Y., formerly of Wilmette, is leavjng this week to enter the freshman class at Syracuse university. Stage and Screen News and Reoiews STAGE NOTES "Love 'Em and leave 'Em" (La Salle Theatre) · Sitting in the La Saile the ?ther ~veening and listening to thts stnctly American comedy there could be no question in my mind that Mr. John V. A. Weaver was its author. . For Mr. Weaver, the irresponstble Johnny, was a youth in Winnetka b_ut a few years ago, and t'o kn?w. ht~ then was to recognize him agam m hts new play. He is as sincere and frank in it as he was then. The comedy is a very cleverly .drawn story of boarding house life in N~w York City as it relates to the affatrs of the employees of Ginsbur~'s D~ partment Store and draws mto tt characters well known to those who are constantly patronizing. stores . of that character. The situatiOns whtch develop are not particularly. unusu3:l, but are well knit and the dtalogue ts decidedly clever. The charac~er sketches of the various types are qutte Mrs. A. I.

VILLAGE THEATRE Movie fans will haYe the o~portunity of seeing two of the best ptctures of the year at the Village theatre next week. They are "The S?n of the Sheik" Valentino's last ptcture, and "Bro~n of Harvard,' also a .tate film. Vilma Banky, the "Hunganan Rhapsody" of the screen, is once mo~e appearing opposite Rudolph Valentmo m "The Son of the Sheik," his last p~oto play, which cQmes to the Vttlage theatre next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, September 20. 21, 22 and 23. . . Under the direction of George Fttzmaurice, Miss Banky anpears ~s Vasmin a desert dancer who wms the lovd, then the hate of the young tri~al chieftain. The story, · crammed wtth romance and adventue, is said to afford Valentino and Miss Banky even greater emotional oppo;,tunities th.an they had in "The Eagle, the last ptcture in which they appeared together. Their tremendous dual popularity in "The Eagle" prompted producer Jo.hn W. Considine,· Jr., to arrange wtth Samuel Goldwyn for ~fi s s Banky to again appear with thr star in "The Son of the Sheik." .This will be the last showing of the Valentino film on the north shore. it is said. In addition there will he a Charlie Chase comedv, "Crazy Like a Fox," and a Pathe news reci. "Brown of Harvard" is a timely picture that will fascinate everybody.
