Jqhn Galsworthy's "Exiled" will be brought ih Broadway by Arch Selwyn, following the opening in New York of Jack Buchanan in "Wake Up and Dream," which is also a Selwyn show. Mr.

If this former Belasco star's performance in the role of the half-caste Eskimo girl in "Frozen Justice" at the Roxy is not the best exhibition of dramatic acting that the talking pictures have ha, it is at least one of the most satisfying demonstrations to be seen on the local screens at the moment. Miss Ulric brings to her first audible screen role a deliberate and modulated style of speech which is excellently suited to microphone purposes. What is more, the star makes a very creditable attempt at singing a song, a plaintive little composition called "The -9. I br-.

Poring o'er the dear old column With a wild, distracted eye, I have wondered, sad and weary. If I should, in fairness, try What I've wanted months to do-Try to WTite a line or two, And wait in trembling and suspense To see if you would print it. Hence: If you wonder, Rian, why You've not heard from me before, I had not ths nerve to try, Thinking I would be a bore. But now that dinner seems to shine Before me like a Neon sign: Tell me now I'll do, and fill A true heart with a great big thrill.

MARJORIE RUMSEY. Right Kind of Man." Helen Morgan or Libby Holman could have molded something more vital out of the available material, perhaps, but let it be said that Miss Ulric at least puts her heart into the song. One could ask for no more. "Frozen Justice" is the work of Owen Davis. The story, while not always as fresh as it might be, concerns the half-caste wife of an Eskimo chieftain who longs for the excitement (and some of the luxuries) of the white man's country.

She permits a scoundrel of a white trader to take her to Alaska, and it is in Nome at the height of the gold rush that next we find Talu as an ontrtninpr In a dance hall. An exciting climax is furnished when the Eskimo husband comes to take Talu home and when, in the ensuing scuffle on a glacier, tlic evil trader meets a terrible end in an Ice jam. Allan Dwan, the director, has been particularly successful in depicting the vivid scenes in the nautch houses of Nome during the gold boom. Through the moving camera one catches detailed glimpses of the interiors of the barrooms and the cabarets with their crowds of prospectors on the loose and fancy ladles in knee-length spangles. Gertrude Astor has a few good moments In these sequences in the role of an alluring hostess known as Moosehlde Kate.

i As the Eskimo chief Robert Frazer appears to be at a disadvantage through miscasting, but he manages to give a vigorous enough interpretation of the part. Other important roles are filled by Louis Wolheim, Ullrich Haupt. El Brendel and Arthur Storw. Tom Patricola provides a few funny moments as a hard-shoe dancer with a jag. "Frozen Justice," to be sure, is no masterpiece.

The story is a bit too stale for that. But Lenore Ulric is superb and there is that stimulating climax on the glacier. Both are worth your attention. Roxy's stage program this week consists of a condensed version of "Faust." an impressive Halloween ballet incident and a brief but excellent prologue to the picture called "Aurora Borealis." Pike Peters in Paris. The screen feature at the Fox Theater this week is "They Had to See Paris," a hilarious Movietone comedy based on Homer Croy's novel of the same name.

Will Rogers makes his talkie debut in this production. He portrays the Oklahoma oil millionaire, Pike Peters, who is dragged off to Paris by an ambitious wife and daughter "to" absorb background." Thq fun starts when simple old Pike, who believes that Claremont, Is the best little town in the world, begins his course cf social training in the company of a brigade of decadent dukes and duchesses hired for the purpose by the determined Mrs. Peters. On the night of the big reception in the Peters' newly leased chateau Pike verv graciously gives his dress suit to a grateful waiter in a boulevard cafe and so perforce must remain in his room. He derives some comfort from his enforced incarceration by getting drunk with the ex-Grand Duke of Russia who.

In a state of inebriation, prefers to be called Mike. Meanwhile, Mrs. Peters Is dotnn her utmost to marry daughter Opal to a count, while Peters Jr. is rap Idly becoming involved with a cute Parisienne of doubtful past. It is then that good old Pike decides to bring his scattered family to its senses by pretending to carry on an affair of his own with a French lady of evening.

But everything comes to a happy end and the Oklahoma Peters presumably take ship for home. Mr. Rogers finds in "They Had to See. Paris" an excellent vehicle for his characteristic witty observations FI.ATBt'SH AT Til PrN AVE. HHOOKLVN KINGS NOW F'l Al INti! JOHN GILBERT in "HIS GLORIOUS NIGHT" 1 1.

His readj humor I lines re of his own making) kept a large audience at the Fox yesterday in constantly high spirits.

The stage presentation at the Fox this week is Fanchon and Marco's revue, "Bows and Beaux." Besides Eddie Peabody, who continues as master of ceremonies, the cast includes Coscia and Verdi, the Gale Quadruplets, the California Warblers, Stephen Moroni, Betty Wayne ana the Harmony Sweethearts. It all amounts to about the jolliest entertainment the Fox Theater has provided in weeks. At the Albee. "Big News," an R-K-O all-talking movie of a murder, featuring Robert Armstrong and Carol Lombard. Presented this week at the Albee Theater.

Except for one brief scene in a speakeasy, all of the action in "Big News," the picture at the Albee Theater this week, takes place in a newspaper office. "Big News" is of the genre of the stage play, "The Front Page," in that it takes an extremely elastic poetic license with newspaper life in order to provide a desired locale for the author's drama. So many liberties are taken, in fact, that the picture is not likely to appeal to workers in newspaper city rooms, but these last are few in the sum total of movie audiences. The audience at the Albee last ni-rht appeared to enjoy the film tremendously. While not worked out with any great artistry, the plot of "Big News" unravels on a novel idea.

The editor-in-chief, interrupted while dictating into a dictagraph by the indlvidu who kills him, leaves behind on the machine's record an acount of the few words exchanged. The murderer does not notice that the machine is running Reproduced later through an amplifier, the record delivers all that is neces- sary to cause the murderer to admit his guilt. Earlier In the story there is con siderable laugh-provoking dialogue between various members of the editorial staff and the star reporter, played by Robert Armstrong. The esthetic element is contributed by Carol Lombard as the star's wife a reporter In her own right on a rival sheet. In the end she sends hubby's big scoop to her own sheet from a phone in the office of hubby paper, provins; conclusively thereby that no rivalry for news exists between newspapers to the complete satisfaction of all who know nothing about it.

However, such liberties with fact aside, "Big News" does seem to go over big at the Albee. It is more difficult to pick f'ws in this week's stage program than in the picture. Charlie Murray, screen comedian, proves quite tunny in the flesh. An adagio team of considerable ability provides a color ful number in "Oriental Sketches." A picturesque silhouette novelty i presented by the "Uyeno Troupe." The program Is rounded out by the teams of "Summers and Hunt" and "Powers and Wallace." There are also several mandolin numbers "De Pace" and the usual news reel. new all-taking picture, was the first negative removed irom me not, vaults of the Consolidated Film T.ahnrntnrlex after the fire.
