HAINES MAKES GOOD IN HIS NEW COMEDY 'Just a Gigolo’ Gives Bill a Chance to Show That He Can Really Act Instead of Trying to Be Cute. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN AM mighty glad to tell you that a change for the better has come over William Haines. Maybe he really is growing up and throwing away some of his allegedly "cute” mannerisms which have ruined most of his pictures for me. You will discover an acting William Haines in “Just A Gigolo,” instead of a rather cheap cutuo. I am glad to tell you that. Probably wrong directors as well as ill mannered stories have been responsible for my dislike for Haines but much of it has been made up by his really excellent work in his latest talker. The story is smartly modern.
It concerns a young man, Lord Robert Brummell who became a hired dancing partner for discontented young women and old mammas who want to act modern when
they should be home knitting, that is, if any women now knit. Lord Brummell takes an assumed name and becomes a gigolo to Roxana Hartley, a girl of position to whom Rob e r t’s uncle insists he marries. Robert bargains with his uncle that if Roxana would not give herself to him in thirty days he would marry her.
William Haines
Uncle brands the whole scheme as “most disgusting,” but agrees because he knows the true character of the girl. Roxana discovers the real identity of her gigolo and she teaches the young man a splendid lesson. The entire story is smart, clever and very modern. In addition to the work of Haines, which is splendid, I believe that you are going to enjoy the efficient work of Irene Purcell as Roxana. Here is a woman of fine acting ability. She knows how to talk, walk and use her hands. She is always the competent actress. She has a name in her own right on the stage and her first picture proves that she is a movie find. C. Aubrey Smith is cast as Lord George Hampton. Here is more fine work. On the bill is a Mickey Mouse comedy. And it is a mighty good one. Now at the Palace. a a a NOW WE HAVE “THE VICE SQUAD” The atmosphere of “The Vice Squad” is a sort of a twin brother to the gang stories we have had. Now do not misunderstand me, “The Vice Squad” is not a gang story. It concerns the efforts of police in a large city to “frame" the
evidence on girls who are supposed to be easy livers. That is done through a vice squad through the use of a “stool pigeon” who frames the girls. The dramatic climax comes when an innocent girl is framed, a girl who nursed back to health the stool pigeon, not knowing who he was. Paul Lukas, with
- • '
Charlie Hill
a foreign accent which is not so clear and understanding at times, is the stool pigeon. On the whole the work is all right, although it is a most unpleasant role. It rather has an unpleasant smell at times.* It is far from being a heman role, but a sympathetic ending turns the stcol pigeon into a real man when he exposes the men and the system used by the vice squad in this story. Kay Francis is in the cast although she hasn’t much to do. The movie has been well photographed and directed but the story is not so please nt. *. This week the Indiana is having its fourth anniversary and they are even giving away a slice of birthday cake. Brooke Johns is featuring Charlie Hill. I missed Hill because T was a little late for the stage show. I will blame the most welcomed rain of yesterday for that. The stage show has the dancing sendees of two girls who dance up and down a long flight of stairs. Here is real work, splendidly done. Has a right to stop the show. From a scenic standpoint, it is a heavy show and the costumes are good. Now at the Indiana. a a a BILLIE DOVE IS FEATURED AT CIRCLE The theme of “The Lady Who Dared,” is not new. I suppose that it was made because a beautiful wife of an attache at a legation in a foreign country as compromised by a band of black mailers and dope smugglers. Billie Dove is the woman who is compromised and then dares to trap her defamers. Conway Tearle (I haven’t seen him for a long time) does the compromising. Here is another unpleasant role that has little appeal until he turns regular and faces a long prison term when he defends the honor ind the name of the woman he has so badly betrayed. The tnuth is the theme appealed -
On the Air There have been so many requests for Walter D. Hickman of The Times to interview Freddie Sherman of the Arthur Casey company at English’s that Sherman has consented. Hickman will interview the young actor over WKBF at 12:35 p. m. Tuesday. Doss a juvenile get peeved when the leading man does all the love making on the stage? We will find out.
to me as a little ancient and a little out of date. There is no really great acting present although Tearle does very well with a cad role. Miss Dove wears some beautiful gowns and that is about all that I can say for her. But of course be your own judge. Now at the Circle. “Daddy Long Legs,” is now in its third week at the Apollo. That is something big this time of the year. Other theaters offer: “The Blue Ghost,” at English’s, Jean Darling at the Lyric, “Front Page,” at the Ohio, and, burlesque at the Mutual.
