‘JOURNEY’S END’ IS GREAT PICTURE Director and Actors Did Not Go Wrong When They Made a Movie Out of Sherriff’s Fine War Play. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN WHEN I tell you that “Journey's End” on the screen is as fine drama as it was on the stage I niean every word of it. I had the feeling when the movies tackled “Journey’s End” they would so mess up the job that “Journey” would not be recognized on the screen. Am ready to tell you that the movie handling of “Journey’s End” is so far the most intelligent and effective transferring of a stage play into a talking movie. „ In the first place, James Whale, the director, did not attempt to rewrite this very fine piece of dramatic writing.

The movie version follows the stage play nearly word for word, and the characters are played as honestly and as splendidly as they were on the stage. And thank good-

ness that the director did not run a bunch of women into this story. There never was a woman in “Journey’s End” on the stage and the director wisely has kept women out of the movie version. I am going to demand in the future that when stage plays go on the screen that they reflect the text and

David Manners

atmosphere of the play. I think that the screen is important enough to give us “Journey’s End” as written by R. C. Sherriff and not a warmed over version by a director. And because the director has given us “Journey’s End” as written, that is one of the chief reasons that this play in movie form is so tremendously great. Am forced to admit that “Journey’s End” gave me more complete satisfaction of any stage play that has been brought to the screen. This picture brings the screen several years nearer the realization of all those that love movies, that the talking screen at last can truthfully reflect great dramatic writings. If I had a movie hall of fame, right now I would move in “Journey’s End,” and place it to the left side of “Birth of a Nation.” On its other side I would place “All Quiet on the Western Front.” Am fully convinced that if every man, woman and child would see “Journey’s End,” in movie form, there could be no more war. This picture and “All Quiet” certainly robs var of all of its glamor and gives us the very hell of the whole bad business. In “Journey’s End” we see mostly t! e older men getting their death summons. In “All Quiet” it is the youngsters who go west. Colin Clive, an English actor, was brought over here, to play the role of Captain Stanhope in the movie version. He created the role in London. I have seen three Stanhope’s on the stage and Clive is more powerful and more humanly effective than any of the three. Here is big acting, cruel, harsh, human, beautiful and dreadful. Clive is magnificent in the letter scene with Lieutenant Raleigh and marvelous when he and Raleigh break after the death of the men in the raiding party. Here is big drama and as legitimately put over as if it were on the stage. I am completely satisfied with the work of David Manners as Second Lieutenant Raleigh. He does not make Raleigh a “sap” or an over energetic youth, but has drawn a human character —that of a normal boy getting his first taste of war and death. The cast is so important I give it to you as follows: CDt. Stanhope -Colin Clive Ist Lieut. Osborne lan Maciaren 2nd Lieut. Raleigh David Manners 2nd Lieut. Hibbert Anthony Bushell 2nd Lieut. Trotter Bitty Bevan Private Mason Charles Gerrard Capt. Hardy Robert A Dair SersenntlMalor Thomas Whiteiev Colonel ...Jack Pitcairn German Boy Warn* Klmget Here is big drama—war as it- is. Photography and direction are as fine as the play itself. Wouldn't be surprised that you will get ylfcr biggest dramatic thrill

from a movie when you see “Journey’s End.” Now at the Circle. # # it AGAIN RAMON NOVARRO SINGS OF LOVE AND SUCH Since the talkies Roman Novarro has distinguished himself as a singer, and “In Gay Madrid,” as in “Devil May Care,” you again heir his voice as he sings of love and other things. Asa student, Ramon is apart from the rest, because of his affair with a woman of disreputable character. Falling in love

with a girl, played by Dorothy Jordan, he has a difficult time to make her realize his love, because of this affair. In fact, she does not surrender with her heart until after he is wounded in a duel fought with her brother. Both Miss Jordan and Ramon give performances as might be expected from them. The best piece of

acting is contributed by Meryl Mercer, who, like a diamond in a rather dull setting, brightens up the picture with her sparkling personality and humorous remarks. Although “In Gay Madrid” is pleasing enough entertainment, it dees not rank with “Devil May Care," as far as romantic and stirring adventure are concerned. The songs are all pleasant to the ear, but not one is what I would call an outstanding hit. Other features on the program are Laurel and Hardy in “Hay Wire,” and Newsreel. Now at the Palace. (By Connell Turpen.) tt • u a NOT SO GOOD AND NOT SO BAD IS THIS After seeing “The Golden Calf ” my verdict is not so good and not so' bad. That makes a less than a fair picture. Don't know what the director attempted to put over, farce, comedy

or musical comedy. There is a dash of about everything in this one. They let El Brendel get just as suggestive as they dare. Brendel spends most of his time in this movie measuring women’s legs. The legs in this case belong to models, who want to pose for an artist. The artist is played by Jack Mulhall. Jack wants the perfect pair of legs on a model and

' ' '*a

Marjorie White

so he advertises and legs of all shapes and sizes arrive. The movie director must have been in his glory when he was photographing those legs. If this ts comedy, I am ready to go back to reading the Alger books. It wasn't necessary for Jack to go outside of his studio to get the perfect pair, because his secretary, played Ly Sue Carol, had the perfect pair. She was old fashioned and wore long skirts, so the world didn't know what she was hiding until she became a modem gal.

