II JT STME THEATRE Now that the peak of the de pression has passed, farce partlc plarty seems to be the order of the day, for people the world oTer are demanding the luxury of laughter. And laughter slightly tinged with insanity, at that. "Yes, Mr. Brown," Jack Bu chanan's latest United Artists pic ture, is based upon this new de mand. Its comedy situations are based upon a slightly made pre mise, one baring no consideration whatever with the realities of life. It will hare its premiere at the State theatre on Sunday. - The story concerns a happy-go- lucky manager of a toy manufac tory, who, in trying to curry favor With his chief, gets into an awful jam and has to prevail upon his secretary to pose as his wife. The resulting situations bring on a perilous web of deecit, but one which results in a lively romp. As a background to the farcical context of the story,- Buchanan and -his cast indnlge in some of the most tuneful music ever writ tea for the screen. Most of the prominent members of the cast are good singers, too. Mrs. McCarter Acta As Club President BRUSH COLLEGE, Oct. 14.

'Broadway Gossip1 THE TABLOID OF THE SCREEN" i "''fr''' aT?- Song , 1 The OREGON STATESMAN. n It IIIG1E1D OVER Run at Grand Theatre WW End Wednesday; Stars . Have Good Rotes Janet Gaynor and Warner Bax ter are together again for the first time since they were seen In "Daddy Long Legs.- in their lat est picture for Fox Film, "Paddy, the Nftxt Best Thing,'-which is continuing ' Ita highly successful run at the Grand theatre. It will end Wednesday night. In this film. Miss Gaynor and Baxter respond to the popular de mand for more pictures in which they are. both featured. And the roles they portray are the - type which give each of them their greatest opportunities thus far. Miss Gaynor is a young, impish colleen, who adds a strong dash of roguishness to her famous wlst falness and thereby creates a new kind of character for herself. Bax ter has the part of a big-hearted fellow who, much as he may try, cannot help falling head over heels for her. The story centers around the romances ot these two persons. At first those romances are separate Miss Gaynors for another man, and Baxter's for another girl. But the development of the plot final ly does send them to each other and makes them admit their mut ual love, even against their will. The characters that they por tray represent two different worlds one the Quaint inti macy of a village on the Irish sea coast, and the other the cos mopolitan life ot a much-traveled sportsman. It is this element ot difference, that is the means for giving this film some of its most distinctive qualities. Walter Connolly, highly reput ed player of the dramatic stage, has a featured role in support of Janet Gaynor and Warner Baxter. Others in the cast Include Harvey Stephens, Margaret Lindsay and Mary McCormic, noted prima don na of the Chicago Grand Opera company. Miss McCormic plays herself in the picture and as Mary McCorm ic, the singer, visiting the home of the "Adairs" In Ireland, Is call ed upon to Bing. It will be the first picture and sound recording save for a recent screen test in her career. IS AT HOLLYWOOD "Trailing the Killer," current feature at the Hollywood theatre, is not merely another "wild ani mal" picture but a well-knit dra matic story containing every ele ment of drama, heart interest, ro mance and comedy which abounds in the life of the great American wilds. Briefly, the Btogr revolves around the dog of a trapper. The dog is, through circumstantial evidence, accused of being a killer and of ravaging the sheep-herd era' flocks. Tho. dog's master be ing found dead, the animal is outlawed and hunted like a wild beast. Taking refuge in the woods the dog mates with a she-wolf and raises a family. The real kil ler is a snarling, stealthy puma. Attempting to kill one of the dog's pups brings about a deadly conflict between the dog and the BttUr rieto-M PfrfMt Pathe Review EXTBEST U KILLER ; 1 m a a aai frrr . . sw 1 .. arsr sf sr bsw A New United Artists THE MOVIE MAGAZINE galea.

Squirrels in Convention, Theory Held SILVERTON, Oct. 14. Page wild life lines! A white squirrel, a bob - tailed squirrel and a dis appearing squrrel all gathered to gether at the point where the city meets the country and West Main street becomes the Waldo Hills road! The theory has been advanced by Silverton motorists who have seen the phenomena, that per haps a convention of squirrels is being held there. To sustain their theory they report that hundreds of squirrels, ordinary ones, run rampant in this district. And each convention has its oddites. Squirrel convention or no con vention, motorists going out over Liberty hill in the general direc tion of the country club, report spyng an absolutely white squirrel at play at the side of the road near the city limits. Hikers in this same neighborhood report seeing a squirrel as free from a tail as a rabbit. These two reports seem to be authentic enough. The disappearing squirrel proves, upon closer investigation, to be Just a clever squirrel with a good act. Said squirrel .will run along for a short distance ahead of a car and, bang! It Is gone. In vestigation reveals a hole, ap proximately four Inches across, going down through the pave ment. Its depth cannot be discern ed from the surface. It apparently has considerable depth.