About This Depression That’s a question everybody asks and for which there is no positive answer. How long do business depressions last on the average? How often do they occur? How many times has the United States had a depression? Are they all alike? In what do they differ? What are t.ieir causes? What remedies have been applied?

By BEN STERN AFTER maneuvering for years to obtain freedom from prison, D. C, Stephenson finally has put the supreme court ‘‘on the spot.” In a petition for a writ of habeas corpus (his second) filed in the La Porte superior court, the ex-klan dragon sets out that the delay in the disposition of his appeal by the high court is ‘‘unconstitutional and unreasonable.” Study of opinions of the court over an almost six-year period gives the picture of Judges David Myers, Julius C. Travis and a former justice, Benjamin Willoughby, on one side, and Clarence Martin and a former member, Willard B. Gemmill on the other. Judge Myers dominated the trio which composed the majority. “Martin and Gemmill dissent” was a familiar notation on opinions. a a a When the Democrats swept into power last year it was hoped by liberal citizens that Walter Treanor and Curtis Roll would line up with Martin and form anew majority. But from all indications Myers is still in the saddle. Naturally the new jurists needed

WHIPPLE I nitrd Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 22.—Tired and travel worn, and somewhat resentful at public criticism of their actions in France, nineteen American mayors arrived in New York today aboard the lie de France after one of the most strenuous junkets of modern times. In the course of five weeks, these mayors and their wives, representing every quarter of the United Stales, have traveled b.uoj mues. eaten sixty-six formal dinners, listened to 128 speeches consuming in all thirty-four hours, and explored fourteen French cities. Thev have been toasted in everything from the oldest of port wines to the driest of champagnes, and to most of them today the question of prohibition holds an academic interest. The group left New York May IS on the lie de France and returned on the same ship. Those who returned today were: Mavor and Mrs. Walter E. Batetrson. Harttord. Conn.; Mavor J. Fulmer Bright. Richmond. Va.; Mayor and Mrs. William F. Boening. Baltimore: Mayor and Mrs G. W Coan Jr.. Winston-Salem: Mayor Frederick W. Donnelly. Trenton. N. J. : Mayor and Mrs. A. P. x Gray. Pasco. Wash.* Mayor and Mrs. Daniel W. Hoan. Milwaukee: Mayor James L. Key. Atlanta; Mayor and Mrs. Franklin D. Lane. Poenix. Ariz.; Mayor and Mrs. R. b Marvin. Syracuse. N. Y.; Mayor and Mrs. Richard B. Metcalffe. Omaha: Mayor and Mrs. Victor J. Miller. St. Louis. Mo.; Mr. and Mrs. E. Kirk McKinney, representing Indianapolis; Judge and Mrs. Frank M. Padden. representing Chicago; James P. Pope, Boise. Id.; Mayor and Mrs. John C. Porter. Los Angeles; Mayor and Mrs. Bryce B Smith. Kansas City; Congress-man-Elect and Mrs. R. E. Thomson. El Paso, and Mayor and Mrs. T. Semmea Walmsley, New Orleans. Os the group, only one mayor remained a teetotaler throughout the trip. He was Mayor'Porter of Los Angeles, who declared at the outset that the Constitution of the United States would follow* him wherever he went. Most of them, interviewed today, expressed dissatisfaction with prohibition. “I never saw the slightest drunkenness in France,” Mayor Bright said. Mayor Donnelly said that “I am wet, always have been wet and I don't care who knows it.’’ POISON DOSE IS FATAL' George Powers Kills Self; Domestic Difficulties Blamed. George Powers, 26, of 1122 West New York street, walked into the city hospital Friday, announced that he had taken poison, and showed some tablets to internes. He died Saturday night.