wanted to be rather naughty but instead they were just rather silly. Be your own judge of “The Golden Calf.” I have my own idea. Now at the Apollo. # * a NANCY CARROLL TURNS TO DRAMA Unlike the previous musical productions, in Which Nancy Carroll has been cast, “The Devil’s Holiday” brings to us a drama of life. Here Nancy has a chance to show us just how much dramatic ability she has, and also gives us a fair idea of what we can expect from her as time goes on and she becomes more experienced as an actor. It is my opinion that this young lady has a great future ahead of her. You will find

EUROPE PAINTS U. S. TARIFF AS TRADEMENACE British Political Leaders Fear Other Nations May Raise Barriers. BY KEITH JONES United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, June 16.—Provisions of the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill are feared in Great Britain more for the possibility that they will lead to retaliatory measures in other nations affecting Britain’s exports than for any possible diminution of British exports to the United States. Political quarters feared other nations, especially in Europe, might be prompted to raise similar tariff, barriers, which would have damaging effect on British exports to countries other than the United States. It is most unlikely there will be retaliatory measures or even formal protests against its provisions affecting Great Britain during the duration of Prime Minister J. Ramsay MacDonald’s labor government, but the high tariff walls with which America is surrounding herself are expected to strengthen the conservatives’ contentions for an extension of the so-called safeguarding duties, which are tantamount to protective tariffs. The conservatives, it is believed, will argue that now it is necessary to raise tariff barriers for Great Britain to protect the numerous industries which are suffering from declines. Assailed in France By United Press PARIS, June 16.—Passage of the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill was viewed here today as a result of domestic overproduction unattended by a proportionate increase in the earning power of the American people. Le Temps, semi-official organ, declared the bill was “the most resolute protectionist move the United States ever has known, and marks a turning point in the economic policy of the American people.” The French press generally agreed that it was dangerous for a creditor nation like the United States to close its doors to the products of debtor nations by raising tariff walls. Alarm in Germany Bu United Press BERLIN, June 16.—The news of the passage of the American tariff bill was received here with conflicting sentiments of alarm and passive interest. The majority of German economic observers declared the bill would prove a drawback to international trade. They were joined by many industrialists yho complained that the new tariffs would make impossible German exports to the United States. good performances. Direction is splendid, coming from the wellknown director Edmund Goulding, who gave us “The Trespasser.” “The Devil’s Holiday” is worth while seeing because of these two things, good direction and a well balanced performance from each member of the cast. See it. The stage presentaotion “Magic Melodies” brings to the Indiana Helen Lewis and her girl band, band. These girls play some mighty sweet music, and their first appearance on the stage is rather a novel feat, which falls under the art of magic. Nice entertainment. “Echoes of the Bayou,” an overture conducted by Ed Resener, which brings the southland into the orchestra pit, Dessa Byrd at the organ and Newsreal complete the Now showing at the Indiana.

her somewhat different in this role cf a little gold-dig-ger, who plays with fire, when she plays with love, but the change is all for the good. Philip Holmes, who takes honors with Nancy for a good performance, is cast as the boy from the wheat country, whom she marries out of revenge, because his brother had insult-

HELENE WILL REJOSNGAROL Early Reconciliation Is Expected in Rumania. By United Press BUCHAREST, June 16.—Early announcement of a reconciliation between King Carol II of Rumania and his wife, Princess Helene, is regarded as likely here. The princess’ consent to take back the husband who deserted her for Mme. Magda Lupescu was seen by leading Rumanian politicians as highly desirable for the success of Carol’s regime, and it was considered probable that the negotiations now directed by Queen Marie would have favorable results. Reports that Mme. Lupescu vfes on her way to Bucharest from France apparently were unfounded. Information was received from well informed quarters that the report of her intended arrival here was political gossip designed to harm Carol. Mme. Lupescu was reported from London due here on the Oriental Express Sunday night, but she failed to arrive. OLD SUIT TO BE TRIED Trial of the seventeen-year-old suit of the Bedford Stone and Construction Company against the Washington Realty Company, In which $70,000 damages is asked, is probable within a week, it was indicated today following submission of briefs by attorneys Saturday to Benjamin F. Carr, Delphi, special judge in Marion superior court four. In the suit, the Bedford company claims the realty company, builders of the Washington hotel, failed to pay the contract price for the construction of the hotel.

GOVERNORS TO I HOLD MEETING Thirty Executives to Discuss State Problems. By Times Special SALT LAKE CITY, June 16 —Salt Lake City will be the scene of one of the nation’s most important conventions of the year when Governors' from thirty states will meet there June 30 for the twenty-second annual national conference of governors. The state chief executives will seek solutions of some of the country’s outstanding current problems, chief of which will be unemployment, taxation of various forms, old age pensions, and matters concerning public lands, the latter of primary importance to those states of the west and the southwest. Not all of the conference will be devoted to formarbusiness sessions, however. At the conclusion of the meetings in Salt Lake City, the Governors will recess, and travel to Zion national park on a special Union Pacific train. There, on July 4, they will formally dedicate the famous Zion-Mt. Carmel highway tunnel. On July 4 the Governors will proceed through this tunnel and thence south to Grand Canyon national park, and in the Union Pacific Grand Canyon lodge on its north rim they will hold the last formal session of the conference, and adjournment will be taken. This year’s * session will be the biggest meeting of its kind ever held in the United States. A North Carolina lawyer has invented a photograph printing machine which he claims will provide 1,000 prints an hour.
