Work STARTS
SOON ON 7-M|LE
RIVER CHANNEL

AS soon as spring arrives, work is
to begin on the deepening Of the west
channel of the Detroit river below Wy
andOtte.
At the last session Of the old Con
gress, the sum Of $1,OO0,OO0 was ap-
prOpriated for the project. Senior En-
gineer III. F. Rock, of the United
States engineers office at Detroit, has
just received word to proceed with the
dredging, which is estimated to cost
81, 800, 900 before it is completed. The
first procedure will be advertising for
bids.
The improved channel will have q
depth of q feet, accommodating large
draft vessels. Dredging will start just
below the upper (tOD Crosse lie
bridge and extend four miles to q
point 1900 feet below the free county
bridge to the island. A large part Of
the operations will be through solid
limestone. The channel Is to be go
feet in width. Entrance to the channel
will be at the head Of Grassy Island,
opposite Ecorse.
Down river interests have lab0red
long and with many disc0uragements
to insure this deepened channel, which
passes WyandOtte. 1t Is expected that
ultimately present and new industries
will insure abundant use Of the water
way.
The Detroit Edison COmpany's Tren-
ton channel plant, and the Socony-
Vacuum Oil Company are already
planning to use the channel for ship
ments OF coal. oil and gasoline.

There is ample evidence to support
the statement that the public has be-

relief administration. 1t feels that
maximum economy is essential IL the
business of providing for the jobless
isn't to bankrupt those who still have
jobs.
1t is believed by persons in close
touch with conditions, that untold
millions OF dollars could be saved an
nually simply by divorcing relief from
politics, waste, excessive bureaucracy
and red tape-without reducing the

Beau Geste' Back
At Columbia

The film cycle which has made
Gary Cooper the cinema's most stall
wart representative of derring-do
brought him to the screen of the
Columbia yesterday in Beau Geste. I"
Further by way of hyping up interest
in the talking version of what was
one of the best pictures of 1926,
Paramount turned Ray Milland and
Robert Preston into the other brave,
gay Gestes, made Brian Donlevy
the wicked villain, and went to town
for all it was worth on the violence
aspects of the old story.
With the mystery gone from it,
10 these many years, that was about
all there was left for Director Will
liam Wellman and his virile cast
to do. They do a worthy job of it,
too, although the picture has dated
quality and the villainous Donlevy
is a more dominant character than
the redoubtable Beau in the correla-
tive violence. JIG.

Ruggles Will Film
Mau6han Plav

Wesley Ruggles' first production
for Columbia will be a gay roman
tic comedy, based on the success
full stage play, TOO Many Hus-
bands" by Somerset Vaughan. The
comedy will star Jean Arthur, Fred
MacMurray and Melvyn Douglas.
Decision to produce and direct
a comedy at this time, Ruggles
stated, is the result of an extensive
survey recently completed by both
the director and Columbia Pictures
to ascertain the current public trend
in screen entertainment.
"Too Many Husbands" keynotes
the delight and pleasure of young
woman who, by quirk of circum-
stances, finds herself being courted
by two husbands, both Of whom
are unwilling to give her up. In
the midst of her enjoyment Of the
novel situation the law steps In and
complexities matters.
The screen play was written by
Claude Binyon, who has written
numerous successful screen COM
edies which have been produced and
directed by Ruggles.

First Love-
on
Deanna Durbin
Is Cinderella
To The Life

In trying to make first kisses ex-
citing on Nationwide scale, the
movies heretofore have achieved
nothing but bad taste. But that all
can be forgotten now for a first kiss
that is good taste and excellent fun
for everyone, especially the specta-
tors, Is that of Deanna Durbin in
First Love-" That picture, as neat
ly contrived as any of its five pred
ecessors and ranking with the best
OF them in entertainment value, has
been held over a second week at
Keith's. That is an excellent thing
for now everyone who misses it can
rate himself twice unforgivable.
Transporting the cinema's most
precious daughter from adolescence
to young womanhood, Universal
makes unblushing use of the Cinder-
ella legend. Naturally, the story is
laid against a completely modern
background, but otherwise the trans
lation is pleasantly literal Any one
who might jump to the conclusion
that that is handicap is wrong.
Deanna is Cinderella. 1t is the most
logical thing in the world that she
should charm the prince, should
have Cinderella ball, should lose
her slipper, should be the idol of
the little people around her, should
Illustrate her wicked cousin and her
ddle-brained aunt. She does all
these things and with a charm and
grace that convince you that you
knew all along she really was the
heroine of fairy tale.
First love, over which it is easy to
be sad, is not treated that way in
Deanna's newest picture. On the
contrary, Universal has had the ex-
cellent good sense to find its inevi-
table humor and to point it up for
the last bit of sweet comedy it pos
sesses.
A fine cast, including Eugene Paul
cite, Leatrice Joy, Helen Parrish,
Charles Coleman and Robert Stack
(hero of the first kiss surrounds
Deanna in the rich, but not too rich,
setting of First Love-"
Next to your own, this First Love"
Is the one not to be missed.
