Harvev Stenhens, Hi-uee (Jabot and Hetty Furncss as principal guides. In "The Worst Woman in Paris?" (the reason for the question mark being revealed by the noble hearted conduct of Kenita before the story has finished) we find Adolphe Halloa, a vastly wealthy boulevard playboy, and Peggy Vane as his bejewelled mistress at the parting of the ways, ennui having laid hold, and Peggy refusing to accept any more gems from him.

A train wreck catapults Peggy into a small Kansas town, where she is nursed back to health by a motherly soul whose son, John Strong, head of a boys' academy, falls madly in love with her, as his devoted secretary, Mary Dunbar. played understanding hy Helen Chandler. watches from the side- lines while her romance goes smash, Rut not for long. Peggy realizes that hers is another language; so after Fhe has kindled a latent snai of ambition In John, whom she real- ly loves, she Is off for Paris to pawn her jewels and restore the impoverished Adolphe to his former affluent state, while Mary gets her man. Menjou plays expertly, as is his custom, with rather slight material.

Miss Hume Is an attractive rocotte gone right for a time, and Harvey Stephens is better at passionate lovemaking than he is in making himself convincing as the head of a boys' school. "Midshipman Jack" drops Bruce Cabot down In Annapolis as one of Uncle Sam'a embryo seafighterg whose four years at the Academy have heen given over principally to breaking every rule around the place, in spite of which he is the Idol of the pieties, and more than merely a passing favorite with the commandant's petite daughter, who Is Ketty I'urness. Threats of dis- nrge from the service only spur the commandant overhears him taking fullblame for a collision between a sub chaser he was commanding and a seaplane, nnd the pleadings of the cadets for him to stay when he starts to walk out, he decides that Jack has in him the sort of stuff that made John Paul Jones our first sea scourge, so Jack gets his commission and the commandant's daughter. you'll like Cabot for all his rebelliousness, and Betty embellishes her romantic opportunities. The settings, taken on the spot, give an illuminating insight into life at the Annapolis Naval Academy.

An exceptionally good cast assists Mr. Powell and his side partner, Sergt. Heath (Kugene Pal-lette), in either gumming up the clews or running down suspicious details. The blundering Sergeant is part of every Van Dine mystery and has been paired with Mr.

Powell in the picturization of several of these suspenseftil crime cases. The characters are ail male except or two women played by Mary Astor and Helen Vinson The crime committed was the slaying of two brothers and the attempted killing of a third person, the latter, foiunatMy coming through with only an injured arm. The same method of assassiual inn was used in all three cases. Detective Vance started from that fact in his deductions and unravelling of a hundred different tangled skeirs. Kvery person on the scene, irom the cook to the heiress, conies un der suspicion and at one time or another is held for questioning, Several dogs are in the complicated plot, too-two Scottles, a Pincher- Doberman and a bloodhound.

They ought to wear an NRA eagle, for certainly they do their part. The picture will give any one an Interesting hour or so, especially if the spectator happens to be a detective-mystery novel hound.

Direrter: l-y John buhl, i'roduced by Lnuersai. By Ella H. McCormick Tenderly touching as to story, finely produced, splendidly acted, and bringing to the screen for the I irf-t. time the young stage actress, Margaret Sullavan, whose personality is so dynamic and so lovely that she proves an amazing new film meteor, places this picture in an rnv.n me on us uwn Miss Sullavan is one of the wel come surprises of current, screen history.

She is a beautiful young girl, an artist of the first caliber, an actress of training and achievement, and she handles her role in the picture with such expertness and understanding of its possibilities as to make it a characterization never to be forgotten. The theme treads on delicate ground, but for once the much maligned movies have kept it unsullied. Miss Sullavan, as the unwed mother, and John Boles as the lover who forgot create a pair of characters as unusual as they are dramatically absorbing. Mr. Boles, primarily a singer from the light opera stnge.

proved his worth as an actor in "Back Street" and "Seed." and outdistances himself in the present assignment. It is not a sympathetic role, hut he makes it manly and attractive and sends the audience away without resentment of his conduct despite the tragedy it brought into the life of the girl who loved him so deeply. Throughout the story emotional response Is inevitable. Tears will be shed unshamedly. Miss Sullavan plays uneeringly upon the heart strings.

Every woman will adore Jimmy Butler, the twelve-year-old whna( gcrc'Pn debut it is, as the beloved son his mother rears and who, when the relationship Is revealed, saves his father from taking his own life. The child is ingenuously boyish and natural. The story should not be told: It should be lived with its screen protagonists. Its beauty and Miss Sul-lavan's artistry will enthrall you. There is much laughter, music and dancing in the stage show presented by Alex Hyde and his company and offering an orchestra, Four Rhythm Queens, Three Sailors, Ruth Brent nnd Elaine Arndt and the dancing chorus.

Fight fans will be particularly interested in the 10-round bout between Max Baer and Primo Car-nera that is the rlimax of this film. The fight looks like the real thing, and is cleverly filmed with Jack i Dcmpsey as referee.

The picture is Baer's introduction to the screen and it can be said truthfully that he turns out to be a good performer, easy in deportment and speech, apparently not camera-shy, and disclosing talents for singing and dancing of better quality than possessed by many musical comedy pretenders. Except for a bashed-in nose ha is good looking as the camera men have treated him, which, added to hia physical prowess, makes believable the keen way in which Myrna Doy, as a cafe crooner, falls for him. She marries him and between her and his manager and trainer, adroitly portrayed by Walter Huston, lie becomes an invincible boxer. But, as sporting historians will tell you, in true life success goes to his head, swells it out of all proportions and he two-times, over and over again, his wife and his trainer. Women, high living, public adultation are his undoing and as an example of a fatuous ingrate lie approaches his big match with Camera.

When his opponent fists were getting in heavy toll, wife and trainer, sore in heart and head but still loyal, step to the ringside and give him encouragement and coaching that ends the scrap in a draw. It's a fiEht that brings the plaudits, any. wa y. Miss Dov is pleasanter to look at than to hear an inane torch song that is supposed to knock the customers cold in the night club run by the man who was her sweetheart before she met Max. Otto Kruger plays this role in a fashion to emphasize his gifts as a first order actor of stage and screen.

He is a racketeer with bodyguards all over the place, and Is reputed extra handy with the trigger but, happily, no shots are fired throughout the opus. He just loves the girl, that's all, end suffers silently for her sake, like a hero. He just can't compete with the prizefighter who sweeps the ladies right off their dancing toes.

Child Traffic Toll Brings an Appeal Official Asks Drivers to Use More Care An atipeal to motorists, parents and piilire to take greater precautions for the safety of children In Detroit's stic-ts was made Friday by Clarence E. Brewer, recreation commissioner, at a meeting of the safety and traffic committee of the Detroit Automobile Chili. The plea was prompted by the sudden rise in traffic fatalities among children in October, when If) children died through motor ac-! cidents. The total for the year was brought to 52 children, which Is almost SO per cent higher than the toll for the same period of Brew, said.

Early twilight hours, closed windows, skidding on fallen leaves and other hazards brought on by autumn are paitly responsible for the leap in the child tralllc death rate, l'-rewer pointed out, but should he met by even greater care on the part of both drivers and pedestrians.
