S~merset Maugham wrote "The ~et ter" as a stage play, and it moves n~to a sound film almost intact. The w.tfe of a British plantation manager kt_lls her lover, but by blackening ~er v~c tim's character she succeeds 111 wnggling out of the crime on the sta~d. Acquittal is just ah~ad when an- mcriminating letter, wntten by the murderess to the dead lover, turns up. And that's the kernel of the story. Miss Eagels plays the unf31ithful wife who shoots her lover down m cold blood. The woman 1s utterly unworthy. and Miss Eagels plays her as such. The part of the friendly British lawyer who saves the woman is admirably taken by 0. P. Heggie. The locale of the picture is near Singapore and the atmosphere of a far Eastern rubber plantation is excellently maintained, according to the report of leading critics. "Frivolities of 1929" 1s to be the Norshore stage attraction next week. Lou Kostoff and the Jazz Collegians, supported hy a ·group of clever entertainers, will be on hand to furnish appropriate syncopation. . ~J~-~D-~,--·JM-~J--~UM-~~~~----G-~D~-~~~-~-~~~--~~~--~~~"--~~~~~--~~~~~~~~Me-~D-~--~J~-~O lt·_a_a_a_a_a_a_a~ -~~-a-a ,/ ..

ATT DETTE COLBERT and EDWARD G. ROBINSON DAVEY LEE POPULAR Davey Lee, four year old star of "The Singing Fool" and "Sonny Boy," appearing in person at one of Chicago'.~ leading loop theaters for the last week, has been attracting large crowds there; it is reported. . The Varsity theater is presenting Ramon Novarro in "The Pagan." this Saturday, June 1, for one day only "The Pagan" is a beautifully made South Sea romance with fine work by Novarro, Renee Adoree, and Do1othy Janis. Novarro gives profound understand ing and pagan grace to his character ization of a half-caste youth whose "only god is nature, and whose only law is love." Miss Jan is, a new screen find, plays her first big role as Ramon's native sweetheart, combining the warmth ·of the tropics with irresistible appeal. John Russell wrote the story of "The Pagan," and W. S. VanDyke, who had a share in the direction of "White. Shadows of the South Seas," directed this one alone. "Nothing But the Truth," screened from the gay stage play in which Wil liam Collier, Sr., played, will be the Varsity offering for Monday, Tuesd. / and Wednesday, June 3, 4, and 5. Mr. Collier himself supervised the produc tion of the picture in which Richard Dix has the role formerly played by Collier. The story of "Nothing But the Truth" is about ·a young man who, for certain reasons, bets $10,000 with his partner (who is the father of his fiancee) and h\' O acquaintances. that for twenty-four hours he can tell the truth-and nothing BUT the truth and still live and be loved. Whereupon Mr. Dix as Robert Bennett gets into a great deal of hot water. Be emerges, winner of the bet, but determined to tell ANYTHING but the truth from that time on. Helen Kane, Dorothy Hall, Berton Churchill and others ap pear in supporting roles.
