COSY THEATRE
'•'lioTEL HAYWIRE AND "KING of gAmblers;" 'Let nine comedians loose in a hotel as crazy as the house that Jack built and the resulting picture should be something. That's -what Paramount has done in its newe'st comedy, "Hotel HaywTre," which screens to-night at the Cosy Theatre. Headed by Leo Carrillo and Lynn Overman, the cast includes known comedians even in bit roles . Carrillo plays "Zodiac Zippe," astrologer and gentle racketer, whose money-making activities include eyerything short of actual murder and Lynno Overman has the xole of a dentist who finds himself headed for divdrce through a practical joke. Benny Baker, as a vaudeville actor turned detective ,has an opportunity in " Hotel Haywire" to show how a detective show and shouldn't act. Assisted by his vaudeville partner, Collette Lyons, Baker gets in Overman's hair while he and his partner trail both Overman and his wife. The slot machine racket operating in a big city forms the plot of Plaramount's "King of Gamblers," which is the second feature at the Cosy Theatre.' The cast is headed by Claire Tfevor, Llyod Nolan and Akim Tamiroff. It is a dating story of an underworld czar who knew all the answers when it came to men and crime but who was tricked and trapped by the girl he loved.
