STRAND

Two outstanding hits that will provide interesting entertainment for every member of the family con- prise the fine twin feature program which may be seen today, tomorrow and Saturday at Warner Brothers cozy, clean and comfortable Strand theater.
 A comedy drama of undergrad uate life at the famous Oxford uni- versity presents Robert Taylor in his first athletic role in "A Tank at Oxford" the feature attraction of the program.
 The story, as the title indicates, relates the adventures of the star athlete of a small American college who is awarded scholarship to OK ford. Robert Taylor enacts the title role. Maureen O'Sullivan is seen as the English girl whom he meets at the University. Griffith Jones plays her brother, Vivien Leigh is the fir tatious wife of an Oxford bookseller, who becomes involved with the un- dergfaduates. Lionel Barrymore plays the American father who has made many sacrifices to send his boy to Oxford, and who comes to see him stroke the Oxford boat to victory over Cambridge, only to dis cover that his son has been "sent down."

you find another committee at work headed by Senator James F. Byrnes His most conspicuous witness was Bernard M. Baruch, once pointed out as "the master mind behind the New Deal" but who surprisingly lambasted the daylights out of it blaming its policies for the present business recession.
 Wool and Water
 Senator Copeland of New York has been prominent in the Senate committee probe of the American merchant marine, seeking to evolve 8 workable plan that will put the United States back on the high seas Another committee is probing into the wool business.
 But these are only the major in- vestigation. Hearings on proposed bills are constantly going on. Tax revision brought plenty of acrid comment before the Senate Finance committee, and proposal to widen the scope of the National Labor Re- lations Act has brought the whole working of that vital law under examination by 8 subcommittee oi the Senate Education and Labor committee.
 Pending bills to regulate civilian flying, on compulsory licensing ot patents, on creating additional judgeships, on restricting the length of railroad trains, and the like, all bring out eager partisans ready to pour a Niagara of words on the ap- propriate congressional committee.
 Congressmen come to Washington to legislate. They remain to inves- tigate. .....

STATE

Current attractions concluding their engagements tonight at War ner Brothers State theater after a successful run of five days include "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" with Claudette Colbert and Gary Coop CT in the stellar roles; also Dan gerous to Know" with Akim Tami- rolf, Gail Patrick and Anna May Wong heading the cast.
 The State theater's parade of hits continues with the presentation of two more outstanding attractions opening a four day engagement at this popular theater starting tomor- row.
 Bette Davis tops the program in "Jezebel," 8 colorful and exciting romantic drama of the deep south shortly before the Civil War.
 Miss Davis, who won the Academy Award as the best actress in 1885 is cast in best role she ever had, that of wilful, spoiled, tempestu- ous young Dixie belle who achieves the name of the wicked Biblical character Jezebel because she defies southern tradition. She breaks hearts with dashing unconcern. She smokes, she prefers juleps to Sherry-in short she's 8 modern miss in an old-fashioned setting.
 She has two favorite suitors, one a conservative young banker, play ed by MT. Fonda, and the other, a handsome young rake, portrayed by MT. Brent.
 The setting is during the great yellow fever scourge in New Or leans in the early 1850's.
 Foremost film critics consider this picture tops in this years entertain ment. Make a date to see the opening performance tomorrow.
 The other entertaining winner on the program co-stars two sensa- tional young actors, Wayne Morris and Priscilla Lane, in Love, Honor and Behave" an engaging comedy about young married life. "Bei Mir Bist Du Schon," the famous swing tune which has taken Wa terbury as well as the nation by storm is featured in the picture.

POLI'S

Reuniting four who contributed SC largely to the success of Topper a few months ago, "Merrily We Live" which opens Saturday at the Loew Poli theater, was directed by Norman z. Mcleod, has Constance Bennett as one of it's stars and Billie Burke and Alan Mowbray heading the supporting cast.
 Sharing stellar honors with Miss Bennett is Brian Aherne, equally at home in romantic of comedy roles In this production he has oppor- tunity for both. In the guiSe of a tramp who is in reality a novelist he is admitted to the Kilbourne mansion and given the post o1 chauffeur. He stays on to gain ma terial for a novel and because he has fallen in love with the debut ante daughter, Jerry. played by Miss Bennett.
 Miss Bennett plays the part with zest and apparent delight in its many -sidedneSs. Jerry Kilbourne t a spoiled and spirited product o1 the modern age and the blonde Stal gives portrayal that is both anus ing and sympathetic. Patsy Kelly Ann Dvorak, Tom Brown, Benita Granville, Marjorie Rambeau, Clar' ence Klob and Phillip Reed are others who add to making "Merrily We Live" one of the most hilarious pictures of the current season.
 On the same program is another big hit, entitled Walking Dowr Broadway" featuring, Claire Trevor Leah Ray, Phyllis Brooks, Dixie Dunbar, Jayne Began and Lynr Bari, with Michale Whalen anc Thomas Beck.
 Walking Down Broadway" is the story of six girls-who dared to live and offers drama as exciting as tht Gay White Way itself.

