Winning Contract
BY THE FOUR ACES.

BY THE FOUR ACES.
The Squeeze.
CQUEEzE situations develop more
- frequently at no trump than at
suit contracts. The reason for this Is
that there is no danger of the OPP
ponents' ruffing any of your high
cards. Hence it is possible to refuse
to win one or more tricks in order to
develop a squeeze situation. Today's
hand, played by David Burnstine, is
an excellent example.

West opened the jack Of hearts,
and although East overlook with the
queen, MIR, BurnStine ducked In both
hands. The heart return was won
by dummys ace and diamond
.nesse lost to Vests king. At this
point West, deciding to abandon his
own suit as he held no more re-entries,
shifted to tie ten of clubs. Mr.. Burn
stine allowed the ten to hold, and West
continued with the nine. East overlook
his partners nine with the queen
and, when Mr. Burnstine allowed him
to win the trick, the opponents had
won q total of four tricks. But he
had now set the stage for the squeeze.
The third club lead was won by de-
clarer's ace, and he then cashed the
king of hearts East discarding spade.
Mr.. Burnstine then played three
rounds of spades, landing in dummy.
Now East was really squeezed. He
could not throw his high club, SO was
forced to discard down to the queen
and one diamond. Mr.. Burnstine then
finessed East for the queen of dia-
monds, and his ace and deuce won
the last two tricks.
Please note that 1t was necessary
for Mr.. Burnstine to allow the OPP
ponents to win four tricks before the
squeeze could be developed.

There isn't much plot back Of
this Capitol Theater offering, but
then it doesn't need much. Its
humor is on that nonsenSical but
thoroughly delightful order of a
Thorne Smith novel, minus the
bawdy features. This is not to say
there isn't a little paprika in this
film, but there is so very little it
isn't worth mentioning. Besides
that, it manages to be very funny
without it.
Miss Hopkins Film
Miriam Hopkins, believe, has
never appeared to better advan-
tage than she does in her current
role Of Virginia Travis. The choice
Of Miss Hopkins for this part was
q happy one. A thoroughly de-
Iightful comedienne, she is also a
very able actress. In her changing
moods in this story she displays
a great and convincing versatility.
It is her picture.
Joel McCrea rises to the de.
mands Of his exacting role in great
style and his fans will not be dis
appointed. He Is an entertaining
character indeed as the very con-
sentative man, born in Maine
and weaned in Vermont" who
went on a binge with a delightful
and charming girl.
Well, that may give you the idea.
There is an able supporting cast
in which Charles Winninger gives
a pleasing performance as the
inventor, dreamer and "screwball. f"
Broderick Crawford, as Hunk, :"

Hugh Herbert
MET" Stor

Nader than the proverbial
Mad Halter is Hugh Herbert. His
tittering laugh and fluttering
nervous Hnannerisms have proven
the saving grace of many an other
wise dull film. But to expect him
to carry a picture on his own is
asking too much.
THAT Mans Here Again" is
most certainly not one of the
Brothers Warmers better efforts.
There is very little that can be
constructively said in its behalf.
Any effort at a resume of the
plot is foolish. For plot there is
none. Perhaps this is an erro-
neous Itatement. If q mad hodge
podge dealing with a nondeScript
group of characters is supposed .
make sense, then now is the time
for. all good men to come to the
aid of the party.
Everyone, it would appear, Is at
cross purposes. Herbert plays the
part Of an eccentric millionaire,
Thomas J. Jesse, who is contin-
ually at odds with his landlord,
Mr.. johnson, and his neighbor.
Mr.. Murdoch. Every now and
then there is mention Of fabu-
lousy priced Ming vase and the
heroine's mysterious illegitimate
baby or illegitimately mysterious
baby. It's that kind Of picture.
The cast work hard and to them
goes the credit for an attempt at
trying to fool you into thinking
they have a picture. Tom Brown
and Mary Mcguire make pleas
ing pair Of juveniles who are part
ners in crime with Mr.. Herbert in
this tremendous hoax Of the week.
Here and there we caught Teddy
Hart looking very unhappy about
it all.
Surrounding attractions were

cial Arrangements, Porky's Duck

Good Feature Picture
The most unusual newsreel &C
ton pictures seen here in years and
alone worth the price of admission.
The feature picture at the Earle,
Wings of the Morning." is of
British extraction and has much
to recommend it to the amusement
seeker. First of all, it is diStin-
guished by some amazingly fine
color photography. Technicolor
has reached the stage now. where
it is safe to hazard it will supplant
black and white before long. Many
of the scenes are taken amid Ire
lands lakes and dells and are strik-
ingly beautiful. The climax Of the
picture is a running of the EPSON
Downs Derby, with all the attend
ant holiday atmosphere and carni-
val spirit faithfully recorded.
While the story is somewhat
slow paced and none too clearly
unraveled, the plot does work
up to feverish climax with
Steve Donoghue riding wings
of the Morning" to a gallant vic
tory in the Darby"
1t all starts out under romantic
circumstances a half century or
more ago when an English Lord
comes under the spell of beau
tiful Romany maiden and mar
ries her, to the disnay Of his
social set. Upon his death she is
thrown out of the castle without
a shilling. The story is brought
down to the present time with
the lovely Observation-Disclosures
Of the gypsy coming from Spain
to captivate London society and
to make a highly desirable match.
AnnabelIe Starred
A very lissom, talented young
lady, with a decidedly foreign
accent and known only as Anna
belle, plays the gypsy girl of a
century ago and Of the present.
She is possessed of undeniable
charm and has the knack of
wearing crowns. Henry Fonda
seems awkward and amateur1Sh
