Shine in Old Acquaintance
With the power, resourcefulness! and variety that marks her
work, Bette Davis, in the Warner Bros, production of "Old Ac
quaintance," which opened at the Capitol theatre yesterday again
creates a new personality, 10 alive and real that everything which
concerns her becomes of absorbing interest And since her story
comes from the sensitive and understanding pen of playwright
jonn van uruten, me rum is an
unforgettable and vivid 1 exper
ience in the dramatic play of emo
tional forces. ; ,. 'I - f- :; tj '-.""'
'Brilliantly co-starring, Miriam
Hopkins provides, in the character
of self -centered Millie Drake, a
flashing, headstrong vixen, as
contrast to the fine and under
standing selflessness of Bette Da
vis' Kit Marlowe.
The story subtly tells of the envy
of these two women. Millie's envy
of Kit's ability as a novelist ex
presses itself in quick, unreason
ing jealously which alienates both
her husband and her child, while
Kit unselfishly seeks only to pre
serve for her friend the happy pos
sessions for which she envies her.
Even after Millie's jealously has
robbed both women of love, Kit's
translucent loyalty and serenity is
great enough to sustain them both.

Hummer Adds Peaceful,
Housing Shortage Hits Birds,
Swallows Battle With Sparrows
3 By LOTTIE STETTLER
HAYESVTLI-E Even the birds ire having housing difficul
ties. The sparrows, staying here alljwinter, decided to improve
their living quarters and move into the blue birds house.
I As they have rasping voices and; plaguing dispositions, they
were undeslreable tenants to
have close, so were chased away
with sticks and stones until the
bluebirds" returned to defend
their home ! '
Not being easily defeated, they
decided the swallows' - house
wouldn't1 be bad, but the swal-
ows returned this week to their
former home, so every . morning
the heckling sparrows perch close
by and the contest is on. If either
the bluebirds or the swallows
eave for any length of time, the
impudent sparrows make passes
for their homes.

Little Change
In Grain Prices
By WILLIAM FERRIS
CHICAGO, April 1-0P)-In the
usual restricted Saturday trade,
grains moved wrnun a narrow
range today and closed without
any appreciable price changes.
May deliveries again showed
strength, reflecting the tight feed
situation, but the Jjnore distant
months of wheat, oats and rye
eased small fractions.'
At the close wheat was un
changed to lower, May 1.73,
oats were unchanged to V low
er. May 82 bid, rye was lower
to higher, .May $L29-$U0,
and barley was unchanged to
higher, May $1.28 bid. May wheat
sold at its ceilings but maximum
bids on May oats and barley fail
ed to attract offerings. (
There was a little selling at the
start on reports negotiations were
under way to send American
freight ! cars to Canada to haul
grain to Fort William and Port
Arthur,: Canada, after which it
would be shipped over the lakes
to this country. American box cars
currently are hauling Canadian
