‘CAVALCADE’ AND ‘WHITE SISTER’ ARE ON MOVIE MENU
Richard Barthelmess Is Cast a Daring Aviator in ‘Central Airport,' Easter Week Feature on the Talking Screen at the Circle. * /"’’At, ALCADE, the screen adaptation by Fox Films of Noel Coward's v> stage play of the same name, reputed to have enjoyed a successful run as a play in London, is the current attraction at the Apollo. The new picture, which has appeared in many of the leading theaters as a road-show attraction, heads the Easter week program at the Illinois street playhouse. Cavalcade, accoiding to reports, is a story of how world events affect the home and the family. It also presents three romances, as well as depicting the record of the march of the- generation. The first romance is one between husband and wife, a rather unique
departure in these days when marital difficulties supply the theme for so many dramas. It Is this romance of the Marryots, enduring through the trials and vicissitudes of the chaotic past thirty years that is said to add power and strength to "Cavalcade.” The second romance starts with e boy and girl affair between the older Marryot son and Edith, the daughter of Mrs. Marryot's friend. The third romance is a modernday affair between young Joe Marryot, and Fanny Bridges, a dancer who is the toast of London, but whose parents were formerly servants of the Marryots. The picture covers the period from 1900 to the present day. Frank Lloyd, supervised the direction. Cast includes Clive Brook, Diana Wynyard. Herbert Mundin, TJna O'Connor, Beryl Mercer, Irene Browne, Frank Lawton and Merle Tottenham. Especially selected short subjects round out the program. a a a "THE WHITE SISTER" IS NOW AT THE PALACE F. Marion Crawford's romance, "The White Sister” is on now at Loews Palace for an exclusive Indianapolis engagement with Helen Hayes and Clark Gable in the starring roles. The story of a girl who enters a convent when she believes her lover to be dead only to meet him again after she has taken her holy vows, is too well known to bear repetition. ' Miss Hayes is cast as the Italian girl who, on the eve of her marriage to a man of her father's choice, meets and falls in love with a soldier. Gable is cast as the Italian aviator who wins the heart and love of Miss Hayes. Lewis Stone is cast as the aristocratic father who forbids his daughter’s love. Louise Closser Hale is seen as the family servant. May Robson, remembered for her work in "Strange Interlude” and ‘‘Men Must Fight,” is cast as the Mother Superior. Edw'ard Arnold, the doctor of "Rasputin and the Empress,” is seen as Father Saracinesca. "The White Sister" was adapted to the talking screen for the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios by Donald Ogden Stewart. Victor Fleming, whose most recent talkie effort was the Gable-Harlow success, “Red Dust,” directed this new production. Charlie Chase, comedian, in his newest comedy hit, "His Silent Racket"; a Walt Disney Silly Symphony cartoon novelty, "Birds in the Spring," filmed entirely in technicolor, and the highlights of the news of the week, as picturized by the most recent issue of the Hearst Metrotone News, round out the program. tt tt tt BARTHELMESS IS STARRED AT CIRCLE "Central Airport."

film glorifying peace—not war—heroes, is on now at the Circle, Richard Barthelmess is shown as an ex-war ace, intrusted with piloting a trans-continental passenger plane through newly charted airlines. Then engine trouble, a forced landing and snuffed out lives and Barthelmess becomes a discredited commercial flyer. Cast adrift from his profession, Dick finally ends up as a stunt flyer with a traveling air circus, where he meets and falls in love with Sally Eilers, who plays a parachute jumper as daring as she is comely. Their love, affair develops into proportioas equally reckless, unconventional and defiant, as they are of danger. When Dick’s best friend is killed in a crack-up, Dick remarks that no flyer has a right to get married. Sally marries someone else and Dick becomes ever more reckless in the air. His fame for daring spreads far and wide and while in tropical waters he becomes a national hero for his courageous rescue work in one of the most sensational plane disasters the world had known.

Tenor Will Be Guest Soloist Martinelli to Sing With Mendelssohn Choir at Keith's Theater. On Sunday afternoon, April 23. at Keith's. Mrs. Nancy Martens will close her current season by presenting Giovanni Martinelli and the Mendelssohn Choir in joint recital. Martinelli might have been a cabinet maker instead of one of the world's greatest singers. As Giovanni was the oldest of fourteen children in the little town of Montagnana, his father wished him to help in his shop and gradually take over his cabinet-making business. Largely through the insistence of an army officer who chanced to hear him sing and who predicted a brilliant musical career for the young man, the elder Martinelli finally consented to permit Giovanni to go to Rome to study under Professor Mandolini. Three years after his operatic debut in “Ernani” in Milan, Martinelli became the leading tenor at the Metropolitan.
