STATE THEATRE
"DON'T OET PERSONflL" 1 'J ' "Don't Get Personal" which begins its run at the State Theatre this evening, is a rollicking romance in a flivver on the open road; a laughalile yarn about two carefree lads and a lovely lass. Sally Eilers ia seen as the impetuous girl ; Jimmy Dunn and Pinky Tomlin are roving modern youthg and the flivver is played by Lizzie the Fourteenth. Parts of thirteen other cars were used in crgating Lizzie. Besides the rich humour of the situations and the lines, the picture offers music of contagious tunefulness. There are two numbers sung by Pinky Tomlin, "I Won't Take No For An Answer" and "Barnyard Serenade." Pinky wrote these selections especially for the production. He will be recalled as the composer of another song success, "Objept of My Affections." The fun jjegins at the outset, when the two young, men offei' their services at public auction. A maiden lady of determined appearanee is about to take them over with a. bid of either two heartg or two dollars, when Sally doubles her and wins Dy finesse. Then the trio starts to tour the country to bring Sally to her home}. which the boys learn, afted closing the deal, is 1000 miles away. The situations become more hilarious as the complications increase. "Don't Get Personal" is something you must see, if you will accept a- bit of personal advice.
