"Lady For A Day," the featured picture at the University, blazons forth its moderate virtues through the medium of a cast of minor stars and just plain minors. Its plot is one of the usual far-fetched affairs, which are so extremely improbable that one is willing to over-look analysis and confine himself to a sort of comatose reception of stimuli: it deals with the harrowing experiences of old Apple Annie, who, poverty-stricken in New York, has been keeping her daughter in Europe in the belief that her mother is a fancy lady, of the haut monde. It goes without saying that the daughter has to come home, suddenly: she is about to be married, and the old Count wants to look over mama before he exudes the paternal blessing. By dint of the efforts of a sentimental gambler, a role which, to speak euphemistically, is interpreted by Warren William, the old apple seller is ensconsced in an apartment, and given quite an air of savoir faire and other little spices. The lunacy winds up in a general turmoil, in the midst of which the Governor, the Mayor, and other figures come to old Annie's reception, and fill the heart of the Count with that delicate sentiment of satiated snobbishness which is needed before he give the consent. The young couple, presumably, are married; the Count goes back to the villa; the gambler is in right with the shots; but what became of the apple woman, no one ever knew.

"Turn Back the Clock," the other movie, shows Lee Tracy and very little else. The plot I shan't attempt to explain; it involves something about a dream, which takes the place of the real life of the characters, and something about a man who goes back and lives his life over, thereby being able to predict stock crashes and do other uncommon things. It is lively enough to watch, at least if you like the great Tracy; and the antics of snake-hips Karen Morley should entertain those renegades who won't listen to Doctor Worcester.
