Dramatic Pupils

so to Take Part in Show at
0deon Hall.

More than so dramatic art pupils
of Miss Alberta Speicher. Arthur
Jordan Conservatory faculty men,
Der, are to take part in two short
plays at the Odeon Hall, 106 E.
North-st, tonight at 8:15.
In the first, "a Christmas From
Mother Goose Land" Ellen Geno
Blampied and Dayle SeXson, are to
take the leading roles. They play
the parts of two little children, dis
gusted that their parents have CIV
en- them rag doll and a Mother
Goose book instead of more grown
up" things. They fall asleep, dream
that characters from Mother Goose
Land come, convince them it's not
bad place after all.
In the second, "Christopher's
Orphans" James Stanley is to play
Chris, an orphan who has the re-
sponsibility of his eight brothers
and sisters in the orphan asylum.

perfect crime. really does a bad job
of it, gets out luckily. The next
morning when police come for him
he nearly dies of fear until at the
station he is told he has been
brought in for failure to pay his
rent. The inspector recognizes him
as the author OF the brilliant
articles on crime, asks his advice on
the recent murder Of the pawn
broker.
RaSkolnikov'S confidence in his
ability to outWit the inspector grows
and the inspector gradually finds
out that it was this student of
crime who murdered the pawn
broker. Without proof, the police
inspector let's the mans conscience
do the work of incrimination.
Crime and Punishment" taken
from the story by Fyodor DostieY-
sky, is the best of the stream OF
consciousness" films TO come from
Hollywood. 1t takes the audience
right into the brain of RaSkolnikov,
shows you what is going on there;
lets you watch him suffer, fear,
dread and finally, in his confession,
to triumph over himself.
1t is a great picture in a small
way. Mr.. LORE is superb. displays
great talent in the timing and
balance of a character as warped
as the Russian student. Edward
Arnold adds heavily to the success
of the picture with his portrayal of
the Inspector. Marian Marsh is
adequate as the girl, Sonya. Charles
Waldron, who played the Friar
Laurence in Katharine Cornelfs
Romeo and Juliet" here, has a part
in the picture.

War Film Is
Small Star S
Best Movie
Child Shows Real Ability
in Her Performance
and Dancing.
BY JOHN w. THOMPSON

Eleanor Powell, Fred Astaire,
Ginger Rogers, stand back! The lit
tie child who is to lead you is TO
beat you at your own game. If you
don't believe that Shirley Temple
is the outstanding dance star Of the
season, take squirt at THE
Littlest Rebel" which opens today
at the Apollo.
This Is, undoubtedly Shirley's
best picture. In it she not only adds
real, routine dancing to her &C
complishments, but she is much
more convincing as an actress. You
probably will say that you saw her
dance in Curly Top" That's not
what we mean, we mean real
dances, and more than several of
them, all done with Bill Robinson,
the Negro stopper for a partner.
The Littlest Rebel" is sort of
so Red the Rose" story In fact
the plot follows the Stark Young
novel closely in its action Shirleys
father John Boles) joins the Con-
federate ranks. She and her mother
Karen Morley are left in the big
Southern mansion. Yankees come,
burn the house, force the white
folks to live in the slave quarters.
Bands of soldiers from both sides
sweep by the home.
Shows Displeasure
One day troop of Confederates
rides up, searches the place. Col.
Morrison Jack HolD is captured
by the wiles of the little girl he calls
'littlest rebel" and she shoots her
sling-shot at him when he rides
away
When Shirleys mother becomes
i'll, Robinson risks his life to get
to her husband in the Yankee lines.
Together they get back to the slave
hut in time to see the mother die.
In the midst Of funeral services,
Yankees come, the father is forced
to hide in the attic. Shirley concealS
the fact that her father is home.
But Col Morrison 6nds him. When
he hears the story about Shirley's
mother, he writes a pass for the
father to use when taking Shirley
through the Yankee lines to safety
in Richmond.
Shirley and her dad are caught.
he is sentenced to be shot. So is
Col. Morrison. Shirley and Robin
son put on street dance, get train
fare to Washington where President
Lincoln gives them pardons for
both men,
She'll Capture You
Shirley, dressed in the quaint
Southern costumes, bright eyes
sparkling with mischief, tiny feet
tap-tapping in catchy dances, is a
sight no one can afford to miss. If
everything else fails (Which it WON'T
you'll be captured by her singing
of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS All Day."
There is strong support by Mr..
Holt, Mr.. Boles, Miss Morley and
Bill Robinson. Even Willie West. the
lackadaisical Negro boy, is funnier
than usual
But it is the dimpled little rebel
who will take you into camp with
this the climax of her motion pic
ture career.

tions.
At 1870 a. m. on Sunday,

sitting at table near the stairs,
with glasses before them. He
walked over, he said, and asked

They agreed, and he testified
that, according to his sniff"
they contained alcoholic beverages.

ADOPTS
NEW RELIEF
POLICY
Men Must Take Jobs
Or Families Be Cut
Off Rolls

HYATTsvILLE, Md, Oct. 80.
Families Of men who refuse jobs
will be stricken from relief rolls,
according to rule adopted today
by the Prince Georges County
Welfare Board.
Charges were made last winter
that men were refusing work be-
cause they could get nearly as
much by staying on the direct
relief rolls, so the board adopted
the rule as a corrective measure.
Hereafter, when man is certi-
fled by investigators and a job is
offered him by the welfare board,
he must accept or his family will
be deprived of direct relief, Mrs.
j. Enos Ray, chairman of the
board declared.
Exceptions because of sickness
or other personal reasons may be
made.
The rule will aid materially in
correcting the relief load in the
rural section of Prince Georges,
where farm pay is almost as small
as the relief allowance for a large
family, Mrs. Ray said.
To absorb county unemployed,
the board will urge F. H. Dryden,
State WPA Administrator, to push
a program of farm-to-market road
surfacing and widening, Mrs. Ray
announced.
