! john is a magician IN THIS NEW MOVIE Gilbert Has Not So Much Love Making to Do in “The Phanton of Paris,” Which Is Due at Palace Saturday. “'T'HE PHANTOM OF PARIS." which will head the bill at the Palace A starting Saturday, finds John Gilbert, thp screen's most perfect lover, in a totally new type of role Not only does Gilbert play the part of a magician but, by a trick make-up, also slfps into the part of a marquis, an entirely different character. suave, cold blooded and ruthless-He-returns to his real self at the end of the picture, a trick of acting j that calls forth the utmost talents of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer star. "The Phantom of Paris" is the essence of newness, in plot, in splendor of settings and gowns and in filming. The plot brings out an entirely i new and involved intriguing situa-y .

tion; ardent love sets a seemingly insurmountable impasse, cold-blood-ed murder, quick turns and unusual developments. The settings are of tremendous magnitude. A huge French theater where the magician Cheri-Bibi holds the audience spellbound with his unfathomable tricks; a ballroom where the elite of France dance to sparkling music that hides the intrigue going on; the luxurious drawing rooms, library, dining salon, formal gardens and lounging rooms of a villa of the nobility; the chilly vastness of a French prison where Bihi executes one of the greatest prison breaks ever screened, are all moulded into a picture of swiftness. The supporting cast of Gilbert’s new production includes Leila Hymas, Lewis Stone, Jean Hersholt, C. Aubi-ey Smith, Natalie Moorehead, lan Keith and Alfred Hickman. Hal Roach’s “Gang Kids,’’ in their newest all-talking comedy, "Big Ears,” heads the program of short subjects. Also on the bill is a James Fitzpatrick Traveltalk, "Madeira," and the latest news happenings as pictured in the Hearst Metrotone News. u Indianapolis theaters today offei* Nancy Carroll in “Personal Maid” at the Indiana, Constance Bennett in "The Common Law” at the Circle, "This Modern Age" at the Palace, “Merely Mary Ann" at the Apollo, “Young As You Feel" at the Terminal, Guy Bates Post in “The Play’s the Thing” at English's, “An American Tragedy" at the Ohio, and burlesque at the Mutual and the Colonial.

BANDITS WOUND STOREOWNER Blaze Away as Pharmacist Reaches for Gun. George Machoff's ribs were excellent armor Thursday night when a Negro bandit opened fire as Machoff reached for his own gun to prevent robbery of almost S4OO from his pharmacy at 1442 North Senate avenue. Two young Negroes entered the store and pointed a gun at Machoff. He reached for an automatic pistol beneath the counter, and a slug from one bandit’s gun tore through his chest, was deflected by a rib, and came out his back. Physicians say he will recover. As J. L. Fry, 511 North Keystone avenue, got into his car at Alabama and St. Clair streets Thursday

He walked a mile to a phone and notified deputy sheriffs. The Blue Nile in Africa was so called from the dark color of its silt-laden waters.
