V n FIRMAGEJTHEATRE Friday and Saturday With Richard Arlen heading a notable cast, comedy, drama and romance will romp across the screen at the Firmage theatre Friday and Saturday in the picture, pic-ture, "Three Live Ghosts". The story concerns the adventures of three soldiers who escape from a German prison camp and return to London, to find themselves ofically "dead". For varying reasons rea-sons they decide to remain so, and ! their escapades provide moments I of hilarious comedy, thrilling excitement ex-citement and tender romance. Those in the cast are Cecilia Parker, Par-ker, Beryle Mercer, Charles Mc-Naughton, Mc-Naughton, Claude Allister, Dudley-Diggers, Dudley-Diggers, Nydia Westman, Jonathan Jona-than Hale and Lillian Cooper. Also to be shown these nights will be a comedy and a newsreel. Sunday and Monday Barbara Stanwyck of the sorrowful sor-rowful eyes and long-suffering roles surprises and delights people by revealing herself as a topnotch comedienne in "Red Salute," and Robert Young, who appears opposite, op-posite, comes in a close second in this laugh-loaded new Reliance comedy. A crisp sparkling piece of entertainment crowded with "names", "Red Salute" tells the fresh engaging story of Drue Van Allen, a pretty headstrong young co-ed whose socially prominent family is embarrassed by the publicity pub-licity attended on her madcap escapades. esca-pades. When- she is expelled from college suspected of radical leanings, lean-ings, acquired from association with one Arner with whom she fancies herself in love, her family persuades her to leave the country. Drue settles in a Mexican town just across the border. When Anrer sends for her, she inveigles Jeff, a rough and ready young-buck young-buck private on leave, into driving her across. The hilarious adventures adven-tures and difficulties they encounter en-counter in the course of their wild ride keep the story spinning along at a brisk pace, and by the time they get home, Drue has had her lesson and realizes her devotion to Uncle Sam and her love for Buck Private Jeff. Hardie Albright, Rut'.i Donnelly, Cliff Edwards and Gordon Jones are in the excellent cast. There will also be a comedy and Universal news reel these nights. Tuesday and Wednesday Affording one of the rarest treats ever brought to the screen, Ginger Roger's initial solo starring star-ring picture, "In Person," gives, incidentally, a view of the inside workings of a motion picture studio. This picture conies to the Firmage theatre Tuesday and Wednesday. "In Person" is in no wise a back-stage yarn. As a temperamental screen star seeking to escape the nervous tension, induced in-duced by the -annoyance of autograph auto-graph hunters, she retreats to a mountain lodge owned by George Brent. As his guest she recovers and becomes a likeable body when Brent disciplines her. However, in her first personal appearance she reverts to type. She hurriedly returns re-turns to the studio which offers an intimate glimpse of picture making mak-ing . Then comes a climax with a load of complications and humor. Chapter 8 of the "Adventures of Frank Merriwell" and an "Our Gang" comedy will be shown these nights. Thursday "Another Face", which comes to the Firmage theatre Thursday only, is a fast-running, tensely exciting ex-citing melodrama, marked by lavish comedy, and played to the hilt by a highly capable cast. Brian Donlevy as a New York gangster, characterized by twisted features, has a plastic surgeon mold his face into a handsome mask to conceal his identity. Obeying Obey-ing his swaggering vanity, he i migrates to Hollywood and crashes I the films, believing that none j knows his identity. The story is swept into thrilling action and novel comedy when a nurse, who has escaped to Hollywood with the : secret, blurts it out to the hair- brained studio publicity director, i played by Wallace Ford. Ever asphing for headlines, the press 'agent plans to capture the killer in front of grinding cameras, jeopardizing his own life and that of his sweetheart, Phyllis Brooks, who stare in the film within a film. But all does not proceed according ac-cording to the scenario, and complications com-plications mount on complications to the audience's surprise, amazement amaze-ment and delightful entertainment. Others in the cast are Molly La-mont, La-mont, Erik Rhodes, Addison Randal! Ran-dal! and Paul Stanton. A "March of Time" and an "Easy Aces" shorts will also be shown Thursday. I ers and feeders of hogs will notj rush into the business through being attracted by higher price levels as doubtless that would mean financial loss to them and have a depressing effect upon the market. It is to be hoped that the production of hogs may remain in the hands of men trained in that j line of work and that an eye will be kept towards quality rather j than quantity. j I |
