A treat for "movie" lovers is in
store at the University Theater today
when dainty Marguerite Clark will
appear in a Paramount screen version
of "Prunella," which will be remem-
bered as her greatest stage success
some years ago. A story of "Love
in a Dutch Garden" as its authors,
Granville Barker and Laurence Hous-
man, called it, the picture is even more
beautiful than the stage version and
under the expert direction of Maurice
Tourneur, has become a most unus-
ual production. The cast includes
Jules Raucourt, who recently appear-
ed in support of Pauline Frederick in
"La Tosca," as the Pierrot who fa'.ls
in love with Prunella and abducts her
from the prim home of her aunts,
only to desert her later. How he finds
that after all he cannot live without
her and returns to her eld home in
the hope that she too will come, is
skillfully and charmingly shown in
this new Marguerite Clark Paramount
picture.
One of the biggest assortments of
Red Cross materials sent in lately
comes from the branch at Noble, ac-
cording to Red Cross officials. The
