BROADWAY BILL
CONTINUES ON
/. DIZZY COURSE

PRANK cAPRA's Broadway Bill"
simultaneously the best and worst
of modern flickers anent horse racing,
has been reinstated downtown, appear
ing for the moment at Warner Bros.
Metropolitan Theater. To approx
mately ninety-nine and forty-four one
hundreths Of the people who behold
Warner Baxter and Myrna 10y put
ting romance through dizzy PAGES, the
negative insinuations of yon paradox
will seem unfair. The other what
ever-it-is hundreths will insist that q
drama technically so inaccurate can
not be classic.
You will find it fairly difficult to
decide which is the more exciting,
love or stake races, whilst Broadway
Bill" is on the screen. Mr.. Baxter
and Miss 10y are two handsome argu-
mentS in favor of the former sport,
but the camera concentrates SO deeply
on the home life of nag named Bill
that ones interest Strays into con-
temptation of fetlocks, dispensing with
the usual preoccupation with celluloid
smiles and sighs.
Although 1t registers new high In
effective melodrama Of the turf, Mr..
Capra's galloping saga is riddled with
practical inaccuracies, none Of which
will hurt very much unless you happen
to be a stickler for form in such
matters.
The tale involves Mr.. Baxter in
the paper-box business, a profession
not to his taste, inasmuch as he has
once tasted blood around the race
tracks. When given the choice be-
tween his hoss, his wife and his
business, he chucks over the latter
pair and returns to racing. Miss 10y,
sister of the errant Baxter's anti
equestrian wife, admires his spirit so
much she chases after him, helps
him get big race won and all that.

The Labor Symphony" with its basis
of practical muscular movement in
field, forest, on the sea anu the rhyth-
mic angular revolution of machinery,
was both clever and artistic as visual
lied by this group.
THE high point of the program was
Mr.. Shawn's Interpretation OF
THE Hound of Heaven" inspired by
the mystic poem of Francis Thompson
More q pantomine than a dance, 1t
was potently vivid presentation of a
mystical theme, with the powerful
modification of Mr. Shawn's idealism q
strong thread through the progressive
plan. A poet and thinker, as we'll as
a dancer, Mr. Shawn brings these two
qualities to the fore in his treatment OF
such elusive subjects.
A group of play motives and folk
themes caught the fancy Of the audi
ence with its humor and variety. ex-
cellently presented by the individual
dancers. Nearly every dance had to
be repeated, and Mr.. Shawn's clever
and amusing Spanish dance required
several additional forms before the
audience was satisfied.
Interpretations of the music of Bach.
Beethoven and Brahms completed the
program on more serious note and
epitomized the aims and the possibil-
tiles of this unique group of artists.
The recital yesterday was one of the
most interesting and artistically salts
flying presented this year in this par
ticular branch of art.

Vast amounts of money have been
spent to narrate all this in lavish
terms, but as usual, the technical
crew comes off best, performing its
scenic duties with impressive skill,
whilst the great minds behind the gags
and music were somewhat less agile.
Personally. We could have struggled
along with one less artificial COW and
one more good dialogue sequence, but
then, you never can tell how the pub

Also in the cast are Ann Sothern,
beautiful and Intellectual as the in

Some of the better bits are con-
tributed by colored boy, who is a

WHAT Mr.. Shawn and his young
w men have achieved is a power
of projection that is not finished with
the extent of the movements, but con-
tinueS on to some distant point of
esthetic reverberation. It indicates the
unseen, the mind carried past the
sweep of gesture to find completion
of the idea In space.
The perfect bodily control and the
exact timing Of posture and movement
are a subordinate part of the equip
ment of these men, and takes also a
secondary place in the mind of the
spectator. The predominating impress
sion is rather the concentration of
thought and the intellectual picturiZa-
ton of ideas, with the use of technique
as means to an end which seems to
be the individual attitude of each
dancer.
Without exaggeration, and never
overstepping the artistic boundary in
any movement, they move with swift
blending of action and grace of
posture that conceals the mechanical
working of fundamental technique.
The program followed much the
same lines as the one presented last
year and is particularly well adapted
to the style Mr.. Shawn has evolved.
A group of Primitive Rhythms," with
solo dances by Frank Overlees, Mr.
Shawn and Barton Mumaw, elevated
the gauche expressions of primitive
men to the plane of art. Likewise

Precautions Called for
With Perishable Food

Study OF human reactions to tin
have been exhaustlyely Investigated
by the food research laboratory OF
the bureau OF soils In Washington.
These studies show that no toxic ac-
tIon need be feared from the use OF
tin containers. For that reason II
has been widely stated that food
stufrs need not be removed from the
can after opening because OF any
danger from tin poisoning.
II must be apparent. on the other
hand, that products like milk or
canned fruits, vegetables, and meats
are perishable substances. Once the
can Is open, they are subject to con-
tnmlnation from the bacteria of the
air Just like any fresh product. For
hat reason ii is certainly not desir-
able for perishable foods TO be al
lowed TO stand in open containers
my appreciable length OF time unless
they are kept very cold. Further
more. though cold delays the growth
" these bacteria, II does not entirely
prevent their growth. Hence foods
cannot be kept in refrigerators in

Caterpillars travel very slowly.

pairs OF small. jolnted legs near the
head. and Eve pairs OF leg-llke
structures near the other end OF
the body. Earth-worms and snakes
do not have any legs. This explains
why the caterpillar moves along
