Associated Talking Pietures, who made "Murder at Broadcasting Houso" and "The Silent Passenger," have in "Oalling The Tune," their latest production, screening at t,he Municipal to-night, sustained. the favourable iinpression created by those two films. Starring Sally Grey and Clifford Evans, it has an original theme, distinctively handled, and possesses many aspects of popular appeal. Tracing the developnicnt of the gramophone science and ind'ustry, "Calling tlio Tune" possesses unique interest values as well as affording opportunities for perfprmanoes by notable world favourites, of Avhom the Queen's Hall Orchestra, under the directiou of Sir Heury Wopd, and Georgo Robey are outstanding exaniples.

The magnificent grandeur of Yellowstone National Park is another reason why the picture, is gripping entertainment. : The cast includos Henry Hunter as the forest ranger; Judith Barrett as his sweetheart; Ralph Morgan, Alan Hale, 'Micliael Loring, Andy Devine, Monroe Owsley and PaUl Harvey.
