert imbue their roles with so
delightful and mad and whimsical
a sense of comedy that one finds
oneself vicariously living their
roles for them: singing about
that now well.known Man On
the Flying Trapeze" and hitch
hiking along the way.
That eventual happiness is ahead
and that those walls of Jericho
will fall is all a foregone conclu-
sion. However, it is not until the
spoiled heroine takes a well-de-
served lesson in humility from her
hero that all is smoothed out.
An excellent supporting cast Is
headed by Walter Connolly (grand
old trouper) and Roscoe Karns,
who turn out their respective parts
with credited finesse and true in
ner knowledge of character define
alton. To Frank Capra, as direc'
tor, all praise is due likewise, in
asmuch as he inaugurated this
trend for funnier, cleaner and
more human pictures.
The remaining bill includes a
Paramount news reel, a comedy
skit. Eggs Mark the Spot" and
an historical film showing high
lights of the Civil War. D. M.

Will Rogers
Life Begins
Held Over

Will Rogers and Life Begins
at 40" are with us for a second
week at Loew's Palace, thereby
helping to substantiate Wills
right to be hailed as the present
champion box office star of pic
lures" He seems to have what
it takes to pack 'em in, for from
the large crowd present at the
Palace last night you'd have
thought it was the opening night
Of the picture, instead of the be-
ginning of it's second week.
In his new picture we find the
comedian in his usual country
role (this time he's newspaper
editor), surrounded by his life
long lady friend (surprise: she's
not Louise Dresser this time|
plus the poor country youth and
the demure young girl who have
their romance promoted by VIII.
The famous star gives vent to a
number Of homely and witty phi
losophies; and does Will really do
things in this production! He
fights a real duel. cooks flap
jacks, sings, dances and "hog-
calls" This last-named episode
is genuine laugh-getter.
Why all the complaints about
Wills pictures being always the
same?" The great paying masses
like Philosopher Rogers and his
pictures "as is" Will Rogers
wouldn't be w. R. unless he were
natural and kindly, and he in
sists upon having q wholesome
and home-Spun background. How
ever, upon second thought, maybe
just once, we'd like to see how
VIII would act living in a big
city Instead Of a village.
Richard Cromwell, Rochelle Hud"

Barber, Sterling Holloway,
Thomas Beck "a newcomer who

particularly Jane Darwell are all

what your age (secret or generally

A good deal of the glamor and
gayety and gala spirit of this rich

Women pail on him after a weeks
acquaintance. Love 'em and leave
'em is his technique. "Steal the
fragrance and throw the flower
away"
Wealthy, witty and handsome,
he is the most eligible bachelor of
the millionaire colony. When the
pursuit of the fair sex grows too
annoying he boards his yacht and
disappears for few months while
beautiful women eat their hearts
out for him.
The playboy practices this sys-
tenn once too often and then falls
a victim to it. Beautiful Lillian
Harvey is the cause of his down.

his usual "line"-soft music, hon.

first Scandals. His new production, while gay
and tuneful, skilfully avoided the low humor
which characterized his 1884 edition.
Producer-director White makes the mistake
of overestimating the value of musical num-
bers and minimizing the value of story. So
that while the current Scandals is good light
entertainment, his authors have provided such
fluffy tale that Mr.. White drops it any
time he likes, to stick in his song and dance
moments. The result is that the story is
never permitted to get real grip on the
audience and Scandals adds up as $3.50
