NEW REGENT

“ROLLED STOCKINGS” “Rolled Stockings” is ' delighting audiences this week at the New Regent Theatre. Paramount’s latest “youth picture” concerns itself with two brothers, who go to college and fall in love with the same. girl. A peculiar change takes place. The serious youth i becomes a philanderer while his jazzy j brother gradually discovers that his life has been a series of errors, and he de- j termines to change his ways. What i happens on the night preceding the . annual boat race will have to be seen 1 as it’s much too exciting to record on paper. James Hall, Louise Brooks, Richard Arlen, Nancy Phillips and El Brendel —the Paramount Junior Stars, are featured. Richard Rosson directed. The supporting fllms include a comedy, scenic film and tire latest ga.zettes. Special selections from Chopin have been arranged by Mr. Maurice Guttridge and are played by the Regent Operatic Orchestra during the showing of the great composer’s life story on the screen. Eddie Horton plays new numbers on the organ, and Fred Curran, the English comedian, in his second week, provides new numbers. Winners of the silk stocking competition held last evening were:—First prize, Mr. A. Cavaiye, 2 Tutanekai Road, Grey Lynn, who selected the whole six correctly. The second and third prizes were divided between G. McKain, 39 Liverpool Street, and Mrs. V. E. Pisarenko, 10 Kervai Terrace, Epsom, and Raymond P.
