BY lOAN SAVOY. XF.A Service Writer. YOU probably have noticed thct evening gowns are getting a lot of character in them. Some of the new ones, made of triple sheers and other fabrics that tailor well, come with the highback and sports-like front that ghe them elegant sophistication. For when a party frock dares streamline sports cut. it takes on a nonchalance that is irresistible. White leads all colors in summer evening dresses. Os course, it typifies moonlight on evening seas and PHI MU ALUMS AH IS ANNUAL ELECTION Miss Martha Landis is president of the Phi Mu Alumnae Club for the coming year.

other romantic things which summer should bring into a girl’s life. This white gown is the kind to give you distinction and make you nuite the cynosure of masculine eyes. It is ice blue silk jersey, that clingy new stuff that gives you the slinky, elegant look you all like. B B B A UNIQUE cut makes a cape scarf button on just like part of the dress itself, as you well may wear it when you want covered arms. The dress itself has a lovely neckline. a half cowl that runs up to one shoulder, while an inch-wide strap goes over the other shoulder. The back of the neckline is cut the same way, one-sided, onestrapped. and very, very suave and chic. The graduated glass buttons, circled with rhinestones, do double duty. They actually fasten the dress and at the same time are immensely decorative. The biggest button is placed just below the high waistline and it is to the second sized button that the cape fastens one end and to the littlest button at the top that the ■ other end of the cape attaches.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

.‘SYMPHONY’ MOVIE IS A HUMAN STORY Joan Crawford and Robert Montgomery Do Some Smart Love-Making in ‘Letty Lynton' at the Palace. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN SOMETIMES the screen reflects the simple story of the struggle of a family to get on In life. Such a story is Fannie Hurst s "Symphony of Six Million.” in which the struggle of Klauber, a Jewish family in the Ghetto of New York. At all times it is human and consistently normal at all times. I had the feeling that I was at the supper table in the Klauber small east side apartment when Papa and Mama Klauber continued their word battle which started years ago. Both love each other dearly, but they scrap and scrap all the time, neither one meaning a thing they say.

I am going to give the acting honors not to the featured players. Ricardo Cortez as the young doctor, and Irene Dunne as Jessica, the crippled girl, but to Anna Apel as Mrs. Klauber. and Gregory Ratoff as Papa Klauber. Here is warm, human acting and I really felt that I had known the Klaubers for

years. These two will be in my list of the best performances of the year. In giving these two players first place, it does not mean that Ricardo Cortez is not satis actory. The truth is. Cortez is better than I ever have seen him in my life. He is doing natural acting this time. The story

loes not give Miss Dunne so much to do. but in* every scene she does faithful and sympathetic work. The story concerns Flex Klauber iCortez', who becomes famous on the east side as a doctor and surgeon at a clinic for the very poor people. There he is happy and great. Then his mother, father, brother and sister start a conspiracy to get him to move uptown and get big money from society women and others. He dees and loses his happiness. Fame and fortune comes to him, but he is unable to successfully opeYate on his own father. His million dollar hands have become as putty. Then back to the Ghetto and happiness, as well as great artistry for the doctor. It is a beautiful and normal story of how one family tried to climb. I do not hestiate to say that “Symphony* of Six Million” is my favorite movie this week because of its story, its human acting, its intelligent direction and fine photography. Now at the Indiana. an n MISS CRAWFORD HANDLES POISON THIS TIME After seeing Joan Crawford in "Letty Lynton." I am convinced that she is developing along dramatic | lines as w ell as in smart and sophis- ; ticated parts. Have had a feeling in the past that Miss Craw-ford was trying to ape

Greta Garbo, but in "Letty Lynton” I had the feeling that she had about forgotten about Garbo. When you first meet Letty Lyton (Miss Crawfordt she is a high strung and 'rich society girl who had become the mistress of Emile Renaul 'ugly but perfectly played [by Nils Asther) 1 and on becoming

fed up, tried to escape from her keeßer. She manages to get on a steamer with her faithful maid (handsomely played in a comedy way by Louise Closer Hale) to sail

for New York. On the boat she starts a flirtation with the rich and very good looking Jerry Darrow (played by Robert Montgomery in his best Romeo manner.) And this flirting becomes so serious that they agree to become man and wife. Os course, Jerry thought his Letty was an angel and Letty didn’t tell. She didn't think her past would catch up with her but the past, meaning Renaul. was on the dock w-aiting for her. He had used an airplane from South America or wherever it was. Renaul becomes dangerous and Letty goes to his hotel to plead for her release. When he acts like a beast, Letty pours some poison in a glass of champagne while her past wasn't looking. But the past drinks the poison and so ends the past. What about Letty? Must let you see the picture. It sure is a wild ending and anew twist to the badgood gals we have in our movie stories nowadays. Along with the acting honors obtained by Miss Crawford are two others who deserve equal credit. They are Miss Hale as the maid and May Robson as the cruel and strong headed mother of Letty. I have only two favorite movies this week and "Letty” is the second one. Now at the Palace. • MM CONCERNING A VERY OLD STORY I am beginning to believe more strongly than ever that it is dangerous and mostly always fatal to modernize a very old story. I know that "Oliver Twist” just can't be modernized and I am convinced after seeing "Lena Rivers” that it was fatal W „ to do it. When Y**.,/ Lena was a girl I Y way back many .. ,Nffyears, there was a || different code of morals than we have now or seem Wf to have. When we Iff put that code of x other days in an WAutomobile and jTS*: J the modern race gjjjak 1 track it is not conwincing. Lena was i sensation in her Mercer day and she had millions of readers. In modern movie form she is a comic section and not a sympathetic character. It just doesn’t ring true | and at time is really rather I ridiculous. If Lena had been given the dress and customs of her day, jmy verdict would have probably j been different. As it is. well, it is ! pretty bad as far as I am concerned. ; But i>e your own judfce. please. Even the cast doesn't ring true. Such a good character actress as Beryl Mercer finds it hopeless to get any place. Charlotte Henry is helpless and without sufficient force to make one sympathetic for poor Lena. The rest of the cast is just ; so so. Now at the Apollo.

gigolo. The best scene in this rather flimsy but ancient v&m is when one gigolo gives the low down to another brother of the nonworking male profession. Adrienne Ames and Alison Skipworth are others prominent in the cast. The gowns of Miss Lombard are beautiful and she knows how to wear them. That is about all that distinguishes this movie. Be your own judge, as usual, but to me "Sinners in the Sun” is just another movie. Now at the Circle. mam CONCERNING A GERMAN MADE MOVIE All the conversation in "The Merry Wives of Vienna” is in German and so is its cast. There are a few subtitles in English so those of us who do not understand German w-ill not *tei lost. The principals are Will Forst and Irene Elsiner and both are capable,

but their method of acting as well as the direction is so different from what we have in this country, I had to borrow the services of a friend who speaks German as my German is very, very limited. Judging by what he told me there is a lot of nifty and rapid :onversation in in this one. Many of the talking

scenes seem to me to be dragged out ! in too much film space, but when I they start singing and dancing this picture is there. We are concerned with a father who has ten pretty daughters and | they rebel and go on the stage or rather the beer garden stage when their dear papa decides to marry a scheming woman. I found this movie refreshing ! when there was music and the meloj dies are charming.
