aid Di 11away, Mary Carlisle and Luis Alberni. Edgar Selwyn. who attracted wide attention by his direction of “The Sin of Madelon Claudet,” directed this one. The 1940 scenes, showing bril- j liantly novel settings and entirely j new styles in gowns, are impressive.! “Men Must Fight” is the story of j a woman's fight to prevent her son | from being forced into war. When j the mother marries again, this time | becoming the wife of an American ! secretary of state, she uses her in- I fluence to prevent war, only to learn that when the flags start waving, ' men must fight. The picture is based on the Regi- ! nald Lawrence-S. K. Lauren play : which caused comment when pro- j riuced on Broadway earlier this season. Short subjects comprising the bal- j ance of the program includes a Charley Chase comedy, “Nature in the Wrong,” a James Fitz Patrick Traveltalk, “Ireland, Land of the Vikings"; a Walt Disney Mickey Mouse cartoon comic, 'Touchdown Mickey,” and the most recent issue of the Hoarst Metrotone News. a a a BOSWELL SISTERS TOP INDIANA SHOW The Boswell Sisters in person on! the stage of the Indiana theater! head the program there this week.; Buster Crabbe, new Paramount star,! is seen in "King of the Jungle,” the; screen attraction. Martha, Connie and Vet are the names of the girls from the south in the trio. They were originally! from New Orleans and started their! vaudeville w'ork there. In the radio field they advanced! quickly to fame as features on the! Chesterfield program. Besides their j radio work they have made many' recordings and climaxed their work! by their appearance in "The Big' Broadcast.’ The sisters will feature their! unique vocal harmonies with their primitive rhythm. Their program 1 includes popular and southern mel- ! odies. In “King of the Jungle," Buster ! Crabbe is supported by Frances Dee,! Irving Pichel and Sidney Toler.! Crabbe is cast as a youth who, orphaned in the African jungle at an early age, grows up with a pack ; of roaming lions and ultimately be- ; comes their leader. Captured while trying to rescue! one of the pack who is trapped, he is brought to the United States, j where he becomes head trainer in a | circus. The film reaches its climax when fire breaks out in the circus and the hysterical animals break loose from their cages to roam through the streets of a big city, leaving a trail of death and destruction. aa a . JOHN BARRYMORE HEADS “TOPAZE” CAST John Barrymore’s newest screen stardom finds him doing comedy—a comedy that is thought to combine whimsical characterization with spicy plot and saucy dialogue. The new film, "Topaze,” produced by RKO-Radio under the direction of Harry d’Arrast, is appearing currently on the screen of the Apollo, where it will remain through Thursday next. Professsor August Topaze. played by Barrymore, promises at first to be a goody-good, for he is seen teaching worldly-wise modern boys that honesty is essential to success. This maxim gets its first jolt when his conscientiousness loses him his teaching job, and its second when he finds his honesty is enabling the unscrupulous Baron de Latour-La-tour to wallow most happpily in illgot teen gains. The Baron needs the services of either an idiot or a scoundrel, and he prefers an idiot, feeling that he has found one in the M. Topaze. This is the Baron's mistake, as the modest professor discovers his own ego and things start to happen. Miss Myrna Loy is the intriguing cause of heart interest, Reginald

Mason is the rascally but likable Baron, and others in the cast are Albert Conti, Luis Tlbemi, Jobyna Howland, Frank Reicher, Jackie Searl and Lowden Adams. Short subjects of the program include “So This Is Harris,” starring Phil Harris, radio star, and Walter Catlett; Movietone News and an animated cartoon. ana MOVIE MUSICAL COMEDY AT CIRCLE. “Forty-Second Street,” Warner Brothers’ musical extravaganza.! opened yesterday at the Circle. This picture is said to offer some- j thing new—powerful drama—in the j application of music to a screen j story. It follows the production of j a big Broadway musical show from ! the rehearsals to the grand open- ! ing. It shows 150 beautiful girls in some of the most novel and intricate dances ever staged for the screen. It Is the dramatic story of the noisy, blatant, loose, sentimental theatrical district, w'ith the tides of human love and human life running strong under the grease paint and ostrich feathers. It is one of the most colorful and most ambitious pieces composed for a motion picture. There is also a Cinderella theme —the little chorus girl who steps into the star’s shoes on the opening night—and panics the audience, the part taken by Ruby Keeler, wife of A1 Jolson. This is her first screen appearance, and it is said that she performs creditably. Others in a notable cast are Warner Baxter, Bebe Daniels, George Brent, Una Merkel, Guy Kibbe, Ned Sparks, Dick Powell, Ginger Rogers and Allen Jenkins. The film was adapted from the novel of Bradford Ropes by Rian James and James Seymour and directed by Lloyd Bacon, son of Frank Bacon. The dances and ensembles were created and staged by the noted Broadway director, Busby Berkeley.
