Bsa Pi Esy fill ESM ESU 2r A KM 0 vrH U- i Vnf LSM Ace Direction Seen In Waikiki Film0ffering By EDNA B. "LAWSON Sidney Lanfield accomplished ace direction in "Wake Up and Live" at the WaikikL It is an enjoyable screen carnival which exploits two celebrities, Walter Win-chell, columnist, and Ben Bernie, bandleader. They carry on the screen their make believe feud which has been going on over a period of years. Lanfield's sense of humor is evident in his direction" of a gay story with an unusual plot theme combined with a tuneful scare, clever comedy situations, speed and expert timing. There is no faltering in the swiit pacing.

Winchell and Bernie are kept constantly before the spotlights. They perform with lightning tempo the particular routine with which has been identified on the radio. It is no simple thing to play yourself on the screen but Winchell and Bernie do expert jobs of impersonations. They make no pretense of acting, they are just themselves. Winchell reveals himself as a talented trouper.

He swings into the snap of the characterization of the biggest gossip of the day. He creates a newspaper' man, or a columnist in the photoplay that really might be one. This is something the movie seldom permits itself to do. His is a smash performance. Bernie leads his bands with many "yowzahs." He gets opportunities to hurl satiric gibes at Winchell.

Jack Haley has the central coordinated role without which "Wake Up and Live" would be helter-skelter entertainment. This genial comedian is the bewildered vaudeville crooner of the mike. He gives splendid scenes of sustained clowning. He has a great deal of funny material which he handles expertly. He is constantly amusing often hilarious.

This daring impudent piece is successful because of the script writing and a tops assisting cast. Patsy Kelly in Winchell's secretary and sister to Haley. She and Ned Sparks add to the general gayety. Sparks woos Patsy and she delivers wise remarks in her characteristic manner. Alice Faye is the singer who cures Haley of his broadcasting terror.

New Low Reported For Diseases Here The lowest number of communicable disease cases since early November last year was registered in Honolulu during the week ending Msy 22, according to the weekly report issued yesterday by Dr. Frederick E. Trotter, territorial commissioner, of public health. Only 36 cases were reported Deaths during the week ending May 22, were also less in number than any weekly toll since November, totaling 24. Five were A MILLION DOLLAR BID.

Since 1933 your Rapid Transit Company Ham spent for new buses. more for the installation of 30 new Trolley Coaches is planned for 1937. Almost A MILLION DOLLAR BID for your patronage. 7 7 SO Free Auto Licenses In Hawaii A treaty which was signed 55 years ago by America as a first friendly gesture by any Western nation towards the tiny Hermit Kingdom of Korea, yesterday was celebrated once again by local Koreans with a radio broadcast over station KGU. Reviewing the importance of the equality treaty which meant a "new deal" for Koreans back in 1882, Kilsoo Haan, member of the Korean National Association, declared that "when the treaty was signed, Korea was able to join the family of nations on equal terms, and looked towards America as her, benefactor." The treaty provided that if other powers dealt unjustly or oppressively with either government the other would exert their good office to bring about an amicable arrangement, thus showing friendly feelings.

Haan pointed out that in the early days America stood by Korea faithfully, but with the later adoption of the United States' policy of hands off, Korea became a mere stepping stone for Japanese aggression. Preceding Haan's speech, Miss Florence Ahn sang an English "Kashmiri" and Mrs. Dora Choi presented a selection of Korean songs. Pianist were Dr. Paul Sanders of McKinley high school and Miss Mary Whang.

OFFEES TIPS LONDON (UP) A pamphlet entitled "Catching Thieves on Paper," which gives hints to police officers on how to make use of the information gathered by the Criminal Records office, has been issued by Scotland Yard.

Bray. Hlestarkoff, the gay adventure glorifying the gay court life, was played by Marmion Magoon, and the mayor by Douglas Forbes. They sustained their opposing roles with nonchalance on the one hand and the groveling timidity of a petty grafter on the other. The Russian organ music by James Gallet gave not only additional atmosphere but definite enjoyment to music lovers between the acts. E.

B. I In the little town of Nampa, Idaho, there yearns a young man with the call of the Islands admittedly in his blood. A letter was received yes-. terday from the youth by the chamber of commerce asking how he might, as he put it, "enter Paradise." As for his qualifications, he wrote he was 23, was married and had "more ambition than is best for my welfare." he wrote, "that I have read, about your wonderful islands has led me to decide that there is only one spot on this earth in which I can be satisfied with living for the rest of my days. At present I have a job and perhaps no logical reason for pulling up ties except that Hawaii is in my blood." The chamber will advise him that jobs are scarce in the Islands and that he had best retain the one he has.

Iolani School Play Pleases Senior boys of Iolani school presented "The Inspector General," a satiric farce by Nikolai Gogol Friday evening at Tenney Memorial hall.

In the play Gogol exposes to ridicule the corruption of officialdom in Czarist Russia in the early part of the nineteenth century. The carefully prepared program, giving the background of the Rus sia pf Gogol's day, the dramatis personnae in order of appearance, the word picture of the author in Russian literature and history, added to the pleasure of the audience. One recognized not only Czarist Russia and all subsequent human foibles in false worship of externals, but also the fine FOUR TIMES BETTER than COMMON REMEDIES for INDIGESTION!
