Paramount News Reviews oe vems oem oams owe, At the North Community House Bills "Two Flaming Youths" The two films scheduled for Com- munity House for the coming week are both well worth seeing. Tuesday's billing, "Spotlight," features Esther Ralston in an unusual little drama of how the bucholic Lizzie Stokes becomes the world famous Russian actress, Ros- tova. It is a bit of pointed kidding on temperament and our love for foreign names. With W, C. Fields and Chester Con- klin teamed as in "Two Flaming Youths," it would be hard to imagine a play that would fail to make the fans laugh. And the picture can be counted on for an evening's good fun It will be presented Friday. "Who's the handsomest man on the M-G-M lot, and why am I?" That's the latest teaser from Bill Haines, who's planning. one now called "He Learned About Women." Orn Teacher Lon Chaney will next give the class in horror a lesson entitled, "The Bugle Sound," a story of North Africa.

OE 0 Eee ONO EN OE O ee OE O oxo em OE OI O EI O Fl OX 0 | Ward and Pembroke Save "In Love With Love," Evanston Show In spite of Maude Fealy's sad at- tempt to roll back the years and be an ingente again in the key role of Ann Jordan, Richard Ward and George Pembroke make "In Love with Love," the current Evanston Players production, a very entertaining show. Ward and Pembroke can be counted on to keep a play out of the hole if it is humanly possible to do so, but it seems hardly necessary to put such a handicap on them as they struggle under this week. These two play the two suitors to Ann, the two who fight between them- selves for her, drink toasts in celebra- tion first of the victory of one and then the triumph of the other, pursue her by day and by night and finally find that she is in love with a quite unsuspected third man. Ann is a flippant flapper "in love with love" and Miss Fealy just doesn't fit the part. She can't get the "young touch" that the role requires; her gestures and mannerisms are lack- ing in spontaneity and vivacity. It is studied; pitiable to hear Ann's lines spoken by an actress who utterly fails to be Ann. Joan Peers would have been perfect in the part. Robert Lowes, unlike other "leading men" of the local mimes, is good as often as he is bad. This week he is good and very good in the part of the third man, party to the curtain clinch. Lew Welsh as Ann's father, Ann Dere as the maid and Beatrice Leiblee as Marion Sears, divorcee, are the other members of the cast, living up to their reputations and giving the four prin- cipals excellent support. C.V. RK, "Flying Romeos" Playing at Varsity on Saturday "Flying Romeos" is playing at the Varsity theater this Friday and Satur- day; "The Heart of a Follies Girl" for Monday and Tuesday of next week; "Thanks for the Buggy Ride" on Wednesday and Thursday, and "Something Always Happens" on Fri- day and Saturday. "Flying Romeos" is a Charlie Mur- ray and George Sidney comedy, pre- senting a team familiar to most movie fans, in an entirely new situation. Billy Dove is featured in "The Heart of a Follies Girl." The story is that of a girl's persistent sacrifice for a man who sells his honor to win her attention. Larry Kent is the boy; Lowell Sherman is the menace and Mildred Harris is the gold-digger. "Thanks for the Buggy Ride" is by Universal. It is a comedy with an original idea and is Laura LaPlante's best. It is the most outstanding of the week's billing. "Something Always Happens" is a delightful melodramatic farce in which Neil Hamilton and Sojin vie with each other in giving Esther Ral- ston a lasting thrill. Esther gets a very decided surprise when she finds herself (after wishing for something to happen) in a haunted house of musty stairs, sliding panels and walk- ing chairs. It will run a close second to "Thanks for the Buggy Ride" inso-, far as popularity is concerned. Evelyn Brent is the only woman in the cast of the underworld gang pic- ture, "The Drag Net," which now is being made at the Paramount studio, with George Bancroft as the star.
