POLI'S

If there is any serious doubt as % woman's ability in competition with man, there is an amusing argument for the fair sex in the new Metro Goldwyn-May film, My Dear Miss Aldrich," which opens tomorrow at the Loew Poli theater.
 This is the story of a school teacher who inherits a newspaper. The managing editor is one of those males who refuses to believe that women are fitted for work beyond the home. He won't even hire a girl reporter. The new owner not only changes his views, but makes him love her.
 Maureen O'Sullivan, that charm ing Irish girl who is about to CO., star with Robert Taylor is Eng land in "A Tank at Oxford" plays the owner, with Walter Pidgeon, the Broadway star, as the managing editor. As 8 result of his superior work in this role, Pidgeon has just been signed on a long-term contract with Metro Goldwyn-Mayer.
 Edna May Oliver is 6 puzzle ad- dict who provides hilarious comedy in the most humorous role of her long career. J. Farrell Macdonald, veteran character star, Is the city editor, with ready wit and keen un- derstanding. Janet Beecher, an- other screen and stage veteran, ap- pears as militant feminist. Others in the cast include Rita Johnson, Roger Converse, Brent Sargent Charlie Waldron, Quinn Williams and Paul Harvey. George Seitz was the director.
 The picture has good newspaper atmosphere and is rich with comedy throughout. The little Irish star and her colleague, Walter Pidgeon, amply merit the honorS which have been accorded them by the studio. Others in the cast were individually expert. My Dear Miss Aldrich" will please a vast majority of the atergoers.
 On the same program will be shown Chan on D4oadway" with Warner Oland as the famous detec. tive, Charlie Chan, as he solves the most baffling mystery of his career.
 Shown for the last time tonight IS '"The Prisoner of Zenda," co-star- ring the ever-charming Ronald Colman, and the beautiful Madel- cine Carroll in the grandest roles

STRAND

Topper" and Between Two Wo- men,, current attractions at War ner Brothers Strand theater, con- cluding their engagement tonight, are well worth finding time to see.
 Rhythm, sweet, trembly and low down; heavenly song hits by Gordon and Revel; scrumptuous girls, . pa- rade of personalities headed by Alice Faye, the Ritz Brothers, Don Ameche; flying fiddles, hot trunn- pets and honey crooners; dancing feet like rain on the roof; and the insanest antics ever from the Ritz maniacs "You Can't Have Everything" comes to the Strand tomorrow for four days.
 The galaxy of talent includes Charles Winninger, Louise Hovick (GypSy Rose Lee) Rubinoff and his violin, Tony Martin, Arthur Treach- CT, Phyllis Brooks, Tip, Tap and Toe Louis Prima and his band and Ty- Ter Brooke. ~
 Rubinoff's facile violin starts the story off on a mad, musical career by serving to introduce Alice Faye, . hopeful young playwright penni- less in New York, to Don Ameche, successful author of bright and fragile musical comedies. Current ly appearing in Ameche's latest show are the Ritz Brothers and Louise Hovick, the latter an excit. ing new personality making her first screen appearance.
 To further his romantic aims, Ameche has Charles Winninger, his producer, buy Miss Faye's tragedy, which the Ritz Brothers proceed te adapt, with considerable blue-pen. cilling. into Q rowdy farce.
 A steady round of singing, dance ing and comedy intersperseS the light action to produce e well- rounded gem oi fun and amuse- ment.

STATE

To judge by the manifest reactions of the audience at the opening per. formance of Bobby Breen's new mu. sical, Make a Wish" at Warner Brothers State theater this after noon, this tuneful picture has ale ready registered Q resounding hit. The picture will play the State until Thursday night.
 In the principal role, Bobby is ale together delightful. His songs, writ ten for the most part by the famous Viennese composer, Oscar Straus. are melodious and beautifully sung and his acting leaves nothing to be desired. One wonders why Basil Rathbone has for 50 long been con- demned to . succession of villainous roles, since he emerges here as one of the most engaging romantic &C., tors of recent years. In the leading feminine role opposite him, definite promise of future screen greatness is seen in the performance of Mar ion Claire, radio star, who makes her film debut in this picture. To mention the good work of every de- serving member of the large cast would be impossible, but Henry Ar meta stands out in his role, as do Ralph Forbes, Leon Errol, Leonid Kinskey, Donald Meek, Herbert Rawlinson and others.
 For real joyous entertainment 1t would be hard to excel Make Q Wish" It is a veritable gem among motion pictures, and well deserves 8 place on your list of screen plays which you really should see.
 The companion feature Is an ad- venture drama of merit, Sophie Lang Goes West" including in its brilliant cast such favorites as Ger trude Michael, Lee Bowman, Sandra Storme and Larry Crabbe.

 Whether or not anything of a sensational nature bobs up remains to be seen.

Studying Records
(By The Associated Press)

(By The Associated Press)
 TACOMA, Jan. 16, -G-Men studied the records of Tacoma abnormals, as the search for the kidnaper and murderer of Char les Mattson, swung back to the scene of the Kidnapping.
 Reliable sources said officials have received records of numer- ous local criminal trials, among them several for sexual perver- sion.
 Police gave substance to the frequently expressed theory that the Kidnapping and staying was the work of a demented person who possibly knew the family personally.

Stage Aids Broadcast.

HE 5000 persons who attend the
broadcast of the Sunday Evening
Hour in Detroit's Masonic Auditorium
each week now see the performances
presented in a unique stage setting.
While the beauty of the softly
lighted, pastel-hued stage cannot be
enjoyed by the millions of persons in
the radio audience, the set does play
a vital part in the listeners appreci-
alton of the program AS result of
long experiment and research by
radio and sound technicians, the new
setting was constructed at angles, per-
mitting sounds to be reflected per-
fectly and greatly enhancing tonal
quality of the broadcast.
In addition to the effect of the new
stage upon sound quality, its appear
ance is entirely different. Planned
by Walter Dorwin league, noted in
dustrial designer, it is conceived with
a mechanical motif and gives the i'm
preston OF the ultra modern. Nine
panels, ranging from 20 to "a feet in
height, replace the old classic drop
formerly used They are placed in
shutter effect, giving the stage an ap-
pearance Of great depth. Each is 10
feet wide and folds in two sections so
that it can be easily slid in and out
of place. The panels are decorated
with abstract designs employing the
music motif. Canary colored lamps
are set vertically behind the panels in
such way that each stands out like
a great pillar.
The new set has folding ceiling,
which is one Of the largest Of its kind.
Hung up by ropes from the top Of the
stage, it folds In the middle when
| hauled up.
