BROWN in “ELMER THE GREAT” and “WITH BYRD AT THE '» • 's> MJCTH POLE” mm Scanning the Cinemas McDonald — “Riptide,” Norma ! Shearer, Robert Montgomery, Herbert Marshall, Ralph Forbes. Also "Three on a Honeymoon,” Sally Eilers, Zasu Pitts. Colonial—“With Byrd at the South Pole.” Also "Elmer the Great,” Joe E. Brown, Patricia Ellis, Sterling Hallo way. By J. A. NEWTON Return of Shearer There is one particular fault about “Riptide,” and that is its length. Otherwise there is noth ing which does not branch directly from that factor which may be called a fault. In a sentence, the show is built about the doubts which husband Herbert Marshall has regarding the faithfulness of wife Norma Shearer. The atmosphere is of the very wealthy class throughout, and, incidently, some of the in terior scenes are marvelous. As the cynical noble lady states upon entering the immense hall of the couple's London home, “It’3 as big as a railroad station, isn’t it?” Robert Montgomery is the wast ing son of a wealthy American family who, with the aid of a scandal-seeking, and incompetent reporter, gives rise to the hus band’s doubts about his wife. “Three on a Honeymoon” also is set in the wealthy strata of society, but not of the keenness of that in the other picture. Sally Eilers trying to escape a disagree able step-mother by spending an indulgent father’s money. There is blackmail; a would-be level headed young ship’s officer get ting caught by the wilful uncon trollable girl, and a dive of 25 feet or so into a couple of feet of water. A program picture. !-— In Little America At this time, Byrd is again in Antarctica, the little city at the bottom of the world which he made famous a couple of years ago with the picture, “With Byrd at the South Pole.” This is the fare at the Colonial—the principal bit of the fare, that is. It packs more than the conven tional thrill in its triumphs and tragedies because it is actual. And it isn't just newsreel stuff. It’s a running coherent narrative. It begins with the party's landing on the antarctic continent; chronicles the establishment of “Little Amer ica”; the blizzard which wrecked one of the planes; the trip over the south pole; life in the “city,” cn the trail, and in the air. If any picture ever had a right to .be called an “epic,” this one is it. "Elmer the Great” is a baseball picture. Joe E. Brown is the busher who wins the series for the Chicago Cubs, no less, by smack ing a homer with three on in the last half of the ninth during a driving rain. It's a swell game. The rest is the usual Brown stuff with the usual Brown gags. Rae Discusses Code At Series of Meetings Arne G. Rae, field manager of the Oregon State Editorial asso ciation, recently completed a se ries of educational meetings ex plaining the Graphic Arts Indus tries' code to printers and pub lishers that are to operate under it.

Filipinos Do Not Want Freedom, Says Ray Bowen The general populace of the Philippines does not want inde pendence, according to a letter written by Dr. Ray P.

WHEREVER the finest tobaccos grow— in our own Southland, in Turkey, in Greece—all over the world, we gather the very Cream of the tobacco Crops for Lucky Strike. And that means only the center leaves. Not the top leaves—because those are under-developed — not ripe. Not the bottom leaves — because those are inferior in quality—they grow close to the ground, are coarse, dirt-covered, sandy. “It’s toasted” uckies are all-ways kind to your throat The center leaves are the mildest leaves —they taste better and farmers are paid higher prices for them. These center leaves are the only ones used in making Luckies. Then “It’s toasted” — for throat protection. And every Lucky is fully packed with these choice tobaccos— made round and firm, free from loose ends— that's why Luckies do not dry out. Naturally, Luckies are all-ways kind to your throat.
