Loinel Barrymore and Mariam
Hopkins are co-starred in “The Stran
ger’s Return,” which opens Tuesday
Mat the Dream Theatre as a Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer picturization of the
currently popular Phil Stong novel
of rural life, which follows his re
cent best-seller, “State Fair.”
As the 85-year-old patriarch of a
farm founded and pioneered by his
j family, Lionel Barrymore is said to
have one of the most interesting
characterizations of his brilliant car
eer. ,His histronic power is declar
ed by preview critics to have attain
ed new height in the climatic scenes.
Miss Hopkins, among the most
popular feminine stars on the screen
today, is afforded the best oppor
tunity she has had in her role of the
city girl who goes to her grandfath
er's farm and finds there the peace
and contentment she couldn’t get in
the city. Here is a role of exacting
demands and she is said to have ex
ceeded in power the strength writ
i ten into the original part.
' Stong, the author, is quoted as ex
! tremely pleased with the film ver
sion of his book. He assisted on the
adaptaton and served in an advis
ory capacity on details of farm life,
having been raisd$ in the Mid-West.
He is the owner of two farms in
Iowa, the scene of the cqrrent story.
King Vidor, one of the green’s
foremost directorial minds, was in
charge of the production, most of
‘which was filmed on a location rep
resenting the Iowan countryside. An
entire farm was reproduced for an
appropriate setting for the dramatic
action. Vidor, who directed “Big Pa
rade” in the silent days, has such
talking pictures as “The Champ,”
“Street Scene," Bird of Paradise”
and “Cynara” to his credit.
Franchot Tone heads the support
ing cast in the role of the college
bred farmer with whom the city girl
falls in love. The fact he already
has a devoted wife and baby son ser
ves to dramatize a hopeless roman
! tic situation that turns into small
| town scandal.
Stuart Erwin fills a featured spot
as Simon, the corn-lickered farm
hand who knows more than he ap
pears to. This is by far Erwin’s
most important role in many months.

Juneau Plans To
, Pave City Streets
JUNEAU—The Empire in a recent
issue, says: A crew of Federal Emer
gency Relief Work employees, start
ed tearing up Second Street, be
tween Main and Seward, with the
idea of laying the foundation for
paving work that is being planned
for the city of Juneau.
But the men weren’t allowed to
work long, as the paving of the city
streets is to be a Public Works Ad
ministration project, and it was
learned that as the city has been
allotted $103,000 by the PWA for
street paving, men who are employ
ed to work on FERA projects can
not work on municipal projects. For
the same reason FERA men also can
not work on the city streets clearing
away the snow.
Under the existing conditions, the
Territory and the city have com
bined on the FERA projects to re
lieve the city’s unemployment using
this method: The Territory furnish
ing the labor, and the city supply
ing the tools, materials and projects.
Mayor I. Goldstein has made the
announcement of the advisability of
waiting until the frost is out of the
ground in the spring, before begin
ning on the street paving project.