DEXTER FELLOWS GHOST IS SEEN OVER BROADWAY
Magnitude of Multiple SyIlabled Words Pre-
 cedes Circus Arrival
By JOSEPH L. MYLER

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 New York, March 31-(UP)-The rumble of "sesquipedalian" words was heard along Broadway today and old timers swore it was the ghost of Dexter w. Fellows announc- ing that the greatest show on earsh was back, Bigger and better beyond belief"
 It wasn't Fellows-who has been in his grave these five months but it was the press vanguard of the Ringing Brothers and Barnum & Bailey combined shows which "Dr. Dexter" for nearly 20 years preceded into town each spring on a gale of words as Stunning, stupendous and striking" as the circus they bally- hooed.
 It wasn't Fellows, but 1t was the circus, and it was spring. For years no New York city editor placed any credence in first robins, peeping cro- cuses, the weather man or the cal- endar. It wasn't spring until Dex- ter and his checkered topcoat and his gold headed cane made their an- nual appearance in the city rooms around town.
 Died Last November
 But Dr. Dexter died last Noven- Der, and the greatest show must go on. It will open April 8 in Madison Square Garden as usual
 Roland Butler, in charge of the shows press department for the past 10 years, and Frank Braden, circus 'story man." undertook this week to call at the newspapers which Fel- lows always visited.
 "But understand" Butler said, "we're not trying to take Dex's place., He was one of those personages who can't be replaced. We won't even try"
 Fellows is dead, but his magnifi- cent, alliterative words-to which he applied the adjective "sesqui- Ipedalian", meaning "foot-and-a- half"-roll on.
 Not Like Dexter
 "Of course" Butler said, i've can't do it like Dexter did, but at that, we're not turning out any sissy copy"
 He pointed proudly to the "Maga- zine of Wonders" wherein is describ- ed "The Worlds Most Terrifying Living Creature" Gargantua the Great, 450-pound gorilla which the circus is featuring this year.
 Look at this," Butler said. Men. acing, marauding, murderous, man. like monster 'sagacious savagery,' 'vehemently vicious,' 'deadliest deni- gen. Not bad, is 1t? Dexten would have liked that"
 Memorial to Fellows
 In way, Butler said, the open- ing a week from Friday night will be memorial to Fellows. All his New York newspapermen friends will be there, and so will the famous coat and cane. Dexter's widow, Mrs. Signe Fellows, is bringing them down from New Britain, Conn, for the opening. There is rumor that she will present them to Butler and Braden, but Butler wouldn't say if it was true.
 "It would be too great an honor," he said.
 The circus, Butler said, has been "streamlined from opening fanfare to chariot races" since the Ringing family reacquired exclusive owner ship last fall. Charles Le Maire, former Broadway revue designer, has dressed the show up in "new costumes and uniforms all around"
 The result, Butler said, "is mighty pretty"
 Or, as Fellows used to say Pic turesque, poetic, prime, pink and pretentious."

LIFE ON A SMALL FARM

It's grand old life; when you live farm It is heathful to all and does nobody harm. From five in the morning until six at night The farmer works with all his might Caring for animals, watching his crops, Hoping and praying harvest prices will drop He hills his potatoes and hoes his worries; about the calves that will be born, He feeds his chickens and all through the day Stands a wagon, pitching hay. The goes down, the day is OCT He sits by the fire, with his dog the floor He goes to bed after sprnkling his lawn, But he is up with the birds at the break of dawn, Ready is he to go to work, He doesn't know what it is to shirk It's getting cold, the summer is gone, But the farmer meets the day with a song, Because his work is done And money and wealth, he surely has

Washington, March 31 - If you aren't in on an investigation, either as investigator, counsel, committee member, witness, tipster, spectator, reporter, or just fan, you don't cut much ice in Washington these days.
