**"FLIRTATION WALK"
A First National Picture directed by
Frank Borzage, co-starring Dick Powell
andrRuby Keeler, and featuring Pat
O'Brien and Ross Alexander. Also an
aw-w-w-ful Paramount variety, '"The
Superstition of the Black Cat," Para-
mount News, and Paul Tompkins' organ
program.
Viewing the military musical "Flir-
tation Walk" in the light of a cine-
matic fripponery which is intended to1
entertain through an ingenious set-I
ting in the midst of West Point in
which youthful, apple-cheeked Dick
Powell and demure, perennially pop-
ular Ruby Keeler can sing, love, and
get into trouble and get out of it,
"success" is the word to be applied.
It's as good a vehicle as any the two
have yet enjoyed. Two song hits
which, sadly enough, have already
had the polish of newness worn off
are included, and there is a handsome
rival officer-lover, a diamond-in-the-
rough pal, a genial father, and the
other accessories of a snappy musical.
Well, isn't that enough? Yes, per-
haps. The kick many will have to reg-
ister with "Flirtation Walk" is not
about what it does not contain, but
rather about the fact that it does con-
tain almost undisguised military
propaganda from "dedication" to
fadeout. Thus, it may conceivably
be argued, from an intelligent pro-
social point of view "Flirtation Walk"
is so much chocolate-covered poison,
for in the guise of parades, bands,
flags, powder and steel it exalts in the
Hollywood way a modern giant which
is better left unexalted, at least. Yet
on the other hand let's concede to
"Flirtation Walk" that it is happy and
ridiculous, fast but a little trite, and
oh, not so bad after all. There are
many, many worse! -it is always
wise and comforting to remember
this.
The program of shorts should not
go unattacked. "The Superstition of
the Black Cat" is a shoddy jumble-
jem which involves one man and wife,
one witch, one black cat, two pretty
maids of Ireland, a handful of extras,
and the two dollars and ninety-eight
Following the visit of Intramural!
Director F. A. Rowe this week, the au-
thorities at Iowa University are en-
deavoring to secure $5,000 as the be-
ginning of an inter-class athletic
system patterned after that of Mich-
igan.
Between 200 and 300 engineers are
expected in Ann. Arbor to attend the
meeting on the Michigan Engineering
Society next month'. The assembly is
under the direct auspices of the
University and many University en-
gineering professors will take an
active part in it.
