It concerns Just three persons, and the scene is laid during war-time in a pass between the Austrian and Italian lines.

If. seems Inevitable that Miss Hayes should appear In a play or picture with war background. This, at least, one may say since "Farewell to Arms" and "The White Sister." Noted Team May Visit Here Dispatch from the East vaguely hints that Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne may visit the Coast before going abroad. No suggestion the movies, though. It's Just a vacation trip and they will probably depart from here by boat, with a view to visiting the Far East and later, especially, Egypt.

When they reach London they may possibly do a play there for Gilbert Miller. Monday night a week ago. Tuesday he took a test, Wednesday he resigned from his play and.

stopping final effect Is vaguely one of disappointment; of, if I may use the term, Incomplete theater. Modernized, the picture has been brilliantly dialogued by Donald Og-den Stewart. Perhaps, too brilliantly; too fllply, too much in the vernacular, in its earlier scenes, to allow the full dramatic undertone always to be heard. It Is possible, even probable, that Angela would have turned, when she does, from material things to the spiritual; but the full resources of the film's last half are required to convert us to the notion. These sequences are reverently treated; the whole production, in fact, has been beautifully mounted and photographed, and an atmospheric score tastefully emphasizes the romantic portions.

Miss Hayes has moments of sheer magic; surely she is our foremost screen actress. They come upon you, these moments, without warning; illuminating facets which define a perhaps ordinary scene and make It memorable. Gable's performance varies; he does not al only to pack his suit case, he dashed ror an airplane, arriving here he came back, after years In an Austrian prison camp, she had taken the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience to the church So, familiarly, runs the story of "Tns White- Sister," which, once a novel, once a play, and twice a silent picture, is now a talkie at Loew's State Theater. Shining Helen Hayes has the role of Angela, Clark Gable the role of Severi. Assured a popular reception by the presence of these two.

it la a good film despite the fact that it Is often in conflict with itself. Cinema regulars who remember the version with Lillian Gish will occasionally note a startling similarity between her and Miss Hayes. Yet their performances are, actu-ailv, as unlike as possible.

Like "A Farewell to Arms," the present subject Is a love story against a background of war.

"Song of the Eagle" which arrived at the Paramount Theater yesterday, is a beer picture. It is one of the first to tell the story of the return of the foaming stein and the reopening of the breweries. It goes further than mere events of today It tells a story of what may happen or may be happening should the gangsters and racketeers move in on the legitimate brewing business; should they attempt to take their "cut" by aid of machine' gun and sawed-off shotgun from the men who are breaking no laws. It offers a solution should such raiding occur. It depicts a fight to the death between the honest, established brewers and the lawless element that has.

sprung up in big cities since prohibition and the war. Interesting because it deals with a phase of contemporary history, intriguing because of its power and force, convincing in its realistic effects, "Song of the Eagle" is one of the better pictures of today. Richard Arlen plays the role of the young brewery master of today, son of an honest old German (Jean Hersholt,) whose amber pale beer had become a nation byword in ished a two weeks' vacation in Italy ELMER battle down the gangsters. Arlen is natural, simple and convincing and does his best work. Charles Bickford is the former Hoffman truck driver, raised to prangster heights, drunk with his ill-gotten power and wealth.

Mary Brian, looking demurely lovely, is the romantic element. Hersholt is the broken-hearted old brewer and Louise Dresser his wife. Splendid are the scenes between Hersholt and Miss Dresser, and particularly fine the meeting of Miss Dresser and the truck driver. George E. Stone, as the racketeer's chief henchman, has an unusually fine scene when he walks out of the brewery to his death rather than kill the old war-time comrade.

"Song of the Eagle" was produced Independently by Charles R. Rogers, It was directed by Ralph Murphy from an adaptation by Casey Robinson and Willard Mack of an original story by Graham Baker and Gene Towne. The stage show at the Paramount this week features none other than your radio friend, Chandu, the magician, otherwise known as Gayne Whitman. Whitman, who graduated from the Morosco teheater star ranks, is Just as Intriguing in person as over the air. The Fanchon and Marco show Is called, in tune with the times, "Bicycle Follies" and features Rube Wolf, and Buster West.

She Is simultaneously to be featured In a series of dramatic offerings over the British Broadcasting THE Third Week of Play Starting at El Capitan "Counsellor-at-Law," Elmer Rice's play starring Otto Kruger, begins its third week tomorrow at El Capitan Theater.
