Local sportsmen will be particularly in- terested in the film of the Eastor Monday steeplechases at Fanling, which covers the whole programme of events and gives some good close- ups of the Committee in charge.

"This latter is. exceedingly humorous and depicts. the perplexing situations in which the serious-faced comedian ands himself as the result of being cast adrift with a protty girl on an ocean liner. It is one of Buster Keaton's best efforts and should draw big houses for the remainder of its run.
In addition, there is a clever display by Rems, a trick cyclist, who does some amazing stunts" on the stage.
DRITISH FILM AT THE STAR.
British films in Hongkong are such a rarity that it is refreshing to find the Star Theatre, Kowloon, exhibiting an excellent ploture featuring Fay Compton, the famous, British actress and Jack Buchanan,
The film is called "The Happy Ending" and it is adapted from the Ian Hay story, dealing with the trials of a woman consequent jupon the return of a "long-dead” husband. It is full of interest- ing situations, and has been pro- duced amongst the wonderful banks of the Thames. The ple-
