This may be done at no additional rail road fare. They will fire the vari ous villages a hasty once over, drinking a mug of ale in the Eng lish hamlet and a stain of bear in Old Deutschland. See Sally Rand wave her fan. Get shuffled about awhile in the Loop, gate at elabo rate windows of the lake-front stores. Take a trip to Milwaukee and go 'through a brewery—ah, what hoptic Joy! See Northwestern, rid* along famous Lakes bo re Drive, sea Little Italy, make a roadhouse, But back to the beginning of the trip again. The Aggie team will I stay with them as far as Indiana- i polis. Then they wfll lay over for a night wOrkout and be in trim for the big battle next night. Be- . sides the large Texas section, a good 8,000 id expected from Tem ple's enrolled 10,000 to appear at the field.

There are already sixty signed up for the trip, and more coming in all along.

Bing Crosby is now the, hotcha boy who gets into a beautiful mess by merely sitting still and letting Miriam Hopkins, a keen little cboras girl, whis into his college career and leave a quite indelible print. The story has the earmarks of a farce comedy with something doing ev ery minute; about the same calibre that Reginald Denny used to play. From a light comedy Hand point, the show is excellent. Probably no more humorous situations have been portrayed, excepting perhaps in a Wodebouae. The story in play form took Broadway by storm. The effects are heightened by Ha new medium, the serw.; Cast: Bing Crosby, Miriam Hop kins. Kitty Carlisle^ and Edward Nugent.

Located at Nsrtk Gate ia SWEET SHOP NO. 2 Sunday and Monday at the Pal ace: “The Richest Girl in the World." She is Miriam Hopkins with the same “poor little rich girl” trouble. She can’t find any one to leva her for herself s - d not her money, so she swaps roles with her secretary. In hopes of finding somebody to fall in love with hqr- for herself. He is Joel McCrea, and he yaws around with the wrong one for a while, but the rich jirl fixes his clock and all comes out lovely. Sophisticated, light at times, and desperate at times— that’s the mood of the show. All acting well done, with Fay Wray taking a minor role. Cast: Miriam Hopkins, Fay Wray, Joel McCrea, and Henry Stephenson. ass] Tuesday and Wednesday at the Palace: ‘The Fountain.” Proving the animkl known as man does have a certain noble spark within him that elevates him to a spiritual superiority. The book-of-the-month ia presented by a master of her art, Ann Harding. She plays the difficult “Julie" won derfully well. “The Fountain” is so forcefully sentimental and pure ly romantic that it seems like the herald of a new age of romanti cism. Our dissiliusioned, sophisti cated ladies, blase metropolitans and animalistic heroes will soon be be as pasae as the Pollyanna glad girl. Eugene O’Neil heralds the new romance era in his play, “Days Without End.” When the atw Maas are finally accepted, the real ar tists can get down to business and put out soma.few things with the old-time soul and taoeh-of-the- master. The creative arts lack a certain something today, ahd the motion pktury industry ia number ed as an art. The dawn of the new romance period will supply that something, and we’ll see somb real beauty before long. Watch and see. *Tbe Fountain” ia the atory of a truly noble-spirited character who did not mind the sacrificing of hife life so that one he loved might be happy. Sounds too simple to be of much interest, you say. It was not meant to merely hold four at tention and amuse you— it was to grab you by the insides and shout at you. It has force, vi tality, and conviction. Perhaps it does get soft once in a while, but ■how me an average persan who doesn’t. It’a sentimentality, its rightous and real. Cast; Ann Harding, Brian Ahern, Paul Lucas, and Jean Hersbolt.
