The Screen This Week In fl Ann Arbor Galaxy of Stars 1 To Open Musical D 0SeasoOn Friday HIGHESTPOSITION Opening Concert to be Same as That (Continued from Page One) l Given Sunday Evening at Metro- [7CT . .,. a ...h (By Edwin IL. iMeiss) This week is one which should prove a delight to the movie fan, but in a review of the pictures the Majestic seems to have the edge. The other houses, however, also offer some most attractive productions. Today Wally .Reid comes rushing along in a new picture, "What's Your Hurry?" The scenario is adapted from the Saturday Evening Post story, "The Hippopotamus Parade," and tells the adventures of a young racing driver whose sweetheart's father, president of a motor truck concern, is sweet on commercial cars but not on speed demons. Father is peeved because the news- papers give free; front page ads to the races, and yet will not mention his much more useful contribution to modern industry. Wally as the racer, after many failures to ingratiate him- self with the indignant president, fin- ally puts the trucks into the limelight of publicity, secures a big order for the firm, saves his sweetheart and her father from death, and gains the lat- ter's consent to be his son-in-law. The show is a bear-cat; don't miss it. Arcade Shines Forth The Arcade boasts a Mary Roberts: Rhinehart comedy to initiate the week, with a similar cast to that which ap- peared in "Going Some" two weeks ago. The screen title is "It's a Great Life," but the story originally appeared as "Empire Builders." The tale is one of prep school life, the dreams of two youths, with the always interest- ing element of puppy love. Cullen Landis plays the leading role, but the whole cast is very adequate and 'the picture should be intensely amusing. Mary Miles Minter, one'of the most delightful personalities of the screen, opens the week today at the WuerthI in "Sweet Lavender." The story is too! long and intricate to relate here, but7 the picture promises to be quite un-J usual, and will appeal to anyone and everyone. Last year Constance Binney ap- peared in Ann Arbor in her great stage success, "39 East." This Wednesday she returns again-in shadow and offers+ to amuse us in a screen version of that absorbing drama.1 The plot deals with a minister's daughter who is forced to dance in a New York chorus in order to make her living. She rooms at 39 East, a board- ing house where everyone gossips? about her and treats her as an out-:. cast. While living there she meets the young man with whom after many misadvaneures and misunderstandings she plights her troth. Constant Bin- ney is always charming and the pic- ture will be one of the best mid-week entertainments that has appeared here in quite a while. At the same time Elaine Hammer- stein appears at the Arcade in "Point of View," a production which will probably uphold her usual standard. Zasu Coming Zasu Pitts, that little comedienne who appeals to the sympathies of so many movie goers, will star at the Wuerth on Wednesday in an interpre- tive play, "The Heart of Twenty." Miss Pitts takes the part of a young woman, who aspires to do the things that other, girls of her age do, but whose ardour' is suppressed by an old maiden aunt who has long since forgotten her youth. Meanwhile in Detroit the stage gf- fers two worthy attractions, one being the San Carlo Opera company at the Schubert-Detroit tlpatre, which will render various popular operas through- .1 k7 lao..h pganization. Wcttem parae an politan Opera House see the proof. out the week. The company comes di- rect from New York and carries with it quite a few of the most prominent artists of the country. At the Garrick, Nora Bayes opens a two weeks' performance of her new show, "Her Family Tree." This show from all points of view should be a corker, as it gives full range to Miss Bayes' versatility. , To Detroiters and to students of Michigan this review should be of greater interest because of the fact that both the music and the book were written by Detroit men who attended this university, Seymour Simons and Al Weeks respectively. Cecille B. DeMille productions are always welcome in Ann Arbor as well as in every other community. Begin- ning Friday, another one of his mar- riage question pictures entitled, "Old Wives for New," will appear at the Majestic. The cast includes such celebrities as Wanda Hawley, Elliot Dexter, Theo- dore Roberts and Tully Marshall, as well as a few other well known screen screen artists. The plot of the play promises some- thing similar to "Why Change Your Wife?" but probably will be less elab- orate. At any rate it's a DeMille pro- duction, and as such is worth encour- aging. Those whose torsos begin to quiver every time a Victrola is turned on should report to the Arcade Friday or Saturday to receive a message from Madge Kennedy, "The Girl with the Jazz Heart." Come see the famous shimmie dancer who shimmies so well that a New York theatre hired her during the hot weather in place of a refrigerating machine. The picture is a two-parts-for-the-star affair and will be of interest to everyone. Thriller on Bill Daredevil George Walsh arrives in town Friday with his latest thriller, "From Now On." The plot deals with a man who serves a jail sentence for stealing and hiding some money which rightfully belongs to him. When his term ends, the officials tell him that he is free but that from then on he will be hounded until he gives up the stolen money. The picture is quite up to standard and for those who like George Walsh it will furnish a worthy afternoon or evening's entertainment. After five days of mediocre Jack Dempsey pictures and serials the Or- pheum stages a comeback Friday with the appearance of Alice Lake in a re- turn of that popular picture, "Should a Woman Tell?" It is a dramatic story of a New England fisher girl, fared with the problem of whether or not to reveal to the man she loved, the secret of her youth. The picture is very good and successfully rounds off a week of productions at most of the theatres above the average. Michigan Daily liners bring re- sults.-Adv. (By L. L. N.)
