Had all the authors in America deliberately conspired to write a play for Lowell Sherman, necurling to Ålan Noncoe, character actor, they could not have produced a more appropriate one than Radio Pictures' "The Royal Bed," adopted from Robert E. Sher- wood's stage succes "The Queen's Husband."

"Secrets of A Secretary."
A night club without gangsters is the achievement of George Abbott, director of "Secrets of a Secretary" which is now showing at the King's Theatre.
Many of those who have visited New York and have been taken to night clubs or speakeasies have expressed disappointment upon finding that the night rendezvous was not what they expected it to be. The trouble of course was the old movie method of making a night club look like

Shootinge, stabbings and rough-house brawl never failed to tako place amid the wails scampering scared and distraught members of the upper crust who had been sitting calmly all this while at the various tables.
