SCREEN > j REFLECTIONS School of Public Health ' Committee Head. Returning from Harvard uni-' versity, Dr. Hugh Cabot, dean of{ the School of Medicine, yesterday told in an interview important functions of the Harvard Board of Overseers, to which he has been recently appointed. Dr. Cabot has been elected to several positions on the board, including chairman of the School of Public Health com- mittee, and member of the Medical School committee. The Board of Overseers, accord- ing to Dr. Cabot, is a college insti- tution found only at Harvard. The differentiating feature is that the Board, consisting of five men serv- ing for six years, is notappointed, but elected by the vote of every Assocsate rPrr. Pho>to active Harvard alumnus.

MAJESTIC: Monte Blue and May McAvay in "No Defense." WUERTH: Warner Oland andE Neil Hamilton in "The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu." Fast Comedy. Foremost among the new order of talking picture comedians is one Jack Oakie, who gets his laughs not through pantomine or any of the old devices of the silent funny- man, but by fast, snappy, ultra- modern "wise-cracking." Possessed of a voice and manner well-suited to this style, he has already estab- lished himself as a prime favorite after roles in "Street Girl," "Hard To Get," and several other films. Now he is featured at the Michi- igan in "Fast Company," a comedy from the pen of Ring Lardner, in which he is the small town boy who makes good in a big way. Besides Oakie, there's an able cast headed by Evelyn Brent, Skeets Gallagher, and Gwen Lee, the latter losing her job at the five-and-ten "because she couldn't remember the prices." The picture travels along at a lively clip, consistently amusing throughout. It's a likeable film, well-worth seeing.
