OPERA HOUSE TO-MORROW. “WHITE SHADOWS IN SOUTH SEAS” In the South Seas, where nights are long and languorous, and days eunkissed and climate-blessed, where stately palms stand out invitingly against a heavenly blue sky and exotic flowers grow in riotous profusion, where love comes with the suddenness and fierceness of a tropical hurricane —that is where Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer filmed “White Shadows in the South Seas,” the bewitching screen version of Frederick O'Brien’s romantic story, which will open a season at the Opera House to-night. This picture presents a raro opportunity to make a glamorous motion picture voyage through the South. Sea Islands, the garden spot of the world, where one sees Nature in her most gorgeous and lavishly beautiful moods while following the stupendously dramatic and tragic story. Raquel Torres and Monte Blue play the leading roles, while the supporting cast is composed of thousands of natives. W. S. Van Dyke directed, and has most successfully combined pictorial beauty with an intriguing story, with the result that "White Shadows “in the South Seas” probably ranks as the greatest contribution 'to the art of the silent drama. The box plan is at Miss Blake's sweet shop. FOOTBALL REFEREES. SOUTHERN 'APPOINTMENTS. The following referees were appointed for.
