Her latest production. "The Wild Party," is a vivid, dashing film of unfettered, flaming youth and the scenes are laid in the college campus and class-room of an ex- clusive Institution. It is an all- talking film.

The story on which the play is based was written by Warner Fabian, author of "Flaming Youth" and the adaptation, was written by E. Lloyd Sheldon, assisted by John V. A. Weaver, who wrote the "Americanese" dialogue parts of the production.

William Haines has played every- thing from a football player to a Marine, but his role as an enlisted man on a destroyer is his most comical, as well as one of the best acted, characters he has ever given the screen. It is, incidentally, in At "Navy Blues," his first all-talking picture, commencing on Sunday in the Queen's Theatre, that he gives Alm fans this new angle on his many-bided talent.
