Bette Davis, Leslie Howard in "The Petrified Forest" at Craterian ( POPULAR PAIR IN STRANGE GROUP IN DESERT PICTURE One of the outstanding pictures of two years ago was "Of Human Bondage" and Its two stars, Leslie Howard and Bett Davis, especially Mlsa Davis, came In for much praise for their high characterizations. Starting today at the Craterian the ater, Leslie Howard and Bette Davis are teamed again for the first time since that memorable picture In "The Petrified Forest." adapted from the play In which Howard, playing the same role as In the picture, created a sensation on Broadway. Bette Davis Is the girl, longing for love and life thwarted in her desires, who finds in Leslie Howard, a would be author who has come to a real ization of his worthlessness In life, the fulfillment of her dreams. All the action takes place In' the Petrified Forest of the Arizona des ert, in a little wayside eating place where are gathered a strange group of misfits, held together by the guns of robbers and gangsters fleeing from the law. The drama that surges about the group makes the picture out of the ordinary entertainment. On the same program with "The Petrified Forest," the Craterian Is showing one of the outstanding nov elty short subject attractions of rec ent years. In "Audloscoplks. audi ences will find themselves the will ing accomplices of the screen In hav ing fun at their own expense. With the aid of special glasses which are furnished to the patrons, the screen seems to become alive and filled with a deviltry that finds one ducking one minute from a stream of water that Is apparently going to hit one right In the face, the next moment Jump ing from the mice which are crawling their way Into one's hair, finding a pretty girl sitting In one's lap and in many other ways departing from the usual In screen attractions. On Wednesday, Gladys Swarthout, recently seen in "Rose of the Ran cho," will be on the Craterian pro gram in "Give Us This Night," in which Jan Klepura, whose "Be Mine Tonight" set new standards in musi cal film entertainment a couple of years ago, has the co-starring role. With two such famous singers, audi ences are assured of one of the out standing musical treats of the sea son. It will be at the Craterian thea tre for Wednesday only. in I LIFE TERM, CUTS (Continued from Paga One.) Harold Llloyd in "The Milky Way" at Craterian Thurs.

"Mutiny On The Bounty," voted the Academy Award winner for the year's most outstanding picture, re turns by popular demand to the Rialto theatre where It will start a thrVe day run today. Charles Laughton, Clark Gable and Franchot Tone, with a cast of 8.000 extras and natives made the picture, not on a Hollywood set, but at an actual cost of $2,000,000 on location.

Young Hoover's father has been & caustic critic of all phases of the new deal which engineered the AAA legislation. "I hold a minority Interest in the Greenfield ranch, just south of Bafc- ersfield. young Hoover said. "I re ceived $4.8000 benefit payment un der the AAA agreement. "In the first place, I was comply ing with the law. and tickets for the sale of our products could not be Issued unless the ranch owners sign the agreement. "Although the owners did receive this AAA payment," he continued, "they sustained a loss of 925,000 as a result of unconstitutional acts un der the AAA effecting their crops, He said that his share of another AAA payment was "two dollars, fifty cents and some mills." , 11. 3! fierce melee ensued. Hoylman, pow cr.'ullv built man, bested Ingllng and forced him Into a cell-block. Hovlman was regarded by the au thorities as "not a vicious criminal, but one who would run. Jailer Ingllng thinks that Hoyl man planned the dash for liberty since the first of the week when a circuit court Jury returned a verdict declaring him an "habitual criminal." He waited his chance and It came Friday night about 8:30 o'clock. The alarm was spread at once, and within ten minutes the sheriff and state police were In pursuit of the escape. Eleven other prisoners In the coun ty jail gave no aid to either com batant. Last winter, when trapped In a lo cal rooming house by the state and city police, Hoylman escaped In his underwear by a quick dean through the door. He waa arrested several weeks later at Kerby by CCO enrolleea while trying to steal gas. Hoylman In this escapade stole an auto be longing to Joe Naumes of this city. Hoylman has been convicted of fel onies In this state seven times, and according to police records began his criminal career In this county In 1837 when he was sentenced to two years for forgery committed In Ashland. He was later convicted of forgery In Klamath county, burglary In Coos county and forgery In Marlon county. He Is resourceful and daring. The prospects of life Imprisonment, with no hope of parole, dimmed his spirit. WYTIME: SAFE WIRING in a Important as the foundation Olson Electric Phone 115. 3 N Bartlett Starts Today 3 Days!
