The works performed at this first The Roxy Shows 'East Meets West', With George Arliss New Films at Loew's Metropolitan and Fox Theaters That subtle potentate, George Arliss, is back at the Roxy outwitting his foes in a highly ceremonious drama entitled "East Meets West Sent to us with the compliments of Gaumont-British, the film is a formulary checkup of the English player's activities as an arch-intriguer, which as you know vary but little whether they are attributed to Disraeli, Richelieu or the Rajah of Rungay. On this occasion Mr.

Arliss Is the Rajah. Tur-baned and bedecked with jewels, he lives in a palace that looks like a Spanish hacienda and with infinite unction mouths the numerous platitudes that are supposed to indicate his diabolic wisdom. It is all quite Ilowery, and about as exciting as the "butterflies against the blue sky" to concert were the Suite No. 3 in the Concerto in minor for two pianos and string orchestra, the Brandenburg Concerto, No. 3 in for strings, and the Concerto in major for three pianos and orchestra.

'Gold Diggers of 1937' On Yuletide Film List With Dick Powell and Joan Blondell in the leading roles, one of the most lavish musicals in years "Gold Diggers of 1937" is scheduled for release by First National on Dec.

25, the day after Christmas. Meanwhile some 16 members of the cast, including 14 of the most beautiful chorus girls In the world, will leave Hollywood in a huge American Airlines plane on Nov. 15 for a nation-wide tour, which Includes stops at 24 cities. Visits to local theaters and receptions by welcoming committees are on the program. Besides the chorus girls, Jeanne Madden, Rosalind Marquis and Fred Lawrence all Warner Brothers-First National featured players will be on the ship.

tison were the solo pianists in the Concerto in major they were Joined by Ernest Hutcheson. And the program was heard by a capacity audience that showed its love for the music and its indifference to the way it was played. Not until Messrs. Maier and Pat tison seated themselves at the pianos did one begin to hear clearly defined rhythms and phrases; and their playing exercised the authority over the orchestra that Mr, Polah was incapable of exercising, so that even the accompaniment acquired something like the style of the solo playing, and there was an approximation to an integrated performance of the work. This vas true to a somewhat less degree in the Concerto for three pianos, for with Mr.

Hutcheson added there was not the same unanimity of feeling among the soloists. Helen Jeffrey Helen Jeffrey, violinist, was heard at Town Hall last niht in a program comprising the brahms Sonata Op. 78, Bach's Sonata No. 2 for violin alone, Chausson's "Poeme," and selections by Pugnanl-Kreisler, Chopin-Milstein, Dvorak-Kreisler, Rachmaninoff and Paganini. Miss Jeffrey is an earnest and fairly well equipped violinist whose muscal perspicacity is handicapped by a tenaceous nervousness.

Through tlie screen imposed by this shortcoming, which seemed last night to stiffen the violinist's left hand and to limit the ability of the bow arm to apply tone-color it was passible to hear the inpient effect of musicianly intentions. The Brahms work, played in a ree ncted range of dynamics, was made v. interesting as possible under the circumstances by the violinist's careful phrasing and, it must be added, by the attentive co-performance of Pierre Luboschutz. In the Bach Sonata, Miss Jeffrey again hinted at more than average understanding, but a growing nervousness interfered with the execution. Paula Ruvinska Paula Ruvinska, young American pianist who appeared in public for the first time last year, gave a recital at Town Hall yesterday after- casion of its first performance.

The whole ballet as a matter of fact gains immensely with further ac-quintance, though its failings obstinately fail to disappear. The company was in good form last night, and dancing of great beauty was performed by Toumo- nova, Riabouchinska, Danilova and Lichine. But there was a definite feeling of lack due to the absence of Baronova. a really great ballerina who has not yet appeared on the ballet programs this season.

'Three Men on a Horse' To Have Early Screening The comedy which drew laughs from tens of thousands as a stage play and has now been made Into a screen play will have Its first showing on Broadway In the near future. According to the local of fices of First National the first print of "Three men on a Horse" arrived here several days ago. Prank McHugh plays the role of "Oiwin," the greeting -are versifier with an uncanny ability for picking winning horses, and Joan Blondell has the leading feminine part.

Other members of the cast Include Teddy Hart and Sam Levene of the original stage cast. 'Women of Glamour' With Gordon Wiles directing, Co lumbia Pictures' "Women of Glamour" is now well under way. The last three players to be signed for this production, which has Melvyn Douglas, Virginia Bruce and Reginald Denny in the leads, are Maurice Cass, Mike Morita and Paui Power.

We find Mr. Arliss, then, as a cultivated Oriental, surrounded by salaaming servants. To him enter Godfrey Tearle, an English ambassador, eager to favor him with the protection of the imperial navy, and Romney Brent, as one Dr. Shagu, proffering his own treaty with an unnamed Eastern power. Figuring also In the tale are a neurotic young Englishman who smuggles liquor Into Rungay, his wife (of vague continental origin) and the Rajah's Oxonian son, who conspires against his father's throne so that he may marry the neurotic smuggler continental wife.

