BlSE HOLE II Emit Jannlngs stages a sur prise by singing opera airs for "Sins of Fathers' which will be the next attraction to open Sun day at BUgh's Capitol theatre. "Sins of the Fathers" marks Jannlngs fifth American made picture, with the added featunes provided by synchronization is said to eclipse his past perform ances in view of the fact that the musical score and sound effects give the performance added dra matic power. Dr. Hugo Riesenfeld, for years recognised as the leader of all motion picture composers, has given the picture musical treat ment. The Paramount orchestra of 75 pieces was used to record the music arranged by the famed director, and Irvin Talbot con ducted. Jennings portrays the role of a German-American, who becomes the richest boot-legger in Amer ica, when prohibition causes him to give up his beer garden. Cording portrays the role of a hi jacker, who in order to get even with Jannlngs for an imagined grievance, has the police put on Jannlngs trail. Although the re sult brings the starkest kind of tragedy to Jannlngs, the fans who see and hear this latest charac terisation by the star are bound to be thrilled by tense drama. EiSlflFSIIOlllI; Crowds packed the Elsinore Fri day for the first showing of "The Broadway Melody" which lived np to the reputation established by the advance notices about the pro duction.

Critics everywhere have agreed that "The Broadway Melody" at tains a new high mark a film perfection and the showi" g here proved the claim. The Elsinore will continue the feature through, out the week end without any in crease in prices. Mottitt Funeral Services To Be Held Here Today Funeral ' services for Nicholas L.
