SATURDAY.
MATINEE AT 2 P.M. No old gags . . . no ancient clowning . . . no dull patter ! . . . but in The Four Marx Brothers' new Paramount comedy, "Monkey Business," which opens on Saturday at the Majestic Theatre, there is one long series of new surprises in comedy situations, side-splitting jokes, in fact, The Four Marx Brothers made all Hollywood go nutty . . . they convulsed the whole studio staffs by their idiotic buffoonery, and lunatic antics. In "Monkey Business," the Marx Brothers go to sea. They start as stowaways, and end up in the captain's quarters, after covering the ship from crow's nest to keel, in pursuit of laughs. Groucho smokes his cigar and makes funny remarks . . . Harpo, the dumb one, twangs his harp, and gallops after beautiful girls . .. Chico performs gjrmnastic feats on the piano . . . Zeppo tries out a shipboard romance in the midst of this funny "Monkey Business" . . . Oh, yes, there's music and girls aplenty in it! A big series of shorts will also be shown.
