Their trans-continental adventure on the sails of love make "Love on a Bet" one of the season's more unusual comedy attractions, "Love on a Bet" is brisk, rousing, weJl-paced. An excellent cast, sprightly dialogue and the odd situations elevate fdie entire production to a cresendo of suspense and humour resulting in a mighty fine comedy romance. "Women' Are Trouble" is the title of a newspaper story. Pressmen, with few exceptions will agree with "the declarative title, sorne from experiebce and many others from observation. Women, from their standpoint, are also provender for the Press, material for the liead writers and subject matter for the photograpbers.
