ABERDEEN The school year, insofar as the res idents of Pinebluff are concerned, reached its climax Wednesday night with the closing exercises of the graded school which were held in the assembly hall. . The two grades which use the old Pinebluff school building have been under the teaching care of Mrs. Fred Monroe and the excellence of the per formance Wednesday night gave tes timony to the really remarkable work which she has done in the past two years, even though hampered by poor | facilities. The main performance of the even ing was the rendition of a children’s play which centered around the “Story of the Wishing Well” and the work of the good fairies. Every child taking part is deserv ing of a commendation for the way in which he or she played the parts and recited. The enunciation was per fect and each child could be clearly understood in every part of the crowd ed hall. It goes without saying th?it both parents and children love the j teacher and hope for her return anoth er year.

At Southern Pines Convinced that the sparkling per sonality displayed by Clara Bow’ in her long screen career as America’s favorite flapper had deprived the mo tion picture public of the deeper tal- ients of that popular actress, Para- I mount executives have planned a se- |ries of emotional roles for the red- I headed actress. Her first dramatic ipart in “Kick In,” hailed as a new j revelation of Bow talents, marks her debut is serious drama. “Kick In” which is the attraction at the South ern Pines Theatre this Thursday, Fri day and Saturday, ^ was adapted' for I the talking screen from the famous j Willard Mack stage success of the [ same name. In it, the “It” girl has an j exacting role which tests her capac- I ity for emotional portrayal to an un- j usual degree. In love with an ex convict hounded by the police. Miss Bow is called upon to portray a character whose feelings range over the emotional spectrum with light ning-like rapidity. The supporting j cast as well as the story of “Kick I In” was selected with great care to give Miss Bow every possible advan tage in her first dramatic part. Regis Toomey, recently seen in George Ban croft’s “Scandal Sheet,” has the leading male role, a role which, for the first time on the talking screen, gives him a chance to match his su- iperb performance in “Alibi,” his first I sensational success. Wynne Gibson, • recently seen with William Powell in “Man Of The World,” Leslie Fenton, : Donald Crisp and Paul Hurst are also 1 in the cast. I A very amusing comedy along do- imestic lines is “Six Cylinder Love” I from the famous stage play by Wil liam Anthony McGuire, which is the attraction at the Southern Pines I Theatre Monday, Tuesday and Wed nesday. Thoroughly modern in every j line, from the 16-cylinder car which i proves the financial down-fall of the ' newlyweds to the bootlegger who carries his samples on the corks in i his pocket, the production is smart I and snappy with a general appeal. I The story deals with an exceptional- i ly devoted young couple who fail to heed the warning of the neighbor from whom they purchase a high- powered car, thereby acquiring the former owner’s leech-like friends, as well. A new “screen find” makes her first appearance in “Six Cylinder Love,” in the person of Sidney Fox, from the Broadway Stage, who seems I destined to become a popular fav- i orite in a very short time. Miss Fox I is surrounded by an unusually clever i supporting cast, including Edward I Everett Horton, Una Merkal, (of [“Don’t Bet On Women” fame), Wil- i liam Collier, Sr., El Brendel, Bert Friday, Mayis. 1930 Roach and Spencer Tracy. “Six C 1^ der Love” may be highly ■recommend ed at any time as a good blues cure The Aberdeen High School Tenni. team, Ralph Leach and Bill Bowmar will play Salisbury at Salisbury I day, Friday, and Lexington at Lex mgton tomorrow.
