There is some sort of story that is secondary to the crudely comic antics of this hammy duo. There fore, I shall not bore the sensitive ears of the readers with the grue some details. There is positively nothing out standing about this flicker. One can only say that it is typically Abbot and Costello. The only redeeming feature of the entire program at the Queen is the extremely humorous cartoon.

An Edward Small Production, Palace Theatre, Bryan. Edward Small again lives up to his reputation as a better than average producer in the current offering at the Palace Theatre. Using an old and overdone Holly wood plot, he weaves it into an enjoyable evening’s entertainment. The plot deals with the efforts of an escaped convict (Dennis O’ Keefe) to even things with the gang leader who put him “up the river” for a slight vacation. On the other hand, the gang leader strives to liquidate O’Keefe, the only one who can spill the prover bial beans. The love interest is supplied by two very attractive partners in crime, Claire Trevor and Marsha Hunt. The story drags on to a blazing, but tragic ending which RE-ELECT J.
