Paul NUM- as "Louis Posteur"
Opens at Metropolitan

"The Story of Louis PaSteur'' Is
again being told for the benefit Of
those who missed its initial run
downtown. warner Brothers
Metropolitan Is proud to show this
film which brings to close and
makes so real the man who did
much toward making the world a
safer place in which to live.
Louis PaSteur was q gentle, gen.
erouS man who believed that mi
crobeS were the cause and not the
result Of disease and he spent his
life in making this theory fact in
the world of science which re-
buffed him and his efforts for so
long.
Pasteur was forced to leave Paris
because his experiments had shown
up the c0urt physicians: under the
new regime of the republic he was
permitted to continue his work but
was baked whenever possible by
the Academy Of Medical Science.
TireleSSly he worked and only in
late years did he receive the recog-
milton he so Justly deserved.
Paul NUM- interpretS the role Of
Pasteur with sympathy and under
standing and gives a magnificent
performance; Josephine Hutchin-
son, Donald Wood, Anita Louise,
Dickie Moore, Fritz Leiber, splen-
did as Chabonnet. are the princi-
pals who support the star; Holli-
well Hobbs gives an excellent &C
count Of the role of Lister. famous
English champion Of antiseptics.
The short features include a
Bouncing Ball" musical novelty,
a travel reel in which look in on
Americas principal ports and a
lengthy newsreel in which the hor-
rorS Of the recent floods are clearly
brought to us.
An exceptional program which
surely must be seen. K. Y.

FULL OF LAUGHS
You will find this young huS-
band, one Bill McAllister, bears
some resemblance to George
Kelly's famous stage bluff, Aubrey
Piper OF "The Show Off" Like
Aubrey, this garrulous young mar
r1ed man is full of hot air and
good intentions but without any
strong desire for hard work. He
prefers to dream about his inven-
ton.
About everybody thinks Bill Nc
Allister Is a phoney except his
wife, Hazel. For Hazel, Bill al
ways has a line of sweet talk, a
hug and kiss, even an excuse
when she burns the biscuits. In
the end his invention turns out
Okay and Bill is on the way to
being a big fellow with everybody.
Hazel'S Pa and Ma, very effect
tvely played by Gene and Kathleen
Lockart, help to make this picture
q breezy little pastime. Joseph
Cawthorn also assists by supplying
tangles English laughs when
needed.
Ben Markson adapted the play
to the screen and William McGann
supplied nimble direction. AS said
above, Ross Alexander has a juicy
characterization and Anita Louise
an opportunity to be something
more than decorative. All in all,

Astoire-Rogers
Held Over

Fred AStaire and Ginger Rogers
continue to pack Keith's as they
go into a third week with Follow
the Fleet" An unqualified hit,
probably the best to date, the
happygo-lucky team not only
execute their remarkable dance
numbers with accustomed grace
and skill but sing a half-dozen or
SO of Irving Berlin'S song SenSa-
tions. Added to all this amusing
though light comedy Of the Navy,
the repartee is humorous and the
situations thoroughly enjoyable.
Seldom is musical feature more
acceptable as movie fare.
Randolph Scott as the know-it-
all sailor who is in line for promo
ton is scarcely less competent,
lending much Of the comedy and
a large port Of the love interest
so essential to success, while
Harriet Hilliard is the school
teacher who wins her man, despite
many of his wise cracks on the
school marm. The whole set-up is
excellent.
The twelfth issue of the March
Of Time" is replete with interest
ing features. An impressive and
solemn picture Of prison life at
Devils Island, that French doom
from which few have ever re-
turned or even escaped. is a
most comprehensive commentary.
Maneuvers in Japan remind us
that the world is still not at
peace as does German drilling.
Then back to this continent as
the fishing controversy at Glouces-
ter, Mass, is put upon a firmer
basis with the signing of a pact.
The news reel and an animated
cartoon complete the program,
as good entertainment as has
come this way in a long time.

Kinks Bond at
The Howard

Andy Kirk and his IL Clouds
of Joy, an orchestra from out Of
the West doing an Eastern swing,
headlines a very good stage at
traction which opened for a weeks
stand at the Howard Theater yes
terday.
Kinks boys are tuneful and
that's no joke. Playing in a style
all their own, the WesternerS
soon won the applaudits Of the
audience and were playing re-
quest numbers, encores, until
the curtain was called. Mary Will
liams, at the piano and, too, the
first woman ivory ticker with
an orchestra here for many a
moon, was given a big hand. The
girl aided two special numbers in
grand style. All in all, Kirk has
a band that can rag with the
best.
Supporting acts for the stage
show include the Three RoccoS,
a brother and two sisters, who
have a neat little act. The girls
sing while their brother is a
small size riot at the piano.
Three flats and a sharp, a cello,
Danjo and four boys get off

Wartime Frock Fits
Into Present Period

The gown Gertrude Michael is
wearing in a romantic scene in
Reunion" opposite Herbert Mar
shall, is actually a period gown.
But there is little doubt that with
the present craze for drapery this
gray chiffon creation couldn't
easily pass as contemporary.
The entire front Of the skirt
drapeS up into the high waistline.
The bodice is surplice and the
decolletage extreme. The gown is
embroidered with diamond cut
rhinestones, and a wreath of rhine
stone flowers for the hair COM
pletes the costume.

