GRAIN FUTURES UP UN STRONG FOREIGN NEWS French Acceptance of War Debt Plans Bullish in Effect. BY ELMER C. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 7.—Wheat prices scored a major fractional rise on the Board of Trade at the start today under the stimulating effect of the acceptance of the Hoover moratorium plan by France. Overnight buying orders and short covering ran the market up sharply, but at the top selling appeared and the advance was halted. Strength at Liverpool was a factor, a better demand and the improved world financial situation affecting the English market. Corn gained with wheat, but there was selling on the rise. Oats were firm with the major grains. At the opening wheat was % cent to % cent higher, corn was % cent to % cent up and oats weVe unchanged to % cent higher. Provisions were steady. Liverpool Advances Liverpool was higher than expected and advanced % cent by mid-afternoon. Sentiment was somewhat more mixed after the close Monday. The surprisingly small hedging pressure is having some effect, although a department of agriculture report that the northern hemisphere, exclusive of Russia and China, would produce a 3,081,000,000-bushel crop as compared with 2,870,000,000 bushels last year fell flat. Nor did the report that the farm board had no intention of selling its grain at the prevailing prices stimulate trade. Arrival of 8,638 cars of new wheat Monday was the largest single day’s receipts ever known. July Com Congested Congestion is becoming more apparent in July corn and the nearby month seems to be controlled by a score of leading local professionals. The failure of the country to sell cash corn, despite the large premium over September, is attracting considerable attention. Crop prospects look excellent. The weather was clear and cool last night. Scattered liquidation was on in oats Monday, but there was buying on resting orders, apparently for investment. Chicago Grain Range —July 7 WHEAT— prey. „ , High. Low. 11:00 close.

THERE IS NIFTY FUN NOW AT ENGLISH’S Smart, Wise-Cracking Lines and Situations Make ‘The Bachelor Father’ a Real Comedy Treat. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN t'VER hear of a bachelor father wjth three children to his credit or . discredit? Well you hear a whole lot of one member of the tribe by the name of Sir Basil Winterton, V. C. K. C. 8., K. C. G. M., in ‘‘The Bachelor Father, a comedy <n three acts and seven scenes. ” was Probably because Sir Basil was a knight that he didn’t land in rne noosgow for his philanderings many years before the play starts. We 2*** Sir Basil (Will Lloyd) getting along in life with his three fatherless children just getting of age or some years over that.

The three children all had different mothers, but their father was the same. It may sound like scandal, but you will recall that the late

David Belasco produced this naughty nifty and nearly made a gem of it. One of the “accidental” children is Geoffrey Trent, played nicely by Freddie Sherman. Another is Maria Cred ar o (played charmingly in words and song by Joan Ruth, anew member of the company). The third is Antoinette Flagg, played in

Frances Dale

the best possible manner by Frances Dale. It is the smartest role she has had this season and as the wise cracking modern youngster of New York, she just about runs away with the honors. But of course, the acting of Will Loyd as Sir Basil is so strenuously fine that he deserves the right to be featured in it. The fun really begins when Sir Basil commands his solicitor (played nicely by Donald Woods) to round up his three children whom he has never seen from the four corners of the earth and bring them to his English estate. Sir Basil has a great first scene with his three “accidental” children, but the Flagg girl conquers his hard heart. The story gets as human as it gets wild at times. Wild in conversation only. The Casey company has done marvelously with the stage sets. In fact, it is as good as I would expect it to be if it visited us in the regular road season at $3 a seat. You know what an undertaking it was to build this show because the first act has four complete sets and they have been wonderfully created. There is loads of nifty fun waiting for you at English’s this week, where “The Bachelor Father” is on view. tt tt B A PERSONALITY AND A PHOTOPLAY The flesh and blood personality we are concerned with on this bill is Rosetta Duncan, noted for being the rowdy Topsy in “Topsy and Eva,” on the stage. The movie we are concerned with is Lew Ayres in “Up for Murder.” This movie has a newspaper background and it reflects the realistic

side of the show about as much as an elephant resembles a flea in size. It is just a yarn about a good looking lad (Lew Ayres) who becomes a cub reporter on a large paper and falls desperately in love with the society editor. The poor cub thinks she is as pure as driven snow and when he discovers that his boss has a key to the gi r l’s apartment,

§!%• : -.':-

Rosetta Duncan

the young cub becomes pugilistic and swats his boss on the bean. Meaning that he knocks his boss senseless, so senseless in fact that the boss dies. Then a lot of sob stuff with the purification of the society v/riter so effective that we have a silly and a happy ending. Regardless of how weak and sobsister this story is, it has been well acted and directed. It will probably hold your interest, but it is not realism. Just a lurid story much better acted, and directed than the story merits. I have the greatest respect and admiration for the artistry of Rosetta Duncan. She is the blackface of that once well known team of the Duncan Sisters, who will always be remembered as “Topsy and Evad’ As Rosetta says this season—- “ Here Topsy is again but without Eva. She married a big Swede.” This is the first time that Rosetta has been here since her sister Vivian married and invited the stork. Rosetta makes a nifty modern appearance and after a few preliminary re marks made to melody, she goes into her kid toothache number. Here is a gem of juvenile imitation done in modern language. While Bob Hamill plays the piano, Rosetta is putting on blackface and she appears as Topsy. Topsy is still wild and as she says “Ise hate everybody and I wish the world had more people in it so Ise could hate more people.” Her greatest number is the way Topsy sings “Sitting’ on the Curbstone Blues.” Here is a blues classic j as delivered by Miss Duncan. And ! her encore number done in German is a joy. Here is a very great woman wh* never loses her class and character. Earl S. Dewey with the aid of four women attempts to put sex appeal and comedy in a vaudeville skit. The dancing of the large j woman is not art, but it gets the laughs. Haig, Haig and Haig are three j children who try to act adult when they should be natural. The efforts of the oldest boy to get applause for his sister and brother is in poor taste. I know that I was the mi- I nority when I sr.w them because the audience liked them. Joe Christy has strengthened his idea of eccentric comedy. He has! the aid of a young woman who is{ a foil for his comedy as well as his! musical outbreaks. South and Jacobs have poor ma-! terial and they get attention when ; they become musical. The Chevalier Brothers are good acrobats. I Their head and foot balancing work is splendid. Now at the Lyric. Other theaters today offer: “A j Free Soul” at the Palace, “Smart j Money” at the Apollo, “White; Shoulders” at the Indiana, “Big | Business Girl” at the Circle, double j movie bill at the Ohio, and bur-1 lesque at the Mutb&L
