GRAND THEATRE
TO-NIGHT Quite the most delightful screen comedy in many a day is "Many a Slip," the Universal picture which is now showing at the Grand Theatre. With a story filled with a spicy quality of humour and an unsually capable cast, the production goes along at a lilting pace which is the goal of comedy jnakers, and the resulb is a laughing success which is altogether enjoyable. Lew Ayres, who has suddenly become one of the most popular of leading men, plays the principal male role in a manner which will undoubtedly increase his growing circle of admirers, and Joan Bennett brings her blonde beauty and her rare ability as a comedienne to the leading feminine part. The third member of the triumvirate of stars heading the cast is Slim Summerville who long ago qualified as one of the funniest men on the screen. Other important roles are played by Virginia Oakland, Roscoe Karns and J. C. Nugent. "Many a Slip" tells the story of a girl who loves a young man not wisely but too well, and, wishing to marry him, allows him to believe that she is expecting an heir.
