EVE. 2Bo iaaa Harlae-Waltar Matte BEAST OF THE CITY iaka Darraw-ClaaOia Dali THE MIDNIGHT LADY MAJESTIC THEATRE Maedchen in Uniform Before a silently enthusiastic audience "Maedchen in Uniform, th much discussed German pictur which has created a sensation in New York, was given its Boston premier at the Majestic Theatre last night. Tenderly sympathetic, but vigorously honest, it Is not a pictur to cause audiences to burst into applause at sensational climax. On tha contrary, it Is a quietly powerful story, delineated with understanding and pictorial beauty. One is overwhelmed that such a simple plot could grow Into such an appealing, such a human motion picture tale.

And that Is why audiences go out of the theatre, not laughing or applauding in noisy delight, but thoughtfully, almost reverently. It needs a bit ol reverance to see into the heart of a child. "Maedchen In Uniform has been described as a film treatise on sex abnormality. This is not true. It Is a compassionate and emotional story of a 14-year-old girl, placed In bare, bleak school for the daughters of army officers.

The child lavishes on the only human teacher in the dormitory th love that would have gone to her mother had she been -UYe. Ana when Manuela drinks too much of the school treat punch she shouts to her associates her love for the youthful Fraulein. The principal as cold and unbending in her discipline as the Prussian military system which she worships, tells the bewildered child she has committed a great sin. All Manuela understands is that her teacher will not see her again. She attempts to commit suicide, but is saved by loyal comrades.

And Fraulein von Bernberg, defiant iu love for justice, routs the principal with dignity but firmness. The Pj incPal; bent a little under the realization that her world of discipline and siict rules is crumbling, stalks away, kraulein von Bernberg, who can look into the hearts of her girls, stands beside the white and shaking Manuela. There Is very little in the story. There really Isnt any tremendous ending to the tale. But it holds attention by its truth and sincerity.

The actresses do not seem to be acting out a story so much as living one. Hertha Thiele and Dorothea Wieck, Manuela and Fraulein von Bernberg respectively, present moments of intense beauty and emotion in their scenes together. They never become melodramatic, and even the most tender scenes are models of restraint and good taste. Too, often an indifferent actress is flamboyant in her characterization of a schoolgirl, but Miss Thiele has skilfully retained that sense of freshness, simplicity an youth that is so necessary to make the story convincing. Indeed, every role Is admlraoly filled by women and girls, who were chosen after innumerable tests and conferences.

Emilia Unda make the stern and forbidding principal something more than a cruel and suspicious old maid. She stands for authoiity of the Prussian type, and her tenets are those of the emperors and wai generals whose statues adorn the grounds of the school. i The mood of the picture is emphasized by sudden "shots of these statues and the military, massive architecture of the school buildings. The picture sometimes border on hysteria, but it never reaches it. There is a wholesome sanity about Fraulein von Bernberg, which neutralizes the repressions and the adolescent emotions of her pupils.

German dialogue is used, but sparingly. It Is not necessary for a theatre patron to know a word of the language, for the subtitles are in English and translate every necessary speech. Hollywood could learn much from "Maedchen in Uniform, and while It would be impossible to duplicate such a film as well as foolish to attempt it, American directors may see the value of imagination and restraint as opposed to bald realism and spectacular action. FINE ARTS THEATRE The Fall of Dostoievsky Genius, traitor, coward which was Dostoievsky? Fedorov, director of The House of Death, which is exhibited under its subtitle, The Fall of Dostoievsky, would have the capitalistic Nations believe that the great Russian writer was a coward, who fled blindly from reality until in his death throes he saw the truth in its crystal clearness. A propaganda film of the type of Potemkin, it fails rather brilliantly iu achieving the pre-eminence in sound motion pictures that Potemkin did in the silent cinema field.

And the reason is not difficult to discover. In Potemkin was depicted the sorrow and suffering of all Russia; in the current film there is, in the main, but the sorrow and suffering of a great genius. The stirring scenes of the revolt and the naval mutiny in Potemkin held a dramatic interest that surpasses anything in the current picture. Action is mainly confined in the Dostoievsky picture to the flogging of prisoners, the bogus execution of Dostoievsky and the 19 others in the circle, life in a Siberian prison camp, and Dostoievskys famous address on the unveiling of the Pushkin, memorial. The rest is propaganda, exposition of Fourrler socialism, Dostoievskis new Christianity, and argument that socialism, not religion, was the solution for Russia.

