STATE THEATRE
• 'UNDER YOUR SPELL.' » Lawrence Tibbett, gloriously singing three new songs headed for the nation 's hit list, brilliantly east against a background of riotous comedy provided by Gregory Eatoff and Arthur Treacher and a rough-house romance witli Wendy Barrie, screens again to-day at the State Theatre in his newest and greatest musical-eomeay romance, " Under Your Spell, ' ' Twentieth Century-Fox triumph. The new songs, written by Broadway 's rhythm kings, Arthur Sehwartz and Howard Dietz, give a lilt and a swing to the picture that is new to the screen. "Under Your Spell," "My Little Mule Wagon" and "Amigo" are titles certain to grace every orchestra's yeqUest list. In a role very closely paralleling real life, the world-famous baritone is cast as a popular singer, kept so busy by his vigorous manager, Gregory Batoff, that his every moment is filled with a continual round of eiigagemenfs, endorsements and publieity stunts. Accompanying Tibbett is . Arthur Treacher, wildly comic as a coldly formal English man-servant who loses his reserve on a Western reservation and turns cowboy. Pursuing Tibbett to the wide open spaces is Weudy Barrie, as a coldly formal society girl who loses her heart on a mountain top and turns romantio.
