"Hoopla." Sally will head a big stage revel at the Warfield. Something new in musical fun is promised by Walt Roesner and the orchestra. "Hoopla" Is a story of a man-trapper, a flaming personality dancing the hootch in a small-time CBrnlval.

The story is built around this 'alluring dancer, who makes a wager that she can win the love of a certain yoyng man. The man happens to be fhe son of the carnival's chief barker. He is a youth as tomorrow marks a radical chanpe in the theater's policy, with the advent of two major pictures weekly. The new screen faie offers two dynamic features, the first a timely football tale, "College Coach," with Dick Powell, Ann Dvorak, Pat O'Brien and Lyle Talbot in the stellar roles. "The Worst Woman In Paris" features Bonita Hume and Adolphe Menjou, the romance of a bad girl who wanted to be good.

HARPO The role of Lord Kitchener In the Watkins' novel will give the red-headed screen Charles Bickford, the slickest part of his life. Bickford is now on the high eas headed for home and Hollywood, and "The Front Door Step" will be his first picture after he returns from "furrin" parts. SUCH HARD-BOILED sports writers as Damon Runyon and Mark Kelly may criticize the fighting technique of "The Prize 1 Fighter and the Lady," but they agree with the New York critic who dubbed Max Baer the male Mae West. Maybe you don't think Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer know they have a great find In the ex-Liv-ermore butcher boy. Max Is wanted for two more MGM pictures, and he can write his own ticket.

He has been offered a weekly salary almost on a par with that now received by Greta Garbo. Sufficient to say, it's in the four figures and much, much more than two or three thousand per week.

THE FILMARTE announces its reopening for Saturday, November 25, offering the first showing in this city of "The Forbidden Melody," starring the romantic tenor, Jose Mojica, whoso personal appearance in this city a couple of seasons ago proved a musical event.