They could have shown terrible destiny In this picture, a destiny that often ordains that the greatest hearts shall bleed the most and the loftiest souls shall suffer the greatest trials. Such was Dostoievskys fate. But they forgot the man in their zeal to show his error. N. P.

Chmeliev of the Moscow Art Theatre portrays the laggard, and the fault lies not with him, but with the direction. The other roles are likewise ably acted. Best of all in this picture is the background, the atmosphere. Every shot is a portrait in black and w.iite, from the view of St Isaacs dome from the Neva to the Chapel in Siberia. I love thee, work tf Peter, says Dostoievsky as he tramps past the grandeur that ia Leningrads.

And so will all who see this picture. No creation of Hollywood ever touched the beauty of this fabulous city, a beauty tuat blossomed from the bleeding wounds of downtrodden humanity. In the artistic phtography of this picture is its brilliance. WALDRONS CASINO Follies Girls Burlesque Follies Girls, th burlesque entertainment holding forth at the Casino this week, is a spirited, highly amusing show, with plenty of pretty girls and piquant dancing. Comic sketches there are in abundance, and th Casinos comedians supply other pungent humor.

Jay Riaeman and his or-chestra furnish Instrumental background for the musical numbers. Vaudeville and talking pictures round out the program. Performances run from 9 In the morning to 10:30 in th evening. HOWARD ATHENAEUM Nile Life in Paris Burlesque Gladys Clark, a girl of beauty and a dancer of attainment, leads th cast of "Nit Life in Pari, burlesquren-tertainment current at the Old Howard. Miss Clarks tinging and dancing svoke much handclapping from her audience.

Among th pretty girls of th show are Evelyn Murray, Sally Swan and Doug Continues to Travel Douglas Fairbanks is seemingly oblivious to Hollywood. Tiring of tiger hunting in the Orient, he cabled that he was heading for St Mortis and please to send his skiing clothes. Doug advises he will spend Christmas in Paris, where he invites Mary to join him. But the latters late if grand, start In production means that- she will eat turkey and trimmings at Pick-fair, Doug may change' his mind, and dash across the Atlantic in time to sit down at the family board as he did last year, however. Arriving Christmas night, he walked into newly-built Pickfair, which had been furnished by movie magic.

New furnishings were delayed, but when Mary got Dougs wire saying he was flying home she commandeered two studio trucks and moved everything from her dressing-room bungalow to the house on the hill. When Doug walked in, even the Christmas tree twinkled in its accustomed corner. This year, the Countess Frasso will help Mistress Mary keep the home fires burning. The Countess appears to taken up her permanent residence at th guest house. Is a divorce from the Count in the offing? Gary Cooper continues in constant attendance.

They do say Gary may make a picture written around his big game hunt, and that the Countess, who was a member of the party that went up the Nile, may play the role she played in real life. Junior Fairbankses Give Party The junior Mrs Fairbanks got a three-day atart on the senior. Joan began shooting on her story, with European background, the middle of the week. Not a working title has been chosen yet nor have her three leading men been announced. All that can be found out from the studio is that Joan portrays an ambulance driver in the World War, and wears some exceedingly snappy uniforms! Her next picture is to be "Happily Unmarried (we hope the title Is confined to Joans screen life).

"The Education of a Princess, is said to have been purchased by M. G. M. as another Crawford vehiefe. Grand Duchess Marie, who authored the story, leaves New York In the near future to adapt her biography to the screen.

Joan made hay while the moon shone before beginning her studio activities. Last Saturday night she and Doug Jr, gave a lawn party at their Brentwood Heights estate. The magic moon, together with tall white candles, lighted the outdoor setting. Midnight refreshments were served from a hot-dog wagln. For those who preferred to stay indoors, a colored blues singer furnished entertainment.

All the celebs in town were there everybody from Bonald Colman. who rarely goes to parties, to the Clark Gables who never miss any. Highlights of the Studios Highlights among studio news items this week are that Charlie Farrell is washed up 'at Fox; Buddy Rogers, Philips Holmes and Ben Lyon are signed by Metro-Gold wyn-Mayer; Miriam Hopkins has gone off in a huff to New York and nobody knows yet whether she will condescend to come back for Sanctuary. Betty Compson has signed a comeback contract with Universal; Ruth ChattSrton may quit Warners-First National and go to Constance Bennett occupied the pulpit at Broadways Temple on behalf of the unemployment relief fund: Clara Bow has gone to Europe, and Kate Smith Is the biggest hit Hollywood has welcomed for many a day. Th latter, introduced to the press at the Warn pas dinner at the Writers Club, made an enormous impression.

