IN IT HEART AND SOUL

That's not what we see on ths screen, however. There she not only goes through the motions of being a home wrecker, but actually makes you believe that she loves doing it.
 Why this change should be brought about by the camera is a mystery to all Hollywood. I've ask ed several of her directors and cameramen, but none could ex- plain. Nor can the actress herself.
 You've got me-" she says. "The only answer I can give is that it's easy to appear glamorous when you're doing something bad. For that reason I have been able to make an impression in these other women parts.
 Frankly, I think any attractive girl can be an other. woman so long as her actions and dialog have been planned by a good scenarist.
 "I like such parts, though, as there always is something interest ing about them"
 And with that, Miss Dodd. or Mrs Straus, started wondering what always is something interesting about them."

RV DAN THOMAS

Performances this afternoon and evening conclude the engagement of Roberta" and Society Doctor,' 7 current attractions at Warner Brothers Strand theater. Tomor- row pings Leslie Howad and Merle Oberon in Alexander Korda's pro. duction of "The Scarlet Pimper- nel." Adapted by Robert Sher- wood and Arthur Wimperis from the famous novel of the same title by Baroness Orczy, "The Scar let Pimpernel" follows the reck- less adventures of Sir Percy Blake ney, dashing English gentleman, who masquerades as vain and fatuous flop to conceal his activities as the head of the fearless bani that snatched countless French aristocrats from the jaws of the guillotine.
 Daring not even to confide in his beautiful French wife, Mar guerite, Sir Blakeney permits his activities to cause an ever-widen- ing breach between them, until she innocently betrays him to Chauve- lin, the fiendish Ambassador of the Republican to English. Then, learning that he is the Scarlet Pimpernel, she rushes to her hus- bands aid, too late to warn him.
 How Sir Blakeney cleverly out wits Chauvelin in the very face of firing squad and opens the way to new love and understanding be- tween himself and Marguerite forms thrilling climax.
 The companion feature will be the farce comedy hit "A Night at the Ritz" with William GargaD, Patricia Ellis and Allen Jenkins. A Mickey Mouse cartoon will Ee added Saturday. Starting Sunday the Strands program will be head. lined by "West Point of the Air starring Wallace Beery, also "Traveling Saleslady" with Joan Blondell and Glenda Farrell.
