EVERYBODY’S
•‘A HARP IN HOCK” It is a rare pawnbroker who will buy a steamship ticket for an Irishman he never saw; but that is what Rudolph Schildkraut, as Isaac Abrams, a Jewish pawnshop owner, does in “A Harp in Hock.” Junior Coglilun is the ready-fisted and freckled-faced lad from Erin that Abrams provides transportation for. To his surprise, after the boy reaches the city, he is adopted and brought to the pawnshop. Then he begins to gain a liberal education in the difficult art of running a pawnshop in the slums. The picture, “A Harp in Hock,” is now being shown at the Everybody’s Theatre. Lilian Harvey is a vivacious little lady who spares no efforts to induce her audience to share her exuberant spirits. Both as Lola the dancer, and as Mazie, she is charming, and uses her beauty and wiles to their fullest extent. As Lola she is a saucy minx, and as Mazie, a demure schoolgirl, but sho manages to combine the two very attractively in “Crazy Mazie,” which is also being shown at the Everybody's.
