JXSCR2 WITH HEXnT TROMP tf It was thirty-three years ago that "Charley's Aunt" first brought forth gales of laughter with his. (pardon! her) pert remark, "I'm from ttrazil where the nuts come from!" This in ternationalized phrase, along with a boitt of other expresaions from this good old Knglifrh farce swept down through the yenrs, to culminate last night in a perfect gale of laughter at the .Mdon;ild theater, where Syd Chaplin has immortalized this role in the art of the cinema. Preceded by a charming prologue which touched the henrt strings of thoxe who have known ajjd loved, or know and love, their college dayn, i "Charley's Aunt" was all that was ex pected of jt, however great the eipec. tations. It was funny, and it was de lightful because it is an artfully film ed presentation. The story f "Charley's Aunt" Is familiar to nil. How the real aunt fails j to arrive in time to chaperon a party ; of two t mo rmis young couples, and I how ('barley, under protest, poses as the nunt, is the essence of as funny a situation ns could be imagined. The stage made a great deal of it, but the screen, with the whole wide world as its limits, has given it its full due. How the heart of the director miiwt have thrilled at the possibilities of the ; story ! . ' The flirtatious old lady inefses ! things up in general of course, but nt last dexterously straightens every- I thing out, and all ends in the liveliest ! burst of laughter of all. The "nunt" j has a great deal of trouble keeping i "petticoats down and voice up" but; remains fern nine for all of that. The real humor of the play comes largely from the lines, though the characters, from Syd Chnplin as the "Aunt" to three most likeable girls, all deserve due honors. James . rage, who has done nothing but act the part of the stern old guardian, "Pettigue" for sev eral years, bsa found his place on the screen. "Charley's Aunt,M is really funny, humorous, laughable sorry this line of edjectives i so hy. The M-Iona!d thinner hold I UK people each per formance"Charley's Aunt" will be here four Cmes a day for just two more days. Try to he one of the 11, L''s who rhould see it! And a word more about the pro logue. Though Ihe only connection wifh the picture is that a university ('xford enters in, it presents one of the most ii.timate glimpses of days at Oregon. It is a charming moonlight ucene on the old mjlrnce enlivened by songs dear to the heart of every nne who knows and loves Oregon. Westfir Theater to Be Ready in June For Grand Opening "Westfir is soon to have a modern up-to-date theater, it .is announced.
