COLONIAL — "The Black Cat”
with Bela Lugosi, Boris Kar
loff, David Manners, Jacquel
ine Wells.
MCDONALD — "The House of
Rothschild” with George Ar
liss, Loretta Young, Robert
Young, and Helen Westley.
By MARIAN JOHNSON
'E’OLLOWERS of George Arliss
should find the current offer
ing at the McDonald theater the
most completely satisfying and per
fect picture they have seen since
“Disraeli.” The story concerns the
history of the House of Rothschild
from its humble beginning in Jew
Street, Frankfort, long before Na
poleon upset the map of Europe,
i until the gala day when Nathan
Rothschild is made a baron by the
English court. The story contains
many thrilling episodes all leading
up to the exciting moment when
Arliss promises to support the
bankrupt Allies against Napoleon
and thereby brings everlasting
-glory to the House of Rothschild,
and dignity and peace to his lonj
suffering people.
A gentle homeliness and a de
lightful humor are woven into thi
story, which add to its effective
ness. Arliss’ performance is fine
as is that of Helen Westley, wh<
plays the dowager Rothschild. I
is not without love interest, how
ever, in the charming personage o
Loretta Young, who plays thi
daughter of Nathan Rothschild
and who falls in love with Rober
Young, an English nobleman. I
is the old story of the love of t
Gentile for a Jewess.
Again Boris Karloff brings i
seemingly impossible and certainly
highly improbable mystery befor<
“his public,” and almost makes
them believe that hte story coulc
take place. Spiced with gun play
long galleries of mummified maid
ens, and inky black cats the plol
moves rapidly, and not without ar
occasional reference to the super
natural. In fact the thrills becom<
almost gruesome as Bela Lugos
proceeds to skin Mr. Karloff alive
in the final scene.
Society
By MARY GRAHAM
Prom Held Last Night
Pioneer cabins, covered wagons
buffalo, and even Indians—all real
istically portrayed on canvas
formed the historical background
for the Junior Prom held in McAr
thur court last night. A canopj
of vari-colored bands served as a
ceiling, and the entire scene was
illuminated by chandeliers at eithex
end.
A special section of the balconj
was arranged for the mothers,
from which they could witness all
the events taking place on the main
floor.
Side drapes formed a gay back
ground, and stripes of a softer hue
were used as a setting for Queen
Josephine’s throne, and the orches
tra stage.
Every detail of the dance was
in accord with the general idea of
the entire weekend, a commemora
tion of the 75th anniversary of
Oregon.

MIKROFUN
(Continued from Page Tivo)
I you can play it, or someone else
will.
* * *
The idea is to make the whole
thing informal. The kids should
want to get into it just for the
fun and kick they get out of it.
And it surely would be a memor
able experience for a lot of us.
Many local boys and girls make
good, but we don’t know good
what. This should be a good out
let.
