Roosevelt Theatre in Bonneville The picture is Wallace Berry and Jackie Cooper in ’’O’Shaughnes- sey’s Boy.” It is a story based around the life of an animal trainer at the circus. Friday aud Saturday appears another one very suitable for the children and for the adults as well. It is Gene Stratton Porter's famous novel ’’ Freckles” starring Carol Stone. Tom Brown and Vir ginia Weilder. The familiar story concerns Freckles’ efforts to overcome al most insuperable obstacles in his search for happiness. He wends his way to the Llmberlost coun try of Indiana, and gets work as a timber guard through Mary’ and Laurie I-ou’s efforts. His romance with Mary intermingles with pulse-quickening thrills. His res cue of Laurie Lou from a forest giant hurtling to the ground is said to offer a sensation rarely yielded by the screen; and his fist fights with lumber thieves form a gasp-provoking climax. "Freckles” has breath-taking beautiful scenic backgrounds. The entire production crew was dis patched to Sonora in the Mother Lode section of California to se cure the proper scenery. The Vir gin forests are so picturesque that it is doubtful whether the orig inal locale of the story in Indi ana approached such beauty. Claudette Colbert, Warren W il liams and Ned Sparks are shown Sunday, Monday and Tuesday in “ Imitation of Life.” With her colored cook. Louis. Beavers, Miss Colbert had • •<> ' - lished on the boardwalk in A t lantic City a seaside restaurant known as Aunt Delilah's Pancake Shop, where the dusky servant’ surpassingly delicious flapjacks had for five years been dispensed to delighted customers. Pros perity had come, but nothing ap proaching a fortune. One rainy afternoon Ned Sparks, a rabid pancake fancier, completely out of funds, ap proached the door shyly and boasted of his prowess as a flap- jack eater when he had the money to pay for them, and the kindhearted Miss Colbert pro ceeded to set before him all he could eat. In gratitude Sparks gave her a hundred thousand- dollar idea in two words: “ Box it!” And so it came about that Aunt Delilah’s Pancake Flour made them a fortune. In ‘ ‘Two Fisted.” featuring Lee Tracy and Roseoe aKrns, M íbr P atricks, which shows Wednesday and Thursday at the Roosevelt, is seen as a wealthy socialite whose badly tangled financial affairs are finally solved by the appearance of two wise cracking lads from the fight world Installed In her Park Avenue mansion by her playboy brother who hires them as the fam ily’s butlers and as his own personal trainers.

In the early evening her husband telephoned her to say he had collected In " I » « * wages.” She was smated, having believed him to be unemployed. Nevertheless the news was a happy surprise and when her day s work ended at 8 p. m. she hurried home. She reached the basement apart raeut at about 8:45 p. ui. and found her husband’s body.

One of the tirst things the Inves tigators noticed when they reached the suite of rooms was a door in the dining room that led Into a passageway about ten feet long This, they found, ojs-ned Into the building's boiler room. Besides the boilers. there were built-in tub» for laundry work and a stove. There was nothing unusual about the room, however, and McGloon and Fogarty were about to turn away when something that was lying across a burner of the stove caught their attention. A Strange Find. It was an eight-inch length of fiTe- eights-Inch pi[>e. It was plugged at one end and the open end pointed to ward the passage that led to the Kramer dining room. McGloon and Fogarty removed the plug and pulled out a discharged .38-caliber cartridge. It was the end of the mystery. Kramer, the police are convinced, swathed the cartridge with packing so It would fit snugly Into the larger diameter of the pipe. Then he Jammed it in and attached the metal cap. He lighted a burner and fas tened the pipe to the stove so the loaded end of the pipe was over the Hame. This done, Kramer stood In front of tho bizarre weapon andj waited until the heat exploded the fulminate In the priming cap.
