An unknown amateur actress's struggle for fame in Hollywood is the theme of "Talent Scout," at the Grand theatre. Presenting the eternal triangle problem in the form of a rising "star," her enthusiastic manager, and the man who plays opposite her, this film is light fare, with a touch of humour in the form of an irate film company manager who chews his cigar in traditional style. Mr, Donald Woods and Miss Jeanne Madden are in the leading Toles, the former as the "live-wire talent scout" who propel his "find" to a position of fame, and the latter as his protegee, who reveals herself es possessing a pleasing voice. The supporting programme includes "Shanghaied Shipmates," an unusually good "Looney Toon" cartoon.—n.c.w Two British Protests in One Day Tokyo, Sept. 26.
The British Ambassador -to Japan, Sir Robert L. Craigie, protested against the bombing of Nanking and Canton, twice today. Both protests were vigorous and couched in Janguage that the Tokyo Foreign Office cannot fail to understand.
