"The Idlo. Rich", boasts a not- able cast headed by Conrad Nagel, Bessie Loye, and Leila Hyams. Others in the production are Robert Ober, Kenneth Gibson, James Neill, and Edythe Chapman.

NEW SONGS!

Look out for several new song bits!

They will be sang, played, and danced to in "Puttin' on the Ritz," the United Artists all-dialogue musical extrava"anza starring Harry Richman, the attraction at the Queen's Theatre on Sunday.

Several of the songs were written especially for the picture by Irving Berlin, who fashioned them with the style and delivery of the versatile Richman in mind.

Richman sings all of them, the orchestra of the theatre in which Richman, as the principal character, makes his first hit, will lay them, and an especially selected and train- ed chorus will dance to their strains.

"Puttin' on the Ritz" is an ori- |ginal story by. John W. Considine, jon, and was directed by Edward Slaman.
