THE THEATRES
To-day's most vivid headlines from Washington from the engrossing nub. Ject matter of "Gabriel Over the White House," new Cosmopolitan- Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production which opens to-morrow at the Queen's Thentre, and bide fair to be one of the greatest sensations in screen history.
The anonymous soyel on which the
carly in picture in based is already a literary Aсnisation.. Appearing February, it immediately leaped into the best-sellor élass. As the first photopiny which has taken a United States President through the turmoil et modern days, it is considered to bo the most daring motion picture over produced,
The story starts showing Hammond as a fovial, bhuffing politician full of platitudes and a facility for avoiding F serious action. After direct automobile accident, a new... harder Hammond emerges, a President who forces the resignation of an inept cabinet, who makes Congress, give him the power of a dictator, whe and softa the problems of faces Jirarketeering, unemployment
European debts.
"The White' Sinter,"
and
A new pair of screen lovers, Helen Hayes and Clark Gable, made their uppearance last night to the Queen's Theatre in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's: much-discussed talking-picture ver- Rion of the undying F. Marien Craw- ford ronance, "The White Sister." The combination is a particularly strong one., Under the careful direct- tion of Victor Fleming they do a beau tiful job of one of the most stirring love stories in literary history.
The story of the aristocratic, Italian girl who falls in love with a soldier on the eve of her marriage to a 'man of her father's choice gives both Miss Hayes and Gable every oppor tunity for romantic portrayals of the the first order. Whether it be in fighter scenes of the carnival at the mart of the picture or at the drama- tic moment when the soldier whom the heroine believed to be dead ro turns very much alive, the work of the two stars is at all times touching and effective,
"Infernal Machine"

Chester Morris and Genevieve Tolin while whare the featured honours, others in the strong supporting east include Victor Jory Elizabeth Pat. Van terson, James Bell, Edward Sloan, Arthur Hohl, Josephine Whit tell, J. Carroll Nalah and Mischa Auer,
