The subject matter is centered upon what happens when a person wishes for something to hap- pen and Neil Hamilton and Sojin vie with one another in giving Esther Ralston a lasting thrill. It is a de- lightful melodramatic farce and should please. No advance information is avail- able on "The Sporting Age," a Belle Bennett feature which has been scheduled by Lubliner and Trinz for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Considering Belle's past achievements, however, it's a pretty safe bet that it will be good entertainment. Johnny Hines' "Chinatown Charley" concludes the week's program. "Chinatown Charley" is one of Johnny's very best productions. It's full of gags and laughs and is refresh- ingly free from the usual comedy formula. Nice melodrama, thrills enough and a splendid supporting cast. COSMOPOLITAN CAST The cast of Laura La Plantes starring vehicle for Universal, "Thanks for the Buggy Ride," is truly cosmo- politan. Miss La Plante was born in St. Louis, Mo.; Glenn Tryon, Butte, Mont.; David Rollins, Kansas City, Mo.; Trixie -Friganza, Ly Cygne, Kan.; Kate Price, Cork, Ireland, and Lee Moran, Chicago, III. Every Friday Night Is "NORTHWESTERN NIGHT" "College" Frolic begins at 9 P. M. STARTING SUNDAY AL KVALE AND HIS JAZZ COLLEGIANS in "THE DIXIE FLYER" featuring RED FINNEGAN EVANS 8 MAYER KELO BROS. "JAZZ LIPS" RICHARD- SON NORSHORE BALLET --On Screen-- MARY PICKFORD "My Best Girl" Every Saturday--Deluxe Kvale Coo-Coo Club Matinee, 3:00 P. M. Bring the children. Go to the Movies Next Week; You'll Have a Good Time The coming week is one period of seven days, insofar as north shore movie houses are concerned, that al- most regardless of which night or which theater you choose, you can return home after the show without the feeling of having wasted a perfect- ly good evening. Teatro del Lago starts the week's roster Sunday with Ramon Novarro in the "Student Prince." The story needs no introduction so it remains but to say that the film is beautiful. Jean Hersholt as Dr. Juttner, the prince's tutor, is lovable and provides an in- teresting and touching bit to the picture. Ramon is, as always,--well, himself. Norma Shearer plays the role of Kathie. : I believe that you will like "The Jazz Singer." Aside from the fact that most people lack sales resistance where Al Jolson is concerned, the story is dramatically interesting and while Al is not the best shadow actor in the world, he gives a good per- formance, % "Dressed to Kill" offers perfect story construction, splendid acting and fast action. It is a tale of the underworld from the inside of a gangster's lair. You'll like it. Edmund Lowe, Mary Astor and Ben Bard are the principals. Of the three pictures that are scheduled for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, which are "The Heart of a Follies Girl," "Something Always Hap- pens," and "Thanks for the Buggy Ride" in the order named, the last two are the most outstanding, All are good entertainment. "Thanks for the Buggy Ride" is by Universal. It is a comedy with an original idea and presents Laura LaPlante at her best. "Something Always Happens" is a splendid melo- dramatic farce in which Esther Ralston gets a decided surprise. Neil Hamilton and Sojin originate the surprise. Community House Presents "Fourflusher" Tuesday The two films selected by Burton -| H. Atwood, Jr., for showing on Tues- day and Friday of next week at Com- munity House are "The Fourflusher" and "Let 'er Go Gallagher." "The Fourflusher" offers the in- definable charm of youth in a story that is delightful. It is, briefly, about a smart-aleck in business. George Lewis and the Collegian gang with Marion Nixon playing the feminine lead. Junior Coghlan, Harrison Ford, Elinor Fair and Ivan Lebedeff are the principals in the cast of "Let 'er Go Gallagher." Tt is said to be Junior's best work. : COMMUNITY HOUSE Fri, May 4 Tues, May 8 Geo. Lewis W. C. Fields Marion Nixon Chester Conklin "The "Two Flaming Fourflusher" Youths" 'Will Rogers "In Holland"
