MILITARY MUSICAL ROMANCE
EMPIRE TO SCREEN HOVEL PICTURE With the enchantment of Hawaiian nights, the spirit of the United States army, the thrill of West Point, and the romance of youth, ‘ Flirtation Walk.’ which opens at the Empire on Friday, brings tho first military musical to the screen. And it is fitting that for this picture two experienced musical comedy stars have been chosen—Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler. These stars have appeared in a number of popular musical comedies, but this latest one must be placed at the top of the list. Briefly, the story deals with the rise of a young officer and his mutual love affair with the general’s daughter, with the inevitable complications provided by the general’s aide, who is also in love with the girl. Of course, all ends satisfactorily, but not before tho full quota of embarrassing situations and amusing incidents have appeared. Dick Powell is tho rising officer, and Ruby Keeler tho general’s daughter. Pat O’Brien is also starred, appearing as Sergeant Thornhill, Powell’s superior officer. The West Point Cadet Corps is *also featured.
