'Don't Miss See Aunt" Hilario At New Martins Tuesday ing "Charley's us Screen Fare Charlie Ruggles hit the high spot of his career in "Charley's Aunt," the Columbia laugh riot, produced by Christie, which opens at the PMartin Theatre for a 4 day run, This comedy of life at Oxford Uni- versity offers the inimitable comed- jan limitless opportunities tor fun making of which he takes every ad- The result is a laugh mar- athon, Nobody could possibly sit through this performance without having his funny bone tickled--and Ruggles is the central figyre every time. England is the locale and the heroes are a couple of Oxford stu- dents, Jack Chesney and Charley Wykeham, who invent ways and means to win the two girls of their choice. In order to do this, they have to outwit old man Spettigue, thie girls' guardian. Wen "Charley's- Aunt," the wealthy Brazilian widow, Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez, cables that she is about to arrive for a visit, the boys breathé more easily and invite the girls to luncheon to meet her. Donna Lucia fails to ar- rive on scheduled time and "Babbs, a fellow college student, is pressed into service to impersonate the chaperon. The absurd mix-up that follows, which is rurther involved by the arrival of the real Donna Lucia, supplies the rest of the action for this irresistible farce. : Charlie Ruggles plays, "Babbs," and his antics' in the disguise of Donna Lucia are the basis of most of the fun. The supporting cast is uniformly good, with special honors going to Rodney McLennon and Hugh Williams who play Charlie Wykeham and Jack Chesney res- pectively. Charming Doris Lloyd introduces a note of distinction in the role of the real Donna Lucia. Others who deserve mention are June Collyer, who gives a charming performance and looks her usual at- tractive &elf, Flora Sheffield, Phil- lips 'Smallev, Flora Le Breton and Halliwell Hobbes.

June Collyer in "Charley's Aunt" THE SIN SHIP TODAY & MONDAY AT NEW MARTIN For sheer melodramatic power, Radio Pictures' powerful romance, "The Sin Ship", coming to the New Martin Theatre has seldom been equalled on .the talking screen. The story starts with dramatic suddenness--a beautiful girl on the high seas in the grip of a thief, a "lady killing" sea captain, a pair of coyvetous mates and a crew of brutes. Mary Astor is the girl; Louis Wolheim is the captain; Hugh Her- bert ahd Alan Roscoe the mates, and Ian Keith the thier. Wolheim directed the production. A novel mystery element is in- troduced, because nowhere in the production at the psychological moment is there a handsome hero nrepared to save the girl.

It is that of a spinster of 36 who saves a young man with whom she has always heen in love from prison by paying his debts, In fact, she buys him as a husband. "The woman fis starving for leve, but she feels that to buy it as she has done is infamous," says E. A. Baughan, theatre critie of The NEWS-CHRONICLE. 'She punishes herself by treating him with the utmost cruelty, With the help of a man servant, who is intended, I presume, to be the sinister but was merely comie in the English version at the Em- bassy Theatre recently, she keeps her hushand a prisoner. ' Certain- ly she had suffered, for on her very marriage day the husband tells her she is loathsome. In clinging to the bargain she is in- ter.ded to be abnormal. '""The best scene in the play for Sybil Thorndike, who played the part of the spinster, was when she realized the man she lovel bated her. But the part should be played, T think, by an actress who more fully realizes the ab- normal sexual passion of th: wo- man. Sybil A Thorndike realized the hate strongly enough, hut did nct suggest that behind it was overpowering passion, "In the end the money is re- paid and the husband f's free. For a moment he hesitates to leave, and the wife hopes that he has come to love her. But, natu- rally enough, he takes the oppor- tunity of escaping from his slav- ery and she shoots herself. "To English audiences many of the circumstances of the play will seem foolish, but I can imagine it would not have that effect if acted by a French company." One of the disadvantages of being a celebrity is being pester- ed by autograph fiends.
