COLLEGE HOII
AT THE HOLLYWOOD
It Is a crew race and not a
football, match that brings The
Sweetheart of Sigma Chi" to a
stirring climax af the Hollywood
theatre today. So much for ori
ginality! Then in addition to such pop
ular young stdrs as Mary Carlisle
and Buster Crabbe, Ted Fio-Rito
and his famous St. Francis Hotel
dance orchestra together with
the Three Midshipmen and the
Three Blue Keys plays an im
portant part in the picture. Those
who saw 'and heard Fio-Rito
when he appeared in Salem last
season will remember his incom
parable music and entertainers.
The plot centers around Vivian
pretty co-ed and flirt who
fastens her affections on Bob
North. Like most of his Sigma
Chi brothers, Bob secretly loves
the charmer, but is girl shy. VI
jrian fixes all that by staging a
drowning scene, from which Bob
emerges a hero and hopelessly in
love. All goes well until North
suspects Vivian of favoring a ri
val and takes back bis fraternity
pin. How a reconciliation is ef
fected, and Bob strokes the crew
to victory on homecoming day
supplies action for the rest Of
the story.

Jack Holt in
Woman r Stole
Keeler and Dick Powell, head the
long list of players. Fifteen. ieaa
iniT featured players have im
portant roles In support of the
f Ti. while two hundred and fifty
of the most talented and beauti
ful girls In Hollywood wui iaae
part in Taried choruses and dance
numbers, which for noTelty. In
genuity, and spectacular effects
are said to surpass those in "4 2nd
Street" and "Gold Diggers of
1922."
Footlight Parade"! will bring
together again two of the most
popular players of the screen In
the leading roles, James Cagney
with Joan Blondell playing op
posite him.
Cagney, who began his stage
career as a hoofer and songster,
for the first time on the screen
enacts a similar role in "Foot
light Parade." His part is that of
a musical comedy director who
conceives the idea of turning mu
sical comedies Into motion pic
ture prologues. He both directs
and dances in these prologues.'
Joan Blondell, noted for her
wise-cracking parts, plays the role
of his sophisticated secretary,
who believes that love is war in
which anything Is fair, resorting
to every kocrvil fsnVnlne jwile, o ,
hold the man she loves, and not
even hesitating to stage hair
pulling matches with her rivals.
Ruby Keller and Dick Powell,
who made such tremendous hits
in "42nd Street" and "Gold Dig
gers of 1933," are again teamed
in "Footlight Parade" as the In
genue and juvenile leads.
Frank McHugh, Guy Kibbee
and Ruth Donnelly form a com
edy team that Is par excellence,
while Claire Dodd plays the role
of a gold digging Tamp.
'UUliGATiE'
Victor McLaglen is hack again
in what is probably his best pic
ture since "What Price Glory?"
It is "Laughing at Life." showing
at the State theatre. ' There is no
Edmund Lowe with him this time,
but William Boyd, the Sergeant
Quirt of the original stage version
of "What Price Glory," serves ad
mirably In his stead.
Captain Easter la a soldier of
fortune. A brilliant engineer, he
passes up a career of rare prom
ise, because his love of dangerous
adventure makes it Impossible for
him to resist the thrill of gun
running, revolutions, and general
lawlessness. The picture is fast
and dramatic in its action; and
its background Is both colorful
and spectacular, being more or
less all the strange and far places
of the earth. From the Panama
Cana Zone to Shanghai, from
France daring the, Word War to
the South Sea Islands, the picture
rushes through a series of tensely
dramatic situations to Its final
smashing sequence, when, despite
his promise to the- contrary, no
one can doubt that the insatiable
Captain will embark on another
mad adventure.
Tne cast, listed above, is one
of the most unusual that has ever
been offered In any picture. Wil
liam Boyd, Regis Toomey, Roth
Hall, Noah Beery, Conchita Mon-
tengro, and Henry B. Walthall
stand out most effectively la the
more Important roles.
