thought, have been famed for their
magnificent musical spectacles, and
to insure maintaining this feature,
Busby Berkeley was chosen to direct
the 1885 edition.
Berkeley, it is claimed, has taken
a funny, clever story, gathered to-
gether a cast of film favoriteS, and,
with the assistance of 300 dancing
beauties, has assembled the whole
into tuneful comedy in which his
talent for spectacular screen inno-
vations has been given full sway.
Three Specialties are said to be
outstanding, in one of which go
snow-white pianos are seen to actu-
ally cavort on the stage. The dance
team OF Ramon and Rosita is also
featured.
The story is said to be a catchy
romance with fashionable hotel as
the setting. A wealthy widow, who
is essentially penurious, is the target
of the gold digging propensities of
a trio of schemers enacted by
Menjou, Cawthorn and Mitchell.
The widow, which is said to be
the funniest role portrayed by Alice
Brady for some time, has two chill
dren.
She is trying to marry off her
daughter. Gloria Stuart. to Hugh
Herbert. also a millionaire, but who
is more interested in writing essays
on snuff than love. Her son. Frank
McHugh, four times married and
divorced, falls for the hotel hostess,
and the daughter falls in love with
the room clerk in the person of
Dick Powell.
Glenda Farrell does a little gold

about an intriguing romance in

Jerome Kern wrote the music
for the production, which stars
Irene Dunno, Fred Astaire and
Ginger Rogers. Miss Dunno sings
number of Kern's hit songs, and
Astaire and Miss Rogers dance to
the rhythm of others. Fred and
Ginger also sing, with Astaire
demonstrating still another talent
by playing the piano.
With Randolph Scott playing the
romantic lead opposite Miss Dunno,

Berry is grizzled ole sergeant in
structor at immense Randolph
Field, the great Army aviation
school where 80 per cent of the
picture was filmed, while Robert
Young is his debonair, too fippant,

Young's f1ippancy leads him to
the point where his nerve breaks;
where he commits the unpardon-
able military sin, and is saved only
when his father sacrifices his whole
career for the honor of his son.
These contingencies come about
because of the tangled love interest

general, Lewis Stone, on one side,
with Miss Russell presenting the case

It isn't the first time in literary
history that a mans whole career

one agreed-would come to some bad
end, God have mercy on him! They
had kept at her and tormented her
until finally she had given up and mar
ried Joe Clancy. fine lad, steady and
true, and not given to reckless living.
Strange how things turn out in this
world. They all came to America.
Joe never got along very well and they
were always poor. They drifted out
to California. Torrance O'May stayed
in New York. Now Torrance was a
rich man. a ward politician and con-
tractor, while they were poorer than
ever.
Torrance wrote every now and then
that he had never forgotten the time
when the three of them worked to-
gether in the potato patch or crept
out at night to see if they could sur
prise the wee folk in the glen.
Mamie sighed. Some folks have
luck and some don't.
Torrance went into the market when
everything was going up and got out
before everything went down, but luck
turned her back on Joe. poor man! 1t
seemed as if the wee folk must have
put a curse on him, though only the
saints could tell you why.
And now, after all these years, Ter
rance OMay was coming to see them.
He had written that he would stop on
his way to Tia Juana. That very
night he would be with them for din
ner.
When the word came Joe had shout
ed and danced with delight, but Mamie
was very quiet. She was wondering

ward politician, Torrance OMay, be a
stranger?
She had other worries, too. In her
worn purse we're only 80 cents-all she
had in the world-yet she must do him
honor. True, the garden was in full
glory and she could do wonders with
vegetables, and the raspberry bushes
were bending with luscious red caps,
and no one would miss the cream
once their delicious juice touched the
tongue, but

The dinner was on the table in no

Joe, too, did his part. 1t was din

something Torrance was saying aroused
her.

Mr.. Webster chose for his program
yesterday were not sufficiently varied
to permit a sweeping comment on
his ability, while at the same time
revealing enough of his talent to
bring out the essential and individual
qualities which have attracted wide
attention Mr.. Webster is young
man at the beginning of his career
and one can rejoice that his founda-
ton is so excellently grounded and
his intelligence Of the kind that will
urge him on to greater endeavor
toward perfection.
Apparently, up to the present he
has concentrated on working out
clear, airy technique and a bright,
ringing tone that is of arresting
beauty in certain compositions. In
pianissimo passages his work is as
limpid as the waters of a running
brook and flows with unobstructed
clarity through every nuance. He not
only understands the intimate rela-
ton of note to note and phrase TO
phrase, but the picture is so clear
in his mind that ne weaves the pat
tern of the music with intelligent
skill. That was the impression in
stantly registered with his interpre-
tation of his first number, the "Rondo
Capriccioso" of Mendelssohn, and
found again in the "Rondo' by Weber,
Ravel's "Alborado del Grazioso' and
the encore, an "Etude" of Chopin.
When one considers his interpreta-
ton of the three Chopin numbers,
"Etude No. T." "Berceuse" and "Scher-
20 No. q" the Brahms .'Intermezzo'
and Debussy's ''Poissons dor" one
felt that another side of the pianists
art has not as yet been entirely as
simulated by him. but with his superb
technical facility and thoughtful musl-
cal attitude his development in this
line should be certain and VIII be
interesting to watch. A correspond
ing warmth in forte tones to match
the lovely softness he achieves at
other times, more restrained dynamic
progression and deeper reaction to
the musical content of Brahms and
Chopin are what one can expect from
this young artist already so richly
endowed. His brilliancy and tech
nical finish at once caught the in
terest of the audience and he was
given enthusiastic recognition.
Nine. Norena confined her program
to French, German and Norwegian
songs of great charm and simplicity.
It was pity that she did not include
at least one of the arias from the
operas she sings with such grace. for
only a part of her fine vocal equip
ment was evident yesterday. Her
voice is small but pure in tone, and
she is a sincere if not deeply moving
artist. Some of her mechanical man
nerisms are directly the reverse OF
what is customarily taught singer,
but the result is pleasing and evil
dently sufficient for her requirements.
