. He! is tL-fllm favorite of all kids in whatever part of the world mot- ion pictures are snown, and “taking the children to see Joe E. Brown," has became as pleasant a diversion for grown ups as tnkilw ‘hem W the circus.

Now Joe E. has the kind of a role his fans have always sought for him, and the immortal humor of the late Ring Lardner combined with the comedians own talents, made the Warner Bros.’ nonle run com- edy “Alibi lke“ which opened yes- terday at the Prince Edward Thea- tre, one of the season's smash hits.

Ring Lardner knew IDDIQ about baseball than any author of his time, and his stories of their idio- syncracles and habits made him iamous. “Alibi Ike” was the most popular of them, and all its side splitting fun has been incorporated into the film version.

As the title would imply, Joe E. is a great ball player who always has an alibi, no matter whether he is right; or wrong. This habit not only bronght- him his nickname, but

ost cost him his girl, and led m-‘into -a series of adventures as flirilling as they are ludicrous.

That- Joe is better than ever goes without saying, for he has a better and funnier role than usual, and one in which he is given a real 0p- portunity. The story has more rom- ance than is usual in a Joe E. Brown comedy, the feminine lead being taken by Olivia dc Haviland.

pleased audiences the world over. of a. cultured English gentleman

securing strange flowers from the far corners of the earth, finally meets with a. fabled werewolf in the mountains of far-oil Tibet. The werewolf bites him in the arm, and then he knows, according to the

fable, that he is doomed to turn into a wolf each month during the lull

"wolf flower."

Henry Hull, in the role of this scientist, finds the wolf flower, and brings several specimens back to England. But then comes the diffi- cult task of keeping ‘the flowers alive. They bloom only in the light of the moon, so he constructs a lab- oratory in which he creates artificial moonlight. And then thieves break in and steal his precious blossoms and he is left to the fate of becom- ing a wolf. Frantically he strives to avert the transformation. Frantic- ally he watches the hair grow on his hands and face. He becomes a wolf and runs the darkened streets of Iondon bringing death to the in- nocent and suffering to himself, for the next morning when he rtwakcs he is a man again, but knows what he has done during the dark hours of the night.

Profit Taking Sets In On New York Market

(BY Frank MacMlllen, Associated Press Financial Writer)

NEW YORK, August 1911mm. trial specialties in considerable numbers were able to buck profit- taking pressure in the Stock mar- ket today which held most of the list to small losses or gains. Alcohzls, farm equipment and crpply shares, many of the oils and such industrials as allied Chemical and General Electric, bettered the generally ragged showing of the body of the market. The net result of the day's deal- ings was a small loss as measured by the Associated Press average of 60 stocks. which declined .1 of a point at 48.8. Industrials held even on the average, while the Utilities and rails shaded lower.

Turnover in the Stock Exchange fell considerably behind the two very active sessions at the begin- ning of theweek. Volume was 1.- 940.200 shares. .

Gains of four to five points were registered by Allied Chemical at 165, American Agricultural Chemi- cal at 55 1-2 and Cuban American Sugar at '11, while Goodrich at 53- 1-2. Lambert at 26, Owens-Illinois Glass at 97 and United Carbon at B0 5-8 were eaoh up two to three points. Such recent leaders as U. S. Shel, Amerimn Telephone, Sears Roebuck. Santa Fe. Chrysler and American Can were fractimal?! lower.

In the Canadian list advances of from one to two points were chalked up. McIntyre-Porcupine, Noranda and Hiram Walker. Prac- tlonal ga/lners included Canadian Pacific, Intemational Nickel, Dome Mines. DlStlllefS-BQBIT , Imperial Oil and Masey Harris. Canadian Industrial alcohol, Fold of Canada "B.".

Noted Singer Must Learn To SingAgain

(By John Lear) (Associated Press Stu-ff Writer) (A.P. By Guardian's Spcclll Wire) CHICAGO. Aug. l5—Amellta. Gal li-Curci. internationally famous prlma donna, must learn to sing

all over again.

For l5 years-through the zenith of her brilliant, opera career-the diva gave the world sweet music from a. throat half blocked by goitre. By sheer will power, she forced her beautiful notes on a de- vious detour through her wlndpipe. Today, the tumor-"potatoe," she called it-was gone. Her throat was

cleared of its old problem, and filled with a. new. The successful operation that

removed the 6 1-4 ounce obstruc- tion Saturday doubled the amount of air her trachea can hold. She must now accustom herself to con- trol the increased volume so she can produce the same clear tones. "The ‘re-learning’ lessons begin tomorrow in Henrotln Hospital. where the singer was resting com- fortably today. Her surgeou. Dr. Arnold Kegel, said. “no complica- tions had developed."
