They are fast moving, clean cut, well directed and well played. "Rolled Stockings" is grossly mis- named--a common complaint in recent plays--but outside of that and the fact that in it a freshman is allowed to make a varsity team, which is a technical error, it is in every way a choice production. It is a comedy- drama of college life in all of its va- ried aspects, presenting the three Paramount Junior Stars, Louise Brooks, James Hall and Richard Arlen for the first time as a team. The two boys are brothers in the picture and fall in love with the same girl. One of the two is a fast stepper and the other is and "The Black] | bs hard working student and athlete. | Better find out for yourselves how it turns out. The common conception of a picture | tied up with a name like "The Black | Diamond Express," one of im- mediate dislike I rather suspect. There have been too many of the cut and dried "Casey Jones" films in the past for the general welfare of any picture that happens to bear a like name in| the present. But Monte Blue stages a fast one in this photoplay and delivers a story that is so full of human interest and home like atmosphere that it couldn't fail to please. Monte has had some poor vehicles but that doesn't say that he isn't a good actor and in "The Black Diamond Express" you'll find him at his best. is Claude Burbach, who has been visit- ing his parents at 1020 Linden avenue for a short while, returned yesterday to Ft.

Pola Negri plays the lead and Pola comes back in this film to make up for all of those six or seven atrocities that she has wished off on us since she relinquished her German directors and came over here. Not that I accord Pola the credit for those nondescripts, I regard her as a brilliant actress-- even in the unfortunates--and let all of the blame for recent relapse fail upon her directors. The picture opens with a country scene in France in 1914. Pola, as Mona a French peasant girl, is busy helping her father and brother harvest the crops and tend the various farm duties. Then the war breaks out; her brother marches away with the army and her father's farm is taken over by the government for a prison camp. Her brother is reported to have been killed in action and Mona becomes a seeth- ing cauldron of hate. But "General Cupid" plays her a dirty trick and against her will, causes her to fall for one of the German prisoners. He falls too, which Mona's neighbors don't like. Then the armistice comes but for the two lovers even that doesn't bring peace nor end the war for the neigh- bors tell Mona that she will either give up her man or else leave and it's only when--but that's enough. The picture is a new departure in war films in that it presents the Ger- mans and French in an equally humanitarian light by bringing out the corresponding feeling which was prevalent in both countries. Clive Brooks plays opposite Pola and does excellent work. Einar Hansen, the Swedish actor who recently died, is entirely capable in the role of the brother. The other characters are equally well cast and played. THE VARSITY Ronald Colman, who did such ex- cellent work in "The Winning of Bar- bara Worth" and "Beau Geste," finds the greatest opportunity of his career in "The Night of Love" which is to open at the Varsity theatre Monday. The role is that of a vagabond gypsy prince who, seeking revenge for the murder of his bride, falls in love with the woman he has sworn to destroy. It is an intense drama of the middle ages and is one of the best films to be presented in the past few weeks.
