LIBERTY’S NEW BILL.

“ Keep ’Em Rolling ” and “S»ng and Like It.” “Ilis Greatest Gamble'’ and “Vanity Street ” will be shown finally to-night at . the Liberty Theatre. “ Sing and Like It,” an uproarious comedy starring Zasu Pitts and Edward Everett Horton, will head the outstanding new double-feature programme at the Liberty Theatre to-morrow\ Walter Huston and Frances Dee are the leading players in “ Keep ’Em Rolling.” the drama which will be in support. In “ Sing and Like It,” which is reported to be one of the funniest comedies of the season, the woeful Zasu Pitts .is seen as a would-be prima donna. The plot concerns the efforts of a gangster to boost Zasu Pitts to stardom after she has touched his heart with her singing of a plaintive “ mother ” song. Others assisting in the fun are the laconic Ned Sparks, Nat Pendleton. Horton and Pert Kelton. “ Keep ’Em Rolling ” reveals inti mate glimpses of a soldier’s life, and authenticity is given to the picture by j reason of the fact that most of it was ■ made at Fort Myer, Virginia, the home of the 3rd Cavalry and 16th Field Artillery, whose officers and men took part in its production. It is an adaptation of the “ Saturday Evening Post ” story, “ Rodney,” by Leonard Nason, and tells how a faithful horse conquers a soldier’s rebellious spirit. Walter Huston and Frances Dee are supported by Minna Gombell, Frank Conroy and Robert Shayne.and the picture is said to contain more drama, comedv, romance and pathos than the original magazine story.
