Jl THE BROOKLYN DAILY "EA'GUE. NEW YORK, TUESDAY, JULY 2. 1929. 3 'Sketch Book' Arrives 'Qreat Day' in Jamaica Film Reviews Stage Netvs THE CURRENT, STAGE AND SCREEN PRESENT: The Theater Plays and Players Christopher Morley, Author-Manager, to Play Old Tom "After Dark" Next Week. Stage Gossip.

Those friends of Christopher Morley who missed seeing him as aa actor last fall when he appeared for 10 days in a role in his own play, "Pleased to Meet You," will have another opportunity next week. Beginning Monday and for one week only, he will play Old Tom, tha principal character in "After Dark," now in Its 30th week at the Old Rialto, Hoboken. Arthur Morris, who has been Old Tom for the last Mr. CarrolVs Pretty Ladies Make High Carnival at the Earl Carroll Theater in a Revue Authored by Eddie Cantor. As far as literary classification goes, the first edition ol "Earl Carroll's Sketch Book," unveiled at the Earl' Carroll Theater last night, finds its rightful place on the shelf that holds the elaborate volumes printed every now and again to advertise the charms of enterprising summer resorts.

It has, in common with these brochures, illustrations consisting of group scenes of beautiful girls in pleasing poses, generous space devoted to the retailing of stories that grandpapa laughed at and a binding far more rich and rare than its content. It is an intimate show in an expansive way. There is a bath mil Br less nakedness than Mr. Carroll "if II Movie Daguerreotypes LOLA LANE. Lola Lane, a recent addition to Fox players, was discovered by Gus Edwards.

With hrr sister, Lola was for many yeais the chief attraction of benefit concerts in Indianola, a town which, In case you care to know, Is In Iowa, the Slate where the tall com grows. For some reason or other Edwards was in Indianola on a nignt when the Lane sisters were singing. He was pleased with Lola's voice as well as with Leota's. Lola is five feet two inches tall, weighs 120 pounds and has light-brown hair and violet eyes. Edwards thought she would be able to make her way In New York.

He was right. Two weeks after the Lane sisters arrived on Broadway they were members of the cast of the Greenwich Village Follies. Within a month they were featured in the show. Vaudeville engagements followed. Then Lola was signed for the leading role opposite George Jessel in "The War Song." Benjamin Stoloff, Fox Movietone director, invited her to make a screen test.

As a result she was engaged for the feminine lead in "Speakeasy." She has more recently been seen as a featured member of the cast of the "Fox Movietone Follies." All this has happened within two years to the daughter of Indianola's leading physician. Until she came to New York Lola had never taken a single singing lesson. Warner Baxter at the Explorer-Hero Roxy Thie tub, yes, but, on the whole, there usually considers necesary for theT achievement of his effects. The revue consists of 54 scenes, no less. To begin at the beginning, Eddie Cantor appears as a member of the cast in spite of his Zicgfeld contract.

This by means of a photu-phone prologue, which is a dialogue between Eddie and Earl. Mr. Carroll throws himself into the spirit of sound pictures to the extent of making one of those speeches that herald "coming attractions" on the screen. He runs through the roll of his featured players and sweetly suggescs that each and every member of the cast is a potential star. MOre pleasing to the eye than tc the ear is the entertainment that follows the old master's clearspoken promises.

Not that the music of the show is poor in fact, two tune, Fascinating You" and "Song of the Moonbeams," will doubtless be danced to for many months. But there is nobody present who has an unusually good voice. Pretty stepping there is, however in plenty. A man named Omar does extraordinarily competent cartwheels at tremendous speed. A gr-1 named Grace Du Paye does acrobatic dancing of the slow type known as "control," a sight worth seeing if you can bear to look at it.

The chorusesare unusually adept and well trained. And Will Mahoney goes in heavily for clogging. And, as long as his name has come tip, this is as good a time as any to point Mr. Mahoney out as the hardest working member of the cast. He does a trained dog act, an imitation of mammy singers, a solo dance, ets.

In fact, he popped in and out so often that it was astounding to find his name in only 11 of the 50 scenes. Whether he was applauded for his industry or his talent, this reviewer could not decide. Certainly many of his admirers were present at the Earl Carroll Theater last night. Among the ladies who were busiest Patsy Kelly, a comedienne of the Bay Dooley type minus the screaming, was extremely attractive in rather unpleasant situations. he had been given better material, the revue's lack of humor would have been largely done away with.

Whatever else may be said for "Fashions In Love," the new talking picture at the Manhattan Paramount Theater, its major accomplishments are without a doubt Adolphe Menjou's.

In this plcturlzation of Herbert Bahr's play, "The Concert," Paramount's starched and debonair ambassador essays his first spoken role. The part is not an easy one as soundbox assignments go sometimes, even, M. Menjou is called upon to express himself In French but it is distinctly to this personable star's credit that he conducts himself with the poise and easy confidence of a seasoned stage player.

I stood it for an hour or two and finally, unable to stand it any more, saluted the sergeont and said (in French, of course: it's the French Foreign Legion and they only talk French when they're not walking 80.000 kilos), "I wish you'd stop that, Sergeant Lejones." He looked at me amazed. "Who are you, mon enfant?" he snarled between clenched teeth.

I told him. "What right have you to ask me to stop, canaille?" he smiled. I was stumped for a minute and then, remembering I belonged to the S. P. C.

