SATURDAY—"FRISCO SALLY LEVY." "Frisco Sally Levy," Mctro-Gold-wyn-Mayer's new picture, featuring the vivacious Sally O'Neil, which will be shown at the Maoriland Pictures on Saturday, is a brilliant comedy romance of family life in a big city. Its scenes are, laid in San Francisco. "Sally" is the storm-centre of a JewishIrish home—her father being Jewish and her mother Irish. Two suitors appear for "Sally's" hand, one a-weal-, thy Jewish broker and the other an Irish traffic policeman. After thrilling intrigue, comedy, pathos and romance, the family solves its problem. Directed by William Beaudine, and portrayed by an usually, brilliant cast, including Charles Delaney, Roy D'Arcy, Kate Price and Tenen Holtz, "Frisco Sally Levy" is a delightfully entertaining picture. MONDAY—"THE DROP KICK." First National's college picture, "The Drop Kick," starring Richard IJarthelmess, will, be presented on Monday. It is a story typical of college life to-day, and with its joys and tragedies, it s thrills and its romance. It is true to life in every way, and the football scenes are thrilling and realistic, as they were made by experienced grid-iron heroes from the University of Southern California and Stanford. Having mastered the boxing game for "The Patent Leather Kid," which he recently made, Barthelmess .now turns his attention to football for this picture, and again proves an. adept at this branch of sport. Playing opposite the star is pretty Barbara Kent. Dorothy Revier, Alberta Vaughn and Hedtia Hopper are also featured in the picture, and the male end of the cast includes James Bradbury, Jr., Brooks Benedict, Eugene Strong, George Pearce and the Ten National College /Stars, recently chosen at 36 universities in a nationwide test for new screen talent by First National Pictures.
