Can doctors be devoted to h ith !! their wives or yielding to the charms' of pretty patients? With WARNER JOAN BAXTER BENNETT «"Doctors' Wives" at Regent Commencing on Monday Next to religion, health is the most universal topic of conversa- tion. It concerns both old and young, embraces the latest findings of science and the age old remed- les of the race, and includes spiritual as well as physical and mental sicknesses. Therein lies the wide appeal of "Doctors' Wives," Fox drama of misunderstood marriage in the medical profession which comes to the Regent theatre on Monday for a two day engage- ment with Warner Baxter and Joan Bennett co-featured. The drama of "Doctors' Wives" is brought about when the most promising young surgeon in New York marries the daughter of a doctor, a girl whom he thought would instinctively understand his desire to devote his time, energy and talents to the relief of suffering. Instead, suspicions sown in her mind by her mother, and other doctors' wives, soon convert the sweet young bride into a jealous counterpart of the legions who believe that "the patient is the common enemy of every doctor's wife." Joan Bennett is sald to be sepecially appealing, both as the idealistic, dreaming young bride, and the tempestuously emotional wife who rung the gamut of ex- REGENT Programs Next Week Monday and Tuesday----- Warner Baxter and Joan Benmett in 'Doctors' Wives."

Co-starred with Clive Brook, the suave English actor, Miss Bankhead comes to the screen already a star. Born in the United . States, the daughter of Congressman William B. Bank- head of' Alabama, niece of U.S. Senator-elect John H, Bankhead, the vivacious actress left the United States for England after a brief but successful career on the American stage. Eight years in London brought her such fame th t numerous offers to appear in motion pictures were made to her. Recently she accepted Para- mounts offer, and returned to this country to make her motion picture bow in "Tarnished Lady." The story of "Tarnished Lady," written by the famous humorist and novelist, Donald Ogden Stewart, who prepared the dialog for "Laughter," {s a smart and intriguing one, suited to the dis- tinguished personality of its fem_ inine star. An impoverished member of New York's "400," Miss Bankhead marries Brook for his money, although frankly in love with a : struggling ' young writer, Alexander Kirkland. Three months of marriage fails to wipe out her affection for Kirkland, and she decides to tell Brook everything and end their marriage. Brook, facing bank. ruptcy, believes she is leaving him to avold the consequences of his financial crash, and is bitter about it. Kirkland, meanwhile, has found another attraction, Disillusioned, cut off from her husband, Miss Bankhead 1s thrown on her own resources. Her efforts to support herself On the stage of The New Martin Theatre next Wednesday night once only at 8.15 p.m. are hampered by inexperience. Osgood Perkins, a mutual friend of Brook and Miss Bankhead, tries to bring them together, but Brook is already planning to marry an heiress to save himself from financial ruin. On the brink of this mariiage, he meets his wife, and realizes that 'the step he is about to take parallels her earlier move. They both ask for- giveness and begin again. The dialog of "Tarnished Lady" sparkles with Stewart's clever wit.

New Martin Theatre Presents "Ihe Iron Man" The most sensational rise to a stardom during the past year has been that of Lew Ayres, at the New Martin theatre where he is starring in "Iron Man," Universal's stirring picturization of W. R. Burnett's popular novel, One picture made him an idol in the eyes of film goers throughout the world, The picture was "All (Quiet on the Western Front." To- day he is regarded as the "find" of the year, and his fan mail runs into the thousands of letters per month, Not since John Gilbert burst into stardom with "The Big Parade" has there been such a sensation in Hol- lywood. Young Ayres received his high school education in San Diero, Calit., and after a year at the Uni- versity of Arizona he joined Henry Halstead's Beverly-Wilshire orch- estra, playing the banjo. He was noticed by film producers, and giv- en a small six months' contract by Pathe, but played in only one pic- ture, that being a small bit. After Hollywood had been com- bined by Universal, he was chosen for the lead in "All Quiet," and signed to a five year contract. He has lived up to every predic- tion made for him. He received applause in "Common Clay," and was a sensation in "The Doorway to Hell." Following "East Is West," "Many A Slip" and "Up For Mur- der," Carl Laemmle; Jr. in charge of production, promoted Ayres to full fledged stardom. "Iron Man" is a stirring love story of the prize ring, with Jean Harlow, Robert Armstrong, Eddie Dillon and John Miljan in the cast. Tod Browning directed, Some so-called open minds should be closed for repairs. Most men's idea of a living wage is about two dollars more than they get.
