gushers which shoot derricks high

Of comedy there is plenty. There

in a 'long-underwear' scene. And
there are Frank Morgan, Chill

Measured as a great human-in-

"BROTHER ORCHID" is
FEATURED AT ROYAL

The famous Richard Cornell Col,
lier magazine story Brother Or
chid'' is being p%icturized gloriously
at the Royal theatre with Edward
G. Robinson of Little Caesar
fame doing the title role.
Lloyd Bacon has directed IN C
swiftly-paced film to take full ad-
vantage of the many comedy sit
uations, and the entire c-ct, from
Robinson down, plays it to perfec-
ton. Ann Sothern, as the bird
Drained girl friend, demonstrates
once again that besides BENZ one
OF HollyWood's most curvaclorsly
lovely blondes she is also one of
its outstanding condolences. That
accomplished master # menace,
Humphrey Bogart, gives a brilliant
account of himself as the Robin
sons double-crossing pal. Ralph
Bellamy fits smoothly into the role
of the rancher, and Allen Jenkins
is funnier than ever IS a cute little
cut-up, known to the mob as Will
lie The Knife"
AS for Brother Orchid himself,
he is the cinema's classiest killer,
and his handling of the role is flaw
less.
Royal Varieties program is
made up of a swell little cartoon
called 'All's Well That Ends
WE'LL" a new issue of Popular
science and Movietone News.

JOHNNY APOLLO" MARKS
BIJOU THEATRE PROGRAM

Being a topflight Hollywood star
is no insurance against black eyes
and bruises.
Tyrone Power, who is generally
considered the most hansome and
romantic-and also the most pop,
ular-of the male cinema stars,
will bear witness to the statement.
Power, who has his toughest
role since Jesse James" as
Johnny Apollo" in the Goth Cen.
tury-Fox drama of that title, which
co-stars him with Dorothy Lamour
at the Bijou theatre today, is al.
ways ready to take any "mussing
up" his roles call for.
And he's had to take plenty in
his career.
Johnny Apollo" is the alias OF
a bankers college man son who
turns mobster when the father he
idololizes is sent to prison.
The story is packed with thrills
and drama-and it provided Ty.
rome with plenty of opportunities
for furious %fisticuffs.
