OAKLAND TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 12; 1934 19 'BACHELOR OF WAGON WHEELS AT ORPHEUM ROBSON EXPERTLY TOLD TALE AT ROXIE Reviewer Finds Suggestion Of 'Lady for a Day' in 'Lady) By Choice'; Human Quality By WOOD SOANES OUGGESTIVE of "Lady for a Day" in theme if not precisely in plot, "Lady by Choice" came into the Roxie last evening to relieve "One Night of Love" of the burden of entertainment, a chore the latter had filled to satisfaction for more than seven weeks. "Lady by Choice" will not run seven weeks or even three but for the time it is allowed at the theater it will provide good cheer for the countless admirers of Robson and family entertainment with an' occasional touch of sophistication for the Carole Lombard-Roger Pryor -Walter Connolly contingent. It is a story by Dwight Taylor in the familiar Damon Runyon vein. the story of an old hag who is well known to the police courts for her violent souses.

She has seen better days, of course, and there are shadows of those days across her path occasionally to give her pause. Accident more than device puts her into a mother role for a fan dancer and in such elevated circumstances she manages to rise above herself and become a middle aged Cupid with certain financial qualifications. It is a simple tale, told expertly and marred only in its production. David Burton directed this one and apparently had a date at the beaches of Southern California where the sun always shines. Certainly he didn't waste time at the studio figuring out how to light Miss Lombard's face or at home trying to remember moved characters wore when they from room to room.

"Lady of Choice" is a quickie but Ike so many of this ilk it has human Added qualities to that it make is it backed able. as entertaining bill of shorts as you will find in a day's march, a bill topped by that old vaudeville and new radio favorite Gus Van was almost worth his weight in gold in the days of Van and Schenck on the big time. Van has lost none of his cunning on the screen. He doesn't depend entirely on his own effective dialectic surrounds himselt with songenial bill of vaudeville topped by a trio of dancers for acrobatic comedy. As a matter of fact his short is well worth the admission fee.

Pupils to Present Original Operetta SAN LEANDRO, Dec. of McKinley School will present an original operetta entitled "The Capture of Santa Claus," Thursday night, December 13, at 8 o'clock in the school auditorium, Mrs. Joseph A. Dickey, historian of the McKinley A. announced today.

More than 150 pupils, under the able direction of Margaret Noyes, musical director of the school, assisted by the school faculty, will entertain during the evening. Admission will be by invitation only, Mrs. Dickey said. The pupils have been rehearsing for the past three months for the production. Puppet Actors Will Present Ruskin Story "The King of the Golden River." written by John Ruskin when he was 22 years old, to amuse a little girl, will be played by puppet actors of the Perry Dilley Theater at the annual Children's Christmas party to be held on Friday afternoon, December 21, at the Women's Athletic Club.

This is an allegorical story of Treasure Valley and the three brothers, Hans, Schwartz and Gluck. The old Southwest wind and his cousin-in-magic, the King of the Golden River himself are among the magical characters appearing in this fascinating fairy tale. Nor will be puppets be all to amuse to the children. Santa Claus himself, fat with pillows and disguised by his red cheeks and long white beard will be on hand to hear the requests of the little children and to give them toys and ice cream. Mrs.

Elmer White, Mrs. Vernon Alderson and Mrs. H. E. Stafford are among those who are sponsoring children's parties at the annual Christmas event.

For grown-ups a very interesting event is scheduled for this Thursday at the Women's Athletic Club where Christmas holiday arrangements are to be illustrated by Miss Marion Gorrill and Mrs. Arthur Mauerhan at the home and garden hour. Following luncheon, members of the will cross the bay for a visit club, studio of Rudolph Schaeffer where a special exhibit of Christmas arrangements have been created as a special courtesy to the W. A. C.

TAD TODAY and TOMORROW DAVIES ALSO SALLY BLANE Goy COOPER JOEL MECREA IN OPERATOR HALF A 13 SINNER TWO pictures are certain to create talk when they are released locally and whose success has been something of an unanticipated delight to Hollywood are "La Cucaracha," a short produced by Lloyd Corrigan at Radio, and a gull length feature produced at M-G-M. "La Cucaracha" is a song and dance short taken from the cockroach song that was featured "Viva Villa" and introducing Steffi Duna, who has been mentioned as the heart of Francis Lederer. It brings to light evidence of the new color scheme that will be used in "Becky Sharp." I saw the item in a projection room on the Radio lot and despite the disadvantages of such a presentation found it an amazing piece of work. The technical department functions at its peak in the general production and color scheme and Miss Duna gives excellent account of herself as an actress. "Sequoia" is a nature film on which M-G-M spent tons of money and several years only to have serious doubts of its box office value.

