."When Ladies Meet" Gives
? Harding - Montgomery -Team
Real Chance
The thesis of "When Ladies
Meet." opening today at the El
slnore, la based on the conclusions
of what would happen when the
wife of a philandering husband
meets the woman on whom this
husband is now lavishing his at
tentions. The plot achieves its or
iginality on the fact that its situa
tions are so ingeniously arranged
that neither of the rival women is
aware of the other's-Identity.
They are unexpectedly brought
together at the home of a friend
and before long, take each other
into mutual confidence. When
each discovers who the other Is,
the sparks begin to fly.
Ann Harding .plays the wife In
danger of losing her husband, and
Myrna Loy has -the role of "the
other woman." Frank Morgan is
the husband, while Robert Mont
gomery plays the wily young
newspaperman who. In an endeav
or to show Miss Loy the futility
of her hold on a married man,
fcrinrm tfc trio together at the
country home of Alice Btsdy
where the complications come io
a brilliantly dramatic turn.
The settings in "When Ladles
Meet" range from a millionaire's
boathonse on the Hudson river to
a rambling and picturesque re
modeled farm house In Connecti
cut They were designed by Cedric
Gibbons, with Interiors by Edwin
Willis, and are said to have at
tract e d considerable attention
during the filming ofthe produc
tion. In addition to the strong drama
of the feature there is a wild com
edy by Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy
entitled "Me and My Pal."
What this will be like can eas
ily be imagined and no Laurel
and Hardy fan will miss the fun
if it is at all possible to see it.
the deposed chief executive.
The army leaders, who yester
day seized the harbor fortresses
and other points ot advantage
without firing a shot, approved
the choice of Senor Cespedes as
the new president and gave per

him with the appointment and he
did. " -
The incident is only important
as It reveals that Pierce via Far

tional committee post, holds 'the
patronage power. Pierce approv
ed Alexander tor the Alaska Job.

Offering Now
In "It's Great to be Alive," the
new Fox musical comedy which
opens at the Grand theatre to
day, you have a full sesson of
hilarity.
Telling the story of a man who
fluids himself literally the last
man on earth, the film depicts a
world populated entirely by wom
en, each of whom has one end in
view to get that solitary male.
It la a dread disease that wipes
the globe clean of the masculine
sex. The women are unprepared
for such a contingency, and what
goes on toward a solution ot this
emergency forms the extremely
funny basis for the picture.
With the comedy in the expert
hands ot Edna May Oliver and
Herbert Mundln, "It's Great to be
Alive" has a generous supply of
sclntillant moments.
deputy In Mr. , Maloneys office.
The word was relayed around re
cently that Delzell, being over it,
was not eligible to appointment.
Now comes equally authentic' In
formation -that tha. horse-traders
la the party have looked Delzell
over, -found him free from spavins
and' trained to walk, trot or ean
ter, and 'maneuvered the 55-year
rule Into obscurity. Be It noted
that Mr. Delxell was for some time
Mr.- Pierce's secretary and thus In
1933 has the inner track to the
patronage. Delsell's r.ppointment,
when made, will give way to his
selection as Salem postmaster, it
is thought, when that position is
ready for tilling. Milt Miller was
wafted into Ed Croisan's customs
berth two years in advance of the
time Croisan's commission expir
ed but Mr. Farley has indicated
this is an exception to his rule of
leaving incumbents in until their
appointment term expires. Far
ley's trouble, as evidenced in the
Miller appointment, is fighting
the "deserving demos" away from
the trough. Sometimes Farley
weakens; the office wolves are
too lean and hungry.
Another pertinent reason for a
special session is. very much in
evidence since August 1: the
growing discontent of state work
ers and officials with straight
laced salary schedules adopted by
the last legislature to be in effect
two years. NRA may come and
go but the statehouse employes,
so tar, are untouched. They are
not unmoved. If ."Papa" Wood
