IN BRILLIANT SUPPORT ROMANI PICTURE A fay &nd lightsome Continental romance, luxurious aa orchids on er mine, smart aa the Rue d la Pair, merry aa the third gla&s of cham pagne, romantic as moonlight on the Seine, "Cafe Metropole' opena a three-day run today at the New Cra terian theater with Loretta Young, Tyrone Power and Adolphe Menjou In the starring roles. "Cafe Metropole" geta off to a lively start In the smart Parisian spot of that name, where, presiding suavely over his restaurant. Adolphe Menjou seems untroubled by the possibility that auditors will arrive in a few days and discover that the cafe accounts are short the 460,000 francs which he has borrowed. More Interesting, to him, Is the fact that a rich American patron, Charles Wlnnlnger. Is arriving with his sister, Helen Westley, and his daughter, Lo retta Young, and wishes a table reserv ed for every night. Thus, when Men jou wins enough at baccarat to cover his borrowings, and finds that his slim, handsome young opponent, Ty rone power, has not the money to cover his losses, he can force Tyrone, upon threat of exposure to the police, to masquerade as His Highness, Prince Alexia Panalefr, in a scheme to win the affections of the "lovely Loretta and a marriage settlement from her father. To tell more of the plot would be to ivln the climax for ambitious movie-goer? , but the fact leaks through that Tyrone and Loretta are united together after many hectic in cidents, etc. ' "Captain's Courageous" Coming to Craterian Here Wednesday Of the masterpieces written by the great English writer, Rudyard Kip ling, "Captains Courageous." the stlr rlr.g tale of the Gloucester fishermen who pick up . a boy who has fallen ftvm an oceon liner and change the course of his whole life.

Vice Expose Film With Bette Davis On Rialto Screen Following on the heels of recent sensational headlines which ripped the lid off one of the most amazing vice syndicates In this country, comes now a modern Hollywood motion picture that dares to tell the truth and reveals with astounding frank ness the vicious working of the giant octopus that destroys the happiness of many an American woman and home. A very unusual and decidedly dlffernt picture Is "Marked Woman," which opens a three-day run at the Rialto theater today with Bctte Davis tn the starring role. Packing a terrific dramatic wallop, "Marked Woman" is entertainment of the highest csllbre. The plot of the film concerns the millions of In nocent women who are subjected each year to the torcherous orgies and se duced to the vice rackets. TiT'this picture, Bette Davis plays one of the countless women who are swept up each year to serve In vice headquar ters and "clip Joints."

Wards Plan Parade For Bicycle Riders As Saturday Event I love a parade f Who doesn't? Everybody does. What parade? In this case the Montgomery Ward, Med ford, bicycle parade with the bikes ell dressed up and the riders, too. , That's really the idea of the par ade, in fact to dress up both your self ?nd your bike, and go wheeling down the street with Beveral Hun dred other riders, and perhaps win a prize of $3. 3 or $2 in Montgomery Ward merchandise for the first, sec ond or third best decorated bike. The parade takes place next Sat urday June 26. It starts a 10 am. from 8th end Central, then travels along the following route.

Prize winners in sim ilar Montgomery Ward parades In other cities have been of all ages one oj them was five years old. An other gave her age aa 110 and car ried off first honors.

Bi cycling Itself Is becoming lncresslng ly popular with adults, and plans for the parade have taken that Into con sider;' t ion. Judges who will award the prizes will be announced later. Between Lee Tracy, the star, and Diana Gibson, the comely newly-promoted lending lady who Is featured opposite him, a romance runs the length of their gay, high-preifre picture, "Behind the Headlines," but :ta flavor Is more often acrimonious than sweet, until it ends on a final tender note. Tracv is a radio news re porter, and Diana Gibson as a gtrl newspaper reporter who is his chief rival. The screen-drama Is packed with highly exciting Incidents and tense action.
