REGENT THEATRE
Finally tonight, Roy Rogers with Trigger in "Yellow Rose of Texas," and "The Chaiiie Chaplin Festival." SATURDAY AND MONDAY MATINEE SATURDAY 2 P.M. Packed with. chuckles, guffaws and downright howls of delight, "The Egg and I," UniversalInternational's pictui'isation of Betty MacDonald's beloved bestseller opens at the Regent Theatre on Saturday for two days only. Some 25 million persons are reputed to have read this hilarious account of a honeymoohing couple's struggle to make a living on a mountain-wilderness chicken ranch. Only the most captious could quarrel with the way it has been transferred to the screen. The earthly flavour, the high humour, the weird charaete^s of the book have all been skillfully retained and there has been added ingeniously a story line to give pl'ot and suspense. Remember it's race night so make and collect your reservations by 7.30. Theatre office open continuously from 1.30 p.m. Saturdays.
