Par's other clip on the Xiong matter quotes Mayor .Walms- ley of New Orleans, foe of the Long regime, who predicts speedy disin- tegration of La.'S current setup Par's burial clip also includes a brief glimpse of the funeral cortege for Dr. Weiss, Fox covers the recent subway cave-In in Berlin, in which 20 men lost their lives, also including Ger- many's arrangements for the Olymp- ics in another reel. Par went after the sea clash involving an English battleship and freighter, k last week's news event, showing the ter- rific damage done the freighter's hull. Most Interesting actual news clip, aside from tlie Long matter, is the Metro scehe of the six juve gunmen confessing to the killing of a subway cashier in Brooklyn. Dis- trict Attorney Geoghan pace.? the confession of one of the kid expertly, and, except foi- one or two give- aways, it looks as though the camera was hidden when the boy told of the shooting. Tagline is 'Crime don't pay.' •Pathe went Into the library tor clip on Constitution Day (Sept. 17) in Philadelphia, Then M6ti:o takes the audience into the Federal • Re-r serve Bank, also a library shot, to tell about the rising tide of pros- perity and showing the money pour- ing into the gov't bank under heavy guard. About the only effective comedy included In the 46 clips on view cur- rently is Pathe's dip on the WCTU convention in Atlantic City, with three of the gals spieling for a return of prohibition. Shots, except for ..the closing rah-rah group, are closeups and the girls are mighty coy. Another laugh is Par's clip on the evolution of men and women's undewvear, this,, along with U's shot of Idaho beauts in fur bathing suits,' iving the bill Its only s.a. : Plenty of library stuff Is Injected by y, whose reels are preponderant on , the current program.

Hills; dirt** track auto racers In Virginia, and a Los Angeles wrestlihg match that's quite hectic. Fox also covered Sir Camp- bell's farewell to America before sailing to take charge of Movietone in Britain, while Metro covered an- other Englishman, Capt. George Easton, breaking 10-mile auto rec- ord at Salt Lake. U covered England's King: and .Queen attending celebration of their third son's engagement, and Metro went to Ethiopia for shots of natives practising modern bayonet warfare. Rest of the reels are either unim- portant or library stuff, Nothing in the reels, with the ex- ception of shots of Mussolini, which brought a few hisses and some ap- plause, excited the capacity house Friday night out. Scho. laOio c<.^,ed by kids to call them .show. Friday National, Louisville Louisville, Sept. 14. Stage show at the National Which opened Friday (13) is titjed 'Radio City Revels,' and packs considerably more -entertainment than the two previous bills, which were decidedly weak. House seems , to be'having a hard time getting into its stride. Bills have lacked name draw and British films are cast with names totally unknown to patrons in this burg. The 24c. admlsh for entire hoHse at all times was expected to fill this 2,400-seater, but so far no dice. • Helen Heller .and George Riley, comedians, head the bill with a rou- tine of chatter • and comedy, with Riley doubling in brass as m.C; Riley first intros house line of 12 girls for this week called the Revelettes. They obviously, take their namfe from the unit title, but just what connection 'Radio City Revels' has with the entertainment presented is impossible to detect. Paul Mall next introduced. Work- ing in blackface, and proves an audience pleaser with his energetic manner and nice singing voice. His standout number is a medley of song titlies in story form, long but ra;thcr cleverly done, after whicii he bows off and makes way for his partner, also in black, who delivered a tap number to good returns. Both then on for a rhythm dance to mild applause. Jack Lavier is introd as present- ing the same act he has done in pic- tures. Appears dressed as vaude en- tertainer of the Gay Nineties i parody of 'Man on Flying Trapeze.' Trapeze then lowered and Lavier garners generous- amount of ]a:ughs while seated on bar of trapeze. Somewhat old-timey, but youngsters seemed to find acre's comedy style amusing. Helen Heller and George Riley ac- count for their share of audience attention with some rapid -fire jgrag- ging. Riloy leaving the stage for Miss Heller, who uncorks a pleasing SQprano voice in 'One Night of Love,' Eddie Prichard has two opportuni- ties to swing into some nice foot- work, which he miakos the most of. Revue comes to an abrupt close, with chorus and Geoi'ge Riley on for bows. Jlunniug timd, -10 minutes. 'Nol Gwyn' (I^A.).. l.'nivor.snl news and a color fshort.
