Ma Broska has seen young, college men at the homes of the niinepopcr ators where she goes to do day's worfl. Their natty clothes, their unhardened hands, their careless jaun ty ways, even their speech so differ ent from that she has been used to hear, fill her with the determination to send her son to college whether he will or not. Frank Broska, played , by Jason Robards, is a boy who likes his job. He loves a village girl, and has a pal,' a miner; too, rough-and-ready as himself but Ma' wills ' that all this be changed. She, learns when almost too late, that education is not neces sarily of schools and . that it takes more than what she calls ''white flannels" to make a gentleman." "White Flannels" should be seen by all parents, but. especially by those whose danger is the unselfishness which is so apt to breed its opposite in the children, for whom these same parents would often be willing to offer their lives. The picture was directed by Lloyd Bacon, who, had previously directed Miss Dresser and Mr. Robards in "Broken Hearts of Hollywood." The heroine, a girl of the coal mine town, is played by Virginia Brownp Fairc. Others in the cast include Warner Richmond, George Nichols and Bruce Benedict.

Meidian, hero, of many a romance, drama and comedy, enters a new' field with his current Para mount production, "Blind Alleys," ar riving at . the Idle Hourt theatre Wednesday and Thursday. The new vehicle can only be described in one way. It is melodrama fast, thrilling, very impossible but and this is more important superbly entertaining ! "Blind Alleys" presents .Tom as a marine 'Captain, newly married to a charming Cuba .senorita. On the first night of their honeymoon they arrive in New York ' and proceed to buck up against a serios of events which separate them. Meighan is struck bv an auto and removed to a hospital and (irefa Nissen. his wife, finds herself embroiled with .a gang of des- nerate thues.' Tom eventually leaves the hospital, only to fall unconscious on the street and wake up. in a boarding house h a beautiful woman. Evelyn Brent; nursing him back to health. What happens when Greta is resuced and finds her husband in his new surroundings provide the picture with many more dramatic situations than could possibly be adequately described at this time. . . . . Frank Tuttle, director of "Lovers in Quarantine" and "A Kiss in the Dark," is said to have created for the. screen exactly what Owen Davis visualized when writing the story. Emmet Crdzicr prepared the screen play. - Shrieks of Frenzied Fun in "Finger Prints1' T miico yrjTpnda is HOW. in reality, what she has been in the hearts oi moving picture "audiences tor. many a long day--a star.