When the first preview crowd went into raptures over it, the executives promptly ordered another preview elsewhere, convinced that the first nighters were daft. There had been six previews of the picture by the time I reached Hollywood, each confirming the studio's judgment in projecting a story of the love of a puma for a deer. Those who have seen it say that climax is more gripping. despite the fact that it is bloodless, than any picture yet screened. TWENTY SEASONS AGO TODAY Louise Dana is at the Macdonough this week in "The Poor Little Rich Girl." By Wood Soanes showing.

The third attempt broke the jinx, for Warner Oland topped the list of 12 players who took the tests, and "The Black Camel" was a hit. Since that time five other "Chan" stories have been filmed by Fox and the seventh, "Charlie Chan in Paris" is now before the cameras with Mary Brian and a boy Thomas Beck in the romantic leads and Erik Rhodes, Murray Kinnell, Keye Luke. John Miljan and Henry, Kolker "Chans" will supporade Six within the next two years. Like "Charlie Chan in London." this one is not the work of Biggers but of Philip MacDonald, who never had much luck selling his own mysteries to the studios. but seems to be flourishing as Biggers' substitute.

Phone Hayward 57Y11 SONGS OF YULE MARK ORPHEUS CLUB CONCERT Recital Noteworthy for Its Musical Intelligence Is Presented at Auditorium By JACK MASON DINGING of herald angels and the Babe in the Manger, the Orpheum Club gave Its annual Christmas program last night in the Auditorium theater. The evening also ushered in the club's forty-first season. As always, the audience was impressed by the high musical intelligence and the feeling of dignified fellowship that characterize an Orpheus performance.

At Christmas time more force and dignity than usual seem to attach to choral singing. Perhaps it is then we are most awake to our blessings, and most eager with our gratitude; then we can welcome and enjoy to the fullest measure expressions of the religious muse. The Orpheus Club brought us songs of Christmas sentiment last night, sang them joyously and fervently, and left us a good deal elevated in mind and spirit at the end, which is the most any musical entertainment can expect to do. 0 The devotional part of the program began with Stokowsky's "In Excelsis Gloria," and went ahead with Russian Christmas Carol by Tschesnokof, "Three Kings Have Journeyed" by Cornelius, and an arrangement of Mendelssohn's "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" by E. D.

Crandall. Director the Orpheus Club for 28 years, Crandall adapted the Mendelssohn work with a fine sense of its varying shades of emotion and the club's power to wield and work it in rich harmony. The hymn acquired special beauty last evening, with warm color in the fortissimo, that passages, would and commend a vigor itself to the best of church choirs. A thin tone was noticeable in the tenor section during the Stokowski and Tschnesnokof works, uneven texture to the all recovered in time' for the "Herald Angels" and for Mohr's "Hymn of Praise" which followed, a number essentially robust, which the chorus could join in powerful unison. The program closed with the familiar "MessiahHallelujah Chorus" by Handel.

0 deb I have given the impression that the evening was confined to Christmas carols. Such was not the case. Some of work was reserved for the rollicking songs of best, fellowship, and the humorous ditties always in evidence on an Orpheus program. Chief of these were "Winter Song" by Bullard, done with convivial energy; "The Hundred Pipers," a Scotch tune; and "This is She" written by a music critic to anonymous words, betraying the Gilbert and Sullivan influence: "Forbear to dismiss with a shrug, Her nose undeniably pug, Her strictly permissible, Turn-up-like-this-able, Urgently kissable pug." Lorna Lachmuch, soprano, was the guest soloist of the Her voice is not big in any register, but delicate and flexible, and well adapted to such works as Thrane's "Norwegian Echo Song" and Reger's "Slumber Song." She committed the coloratura fault of missing the pitch in the first few but was quick to sense the flaw and sang henceforward with confidence and fresh charm. Emil Polak directed with vitality.

Mildred Randolph was, as always, the thoroughly competent accompanist. San Leandro Kitten Wins Prize at Show SAN LEANDRO, Dec. 6 months old blue blooded, scion of the Persian family, flaming orange kitten, won the first prize blue -ribbon in the cat show held in Oakland, Saturday and Sunday it was announced yesterday.

Walthall, Mae Marsh and Berton Churchill. Unlike the majority of "Westerns," accepted as being a chapter full of quick shooting, heroic cowboys and maidens in distress, "Wagon Wheels" is rather semihistoric in character, enchanced with music. It dramatizes experiences common to travelers by wagon from East to West in prerailroad days. The story is interpreted by Gall Patrick and Billy Lee, who seek a new and happier life in the West; also by Randolph Scott, who guides the wagon train through the perils. The current double bill, "Madame Du Barry" and "One Exciting Adventure" closes tonight.

The star returns to the realm of modern women in a screen portrayal that promises to become en the highest dramatic effort in her career. The picture is fraught with the mystery and intrigue of the Orient. Two leading men support Garbo in "The Painted Veil." They are George Brent and Herbert Marshall.

