for our boro to win tbs seal

hearts.
Tbs east includss Eddie Quillan,

Grant Mitchell, and Lucien Uttlo-
field.
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
at the Palace: “The Gay Divorcee.
Fred Astaire proves that be h
still tbs foremost hoofer in the
country, and does it in a manner
that gets you down with admira
tion, and, of course. Ginger Rog
ers will f«t more than her share
of tbs attention. Although she is
not artistically Astaire’s equal in
dancing, she holds her own and
provides good entertainment in
all the comedy moments. She nasn’t
the polished skill of her partner,
but she can really do the modern
“ha-cha” type of dancing which ap
peals more to the opposite sex. Tbs
kit dance of this screen musical
Is “The Continental,’* a haunting
and tricky tune which doesn’t quite
possess the lingering appeal of the
'■Carioca," which the same teai
danced in “Flying Down to Rio.
The picture doesn’t have much plot,
but a musical never has, and no one
will mind that it doesn’t. Ginger
Rogers is the fiery “Mimi” who is
married but not happy. She plans
to get a divorce by the co-respon
dent route, and Astaire is innocent
ly taken for the party with whom
she is to have the affair. This si
tuation provides a lead up to the
dances.
The cast includes Ginger Rogers,
Fred Astaire, Alice Brsdy, and
Edward Everett Horton.
Preview Saturday night, Sunday,
and Monday at the Palace: “Grid
iron Flash.”.
Now that the football season is
in full swing, w# will havs our
yearly flood of football pictures.
“Gridiron Flash” is ths first of
the lot Eddie Quillan plays the
part of ths tough young squirt
who is pardoned from prison so
that he can play on a college foot-
Tuesdsy end Wednesday at the
Palace: "Ready for Leva.”
Weakly plotted! It seems to
Just another story of the nice lit
tle girl who is tired of her
itful life and wants action.
She rune away from school a
attempts to Join bar mother in
vaudeville troupe. Mama puniah
her errant daughter by sending bar
to visit her aunt ‘way back la the
sticks* in a little teem by ths. as ess
of Chetwattte Falls. Be ths young
I beautiful girl esnsss to
strange email town and gets her
self gossiped about by the Jealous
i wives. Ths gossip, in this
case, leads to the girl’s expulsion
•nd to an old-fs^hioncd ducking,
which takes place at a sole
picnic. Ida Lupine is cap
enough in this 'ijnlc, though it is
never very interesti^r.
Richard Arlan, a capable meter
who deserves much better parts
than have been given him lately,
plays .the part of the small-town
newspaperman who defends h
The dialogue is stiff, the story is
aged, and the characterizations
could be much better.
Ids Lupino, Richard Arlan, and
Marjorie Rambeau play the lend
ing parts.

Friday night at the Assembly
Hall: "Born to be Bad."
Loretta VaunR is the bold, bad,
young thing that began bad and
ended bad. She happens to be one
of those ladies that the "Purity
League” is supposed to censor,
but this one seems to have gotten
by somehow. It is ths same old
plot, but its face has been lifted
so much that you wont recognize
it at first Our heroins is engaged
in the very engaging Job of model
ing the latest creations for double-
chinned, bald-heeded old boys who
order recklessly in hop* of amor
ous return. She has a small son,
natural product of her environ-
v meat, who is developing into a
truant and a petty thief. Using the
boy as a pawn, she attempts to
mske herself a little easy money
on the side. Instead, she loses ths
boy to an Orphan's Home.. The
man who was to be the victim
adopts the bey. She tries to make
up to him, but he is faithful and
returns home to his wifa. Ths ‘"bad
lady” goes home for a rest
Loretta Young and Cary Grant
are featured.

A not hi'r exaggerated _ musical
•how starring Constance Bennett.
Lota of beautiful girls and enter
taining musk, but nothing excep
tional. The picture was produced
on an exceedingly lavish scale, and
marks Miss Bennett’s debut la
mnscials. Let’s hope she stays out
of them from now on. Ths charac
ter of a stage hot-shot doesn’t
at all fit her. She ahould stick to
her "sophisticated” performances,
since they fit her much more. The
plot has to do with ths ambitious
young wife who wishes to continue
her stag* career, but hdbby 1
ideas of his own. However, luckily,
double with whom ■
worked before her marriage. Her
friend is offered an important role
in a famous show. She takes her
friend's pise* and puts on n good
performance. However, friend hob
by turns out to bs unfaithful and
falls for the cxqqislte thing with
out realising that she is bis wife
He even goes so far as to persuade
her to elope wth him. She is dis
illusioned, but ths day is saved
when the messenger bey comes in
with a note telling her that he
still loves his wife too much to
leave her in tbs lurch. So every
thing ends happily, as it always
does.
