COMING SOON Wings, Cameraman, Two Lovers. Reviews | At the North "Caught in the Fog" to Be at Varsity Next Week The Varsity theater in Evanston continues its showing of sound pic- tures. "The Tempest," with John Bar- rymore and Camilla Horn, is the pres- ent attraction. This picture, which movie critics and movie magazines have praised as one of the best this year, is built around a poor Russian peasant and a haughty princess. The action, of which there is aplenty, covers the last days of the czar's re- gime, the war, and the Red rebellion. Mr. Barrymore does not disappoint us in the frequent views of his profile. Miss Horn, the German girl who was brought to Hollywood after her ap- pearance in "Faust" and "Metropolis," is lovely to look at and a splendid actress. "Caught in the Fog," with Conrad Nagel and May McAvoy is the Varsity picture for next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. The film is a comedy- mystery affair. Action takes place on a houseboat, unoccupied until various parties appear in quest of jewels known to repose in the vessel's safe. Mas- querading under false identities, the visitors have a lot of excitement. Miss McAvoy and Mr. Nagel make an at- tractive team. The supporting roles are satisfactorily played. A new play, "Dyed in the Wool," which tells of Reno and the divorce courts, is now being cast by Al Woods for a Broadway premiere. BALABAN Z3 KATZ ORSHORE HOWARD AVE."

M. GRANGE AT NORSHORE Famous Football Star to Appear in Person; Al Morey to Be Guest Conductor Next Week "Red" Grange, famous "77" of the University of Illinois football team of former years, will be the chief attrac- tion in the stage show at the Norshore next week. The show has been ap- propriately called, "Come On, Red." Al Morey, guest conductor, will swing the baton for the Jazz Collegians. The screen offering for the week will be "Moran of the Marines," in which Ruth Elder, famous aviatrix, is co-starred with Richard Dix. Miss Elder is seen as a general's daughter who falls in love with a youth. The youth joins the marines in order that he may get to China, where she has told him she is going. Richard Dix is the youth and plays the part of Michael Moran. He has led the general's daughter to believe that he has an important position with a railroad. Over in China she learns of his deception and is the cause of his being court-martialed. He saves her from Chinese bandits and performs other heroic achievements, after which she kisses him right in front of God and everybody. LUPE VELEZ TO SING Lupe Velez will sing seven songs in the new D. W. Griffith sound picture, "Where Is the Song of Songs for Me? "Miss Velez was singing and danc- ing in the Mexico City musical com- edy, "Ra-ta-plan," when American mo- tion picture interests discovered her. With the plot laid in a toy shop some two hundred years ago, "Dream House" is nearly completed. Nancy Drexel, David Rollins, William V. Mong and Ralph Fitzsimmons are members of the cast. Bebe Daniels, Neil Hamilton on Screen at Community House Bebe Daniels and Neil Hamilton are the principal actors in "Hot News," motion picture coming to the Commu- nity House in Winnetka next Tuesday night. For those who like thrills this film is highly recommended. Bebe and Neil play hide and seek around the spike bonnet of the Statue of Liberty. Bebe is at her best, making the im- possible seem easy of accomplish- ment. The story is of the motion pic- ture news reel. It sets a fast pace at the start and keeps it up to the end. The Community House has an- nounced "Jazz Mad" as its picture for next Friday, November 16. The story is of Franz Hausmann, a musical com- poser, who fails to sell his symphony, for which he had come to the United States from Germany. When he has descended to playing in a comedy jazz orchestra to earn a living, his daugh- ter arranges to have his composition played by one of New York's famous orchestras. This revives his spirit and helps win back his former prestige as well as gaining his daughter's happi: ness. Jean Hersholt as Franz Hausmann gives what has been called by some critics the greatest characterization of his career. He plays the part with sympathy and feeling and just the right amount of restraint. Marion Nixon as Elsa, his daughter, gives an admirable performance. Myrna Loy will play one of the fea- tured roles in the first vitaphone ope- retta, "The Desert Song." The leading roles played by Carlotta King, John Boles and Louise Fazenda. THEATRE TICKETS!
