It is an odd combination of success story (the one about the local boy who makes good) and underworld melodrama, but since it never manages to deal very Intelligently with either it must be set down as Just another movie idea that failed to come off.

Brooklyn Dally Eajlt At tbe Palace Mary Lewis, late of the Metropolitan Opera Company, is making her vaudeville debut at the Palace Theater In Manhattan, this week. The famous American soprano sings several songs, balancing her bill nicely between classical and popular music. She adds a decldely better tone to a program that Is somewhat of a rough and tumble nature. Ted Healy is principally responsible for the popular end of the program. Not only is he master of ceremonies, instead of Lou Holtz.

who has been filling that role for several weeks, but Healy also has a regular turn with his "gang oi racketeers." It Is an excellent revue that includes singing, dancing, clowning, and all-around tumbling. Art Frank appears as a country man In a short sketch called 'The Maine Squeeze." It was In several scenes, and was fairly amusing. Others on the bill were the Five Ansleys, Rlsley experts; Miss Van-essl, a dancer of more than ordi nary ability; Fritz and Jean Hubert; the Lovejoy dancers; and Frank Radcllff and Bob Williams, colored comedians. Blackstone at Loew'i The Great Blackstone, a famous magician, will on Dec. 13 open another tour of the Loew circuit, presenting new Illusions.

He will play a full week at each house. AMUSEMENTS MANHATTAN WORLD PRFMILRr. Nee. -Hth F.M. Thankvf Ivlni Kh.we VIENNESE NIGHTS WXRNFR BR OB.

Quite by accident he falls In with a gang of big gamblers, one of whom takes a fancy to Eddie and offers to make him his partner.

The ex-messenger, you see, had a knack of throwing dice and filling inside straights and Ace Diamond thought that the kid's uncanny luck could be capitalized to their mutual advantage. Eddie soon was riding around in his own Rolls Royce and, just to make the little fable complete, it was no time at all before he got the idea that he'd like to marry his former boss' daughter. So much for the story of the boy who made good. The last half of "Big Money" is almost entirely concerned with a feud between rival gangs of racketeers and, although Eddie becomes innocently Involved in the proceedings, it is for the most part Just another course in the school of movie racketeering. It brings to the screen at the Globe nothing much that is new.

As has already been hinted, the Messrs. Armstrong, Gleason, Gleck-ler and Quillan and the Misses Seeger, Livingston and Christy represent an unusual concentration of talent in a single picture. But with the exception of the youthful Mr. Quillan, who has by far the Juiciest part, most of them seem to have been wasted upon such a mediocre production as "Big Money." P. S.

The ex-messenger boy turns over a new leaf and marries the boss' daughter. At the Albee ALBEE THEATER "The Cat Creepa," talking Jllm version of "The Cat and the Canary." with Helen Twelvetreee, Jean Hersholt, Raymond Hackett, Lllyan Taahman, Theodore Von Elu and Lawrence Grant. On the etage: Ken Murray, William Oaxton and othera. "The Cat and the Canary" was once the most exciting of mystery plays. But that was seven or eight years ago.

Then it was produced as a spine-chilling silent movie under the direction of the brilliant Paul Leni. But that, too, was quite a while back. Now the old mystery thriller has become a talkie, and under the revised title of "The Cat Creeps" it may be heard as well as seen at the Albee Theater any day this week. But It isn't what it used to be. It is Just possible that the events in "The Cat and the Canary" have become too familiar to continue to raise the hair on local moviegoers' scalps.

Even if the current talkie version had been handled more skillfully than it has it would still be doubtful whether the midnight episodes in the old mansion could be today anything more than mildly exciting movie material. You know the story, of course about the will that was to be read to a gathering of relatives in a deserted house at midnight and about the villain (the who tried to scare the heroine (the out of her wits as well as her inheritance. There are the usual sliding panels, clutching hands, sudden disappearances, shrieks in the dark and all the other familiar details that go with the routine mystery play. You doubtless are acquainted with them all, and unless you happen to be one of the two or three people who haven't yet seen "The Cat and the Canary" we are afraid this week's screen attraction at the Albee can offer you nothing much in the way of novelty. We almost forgot to mention that the principal roles in "The Cat Creeps" are played by Helen Twelvetrees, Raymond Hackett, Jean Hersholt, Theodore Von Eltz, Lllyan Tashman and Lawrence Grant.

And that by far the best performances are given by Mr. Hersholt, as a sinister physician, and by Mr. Grant, who plays the family lawyer. The new vaudeville program at Vacancy Salary Will Help Boost 3 Educators' Pay $12,000 Will Be Divided BoyWs Successor May Be Named About Feb. 1.

