Sheffield, whose aping of the old
apeman is one of the most thrilling
bits of acrobatics since pictures be-
gan to move. In the course OF
being unafraid of anything, the lad
has to be rescued from such
variety of jungle demons as giant
tarantulas (all right. then, just plain
SPIDERS, charging rhinos, treacher-
GUS whirlpools, cannibals, etc. The
passionate protection interludes be-
tween father and adopted son are
designed to show the incredible
speed, strength, courage and love
of Tarzan in such different media
as land, air and water. Whenever
he hears that Tarzan, jr., yell the
old man comes running, flying or
swimming, always just in the nick
of time.
Despite the increase in strength,
agility and other virtues which
fatherhood had brought to him,
Tarzan remains the same in some

OF course, goes right on speaking
that pretty, clipped English of hers,
but after 7 years her jungle sweetie
still is pretty inept about vocabu-
larry. 1t is part of the fun watch

verb after one of her pretty poetic
speeches. The son, fortunately or
unfortunately, is more like his fos-
ter mother in his aptitude for Ian
guages, so it is probable that the
next generation of Tarzan fanatics
may lose the JOY of the apemans
simple speech.
In producing pretty close to the
ideal escape from the crowded, clut-
tered life lived by non jungle people
Metro has created some superla-
tive animal shots. For all their
excellence, however, they are in
ferior in excitement to the spec
tacular underwater scenes which
star Weissmuller and young Shef-

OF the many animal actors in
the latest Tarzan film the finest
performance is that given by the

You might assume from this that

in fact. for a day and a half, we

their little apartment by his bit

In Concert
By ALICE EVERSMAN.

The spirited playing of the Navy
Band under the direction of It.
Charles Benter last evening at the
American Union was ample
compensation for any disappoint-
ment felt at the transfer of the
concert from the Esplanade to the
Hall Of the Americas, which the
storm necessitated. In especially
fine mood, the conductor led his
group through an interesting pro-
gram that held not one dull mo-
ment. The soloist of the evening
was Mario Alvarez, Cuban tenor,
who sang three groups of songs,
accompanied by Louis Potter at the
piano.
Mr.. Alvarez. who is a favorite
artist throughout the Americas, has
a gift of extracting the very essense
OF song and presenting it to his
listeners individually, as it were.
His voice is warm and expressive,
lending itself to any emotional color
and responsive to his power Of pro-
lection. His numbers last evening
included 'Lamento Gitano," by the
popular Mexican composer, Maria
Grever: Amor de mi Bohio," by his
compatriot, Julio Brito; mo SO
porque te quiero." by Tucci- -Olivera
Of Argentina; the lovely ''Ay, Ay
Ay," by Freire of Chile, and Per
fidia," by Dominguez of Mexico.
In addition, Mr.. Alvarez gave a
song which he composed on the
train coming from New York en-
titled "Pan-America United" which
he sang in both Spanish and Eng

more consideration. A son and a
good script coming at one time to the
jungle genius are pair of miracles
that ought to beget third in the
form of an even wider audience.
1t is pretty clear that Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer is out to enlarge the
following of the Tarzans whose po-
tentialities are greater, in a way,
than the Hardys who are stable
mates, so to speak.
Toward accomplishing that end
the latest chapter in the series which
started in 1918, has a creditable
story; one that probably would
startle the anti-Tarzanites if they
would just stop looking down their
noses long enough to find out what
is good for them. No one is asked
to believe the incredible things which
TarZan does, his mile-a- minute
flights through the jungle on swing
ing vines. his ability to exchange
jokes with animals, his superman
rescues of his new and beloved son
from terrors which hitherto have
been reserved for persons with de-
iirium tremens. One merely is asked
to enjoy them and it is an easy thing
to do the way they have been han
died in this most carefully made of
all Tarzan films.
A lot of comedy, as we'll as the
usual amount of suspense, has been
injected into the arrival of a son
IN Tarzan's penthouse in the trees.
It is grotesquely funny, for in
stance, when the mighty man turns
out to be just like any other father
in pride for his son which makes
him sneak away and pull enough
plumes out of the tail of a peacock
to make a crib for the baby. Un-
like most babies who are brought
by the stork, the TarZans' infant
Is brought by chimpanzee. The
chimp, in case you want fuller
explanation, finds the cooling child
in forest clearing after he has
been kidnapped from a wrecked air
plane by some slum chimps who
have no idea what to do with a
baby.
The rescuing chimp, a kind of
butler and handy man for the
Tarzans, adds nursemaiding to his
duties in a few comic sequences i'm

is wasted in getting the youngster
to the age of 5. At that point the
