MYSTIC TITLE
An intriguing title features "Whn

comedy starring Joe E. Brown, which
come to the Slate theatre Thursday.
Marian Marsh, Fred Keating and
Minor Watson play the principal
roUs in support of Br wn.
Racketeer Story
Has Bette Davis
Noteworthy in several respects is
"Marked Woman," starring B'tte
Pavia and featuring Humphrey Bo'
gart and Edunrdo Cianiielll in addition
to a number of other prominent
player, which ia at the Rei theatre
today.
For one thing, it brings back to the
screen, after a rafhpr extended holi
day, the slim blomlo emotional actress
who lost yenr won the eoTeted gold
statuette of Academy of Motion Pic
ture Arta and Science for tha best
performance by any feminine player.
Fr another, it has a strong and
vivid atnry dealing fearlessly with the
plight of a group of night-club host
esses who are the unwilling toola of
a big-time racketeer and hi ruthlesa
gang.