I showed him my membership card. Instantly he was contritehe couldn't read either and stopped whipping Pierre, who was dead anyhow and who wouldn't walk 80,000 kilos any more. Lejones blew his "whistle ln French, of course; it's the French Foreign Legion and they only blow their whistles in French) and shouted something meaning to get going. Having nothing to do, I took a few hitches in my tongue, which had slipped down to my belt, and started walking again. We had been walking about an hour or so when I said to Pierre, who had rejoined us "How far have we walked today, Pierre?" "Eighty thousand kilos and I am already tired." he said.

"Oh." I said. Night fell as only those abrupt antarctic nights can fall very quietly, unlike anything clue in the world except a falling piano. Lejones turned around (in French, of course) and shouted those words meaning to stop. We stopped. Then he shouted another word or two meaning "You can park here for an hour." 8o we reefed our sails and parked.

The next morning, as soon as the blazing tropical sun had come up, we started marching again. Within a 'few hours we reached the disputed territory held by Sheikh Bald on Mouthful. It was raining and although soaked to the skin I didn't mind. We dug trenches and waited for the attack we knew would be forthcoming momentarily. We were right, for about a month later the Eskimos attacked and I was killed.

may also be said that the thrush of the O'Day family becomes the toast of Broadway by easy stages. He runs away from home because papa, mamma and his best girl believe he has stolen money from the Jug in back of the clock. He meets a press agent (theatrical species) in a free sermon and free meal parlor. The press agent takes him to sing at a social club in the Third Ward. At this party a night club owner is present.

All right, go on from there. But you'll never in thLs world guess that the very night Tommy O'Day was to open as the star in his first Broadway appearance was the night Mrs. O'Day chose to lay down and die at least all but die. Helen Chandler is miscast as a tenement sweetie. Morton Downey can put a song across, but he can't ao anytmng else.

Osgood Perkins is. as usual, entirely satisfactory, although It is a pity to waste his satirical talents in a broken-down music-master part. Mother O'Day is one bundle of whimsy and Father O'Day another.

She Is returnine to Hollywood to make a talking movie as Will Rogers' leading woman. This Is particularly interesting as her first important experience before tne camera was in this same capacity.

She says she will come back to RKO vaudeville when the picture is completed. RESTAURANTS BROOKLYN.

"GREAT DAY," a new musical play of the Southland, presented at Werba's Ja-maca Theater by Vincent Youmans. Book by Anne Caldwell, w. Cary Duncan and John Wells. Music by Vincent Youmans, lyrics by William Rose and Edward Ells-cu. PRINCIPALS IN THE CAST.

The idea that every one in Queens has gone to the, seashore or the mountains for the summer was dispelled long before reaching the theater. From the interest displayed it is quite evident that the big boro is hungry for the right kind oi theatrical fare. "Great Day" is a pretentious and costly effort, with an enormous number of people and some amusing features. Among the stars that manage to snine in the large assembly are Miller and Lyles, Jack Hazzard, Lillian Tata and Charles Pur-, cell. The real attraction of the show, however, is a large troupe of colored Jubilee singers, led by Lois Deppe.

These singers, with their rich and well-harmonized voices, are well worth hearing. Miller and Lyles, always amusing, provide most of the comedy, which is blackface drollery of a kind that never gets tiresome. They have more to do than the other principals, and do it well. This, coupled with the uniform excellence of the other colored performers, gives the colored contingent much the better of it In competition with the white entertainers. One gathers that "Great Day" in the process of evilution has become rather unwieldy and undecided as to Just what kind of entertainment it alms to be.

It might be a great deal better if that point was settled once and for all. Since the colored singers nnd dancers, to say nothing of Miller and Lyles, do so well it would improve matters if they were given more to do. However, "Great Day" is not the kind of show over which to become acutely critical. It is a big and melodious show, with enough comedy to provide diversion, if not to strain the ribs, and the Jubilee singers are a real treat.

W.V. WATER FROST DANCE BAND 'TV Tl Menjou comedy, "Serenade," or, for that matter, by a dozen other Menjou vehicles of the past (it is that familiar), the star Impersonates a concert pianist among whose premier assets is his popularity with the ladies. Now, this Paul Du Remy had a wife, a charming, understanding, loving, competent wlfe but somehow Paul thought he could do with a little change. So, indiscreetly enough even for a concert star, Monsieur Du Remy retired to his lodge in the Adirondacks In the company of a blond lady who though Paul's music was "simplee dee-vine." What follows at the lodge deserves to fall gracefully into the class of what the dramatic critics like to call high comedy. Still, though, these incidents are familiar enough to rob them of a certain freshness.

You are shown how Mrs. Du Remy arrives at the cabin accompanied by the blond lady's irritated husband; how, after the customary complications, the musician goes back to his competent and understanding wife, and how, after all, the foolish blond morsel decides that her own husband Is the man she has always loved. In spite ot the rather ordinary tone of these events, however, it is Menjou's smooth, subtle and always pleasing characterization of the erring musician which manages to inject a certain sparkle into the proceedings. Victor Schertzinger, too, has succeeded in punctuating his direction of the piece with a number of those refreshing little touches which provide crackling little episodes in a story, no matter how dull its pattern. Not that "Fashions in Love" ever threatens to become a dull story.

I am simply trying to point out here that the Individual incidents are far more engaging than the narrative as a whole.