And I'm not referring to the size of the radio star, who smashes to smithereens practically every screen requisite. She is 212 pounds of personality, with more magnetism than a galaxy of telephone pole stars put together. Kate Smith's face is beautiful. Her voice is glorious far richer and more powerful than on the air. Kate Smith a Big Hit Undoubtedly she is what the public wants if 30.000 fan letters a week are any indication.

In her first picture The Big Broadcast she made an instantaneous success, even sharing honors with romantic Bing Crosby. Fannie Hurst wrote "The Moon Song for her now in production at Paramount the sincerely moving story of a greathearted, self-sacrificing farm girl, whose wonderful voice enables her to win fame as a radio artist and save friends from financial ruin. Handsome Randy Scott and Sally Blaine will have the principal romantic Toles. In a forthcoming Sunday story, well tell Kate Smiths real life story, which isn't so far removed from the part she Is playing in the movies. Meantime, It may prove interesting to know that she has taken a house in Beverly Hills, where her manager and guide, Ted Collins, and his lovely blonde wife will-also reside.

There are to be no servants. Kate loves to fuss in the kitchen and will do all the cooking. For her dessert, four chocolate sodas suffice. At th Warn-pas dinner, the writer watched Hollywood's star hit drink two tall glasses of milk, while she ate a huge T-bone steak and accessories. The press agents eyes almost popped out of their heads, but how they applauded when she got up and sang with a voice that pulled at the heart strings.

TWO DIE IN DUEL AT COLUMBUS, MISS COLUMBUS, Miss, Nov 28 (A. W. C. Brewer, 58, owner of the Columbus Hospital, and Charles H. Jacob, 48, prominent business man, died here tonight In a street gun duel.

The cause of the shooting was undetermined. Dr Brewer was killed almost instantly. Jacob died en rout to th Officers said Dr Brewer had been shot several times while Jacob had received one bullet wound. Dr Brewer has been for many years one of the States most prominent surgeons. He was not married.

He was a member of the American Medical Association. Jacob, until his health became impaired in recent years, had been associated with his father here in the foundry and machine ahop business. Ha is survived by his wife and two children. SOMERVILLE WOMAN SAYS HUSBAND THREATENED HER Claiming that her husband, Michael Angeliades, had threatened, her with bodily harm, Mra Fannie Angeliadea of 7 Molloy court, Somerville, sought refuge in Somerville Folic Headquarters last night with her seven-year-oid daughter. The woman told Capt Thomaa P.

Walsh that her husband had just been released on parole from tha Middlesex County House of Correction where, she said, ha aerved part of a short term for oarrying a pistol without a permit. Sergt Walter Reed waa sent to the house to inveitigate, but no arrest was made. The woman refused to leave the police station and return to her hom, Th talkies ar talking audiences to death, says Mont Blue, film star, who is heading his own stag show at the Sq Theatre this week. Mr Blue has been in silent pictures for many years. He also stars in talk- MONTE BLUE Who Prefer Silent Films to Talkie Ing pictures primarily stories about adventure in the circus, on the plains, in the railroad servicq and in aviation.

Although nearly every star in Hollywood now declares that the talkies ar superior to the silent films, Mr Blue strings along with Charlie Chaplin In preferring the old time type of cinema. People listen to gabble all day and then they have to listen to it when they go to the motion pictur theatre, says Mr Blue. Maybe that why the theatre managers all over the country are complaining about poor business. Just too much talk in the talkies. Says Illusions Destroyed believe, he continued, that the silent film still holds the affection of the great majority.

The consumptive clerk or the belligerent truck driver could go to the pictures and Imagine themselves in the role of th dashing hero. When he simulated the utterance of words of love to the pretty, fragile heroine, the clerk and the truck driver put his own words into the mouth of the actor. And the 300-pound cook or the pig-tailed schoolgirl Imagined herself the heroine and words werent needed. Audiences lived the stories themselves in the days of the silent picture. Today a bored audience just sits back Marie Pitman, who keep their listeners amused throughout the performance.

An abundance of brisk comedy is supplied by Charles Tramp McNally, Jimmy Dugan, Pat Kearney, Harry Cornell and Hi and Low, all live-wire comedians. Felovis, International Juggler, heads the vaudeville program with an interesting act. Eight Feet of Rhythm is a clever dancing specialty. Large and Morgan are noted funmakers. The talkies are Mothers Millions, with James Hall and May Robson, and The Impatient Maiden, with Lew Ayres and Mae Clark.
