There are three classifications of people who should see "Another Language," Helen Hayes, Robert Montgomery starring vehicle which opened at Hunt's Craterlan. First are those who have an acute mother- In-law complex, with that kind of a mother-in-law thrown in. Second, those who haven't. Third, those who are Just window shopping and haven't selected their husband's maters yet. The first group will be able to re lease a carload of repressed emotion In the well chotien words of Daugh ter-in-law Helen Hayes, (Louise Clo&ser Hale Is the mother-in-law and she's a proverbial honey). The second group will be so happy over their own good fortune they'll send their mothers-In-taw a bouquet of roses after the show. The third crowd will no doubt be grateful for the tip and when they go husband (or wife) hunting, they'll make each likely prospnet trot out samples of his fam ily first for at least a squint of shrewd appraisement. Personally, I'm shopping for roses. Helen Hayes, Robert Montgomery and Louise Closser Hale turn In their usual splendid performances in this piece, which really carries along a whole bundle of recognirable human probloms. Characterizations are fine ly drawn and the direction through out is up to M O M. standard. From an entertainment standpoint the play Is well worth seeing. 4 Irene Dunn Coming In Rialto Picture A mother who uses her apron strings to their fullest length to re tain her sons in a sort of slavery called mother love, la defeated by Irene Dunne as the star of Sidney Howard's vital drama "The Silver Cord," at the Rialto tomorrow. This RKO-Radlo picture Invades sacred territory because of the gen eral concept of sanctified mother love; but It reveals the subconscious evil behind that very tradition The normaloy of a daughter-in-law's af fection for her husband finds a rival In his mother's Inordinate love for him. Irene Dunne scores a peak drama tic triumph In her characterization. She is ably assisted by the featured group of prominent players. Laura THE North Amer. BLINDFOLD! WySitmtheDfrr- There was a time in the history of the human race when the only light was the sun, moon and stars. After cen turies a way was discovered to make fire and some light could be had from this source. Later a wick placed in oil was found to give a feeble light with little heat, candles were invented after a time, kerosene lamps were the wonder of grandfather's day, finally the electric light was invented, followed by the highly efficient electric light of today which is capable of furnishing any amount of light required of it. The proper appli cation and distribution of this light however, has pre sented many difficulties, especially in the home. How ever with the perfection of this new lamp the entire room may be lighted from a single source with a safe, comfortable light that will not cause dangerous eye strain. Turn night into day with this new type lamp. Inspect it at your dealers today. It is not an expensive fixture and makes an excellent and attractive reading lamp as well as furnishing general illumination for the entire room. Hop Crews created her mother rol originally on the New York stage In the Theatre Guild's production of Sidney's Howard's play. Joel McCrea portrays David realistically, and Eric Linden and Frances Dee complete the cast.