An admirable and selected cast is in support including Warner Oland. Jean Hersholt, and Katherine Alexander.

Anna Sten and March Starred At Fox Oakland A world that is only a memory comes to life again today as Anna Sten and Fredric March portray the roles of in "We Live Again" at the Fox Oakland. "We Live Again" is an adaptation of Count Leo Tolstoy's romance "Resurrection." An idyllic courtship between an aristocratic young cadet and an apple cheeked peasant girl becomes a grim struggle through misery and despair toward happiness and peace in this best loved of all Russian stories. The early setting of "We Live Again" pictures, the countryside in the days the czars.

Colorful religious festivals, gypsy songs, breath-taking cavalry maneuvers; Moscow, heavy with wine and debauched gaiety; sombre gray prisons, the taut trial that gambles with human lives, the exile with which criminals were. punished in that distant day, are details in the patch quilt panorama that Director Rouben Mamoulian has taken out of Tolstoy's great humanitarian novel as a setting for this new Samuel Goldwyn production. C. Aubrey Smith, Jane Baxter, Sam Jaffe, Jessie Ralph, Mary Forbes and a hugh cast of Russians recruited from the Slavic colonies of the Pacific Coast are seen in support of the two brilliant artists.

The second film on the program is "British Agent," the story of great love vying with almost fanatical patriotism, set chaotic background of Russian Revolution, with Leslie Kay Francis heading a cast. "The Richest Girl in the World," with Miss Hopkins portraying the title role, realizes that her wealth interferes with sincere romance and is a temptation to fortune-hunters. She assumes her girl companion's identity for the sake of winning a modest broker's clerk with her personality and not her money. The young man admits a preference for a girl with money, and the heiress steers him into her companion her alleged millions.

After which come a series of exciting surprises. Fay Wray, Henry Stephenson and Reginald Denny are in the supporting cast. "British Agent" tells the story of Howard, a British agent in Russia, and Miss Francis, an aristocratic Russian dedicated to the Red cause. Because the aims of their countries were at variance, they plotted against each other, yet her love made her go to him that they might die in each other's arms.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. TOT only Hollywood but way is turning back the pages of history to find material suitable to lure crowds to the box office.

The Theater Guild, which recognized the value of historical topics many years ago, is said to be in the money again with "Valley Forge." a contribution by Maxwell Anderson, turned out "Elizabeth the Queen" and "Mary of Scotland" for that institution. Sinclair Lewis seems to have a moderate ten-strike in "Jayhawker," which is taken from life in the sixties when politicians were politicans. As dramatic debut for Fred Stone, the play is having its Gotham moments. So, too, is "The Farmer Takes a Wife." taken from "Rome Haul," the novel that celebrated the triumphant years of the Erie Canal. Even the Group Theater, which won the Pulitzer Prize last year with "Men in White," has gone historical with "Gold Eagle Guy," its first production.

Here life on the waterfront of San Francisco in the sixties is described in the vivid costume drama. The eighties are successfully presented "Brittle Heaven," in which Gish impersonates Emily Dickinson, the poet. Noel Coward dips into the days when gentlemen used snuff and lace cuffs for "Conversation Piece" and Eva Lo Gallienne is in the Napoleonic era with "L'Aiglon." Even music-drama is not left out of the picture. "The Great Waltz" looks, behind the scenes when the composers, Strauss, father and son, were making tunes for the delectation of stiff-necked soldiers and ladies in flounces. FORTY SEASONS AGO TODAY Charles Thornton is at the People's in "Stormy Waters," a nautical play.

DOR NO reason at all, the case of Charlie Chan keeps popping into my mind, the difficulties attendant on making this popular on the screen. The first recorded attempt to transfer the late Earl Derr Biggers' Chinese sleuth to the silver sheet was made seven years ago when a motion picture company made a silent film version of "The Chinese Parrott" using the Japanese actor in the role of Chan. Unfortunately So-jin was a slenand sinister looking player who specialized in being menacing and he bore little resemblance to the placid and rotund detective of the author's creation. The next efforts was "Behind That Curtain," made in '1929 by Irving Cummings. This time Chinatown combed for a type and Cummings found a Chinese merchant who fitted the bill, but he never overcame his mike or camera fright and the results were melancholy, only a few short scenes being retained for final TELEGRAPH TE 12 61 in the worthy successor FOUR STARS to "Lady For A Day' CAROLE LOMBARD MAY ROBSON ROGER PRYOR WALTER CONNOLLY LADY BY CHOICE COLUMdIL PICTURE James Houck, 26, 3124 Steiner Street, suffered a possible leg fracture and cuts and bruises when he fell from the balcony of a Market Street Theater yesterday.
