THE SHOW OF SHOWS
-x
Miss Beatrice Lillie, in private
life, Lady Peel, hilariously dom
nates one of the many effective
spots in “Show of Shows,” the
Warner Bros, and Vitaphone su
per-revue which comes to the
Coliseum, Sunday and Monday.
Miss Lillie’s clowning is so u
jnique that it can be compared
j to nothing else. The element of
jthe unexpected plays a big part
! |in the art of Beatrice Lillie; the
1 sudden turn from what promises
| to be pathos.
! Four of the world’s most fa
j <mous laugh makers, Beatrice Lil
| | lie with Fay, Hamilton and Fa
i zenda combine their comedy tal
! ents to make a unique quartette
tin the greatest undertaking in
the history of the motion pic
ture industry in which scores up
on score of outstanding stage
and screen stars appear

‘MOTHER’S BOY
—i
Morton Downy, who will be re
membered by Petersburg show
goers as the golden voiced Irish
tenor in “Lucky in Love” is com
ing to the Coliseum again Sat
urday, this time in a melodrama
of exceptional beauty and charm
a story of humble life in the ten
ement district of lower East
Side New York. He was his
mother’s boy and he sacrificed »!•
Y
his future for love of her—only y
to win. It is tremendouslyq ap- ‘j*
pealing story of a mother’s abid- *!*
ing love for her son, who strives >*
against odds for fortune as a X
singer. He shouldered his broth- *£
er’s crime but his mother had £
faith in him, while the girl he
loved—you must see the picture. $
It is one that will linger in your
memory.
Beryl Mercer (who in private .j,
,life is known as Mrs. Holmes Her X.
bert) plays a perfect mother. |
Helen Chandler is the leading
woman while Barbara Bennet •(<
plays the part of a fashrionable
society woman whose interest in j
him advances his ambition. *jj
%
In this intense draam of hu- ♦$
man hearts, Downey sings many
songs you will not soon forget. •)

UNIVERSITY WITH THUMBS j
AT NOSE FOR ALASKA j
— j
Despite the criticism aroused
at the time the reecnt abolition j
of the Colegle of Fisheries at the j
University of Washington has j
forged a stronger link between ;j
the United States Bureau of j
Fisheries and the University, 3
according to officials of both in- ■
stitutions. ' ;
j Technological subjects in fish
eries as well as several thou
sand dollars worth of machinery
[incidental to the fish industry
| were removed from the Univers
ity as being inconsistent with a
university curriculum, and a new
department of fisheries is to oe
established next fall which will
stress the scientific oceano
graphic study.
Now comes the United States
government with an appropria
tion to build a modern Bureau of
Fisheries research laboratory on
the shore of the Lake Washing
ton Canal just off the Univers
ity Campus, where students may
work and study.
