BROADWAY MUSkETEERS'
 IS PLAYING TONIGHT ONLY ON SCREEN OF COLISEUM

Broadway Musketeers,' the War ner Bros. picture at the Coliseum Theatre tonight, is concerned chiefly with the fortunes and misiortunes of a trio of girls portrayed by Mar garet Lindsay, Ann Sheridan and Marie Wilson-three of the most charming young actresses in Hcll1- wood
 The three girls were children to- gether at an orphanagc, became separated and then meet again as adults at the outset of the film story Margaret is prospercusly married and the mother of a little girl, Ja- net. Ann is an entertainer at cheap night clubs and Marie is a steno- grapher.
 Their lives are strangely inter twined then as Margaret leaves her husband for a handsome Broadway chiseller Ann subsequently mar ries Margarets former husband, and Marie tries valiantly to be friend and helper of both. The exciting climax of the picture comes after the man with whom Margaret is infatuated has been slain by gang sters, who then kidnap both Mar garet and her child.

 STARS IN FILM
 ON LOCAL SCREEN
King of the Turf" Ends Tonight af Capitol
 Theatre

Edward Smalls new romantic film
 rama, King of the Turf, which vas given a brilliant first-night op- cning at the Capitol Theatre last night, not only stars Adolph Men jou in one of his most important roles to date but also introduces a young newcomer, Roger Daniel whose great performance indicates that a new star has been born.
 King of the Turf is a story teem- ing with action and movement and colcr Its background is the eXcit- ing world of racing fans and gamb- ling tables. It's characters come from all strata of society, it's story is rich in drama and comedy. humor and pathos. Forceful direction, bril- liant photography, gorgeous back ground scenes and honest-t good ness horse races fill the spectator with breath-taking suspense and provide a thrilling evening.
 Menjou, in the role of Jim Mason, brings to his characterization a fine appreciation of dramatic values and subtle undertones. Miss Costello, absent from the screen since she appeared in Beloved Brat" is a welcome addition to the cast, adding loveliness and glamour as well as a richly, human performance.

should be taken care of by admis- sions paid.
 Condition of the Natatorium was subjected to discussion by the Board. Necessity of suitable jani- torship was stressed by the super intendant, solution of which will probably be to make a part time job with pay for some person he recommended, as student care had not proven satisfactory. It was de- cided to order gymnasium varnish for some of the school floors which were reported showing considerable wear.
 Bills were ordered paid and next meeting set for January 24.

Gypsy Fiesta
 We'll Received

We'll, the gypsies were at the Federated Church last night as we promised you, and if you were not there, it is just too bad for you. The stage and costumes were an optical color-fest. Not a few thought it worth the price of admission just to see Mrs. Stenson's green grass growing up against the fence. Mrs. Rynning showed skl.lful hand in pluck ing twenty dollar bill out of Hartford Thune's pocket-with- out the gentlemen's knowledge. "The Raggle Taggle Gypsies" dance by group of small gyp- sieS could best be described by that feminine adjective "cute," " or you might say sweet A group of junior girls with tam- bcurines danced beautifully; as did several of the older lads and lassieS while the chorus sang Tn the Campfire Light Ho" And when Leonard Krohlow started in on his accordian, accompanied by Calvin Pool (alias Romano) even the parson found it difficult to sit still in his seat.
 Al Hjellen gratified the aud fences love of mystery with his magic, but when he began spit ting fire out of his mouth, some of us were doubtless wondering where Al would have gone if the thing had back-fired.
 There is much more that could be said, but you see that it was really delightful treat to have our gypsy friends with us. We noticed by the scribing on the back of their wagon that Tahiti will be their next stop. No doubt our backward spring has been little hard on these sunshine-lov ing folk. but we hope that when the old canvas-top wagon rolls up on the coral strand they will remember with pleasure the one evening they spent in the land of perpetual snow.
 Incidentally, the Gypsy Fiesta closes the dramatic season for the Drama Club. The club sim cerely thanks all who have part icpated in this and the numer- ous other productions of the past.
