But Bob is turned down by a hardboiled agent, and when lie meets Shirley Ross, she attempts to encourage him by letting him hock her ring so that lie will have money to finance his efforts. Then Bob has to lose the ring in a gambling game, and he loses almost everything when the girl and the orchestra break into the bigtime on their own momentum. Fitting into the plot of the picture are two grand new tunes. One is ‘Some Like It Hot." played with mad abandon by Krupa. “king of the hide beaters,” and his orchestra, and the other is “The Lady’s in Love With You.” sung by Bob and Shirley and guaranteed to make you recall "Thanks For the Memory.” The programme opens with a further chapter of "Buck Rogers.” OPERA HOUSE “THE CINGALEE” ON MONDAY Constant rehearsals have brought the forthcoming operatic production of “The Cingalee” lo a high degree of efficiency. And when the curtain rises at the Opera House on Monday night a well-trained company will greet the audience. A special feature of the production is the ballet, and in addition to the set ballets practically every musical number lias its own dance ensemble. The producer, Mrs. McBeth, whose stage name was Eva Moore, has trained the ballet to professional standard, and the dance numbers undoubtedly will provide some of the highlights of the season. •‘The Cingalee" is a sparkling musical comedy, with bright and tuneful songs and choruses and amusing dialogue In a romantic Eastern setting, gorgeous dressing and spectacular scenery. Altogether it is one of the most entertaining operas produced by the Gisborne society and is sure of a suc-

cessful season. The plan of reserved seats is at Tattersnil and Baylv's, and intending patrons are reminded that the net proceeds are to be handed over to patriotic funds. Children will be admitted for half price on Monday night.