From this review of the dramatis personae it might seem that the odds are all against Mr. Arliss, but, you know, "Wise men profit when fools fall out," and in the end our Rajah has confounded everyone, saving the smuggler for hU wife, his son for the throne and making the diplomats pay him two million pounds for refusing their protection. Gaumont-British have staged the drama as though Mr. Arliss had never done it before, with lots of Oriental flourish and plenty of time oue for those wonderful epigrams. Godfrey Tearle and Lwcie Mannheim do their best to play their roles as though it all really mattered, and Romney Brent tries hard and unsuccessfully to out-Rajah the Rajah.

Need I add that Mr. Arliss himself is at all time the very picture of sly and inscrutable Intent? The Roxy stage show features Mabel Todd, Tony Romano. Morey Amsterdam and Ford Bond. Also on the current bill are Harris. Claire and Shannon, dancers, and the rodeo performers, Bud Carlell and Rosa.

'At Loew's Metropolitan DODSWORTH." a Samuel Goldwyn picture, directed by William Wyler screen nlej by Sidney Howard based on a play hy Sinclair Lewis: with Walter Huston. RTuth Chattenon. Paul Lukas, Mary A. tor. David Nevln.

Gregory Gaye, Marie ejus- "All American vnump. o.rt Mayer picture, with Stuart Erwm, Robert Armstrong and Betty Furnesa. In "Dodsworth," Sinclair Lewis' story of the industrial boss who proposed to quit business and see the world, has been fashioned into a credible and entertaining photoplay, well written and well played. It was not without taxing his dramatic ingenuity that Sidney Howard compressed the action of the novel into 14 scenes for the Broadway stage production of two seasons ago, seeking at once to recreate the chief characters ol tne novei. to put, uicm cnaracters ui mc uu.ti, i lnto a play and to keep one eye on the movies.

But he succeeded so tw in writinz the screen see narlo he has gone back, not to the book, but to the play. The film at Loew's Metropolitan is an admirably wrought transcription. It bene-lits greatly from the larger canvas and freer movement which the camera allows, and Mr. Howard has articulated Its story in dialogue that Is brisk, sensible and always en-gaging. With Walter Huston in the title role and Ruth Chatterton cast, with more than customary felicity, as his vain and shallow wife, the film provides a humorous commentary on the behavior of Americans abroad.

After 20 years of marriage and a successful career as head of a lage motor company. Sam Dodsworth decides to take his fling at Europe, In order, as he says, to learn to use his leisure and "get a perspective on the U. S. His wife aspires to be a wicked woman of the world, to mingle with fashion and live at a speed that Zenith, U. never allowed her.

She fights off age with flirtations, dailies with adultery, and having miserably burned her fingers scuttles back to Sam Dodsworth and the security of home and husband.

Miss Ruvinska has the courage of her musical convictions, and this fact overcomes what for other pianists might be the serious obstacle of a technique which is occasion ally not quite accurate. Her performance of the Beethoven Sonata Op. 2 No. 3 revealed a good perception of form, power and fullness of tone, and an anility to build climaxes without overdramatization. In the Bach-Busonl Chaconne she provided a welcome relief from the mannered Interpretation to which this music has often been subjected.

By its flexibility her playing avoided the fashionable flintiness, and at the same time kept clear of the equally fashionable concoction of languor and quixotic brilliance. It was a balanced, intelligent performance. The program co eluded with selections by Chopin, Weber, Debussy, Godowsky and Infante. R. W.

Miss Chat- terton's portrayal of Mrs. Dodswortn is not always as strong as it might be, but in the final, climactic meeting with her husband she effectively stresses the despicably catty side of the character. Mary Astor does a fresh, forthright job as the understanding other woman, and there are satisfactory performances by Paul Lukas and Gregory Gaye as a couple of European gallants.

But this is, chiefly, Mr. Huston's picture. He plays with easy force and admirable concision. Whether aboard the Queen Mary, in a Paris hotel, or in a Neapolitan garden, he is always the American from Zenith, plain and sympathetic. His is a delightful characterization.

At the Fox "CAIN AND MABEL." a Warner Brothers-Cosmopolitan picture. directed by Lloyd Bacon; screen play by Laird Doyle: music and lyrics oy Marry mm Al Dubin; production numbers by Busby Berkeley and Bobby Connolly: presented at the Fox Brooklyn Theater with a cast including Clark Gable. Marion Davies. Roscoe Karns. Walter Catlett and William Collier Also' THE PRESIDENT'S MYSTERY, a Republic picture, with Harry Wilcoxon and Betty Furness.

