SCREEN REVIEW (By Dirk AppleRate) Being one of those persona with the happy faculty of enjoying Will Rogers In anything, I enjoyed him In "The County Chairman," which open ed at the Craterlan last night. I thoroughly believe that If Will Just walked across the screen, said notn lng. and Just grinned a couple of times, I would be apt to pronounce the picture one of the best of the current year. The rest of the fans at last night's show agreed with me, too, I believe. Excellent comment was heard on all sides after the perform ance. Will la the political war-horse who Is responsible for the nomination of his young law partner, played by Kent Taylor, to run against an old enemy of Will's for prosecuting attorney Evelyn Vanable. of course, Is the daughter of the enemy and she and Taylor are In love. Built around this situation are many chances for Rogeresque humor, and Rogers la not th one to let chances for humor get by him un noticed. Steplnfetchlt, the colored stooge from David Harum, again ap pears, this time maktng several of his speeches so that tney are inteiiigiDie Instead of a mumble. Tne wnoie show Is delightful and will appeal to all ages. It Is not the best Rogers picture ever made, btu better than most other pictures made by some one else. Broadway Bill the picture which had Its northwest premier In Med ford at a midnight matinee last night for a paralysis benefit performance, haa many humorous situations. With Warner Baxter as the race-track en thuslaat who marries the daughter of the tycoon of all the Industries In a small Industrial town, and Myrna Loy as another daughter of the old pirate, an excellent cast Is given, and they uphold their earlier promises In this picture. The mere fact that I have never liked either of them, but still enjoyed the picture, speaks well, I think, of the show as a whole. HEX0L GERMICIDE Will not burn the tissues.

I expected the star of "Old Arizona" to be en compassed in aoup-and fish most of the evening, and to be a suave man about -town. Instead, he Is both that and an Informal gentleman who spends most of his time trying to scrape up enough money to enter "Broadway Bill" In the big derby, and his efforts supply some delicious humor. Especially good Is one scene In which Baxter doesn't appear: the one where an old race-track tout gets lleeced on a betting rumor that he started himself. The picture turns out to be fu&t moving. Interest lng and well worth seeing. My congrtulatlons, by the way, to Mr. Hunt, for hts unselfish donation of all the proceeds to the president's paralysla fund.
