news stories, those getting seed and

While, from purely business con-

 Jimmie, as truculent as ever, smashes a car belonging to pretty Patricia Ellis, the 17 year old Warner Bros featured player who has the feminine lead in the pie ture, and for the first time in his woman slugging career, finds the roles reversed. Patricia lands a sock on his jaw that echoes in his heart, with the result that he cleans up a local potentate who is forcing his attentions on her. James lands in jail, talks himself out of it by fomenting a milk war and lands in jail again when he tries to run the blockade estab- lished by farmers whom Jimmie had convinced, by his oratory. that they were being oppressed by the milk trust. #

 Cabbage Patch"

One of Americas dmmortal classics, Mrs Wiggs Of The Cab bage Patch" with Pauline Lord, W. c. Fields and Zasu Pitts in the leading roles, heads the double feature bill at Warmers Strand to- day and tomorrow.
 All of the unforgettable epi- sodes from the story are here; the annexation of "Cuby," the curious Thanksgiving dinner, the hilarious theater party, Miss Hazy's wed- ding and the tragic death of little Jimmy.
 Acting the title role, Pauline Lord justifies her stage reputation by a touching, tender and beauti- fully timed impersonation of quaint, motherly Mrs Wiggs whose aphorisms and homespun wisdom take on new significance when she utters them. 4
 W. c. Fields is excellent in a featured role, bringing to the pie ture the same uproarious comedy that he exhibited in his recent starring vehicles. The scenes be- tween Fields and Miss Pitts, who is cast as Miss Hazy," are price, less

TRIAL OF WILDE
 NOW DRAMATlzED
Maurice ROstand to PrO- duce Rendition in Thea-
 ter in Near Future
By MARY KNIGHT United Press Stan COFPespOndenl)

|
 Paris--(UP)-The body of Os- tomb in. the Pere Lachaise ceme- on through the pen of Maurice Rostand, whose ''Trial of Oscar Widle" is slated as one of the early theatrical renditions for 1885.
 The aim of Rostand's play is to show how Wilde was purified l through the sufferings he endured in Reading gaol. Among the char acters selected by the Frenchman for his drama are Lord Alfred Douglas, living, and Frank Harris, deceased.
 Rostand is a son of Edmond Rostand, author of "Cyrona de Bergerac," "Chanticleer" "L'Aiglon". The first act of "The Trial of Oscar Wilde" shows a pri- vate supper room at the Savoy hotel after a performance of "A Woman of No Importance" Queensberry comes in and leaves q note with the butler to the effect that he wishes to see MT Wilde. Both Wilde and Frank Harris dp- pear shortly after and the latter begs Oscar not to continue his in- tention of bringing a libel action against Queensberry.
 Trial Scene on Stage
 Act two opens with the trial. and the French writer has taken his questions and answers directly from the records of the historic trial. The first scene shows Ed ward Carson (now Lord Carson) cross examining Wilde for the de- fense. The second scene shows the dramatic moment when Carson says he will call iwntesses to prove Queensbury' allegations. Sid Ed- ward Clarke, for Wilde, is obvi- ously staggered by this, because he had only undertaken the brief after asking Wilde if he had told him the truth. The third scene shows the judgment.
 Act three shows Wilde writing "De Profudis" in prison. He has found himself through his suffer- fngs. The entire play is written in the couplet form of Pope and Ad- dison verse. Rostand believes that Wilde achieved greatness in the agony of .~s disgrace, trial and imprisonment. but is undecided as to whether he achieved 1t through an irresistible fate, or, having counted the cost, through a con- scious efforto will-power.
 Sufferings Pictured
 "That is the fundamental prob~ lem which I have sought to dram- atize," says Rostand. "Wilde brought his downfall on himself by insisting on bringing his libel action against the Marquess of Queenberry. Why? If he had not brought it, the criminal charges which formed the subject of his second trial would never have been brought against him.
 "Was he pushed towards suffer- ing by an inner consciousness of the truth that he would achieve himself through agony? Or was it some sort of snobbish clinging to conventional reputation which he had always professed to de- spise?"
 It is the audience of '"The Trial os Oscar Wilde" which will have to decide these questions.