"Cain and Mabel" continues Warner Brothers' apparently endless of Broadway with all the old familiar tricks. The new picture at the Fox Brooklyn finds Clark Gable as a heavyweight champion and Marion Davies as a young lady who works her way up from waiting on tables in cafeterias to being a head-liner on the Broadway stage. With the assistance of a couple of prizefights and several dance ensembles by the indefatigable Busby Berkeley, and the jests of a particularly loud and dim-witted script, "Cain and Mabel" rattles on for well over an nour 10 reacn tne inevuauic whlch Mf Gable forsakes an hour to reach the inevitable con ail uiutt being Miss Davies' husband. As is usual In the Gable amours, the present romance proceeds with much nnimnsitv anrl vitriolic wise cracks from both sides until one morning the charming pair wake up to decide that they are in love with each other. Miss Davies first incurs Mr.

Gable's anything but kind attention when she persists in dancing all night over his head on the eve of a big bout. In revenge he pours a pitcher of cold water over her in public. This is suddenly ended by the managers of the two petularit dears, who decide that a headline romance between the two would make the best sort of publicity. A story is given out to the press- which almost, but not quite, wrecks the romance which had already sprouted. Miss Davies.

whom the Warners apparently still believe to have the qualifications of an actress, goes through her role with a blank stare. Mr. Gable is a good deal more attractive in his but seemed rather unconvinced as to its importance. The second feature at the Fox Brooklyn is rather more exciting than the first for a number of reasons. For one, it is straight campaign stuff for President Roosevelt.

"The President's Mystery" was sup-nosedlv suEgested bv the President himself in conversation. It poses the problem of an influential lawyer prominently identified with a great and unscrupulous canning concern, leaving it to try and resusticate a small canning factory, closed by his former efforts, on a cooperative basis. The picture works up considerable interest in his efforts to hiirlr the intprpsts. In the end the i hero i Henry Wilcoxon) not only to PUN JO FLATBV8H AVENl'E.

Sheldon, directed bv Karl Brown, and presented by Grand Nat Tonal at the New Criterion Theater with the following cast: Tom Carver Eric Linden Ruth Brewster Cecilia Parker Clavin Carver Henry Koiker Robert Brewster Charles Richman Elaine Brewster Olive Tell Davidson Harry Beresford Adams Roger Imhof Martha Adams Clara Blandick Judee Grey Warwick The of young love are set forth with a great deal of gravity in the film, "In His Steps," which is the new tenant of the Criterion Theater. Based on the book of the same name which seems to have been required reading for an older generation, the picture tells a sentimentalized story of a couple of youngsters who marry against parental wishes and then hide out until the family wrath cools off.

But the girl's parents, nursing a grievance against the boy's father over a business deal, are determined to bring the boy to trial for criminal abduction. It is a simple and sincere narration, which has been embroidered with a good deal of preaching about loving one's fellow man, faith in each other and similar sound virtues. But good preaching doesn't necessarily make good drama, and in the Criterion film, it is a little tiresome and obvious. In the character of Davidson, a friend of the boy and girl, is. embodied those qualities which make the world a better place to live in.

It is he who walks in the steps of the Saviour. This reviewer was not inclined to sympathize with the plight of Tom Carver and Ruth Brewster since they really seemed childish and ill fitted for marriage. Our prejudice started when Tom raced his car along the highway at 120 miles an hour, which, to our mind, is a crime deserving of a jail sentence equal to the one for criminal abduction.

Surf An. aad S2d Gorgeou. Hussy; and The Shakedown CROWN HEIGHTS The item of special interest on the Ballet Russe program at the Metropolitan last night was the first New York performance of a Lichine choreography. Heretofore Lichine has been known to us as a highly gifted dancer.

Last night he dem onstrated his abilities as a composer. The ballet which he has choreo-Kraphed is "Pavilion" to music by Borodine. It is a slight affair, but ingenious. The story on which it is based is as evanescent as the danc- 'n8- and has to do with a poet who has a rendezvous with with a young lady in a pavillion. The two en counter some difficulty in getting together, because of the constant in terference of a bevy of bewitching spirits.

The midnight atmosphere is redolent of mystery and static Choreographically the ballet is made of conventional material, but Lichine manages, in certain spots, to do something with it that is highly con ventional. These moments, however, inspiration. The movement is clever smack of invention rather than of inspiration. The movment is clever and from a mechanical point of view enthralling. Lichine's solo is a masterpiece of ingenuity, and he has contrived a dance of Riabou chinska that recalls the legendary dancing of Taglioni.

For such isolated moments "Pavilion" is memorable, but the composition as a whole leaves one with the conviction that Lichine's forte is dancing rather than choreography. The other two ballets that com prisea last nignt program were "Symphonie Fantastique," which had its first showing on the open ing night, and "Le Beau Danube, Massine's charming ballet to Strauss music. "Symphonie Fantasique," on second seeing, revealed subtleties that are inevitably missed at a first performance. The first movement cfm.e through with far greater clar- i lllllb Lliail It.
