Pearl Dolores Costello in "College Widow" at Community House Dolores Costello will be seen in the Warner Bros. production, "The College Widow," at the Community House next Tuesday night, August 7. This is a brilliant revival of George Ade's stage play and includes in its cast William Collier, Jr., Anders Randolf, Douglas Gerrard, Charles Hill Mailes, Robert Ryan, Big Boy Williams, Grace Gor- don, and others. Archie L. Mayo di- rected. "The College Widow," is a play of college life and tells the story of the daughter of a college president, who revived the fortunes of the school and secured her father's insecure job by recruiting a winning football team by feminine wiles. It is big, and funny, and human, and has been called "the finest football story ever filmed." The last episode of "Trail of the Tiger" will also be shown at the Com- munity House Tuesday. "A bright, fast-moving comedy and Richard's best in months," is one critic's comment on "Easy Come, Easy Go," a picture in which Richard Dix plays the part of an innocent partner of a crook. The picture is booked for the Community House next Friday, August 10. Dix as a debonair young bankrupt is innocently taken in by a gentleman crook. He has more grief than the Chicago police trying to square himself with the one-and-only, whose father the bandit has robbed. The support of Nancy Carroll and Charles Sellon is excellent. The Community House also an- nounces a Pathe review and an Aesop Fable picture, "Barnyard Lodge," for next Friday.
