DUNNE
 GOES FISHING.
 NEW FEATURE
But She Had Never Held a Rod in Her Life
 Oh, We'll, Co On

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. IA - Irene Dunne was doing a job she'd never done before. She was going fish ing. Honestly she said, I've. never held rod in all my life, and I've never met fish-unless cookedlp The scenes for Theodore Goes
 Wild9 were being made at Reuss's creek in nearby Sherwood forest. For Irene and Melvyn Douglas, her leading man, it was "inD Reuss's creek. They waded hip-deep in the stream, in traditional trouting style. 1 Their director, Richard Bolesawski, the doughty Pole, waded too, his trousers rolled knee high. Most of the crew, working in bathing trunks, waded or swan before the day was over.
 The sequence called for Miss Dunne, who had never met a fish
 to beat Douglas, a real-life fishing enthusiast, at the sport. In the movies, however, this was no prob- lem. A professional fly-caster was
 there all day, instructing Ireue in i the fine art of looking Cat least) like an expert fisherwoman.
 BroadlUay Easier"
 And the trout? The studio took no chances on the creek. From Holly , wood it sent 58 live ones, each ready if not willing to give it's life for a brief screen career.
 Gladys George, who made the grade in the hinterland before suc- ceeding on Broadway, holds that New York is easier than the inter- ior cities.
 "Broadway's supposed to have the toughest audiences-really they're the easiest she opines. Tt takes from four to 12 weeks to click in stock, say in Des Moines or Oma- ha, but on Broadway you can do it overnight if they like you at all. The Psychoiogy IS different. The attitude is, if you're on Broadway you must be good or you wouldn't be there, while in stock they want to be shown. In New York, audiences are composed largely of people there for a holiday, more than ready to take it for granted you're somebody if you're in Broadway play" Hot Clothes
 And picture audiences, she be- lieves, are like the hinterland's in wanting to be shown-and more than once.

garded by the Democrats at con- vention time as push-oyers for Roosevelt because of independent party influence, the Republicans have organized with every indica- tion that they mean business.
 Ohio, almost conceded to be Re- publican a few weeks ago, now is spoken of by Republican leaders as fighting ground. It is apparent that the Democrats do not mean to let Governor Lapdon's own state of Kansas go by default; they are making real effort to edge it to- ward the Democratic column.
 And throughout the whole Ter ritory, comparatively small major ities arc universal expectation AL most every request for an election prediction, to whichever party man. ager it may be addressed, brings the same response.
 Tt will be closer than usual in this state this year, but"
 That ought to insure some inter esting statistical reading for cleo tion night.

big BROADCAST OF 1887
PLAYING AT COLUMBIA
Stokowski Symphony Orchestra,
"Swing" Music and Comedy
Mark Film.

THERE are any number Of things
about Paramount's Big Broad
cast of 1887" which attracted an
audience during its stay at the Palace
and which will draw brisk trade dur
ing the current repeat engagement
at the Columbia, but the best of it
for this customers money is the atten-
ton given Leopold Stokowski's hands.
The Paramount people have seen to it
that every one who has thrilled to Mr..
StokowSki'S eloquent and masterful di-
rection will have a moment OF higl:
enjoyment as his symphony orchestra
plays Bach fugue in the finest style.
The rest of Big Broadcast" before
and after Mr.. Stokowski's welcome
appearance, Is happy conglomeration
which includes little Of everything.
Counterpointing the Paramount yen-
ture into symphonic music with the
Stokowski Orchestra Is generous por-
ton Of that folk music Of today known
as swing" contributed in the manner
only Benny Goodman and his band
can achieve. It's the sort of stuff
that's apt to make the girl next to
you want to truck" right down the
aisle. And your feet won't want to
stay still.
Comedy also is contributed in abun-
dant quantities. There's Bob Burns,
for instance, always popping on the
scene at just the right moment, to de-
liver himself of one of his classic yarns
like the one about his experimenting
uncle who rolled the boulder down the
There also is this Martha
Rave sensation, who probably could
walk away with film that had twice
as many comedians as Big Broad

any rate. Jack Benny, George Burns,
Oracle Allen and "Slepperman" con-
tribute other nonsense and Ray Mil

nance In just the proper mood. H. M.

LITTLE FILM SHOWS TRIP
OVER "ROOF OF WORLD"
tThe Yellow Cruise" Picture OF
Central Asia Expedition,
Found Exciting.

THE first thing that strikes one in
= The Yellow Cruise" the new film
at the Little Theater, is that those
Frenchmen of the Citroen-Haardt
Central Asia expedition certainly must
have wanted to get to China the worst
way.
This camera record of the journey
BY caterpillar-tread motor cars across
Syria, Persia, Afghanistan, the Hima-
layas and China is, for all that it's
essentially q travelogue Of feature
length, motion picture with goodly
share Of excitement, suspense and in
terest.
It is a monument, too, to the cour-
age and perseverance Of the gentlemen
who made the tortuous journey along
trail considered impossible for
wheeled vehicles, and who reached
their goal in the face of innumerable
obstacles. Lack Of permission to cross
Russia caused the initial plans to be
altered and made necessary the cross
ing of the Himalayas-Pamir, "the
roof of the world" Part of the expedi-
ton got tangled up with a war in
China. The specially built motor
cars had to be dismantled and carried
by hand through some Of the mountain
passes and across some rivers. One
car crashed through the ice and into
q rushing torrent. A host of other
difficulties beset the expedition, but it
went right on to its destination.
The camera story of this journey
provides excitement enough to trans
nit to the audience some of the sus-
pense the members Of the expedition
must have felt before the Himalayan
Mountains are left behind. The pho
Biography is excellent, presenting some
splendid shots of the mountain scenery
encountered along the route originally
followed by Marco Polo in the thir-
teenth century. There are some fine
pictures of the native life along the
way, too, including top-notch Sc
quence devoted to a wild, whirling
ceremonial of the dancers of Mokor.
