Here is the story of 6 hellship =. of human dregs that were it's crew of the heartless killer who ruled them |. of pretty girl who found herself fighting for her own life. It has been said several times that if Jack Lon- don had written "The Sea Wolf" twenty-five years later, he would have been accused of having his eyes on the movies.

 Hollywood-Stunt men are grum- bling that guy won't be able to earn an honest days beating if dir- ectors and script writers keep phonying fights. They've long been accustomed to doing the rough work in bar-room brawls and ring bouts for stars who couldn't afford to get hurt, but now camera angles and sound are beginning to double for stunt-doubles.
 Tn Reaching For The sun," burly Albert Dekker and hard-fisted Joel McCrea have a no-holds- -barred grudge fight in the street outside an automobile factory. but audiences won't see a blow-by-blow scene, ex- cept as reflected in the facial ex- pressions of Ellen Drew, waitress at a lunch wagon, who has @ countey seat at the fight.

The place that got the blow, though, was the Sailors Jeff shoulder-hit resoundingly with his right fist while his left arm made 6 straight jab that whizzed past Miss Dietrich's pointed chin. She caught on in couple of demonstration and went around practicing on everybody. Later she'll use 1t on George Raft.
 Jimmy Cagney does a lot of his own film fighting, and between pictures keeps in trim by boxing but the script writers of Straw berry Blonde" figured they could put more punch in 1t with this gag: show Cagney circling his opponent like Q cocky bantam rooster, then cut to a barber shop where he's getting leech-first-aid for black eye.

 AHERNE TO CHINA
 In "Skylark" Ray Midland gives Brian Aherne one good straight away blow that knocks him out oi camera range--to land unhurt which audiences won't see. Instead there's sound of 8 body crashing into a coffee table, loaded with china, which has been seen earlier in the long shots.
 A trick camera shot and some makeup take the place of stunt doubles in @ night club brawl in Time Out For Rhythm" A fist seems to be coming straight into the camera lens, then audiences will see Rudy Vallee, Allan Jenkins and Richard Lane--battered and bruised with rnakeup-easing themselves from the floor.
 Nobody figured that Anne Shirley needed a double in a hail.storm SC. quence in "T'he Devil and Danie Webster" because the hail-courtesy of the prop epartment--was com. posed of white tapioca, mothball. and white onions, but an onion caught her a clip and she's nursing an eye nicely shaded in lavender yellow and periwlnkle blue.

POLES

Wallace Beery as Pancho Lopez, whimsical bandit, comes Wednes- day to the Loew Poll theater in his most picturesque characterization since Viva villal" in "Tiae Bad Man" picturization of the noted stage play. Teamed with Lionel Barrymore, he presents a swash- buckling, nenacing, but still kindly outlaw, veritable Robin Hood of the cattle ranges.
 The play deals with a group of "tenderfeet," a young rancher and his uncle, 8 girl to whom the boy was once engaged, her husband, and a crooked banker seeking the ranch. Into this group rides I;o- peg and his band. Lopez recog- nizes the rancher, who once saved his life, and quixotically sets out to. straighten out their tangled af- fairs of the heart and purse by applying his bandit ethics. Scream 1ngly funny situations, some ex- treinely dramatic moments, and thrills galore result.
 Beery is at his swashbucklingr best as the fast-shooting, quick-loving outlaw, and Barrymore portrays the testy Uncle Henry, only man not afraid of the desperado. Their com edy scenes together are many. La- raire Day and Ronald Reagan, re- gently of "Knute Rocke," provide the love interest.
 Fluttery comedy Is provided by Nydia Westrnafl, and Tom Conway, English actor, plays the "heavy" role of an oil swindler estranged from his wife. Henry Travers is seen as the banker, and Chill Wills, cowboy comedian of Boom Town, Chris-Pin Martin as the bandits lieutenant, and Charles Stevens are among the principals.
 On the same program is another smash hit, ':.The Dark Streets of Cairo, daring adventure tale of mystery and intrigue with Ralph Byrd ands Sigrid Gurie in the lead- ing roles.
 Attractions coming to a close at Loew's Poli tomorrow night are "The Devil and Miss Jones'" starr ring Jean Arthur with Robert Gum mings, and "A Man Betrayed" with John Wayne, Edward Ellis and Frances Dee.
 Opening & four-day engagement on Saturday at Loew's Poll is the Metro Goldwyn.Mayer spectacular musical production, ."ziegfeld Girl" mighty successor to "T'he Great Ziegfeld." Starring James Stewart, Hedy Lamar, Judy Garland and Lana Turner with Ian Hunter, Tony Martin and scores of famous Zieg- field Follies beauties, "ziegfeld Girl" Is the years biggest smash hltl Don't miss itl On the same pro- gram there will be another big fea- tsirel
