ENTERTAINMENT.
“SPRING FEVER.” Friday’s picture at the Town Hall, William Haines’ newest Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer Picture, “Spring Fever,” is an outstanding success, because it delightfully combines sport, love and humour with a keen study of human nature. The new picture is an hilarious comedy romance laid on pleasant and exclusive country golf links, with Haines in the role of a shipping clerk, whom his boss introduces to the club because he is a “dark horse” capable of defeating all the local cracks. Dashing and handsome, and very well pleased with himself, the clerk causes no little consternation amongst the highbrow guests when he captures the heart of the prettiest and wealthiest girl in the club. From this juncture, the picture version of the great stage success is packed with laughs and a very human love story. With “Kangaroo Detective” (Comedy), and News. Usual prices.
For sheer daring and cold nerve, nothing can equal some of the stunts performed by Tom Mix in “The Broncho Twister,” his latest Western feature which will have a showing at the Town Hall on Saturday. Usual prices.
