"DANCERS IN THE DARK."
Heart-break set! That's what Hollywood called the pretentious dance hall setting erected at the Paramount West Coast studio. On this set 500 extra playera served as atmosphere background for the picture drame Dancers in the Dark," featuring Miriam Hopkins, Jack Oakie, Wil liam Collier, Jr., and Eugene Pallette, now at the King's Theatre.
Work for the so-called "extra," has been hard to get during the past year. This picture gave need- ed employment to many who had once seen better times, held high positions, and some who had even achieved fame in other vocations. Among these were the youthful, and the more hopeful, who regard. ed their extra work in "Dancera in the Dark" as a step toward even- tual screen stardom.
In this crowd was a man who, eight years ago. was a famous director. He directed Bebe Daniels, Gloria Swanson and many other celebrities. Now he is "'atmos- phere."
A former screen star whose name was once in lights and who was known thoroughout the world, a half dozen former featured players once admired by thousands of fans, and several hundred who have been atmosphere players for from one to fifteen years, are meet- ing on common ground at the foot

POINTS LAW'S COURSE.
Nanking, Yesterday. Mr. Lo Wen-kan, the Minister of Justice, has sent a petition to the Executive Yuan opposing the sug- gestions that foreign lawyers be permitted to represent Mr. Neulens in Chinese courta.
Mr. Lo Wen-kan says that ac- cording to law only foreigners without extrality rights can so ap-| pear, except in the Shanghai Dis- trict Court.
Regarding the request for the | transfer of the case, Mr. Lo says that the accused must apply to the Court not to the Ministry of Jus tice.
In conclusion, the Minister of Justice points out that the Case must be dealt with according to
