WONDERFUL PROGRAM
OF AMUSEMENT AT THE
PRINCESS NEXT WEEK
John E. Brown in “A Most Hon
orable Guy” will be the stellar attrac
tion at The Princess Monday and
Tuesday, June 2-3. This is Joe’s
most hilarious hit for he is the king
down of the screen. The story by
Ramon Ruyan, noted sports writer
and short story author, is one of the
most laughable imaginable. Joe E.
has the role of teh gambler who is
as dumb as he is honest, with Hobart
Cavanaugh portraying a pickpocket,
acting as his foil. Beautiful Alice
White has the part of the gold-dig
ging chorus girl whose affections
i vary between the gambler and a mad
doctor with their financial up and
downs. This picture promises to be
j one of the greatest rib-tickling of
the season.
For Wednesday and Thursday,
June 4-5, “Hold That Girl” will be
the headliner with James Dunn and
irresistible Claire Trevor as the prin
cipal actors. These happy, snappy
sweethearts are teamed again in the
lightning-fast tale of a live-wire girl
reporter and her scheming sweet
heart. They were sweethearts in
“Jimmy and Sally” in a riotous ro
mance. Because of their wonder
lul success in that picture Fox pair
ed them in this latest comedy. You
want to see again the pals and sweet
hearts of “Jimmy and Sally.”
Climaxing the week’s attractions
will be the grand Columbia picture,
“Master of Men” with Jack Holt,
Fay Wray and Walter Connolly on
| Friday and Saturday, June 6-7. The
! steel industry, basis of many of
i America’s fortunes, and about which
j centers many romances of modern
| business in the atmosphere in which
| “Master of Men” is laid. Jack Holt
i will be seen in the picture as a fore
man who climbs in the industry until
he becomes not only a master of it,
but virtual master of Wall Street.
His pictures rise and fall parallels
the life story of one of the great
steel magnates in real life. Fay
Wray is Holt’s resourceful young
wife who is willing to risk the fam
ily fortune to save him from his own
greed. The financial frenzy of ’29
booms again in this remarkable Holt
film. Holt rises from a mill-hand
to millionaire to win a woman’s love.
Don’t miss next week’s attractions.
