THIS SATURDAY

"WHY SAILORS GO WRONG."

The exteriors on the yacht in Fox Films' "Why Sailors Go Wrong" were taken on a palatial craft off the coast at San Diego about twenty-five miles from

shore,

To make it more realistic an unscheduled storm arose and the entire company,, members of which had not yet acquired their sea legs, was tossed about unmercifully. However, despite the fact that some of them were not the best sailors and suffered from sea sickness, work went on just the same. This made it a truly wild adventure on a tossing

vessel,

By the time work was finished, however, all members of the east and crew w<M-e hardened sailors. The boat could plunge and roll without bothering anyone much. In fact, when they had to leave it was with many regrets that they had to do it just about the time they begun to enjoy their maritime experience.

Ted MeNamara and Sammy Gohen are the two comedians featured in "Why Sailors Go Wrong," and the situation of the storm only helped them in their unusual antics even if not under the most pleasant circumstances.

Others in the cast are Sally Phipps and Nick Stuart in the romantic leads. Jack Penniek, Oarl Miller and E. H, Calvert play important roles in this picture.

WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY and FRIDAY. 1' SECOND TO NONE. ''

Although, not produced as propaganda for the Navy, the Britannia Films ' production, "Second to None," presents many scenes illustrative of the -work of the Senior Service apart irom an intriguing story. But although the scenes taken on board the warships will prove wonderfully interesting, it is certain that the scenes taken in the Royal Naval Training establishment at Shotley, by permission of the Admiralty, will be received with rounds of applause.

To see hundreds of the youngsters who are training for the Navy swarming up the rigging of a huge mast and manning the yards, with one, the hero of the story balanced precariously on one leg at the very top, is to feel that the traditions of the Senior Service is being ably eaTried on by young Britain.

'' Second to None," a Paramount British release, is the story of a newspaper boy whose ambition is to join the Navy and rise to commissioned rank, that he may win the hand of his former playmate. Moore Marriott, Benita-Hume and lan Fleming have the leading roles and the production was directed by Jack Raymond, under the personal supervision of Miss Dinah.Shurey. "LADY RAFFLES." There are many surprises in "Lady Raffles," the Columbia production featuring Estelle Taylor. The plot revolves around a skillful young woman, who has won the title which gives the picture its name. The awekening of love suddenly terminates her career but not until the girl through strategy and skill brings a dangerous pair of jewel thieves to justice. The story is set against a background of society life and the plot development invokes many unexpected situations which hold the interest and create aa element of breathless suspense.

MONDAY ONLY. "THE PATSY."

The most versatile girl in pictures who is never afraid to wear old clothes, to hi generally different, that's Marion Davies, whose Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer pictures have won her international fame.

In "The Patsy," her latest picture, Miss Davies has th efunniest role of her career in. her most interesting picture. It's a domestic landslide of laughs —a "Bless our 'appy 'ome" type of picture—that strikes too deeply into tie heart not to be thoroghly enjoyed.

A spendid cast supports Marion Davies and King Vidor, who directed "The Big Parade" also made "The Patsy."
