Morocco For
The RioIto

Together with the first revival
in washington Of Morocco" the
Rialto Theater's bill for the week
beginning today will include the
much-repeated and ever-popular
color cartoons, THE Three Little
Pigs" and THE Big Bad Wolf"
A current newsreel and Pearl
Hauer's organ interludes will COM
plete the program.
Gary Cooper's recent success in
such varied roles as he played in
Lives of Bengal Lancer" "Mr.
Deeds Goes to Town." and THE
General Died at Dawn" is prob
ably largely responsible for the
many requests received by the
management of the Rialto The
alter for the revival of the picture
that first presented him as an
eminently satisfying romantic
star.
Morocco" is remembered also
as Marlene Dietrich's first Amer
lean picture. In the role of the
mysterious cafe singer, a role
ideally suited to her rather enig-
matte quality, she achieved a
strong personal triumph, which
has not been topped by any of her
later pictures. THE Garden of
Allah" just recently completed
and soon to be released, is said
to provide her role similar to
that of Amy Jolly in Morocco. "

 Haines, oldest crew coach at Har- yard in point of service, had handled the freshman eight since 1921. Since then his yearling crew has defeated Yale only twice.
