14 THE INDEX, Saturday, April 21, 1928<br />

T H E S T A G E A N D S C R E E N<br />

A SENSATIONAL event is<br />

announced to take place<br />

at the Davis Theatre<br />

next week, when the famous dramatic<br />

star, Lenore Ulric, will appear<br />

as headline feature of the<br />

Keith-Albee vaudeville program.<br />

The screen presentation will be<br />

-Marie Prevost in "On to Reno."<br />

Recently Miss Ulric appeared<br />

at the Nixon Theatre as star of<br />

"Lulu Belle," and now, at the<br />

conclusion of that tour, is taking<br />

a brief flier into the variety. She<br />

will use as her vehicle a smart<br />

and subtle sketch called "A<br />

Legend of London," written by<br />

the fashionable and sophisti-<br />

LENORE ULRIC<br />

Heads the Davis bill for the week of<br />

April 23.<br />

cated Michael Arlen. This sketch<br />

bodes well to be a record breaker<br />

and a criterion for all vaudeville<br />

dramatic interludes. Written by<br />

Arlen, the settings by James<br />

Reynolds, it sets a very high<br />

standard of dramatic fare. The<br />

cast includes, in support of Miss<br />

Ulric, another Broadway star,<br />

Sidney Blackmer. Not in many<br />

moons have vaudeville patrons<br />

encountered entertainment of<br />

such merit.<br />

Grouped around Miss Ulric in<br />

the bill will be five other Keith-<br />

Albee acts, including Burns and<br />

Wilson, in a comedy and singing<br />

act. "The Untrained Nurse," the<br />

Hong Kong Troupe, sensational<br />

jugglers from the Orient and<br />

others.<br />

STANLEY<br />

A timely revue, "Around the<br />

Clock," will be the colorful stage<br />

presentation at the Stanley Theatre<br />

for the week beginning<br />

Monday, April 23. It is a Henry<br />

W. Crull production, featuring<br />

THE THREE CO-EDS<br />

In "Around the Clock," will be the<br />

stage attraction at the Stanley<br />

next week.<br />

The Three Co-Eds, a trio of attractive<br />

harmony singers; the<br />

Kaufman Girls, a group of eight<br />

nifty unison steppers; Lady<br />

Tsen Mei, soprano soloist; Marty<br />

White, singer of songs, and a<br />

getter of laughs; Morosco and<br />

Daniels, acrobatic and interpretive<br />

dancers from the Winter<br />

Garden; and Mildred LaSalle,<br />

specialty artist.<br />

The screen feature will be<br />

Richard Dix in "Sporting<br />

Goods." It is farce—unadulterated,<br />

hilarious farce. Dix plays<br />

the role of a golf suit salesman,<br />

who finds himself mistaken for a<br />

millionaire, and is forced to<br />

make-good with the girl he<br />

loves. In the supporting cast<br />

are Gertrude Olmsted, who plays<br />

opposite Dix, Ford Sterling, Phil<br />

Strange, Myrtle Stedman, Wade<br />

Boteler, Claude King and Maude<br />

Turner Gordon.<br />

to round out the program.<br />

NIXON<br />

"Wings" enters upon its third<br />

week at the Nixon Theatre Monday<br />

afternoon, April 23. This<br />

screen production depicting with<br />

thrilling realism what the air<br />

aces did during the World War,<br />

provides plenty of exciting entertainment.<br />

The battle scenes<br />

show the wide stretch of the Allied<br />

front and the deadly work<br />

In "Wings," which continues for another<br />

week at the Nixon Theatre.<br />

which the air aces did in bombing<br />

the trenches and lines of the<br />

enemy, swooping down like birds<br />

of prey, scattering regiments<br />

and companies. These scenes<br />

were made to order in an area of<br />

five square miles near Fort Sam<br />

Houston, outside San Antonio,<br />

Texas.<br />

William Wellman, a young<br />

man who served his country in<br />

the Lafayette Squadron during<br />

the war, is responsible for this<br />

epical film of the first air fighting<br />

known to mankind. Sharing<br />

the responsibility with Mr. Wellman<br />

were Lucien Hubbard, Paramount's<br />

featured supervisor,<br />

and John Monk Saunders, the<br />

author of the story. Five thou-<br />