The 112,500 salary of the associate superlntendency, made vacant six months ago by the promotion of William A. Boylan to president of Brooklyn College, will be used to increase the salaries of three men attached to the superintendent's office so they can be called district superintendents, according to reports current today In school circles. The three men are Rufus A. Vance, former principal of St. Clair McKelway Junior High School; Jacob Oreenberg, director of foreign languages In Junior high schools, and Frederic Ernst, attached to Superintendent OShea's office.

Delete Bequest for 17,000 When a request for 17.000 was placed In the 1931 school budget or this purpose the Board of Estimate deleted it. President Ryan of the Board of 'Education merely In replying said: "We will get around to filling this Job soon." Effort Madi Fill Although a Hat of 11 candidates la on file at tha Board, no other the Albee features an assortment of popular musical comedy stars. Ken Murray and his gang present an entertaining incident called "Pooling Around." William Gaxton, formerly of "Fifty Million Frenchmen," is revealed In a Jolly skit entitled "Partners." Helen Brown, who used to be In the Ziegfeld Follies, dances with the assistance of a group of Albertina Rasch girls. Foster, Fagan and Cox in "Humorous Harmony" also are on the bill. Strand Film Continues The Brooklyn Strand Theater is retaining as its feature film this week "The Doorway to Hell." This will be remembered as the underworld melodrama concerned with the activities of beer runners in Chicago which played to large attendance during its extended engagement at the Strand Theater in Manhattan.

Lew Ayres, Dorothy Mathews, James Cagney and Robert Elliott play the principal roles. The picture was directed by Archie Mayo. The local Strand Is continuing also the same group of Vita-phone short subjects which augmented the feature last week. "Min and Bill" "MIN AND BILL." a Metro-Ooldwyn-Mayer production, adapted from the novel. "The Dark Star" by Lorna Moon, directed by George Hill, with Marie Dressier, Wallace Beery, Marjorle Ram beau and Dorothy Jordan, presented at the Capitol Theater.

"Mln and Bill," the unimpressively titled production at the Capitol Theater is a gala occasion for Marie Dressier, for she has an opportunity to reveal all the tricks, both comic and tragic, of which she is so accomplished a past master. The vehicle which affords this is a "moviesque" but frequently mov ing melodrama, set along a California waterfront, and stamped with dramatic cliches, which prove themselves still effective, in spite of their senility. What distinguishes it, in addition to the artistry of Marie Dressier, is a tremendously powerful performance by Marjorle Ram-beau, who creates a "Sadie Thompson" role with gusto, and vitality. The slapstick aroma of its title gives no indication that this new production is fashioned more along tragio lines. But such is the case.

Save for a few roughhouse antics. which are particularly unpleasant, one especially In which Miss Dressier hurls everything including tne kitchen sink at the flirtatious Bill, "Min and Bill" is an unhappy tale of Nancy, a waif who has been reared by Mln in the wharf cafe, "The Dark Star" which she owns. and on reaching late adolescence. Is sent to a healthier moral environment, namely ths home of the school superintendent. Min adores the girl in her clumsy, inarticulate way, but tries to loosen the ties for Nancy's benefit.

The appearance of a garishly dressed blonde named Bella, establishes the maternal parenthood of Nancy. Min convinces Bella that her daughter is dead, but a few years later, Bella comes back, learns the truth, and means to share in the wealth and happiness that Nancy reaps with her impending marriage 10 tne town's wealthiest heir. Min rudely stops her with a gun. The final scene is maneuvered in a dramatic fashion, though there is a question left in the mind of the audience as to the eventual conclusion. Tne role of this waterfront cafe proprietress, of which Miss Dressier makes so poignant a characterization, is reminiscent of the "Anna Christie" Dressier.

Wallace Beery is Bill, the Dark Star's favorite boarder and perhaps something more. He Is relatively unimportant, however, to the plot. The charming Dorothy Jordan Is Nancy. J. W.

effort to name Boylan'l successor was made before the election In order to avoid campaign controversies. But with the election in the background, the board has still failed to act. Meanwhile another associate superlntendency will fall vacant on Feb. 1. next when Dr.

Gustave Straubenmuller will retire. It la believed that the Board of Education will fill both posts simultaneously. But this Is some weeks away. The Teachers' Union has protested against this delay, and urged that successors be named six months before a post is vacated, whenever possible, so the new men will have an opportunity to familiarize themselves with new duties, thus promoting efficiency.
