sGomedy, Drama
 Blend In ssVirginia

A gay modern comedy drama set off by striking Technical r brings Madeleine Carroll and Fred MacMurray together as a team for the third time when Paramount's Virginia" shows al the Orpheum Theatre Sunday & Monday.
 Added to this famous duo is a handsome blond newcomer to the screen, Stirling Hayden, who shows great promise of becoming star, in hls own right, very soon
 Adorable little Carolyn Lee, who was seen with MacMurray aud Miss Carroll in Honeymoon ln Bali, and to whom the suc- cess of that picture, in large measure, may be credited, is a gain cast as MacMurray's daugh- ter in the comedy drama "Vir- ginia". This time five year old Miss Lee does some more picture stealing but everybody will be quite pleased about the larceny.
 Virginia" is a story of a "sec- ond invasion" of the Old Dom lnion by a sudden influx of large numbers of wealthy Northerners who buy up the beautiful estates that have been the ancestral homes of prominent Southern families.
 The plot revolves around the return of a native Virginia girl who had moved away when stil a very small child, to find herself landpoor; and her rebellion a gainst the slow, easy-going, Vir- ginia manner of living. However, through the love and devotion of her neighbor and the loyalty Of old family servants, she becomes acutely conscious of her heritage and responsibility to carry on the family tradions.
 The wealth and worldly sophis tication of a play-boy Northern newcomer to the loyalty compli- cates the young girls changes of heart. In the colorfuI unfolding of this romantic tale lies thrilling and amusing entertainment.

 Mirthful Comedy
 On Christmas Day

One of the 'sauciest, most amusing comedies of the Season will be the Orpheum's offering for it's special Christmas pro- gram.
 'fShe Knew All The Answers" with Joan Bennett and Franchot Tone heading a distinguished laughter-winning cast, is an out rageously fun-filled farce which will leave its audience chortling gieefully long after the closing scenes have been flashed upon the screen.
 Miss Bennett is seen in the title role of this comedy, as a night club star who wants to marry millionaire playboy even though his guardian doesn't ap prove. Mir. Tone is the guardian in question, a sourfaced symbol of ultra conservatism until he succmbs to Miss Bennett's blan- diShments.
 After seeing her Eselopement halted by Tones arbitrary edict that. if 1t continues, ,pIayboy Hub bard will lose his inheritance, Miss Bennett talks her way into job in Tone's office.
 In the process of making good in order to- win Tones approval to her marriage, Miss Bennett also succeeds in upsetting Tones dignity to such an extent that he emerges as a more-than-likable

SAFETY IN THE WEST
CHAPTER TX

It was obvious to Carolyn that l Leana Sormi was irrational about I the discovery in the schoenfele Laboratory, and victimized by her own emotions.
 At the end of Leana's melodra- fnatic speech to Bob, Carolyn had 'wanted to interrupt. But Q latent, ! creeping fear of the woman with { the foreign name had somehow be- come intensified in that quarter hour. 1t was a senseless fear, she told herself. Leana probably was just wrought up over everything.
 But no; no, she wasn't either. She spoke too earnestly, too irn- pressively; plainly she had been thinking all this out. Plainest of all now was the fact that Leana loved pr. Robert Hale.
 She's crazy about nirnl" Caro- 1yn half whispered to herself. { A flash of practical reasoning told her instantly to quit this strange new secretarial job and go back to her old position in the bank or find a new routine some- { where with good, solid Ken Palm CT. Ken, the kindly plodder who loved her sincerely, but who had A1o more color than the bookkeeper he was.
 She knew in the same instant that she would never do that now. If ail the x-999 in Bob's labora- tory was about to blow up in her face she'd still stick to this new job, even though she couldn't have said why. Here was too much potential; {; . lot had already happened, and every hour gave promise of a great deal more. It was like being in a mystery play.
 Intuition rather than practicality also prevented her from revealing her presence to Leana Sor1ni.
 She heard Leana's plea; heard Bob take a courteous, kindly, but somewhat superficial reaction to 1t, giving Leana very little to tie to. Leana worked herself into tears and 50 fled rather abruptly.
 Bob came immediately to Caro- lyns office. Carolyn felt herself blush guiltily, even though she had no a,tual guilt. To cover her con- fusion, she feigned deep interest in her shorthand notes pencil and pad in hand.
 That was Leana Sormi," he said, unnecessarily. Did you hear herr"
 "oh. Why-yes." She wouldn't lie a3out 1t! "She sounded rather distressed, Bob. Naturally 50, of course. At least, thought I heard her voice indicate that, uh--"
 "She will be all right. She Is a brilliant woman. Girl She is only 20. mean, well, that's woman, isn't it?" He smiled bit. "Exact- ly when does a girl become a wo- man, come to think of it?"
 T wouldn't take that up today If were you. We still have a nov- ing job on hand"
 "TEat's very true. And you were saying you had an idea"
 My idea was about moving the .x-000. It seems to me that the only safe place to store 1t is away out on the plains or mountains. You said you would need electric power to run the experimental laboratory I mean, while you and your helpers adapt the stuff toto factory en- gines, and trains, and automobiles, and whatever. Isn't that SOP"
 "Yes."
 Bob. aren't there electric power lines from dams and things on.

 The old fellow ended on a genial chuckle, but he passed on when he saw that Bob was already intent on Leana's letter
