The Theatres
REGENT Matinee and night. To-morrow Monday and Tuesday "Another Thin Man" William Powell, Myrna Loy. The gayest family you've ever met, stepping ollt nonchalantly of Dashiell Hammett's thrilling successor to "The Thin Man." William Powell as Nick Charles —shrewd, witty detective—the perfect husband; Myrna Loy as Nora Charles— the perfect wife—to say nothing of. Thin Man Junior —the perfect baby! and Asta—is his nose out of joint? Mile-a-minute, laugh a second, tingling entertainment—breathless with excitemcnt —packed with laughs and tense moments! It is two years since Powell made a film—illness at one time threatened his life —but he is as suave and amusing as ever as the detective. By sheer acting ability and deft production, "Another Thin Man" is a remarkable show.
GRAND Commencing Saturday (matinee), Monday and Tuesday "Alias the Deacon" Bob Burns, Mischa Auer. Here's a darned good laugh tonic! The hilarious comedy of a gambler and card sharp who disguises hinv self as a deacon. He has been hounded out of one town and lands in another and is mistaken,, by his name, Deke, lor a churchman. "Stranger from Texas" Charles Starrett. Sons of the pioneers! Western songs! Western thrills! Tlie singing cowboy, Charles Starrett, appears in thrill-packed Western replete with tuneful music of the range.
