Harlem's queen of the blues, laugh at the droll humor of Sam Robinson. The Cotton Pickers, a Victor recording orchestra, provide a melodic back ground for all of the many acts. On the screen with this colored jamboree is "Bachelor of Arts." an honest picture of college life writ ten by America's foremost sa tirical humorist. John Erskine Erskine knows college life inti mately and he has confessed that he was irked by the far-fetched and fantastic stories current today, so he wrote a "college story with out a football game." Tom Brown and Anita Louise play the leads in this picture and are supported by Henry B. Walthall, Mae Marsh. Arline Judge, Stepin Fetchit and many others. ----------- •------------ The beat way to treat a com mon cold, we read, is to rest in bed for several days.
