ROUND THE CINEMAS
COLOURED DANCER MAKES FILM DEBUT.
"LOVE IN THE ROUGH.”
Earl (Snake Hips) Tucker, ee- centric Ethiopean dancer, is the cantera man's delight. He useds no p makeup and can be photographed i through an entire dance number with a single change of focus or "frame."
In other words, "Snake Hipa" is so dark of complexion he requires neither paint nor powder for "shad- ing" and presents no delicate light- Ing problem for the boys behind the
cameras.
Still further, "Snake Hips," as his, nickname suggests, had an an usual undulating brand of dancing, neither off the spot upon which he begins his reptilian gyrations or taking any liberties by way of dis- tance to or from the lens. "I jest turns it on and there it is" is Tuc- ker's explanation of his dance.
"Snake Hips" makes his serven debut in Metro-Goldwyn's Mayer's new musical talkic, "Love in the Rough," playing the dancing bell- boy in the "Doing That Thing" number.

BLADE
The weakest part of an ordinary blade is along the centre line. The danger of cracking when beut has, there- fore, always been the limiting factor in so-called "wafer" blades. The patented butterfly piercings of the PROBAK Blade distribute the strain and permit the use of a stouter steel without any fear of cracking. This use of a stouter steel is the first essential step in the production of the blade that cannot be equalled, therefore, the slogan "A stout blade for stiff beards."

"The Love Doctor" is the story
of a young physician who finds him- self in the unique position of pre- scribing for love ailments, and be Hieving that he is immune from these pesky love germs. But all too late he finds that he has been en- anored by his own rules for love.
