Dollar-Worded W. C. Fields Comes to Wanoca Theatre Daring Expose Higher Brack eted Politics Featured ( By Robinson By all odds the most hilari ous, laugh-filled achievement of the career of America’s dean of | all comics is "Poppy”, W. C. Fields film which opens Wed nesday at the Wanoca Theatre. The picture is the first to give fans a really satisfying f" quantity of the master’s tom foolery at a sitting. Though the romance of Rochelle Hudson and Richard Cromwell is skill fully woven into a dominant position in the plot, “Poppy” is pure Fields, from start to final fade-out. The comedian appears as a patent medicine vendor who roves from carnival to carnival in the day of their prime, the 1880’s. With him travels his ward, Miss Hudson, an eigh teen-year-old girl who has spent all her life in the glitter of side-show business. Edward G. Robinson’s new est and most dynamic picture, “Bullets or Ballots”, comes to the Wanoca Friday. In this picture Robinson has a role as strong as that of “Little Caesar”, although he is neither crook nor gunman, but one of the coldest and most hard boiled detectives of the | New York police force. Joan Blondell has the leading feminine role, playing opposite Robinson as his sweetheart. While dealing with gangsters f and their political and financial ramifications, the picture is really a story of racketeering run on a scale never dreamed of before, the higher-ups in the game, who never come out from cover, being a banker, a big politician and a wealthy so ciety man. They have the pow er to crush any opposition to their rackets, by which they mulct millions from other bus ness men, until Robinson, as “Detective Johnny Blake”, be comes one of them and exposes the whole scheme. Robert Montgomery again proves his right to stardom as the reckless young prince in “Trouble for Two”, who is des tined to wed a princess for whom he feels neither love nor attraction. Rosalind Russell, in the role of the charming royal lady, plays one of the most able roles of her brilliant young ca reer. COMMUNITY ASSOCIATIONS ARE HELD FOR PROJECTS Raleigh, June 16.—What hap pens when a Resettlement pro ject is completed? This ques * tion was answered today by Homer H. B. Mask, Regional Director of the Resettlement Administration, in response to inquiries which have come to ^his office. The statement gave an indi cation of the ultimate disposi tion planned for more than a score of projects in the region composed of North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Ten nessee and Kentucky. In order to place the pro perty on the tax rolls, and at ^the same time protect the large equity which the government has in the property, the com munities are being conveyed to non-profit community associa {tions which will be responsible for the supervision of the pro perties and for the collection of the sums due from the re sidents”, Director Mask said. “Upon completion of the pro ject and after the selling price and the terms of sale have been estimated and approved these associations will take title to the property thus enabling the property to be taxed in the same way as that in any other community. “The immediate result is to Settle the problem of local tax Ition on federally owned pro jects. With the conveyance of the property to local communi ty organizations the communi . ties will bear their full share iff the state and local taxes from which come the support of education and other public ir services”. The Regional official explain ed that arrangements now un ? der way for the transfer and 1 sale of twelve completed reset tlement communities, with the eventful ownership to be vest ed in the individuals, are set ting the pattern for the dispo-j oh of other rural resettle-, VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL BROUGHT TO CONCLUSION Rose Hill, June 16.—Com mencement exercises for the Baptist Daily Vacation Bible School were held at the church ■Friday evening.
