"ESPIONAGE" AND "WHEN LOVE IS YOUNG." "Espionage," a story with the flavour of to-day's headlines, with Edmund Lowe and Madge Evans in tho leading roles, screens to-night at the Cosy Theatre. This is a narrative that describos the studied movenient of a tuillionaire munitions maker who suddenly vanishes. A ^star reporter is promptly assigned by an American uewSpaper to traee liim, and an opposiJion sheet gives the eamo job to a girl reporter% a star worker herself. These two meet on a speeding express out of Paris, neither aware that tho other is a competing news gatherer. "When Lovo Is Young," the secord t'eature at "the Cosy Theatre, is the screen yersion of Eleanor Griffin's MeCall's Magazine story, "Class Prophecy.' J It preeents Virginia Bruce as \Vanda Werner, a farmer's daughter whose high school classmates can prophecy no better f'uture for her than someday raising the biggest pumpkin for the state fair. Instejad she goes to Broadway under convoy of her unele, acted by Walter Brennan, character actor who has just won the 1936 Academy award for the best masculine supporting role of the year. Miss Bruce becoines a singing star and f'alls in love with Kent Taylor, as a brash young press agent, all of which brings on the lilm's surprise climax.
