AT CALIFORNIA There are five of the kind of acts that you like at the California for Thursday only, and the popular new California orchestra will also be there at the evening shows only. This week's bill is practically all comedy so you can be assured of many hearty laughs. "Kelly and Jean" offer "The Happy Sap," a clever skit that has been taken from real life. "Hartgrave and Kennedy," "The Midnight Steppers," demonstrate that they are candidates for championship honors in any dancing contest. They present a fast routine of wooden shoe and acrobatic dancing that compares with the best in vaudeville. "The Guy Bartlett Trio," present "Kidding Willie," a comedy, singing and talking set. "Shirley and Sherwood" offer "Wanted a Plainist," another comedy act full of snappy talk and musical moments. "Loray the Gift with the Double Vision," who is known world over as "The Mental Marvel," presents an offering that has entertained and mystified thousands of theatre-goers. It is a spectacular demonstration of physical powers presented in a manner so different from the old time reading acts that there is no room for comparison. One of the season's finest casts was assembled for "Bread." Metro-Goldwyn screen version of the Charles Norris novel, which is coming to the California Theatre for Thursday only. The chief role, that of a girl swayed between a love for business life and that of the home, is played by Mae Busch who has lately appeared in such successes as "Name the Man." "The Christian," "The Shooting at Dan McGrew," and "Broken Barriers." The leading man is Robert Frazer, and other players include Pat O'Malley, Wanda Hawley, Hobart Bosworth, Myrtle Stedman, Ward Crane, Raymond Lee, and Eugenis Besserer. "Bread" was directed by Victor Schertzinger and was adapted to the screen by Albert Lewyn and Coffey. It is a Louis B. Mayer presentation. There are two complete shows of Vaudeville every Thursday night, the first show starting at 7:00 and the last show at 9:15. Tonight is final time for Harold Lloyd in "Hot Water," that screamingly funny comedy that has packed the California to capacity for the last three days. Plain Dealer Classified Ads produce results.
