STATE THEATRE
"UNDER YOUR SPELL.' Lawrence Tibbett, gloriously singing three new songs headed for the nation 's hit list, brilliantly cast against a baekground of riotous comedy provided by Gregory Ratoff and Arthur Treacher and a rough-house romance witii Wendy Barrie, sqreens to-day at the State Theatre ia his newest and greatest musical-comedy romance, "Under Your Spell, ' ' Twentieth Century-Fox triumph. The new songs, written by Broadway 's rhythm kings, Arthur Schwarcz and Howard Dietz* give a iilt and a swing to the picture that is new to the screen. "Under Your Spell," "My Little Mule Wagon" and "Amigo" are titles eertain to grace every orchestra's request list. In a role very closely paraileliag real life, the world-famous baritone is cast as a popular singer, kept so busy by his vigorous manager, Gregory Eatoff, that his every moment is filled with a continual round of engagements, endorsements and publicity stunts. Accompanying Tibbett is Arthur Treacher, wildly comio as a coldly formal English man-servant who loses his reserve on a Western reservation and turns cowboy. Pursuing Tibbett to the wide open apaces is Wendy Barrie, as a eoldly formal society girl who loses her heart on a mountaia tog and turns romantio.
