Show THE CITIZEN 6 & ALL FEATURE BILL AT THE PANTAGES THIS WEEK Six vaudeville acts and feature pictures make up one of the best show bills of the season at the Pantages this week, and the big crowds attending tell the remainder of the story. Our own John Gilbert, supported by Jeanne Eagels and a star cast, take the leads in "Man, Woman and Sin, a picture which is a little different from the ordinary run, and a picture which appears to make a hit, and one which clings more to real life than most of them. The rise of a poor boy from the slums to success in life, his love affair which crushes him, together with many thrills and scenes, truly pictures may lives of the past. The Nathano brothers open the vau-deville with a comedy act on roller skates. They perform several difficult feats, along with their clown acts, and they are a pair of good entertainers. Fred Morton tells stories all the while tearing paper designs, but his harmonica playing gets the crowd go- ing. His imitation of the concertino is nearly perfect, and he also plays sev- popular tunes. Bea Thrift, Chauncey Bornmann, Helen Saville, and Mildred Bornmann a mixed act of graceful danc- ing and singing as "Youth in personof pep and are well received, The costuming is splendid and they give some pretty dances. Belmonts Canary Opera is a winner. Trained canaries imported from all parts of the world, some of the species never having been seen here, are trained to sing in chorus. As Belmont sings and plays the piano, the birds begin to sing and continue to sing as long as the piano is played. The act is entirely new here and is a good one. Noodles Fagan, who hales as the king of jesters, keeps the audience with his puns and jokes, some of which he makes up in picking sub- - jects from the audience. His main support is a big fat girl who can sing and does sing, and between the two the people are given their moneys worth. The bill closes with the Parisian Whirl, presented by Kathryn Lambert, in which Bill Kophs and Vivian Leland are stellar dancers. This is the rea- ture vaudeville act, and it is a classic in dancing, excellent costuming and pretty girls. It is supported by beau-ertiful stage scenery. It is considered one of the big hits on the vaudeville stage, of great merit and greatly predated by the people, There is coming for next week, lian Gish in "Annie Laurie, in one or the biggest screen hits of the year, al ap-prese- Lil-ificati- nt on HIGH CLASS FEATURES AT PARAMOUNT THIS WEEK Rehearsals have been completed and practically all of the last minute touches applied to the 1927 Junior Aid Revue, which is to be presented at the Paramount Theatre on Wednesday, , December 7th, according ot Oliver Alberti, leader of the Capitol Theatre orchestra, who has directed the duction of the charity show. According to Mr. Alberti, the society women who are taking part in the show, have gone into it with even more enthusiasm than professional actresses, and the result should prove it to be the most finished production which the Junior Aid has yet offered Salt Lake Theatre goers. The scene of the revue is laid in the toy window of a department store, and at the magic hour of midnight, the toys in the window came to life to frolic and dance for their brief hour of freedom. Among the featured numbers in the show is the Parisian doll dance, by Jeannette Harris, and Ruth Nib-le- y. A toe dance numbers by Mrs. John McChrystal Wallace and Alex- ander Sokoloff, the latter of the Imperial Russsian ballet. Spark Plug and Felix, the Cat, who were recently seen in one of the Fanchon aud Marcos "Ideas here, will be interpreted by Margaret Nibley, Florence Hammond and Iucy Dean Nibley. There will also be three chorus numbers; the tin soldier chorus, dancing doll chorus, and Russian chorus, that latter having been trained by Louis Bekoff, one of the best known Russian ballet masters in the country, and himself considered the leading exponent of the Russian dance, while he was here recently with one of Fanchon and Marcos Ideas. The Junior Aid Revue will be presented four times on Wednesday and the proceeds will be given to the various charities which the Junior Aid supports. A plea has been made by the officers of the organization to all who can possibly do so, to attend the mat- - THE MOST TALKED OF PLAY IN AMERICA All Next Week Starting with Matinee Sunday Gentlemen Prefer Blondes GET TICKETS NOW!
