Whereas the success of the Dead Enders has been founded on gut- ter-grown wisecracks, juvenile rowdyism depicting in graphic style America's forgotten boys the tenement tougha, "The Dead End Kids On Dress Parade" is a Light, gay picture showing the Dead End Kids enjoying life as a model group of American youths at a military academy-bringing fun galore for the fans and thelp biggest hit for them.

There is a chance that Tallulah Bankhead, one of America's great-'
est stage. stars, will return to the screen to play the leading role.in "Miss Susie Stagle's" the story of a boarding house run by a wise spinster lady.
Miss Bankhead last appeared on the screenin *Forsaking All |Others" in 1833. Back in those days the played mainly glitter [roles, but lately she has turned to character portrayals and Holly- wood feels the time is now ripe for her return to celluloid She will be an acquisition to the screet.