HOMELY PHILOSOPHY
Mr.. Cobb, the boy from Padu-
cab who has made good in a great
big way, is something new in
screen stars. In some ways this
itself is praiseworthy. What the
present star lacks in experience
and finesee on the screen he
makes up in a certain robust
strength he brings to the part.
The play "Everybody's Old
Man" has appeared on the screen
before under the name of "The
Working Man." George Arliss at
that time had the leading role.
The plot about which every
body's Old Man" revolves is clever.
And the central character, that
Of the hard bitten manufacturer,
is a long time favorite with play
wrights and playgoers. Mr.. Cobb.
as the tough executive with a
sentimental side is cast into a
wholly congenial role for his tai
entS.
The play briefly concerns a
manufacturer who takes over the
enterprises Of dead rival in order
to save the property for his dead
rivals wastrel children. There is
a villain who is trying to bank.
rupt the company for his own
ends. Also there is romantic in.
tereSt.
Into this plot our humorist
friend from Paducah fits very
well. He plays with strength and
character. He also finds oc-
casion from time to time to refer
to his we'll known lack of beauty.
Supporting Mr.. Cobb in the pic.
ture are quite a roster of Holly
wood names, mostly from the
younger set.
ROGERS ON STAGE
Donald Meek and Alan Dinehart
are quite capable in two Of the
main subsidiary roles. Rochelle
Hudson supplies feminine beauty
and heart interest.
Other players are Johnny Downs,
Norman Foster, Warren Hymer,
Charles Coleman, John Mintern
and Walter Walker.
Everybody'S Old Man." we say
in conclusion, is good program en-
tertainment.
On the Fox stage Buddy Rogers
and his California Cavaliers pre-
sent an hours entertainment. Mr..
Rogers has gathered some very
versatile entertainers among which,
one Cookie Bowers, steps out, per-
hapS, as the one that will be best
remembered.
Mr.. Bowers in three appear
ances does that many different
things. He gives limitations, he
presents an impression Of a man
getting up in the morning you'll
love thatD and Of a woman re-
firing at night. His skit Of the
Jewish lady and her daughter in
the swimming pool is quite rich.
Betty Kean, of Broadway fame,
a good looking blonde tap dancer,
tears off a rousing round of
nimbIe foot work. JEANNE Lang,
singing the solo numbers for the
Cavaliers, scored a deserved hit.
Billy Steele, singing Boots and
Saddle" and "Alone" rates high
on the progr m.
The Cavaliers in their orches-
tral numbers cover a wide range
and play with considerable ability.
The Fox Movietone News rounds
out a program of solid enjoyment.

The Chairman: Gentlemen, May [ eluci

course the amendment before the Council
does not solve the question, it only deals
with it temporarily, because in view of the
coming season it is thought best to have the
matter adjusted so that the teachers can
have their salary, but the matter will have
to be gone over again in January, because
as you will notice the amendment proposes
to change the number of teachers but not
the figures, so the budget will be S1,20000

would have to cut that much in salaries in

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 10. UP)-
Dave Levin. Brooklyn's gift to the
meat carving profession, tonight
added the state of California to his
claims for the world heavyweight
wrestling crown, by literally stamp
ing Vincent Lopez of Mexico into
submission.
Levin took the third and final
fall after losing the first and win

Mccullough disqualified Lopez.
He captured the match in brisk
three minutes of jumping and kick
ing in which a crowd of $4,000 citi-

this locality's first authentic world
championship wrestling bout in two
decades, roared approval.

could be considered wrestling was
the first heat. Levin got the second
on a lefthanded decision, winning
the verdict lying on his back on
broken chairs outside the ring,
where Lopez kicked him when he
tried to scramble into the arena.

The Ell Centrans with blood on their
antlers, went hunting for an un-
identified scorekeeper who, they
beloved, robbed them of one run
and gave CaleXico an extra one. At
that, the best FL Centro's antlered
herd could claim was a tie.
Because of the greater bravery,
brayado or diplomacy shown by the
border Elks in claiming a victory,
while the county seat crew had
gumption enough only to claim a
tie, impartial observers ruled that
the refreshments were on the Ell
