MAORILAND THEATRE.

"CLEAR .THE DECKS." ■Could anything be worse than to have the girl with whom you are madly in. love think you a lunatic while you are forced to stand by silently because of your promise to a friend? Such is the complex predicament in which the fascinating Reginald Denny finds him- , self in his latest starring comedy, "Clear the Decks," which opens at the Shannon Theatre on Wednesday. "Clear the Decks" is a laugh-cram-med cyclonic comedy of the high seas which affords, the incomparable Denny the gay, care-free, swift-moving type of role that has so endeared him to the hearts of his thousands of admirers. "COHENS AND KELLYS" AOAIN. Atlantic City with its beaches, hotela and bathing beauties was the location

spot where most of Universal's "The Cohens and Kellys in Atlantic City," the riotous comedy to open at the Maoriland Theatre on Friday, was filmed. ' It :is the policy of Carl Laemmle, president of Universal Pictures Corporation, to shoot pictures in the actual place where the story occurs. He has done this where ever practicable. A company „of sixty people headed by Director William Craft were sent to Atlantic City to film this comedy, which continues the adventures of the two families started two years ago in "Te Cohens and Kellys." This time the partners are in the knit goods business and the story has numerous bathing girl sequences. A new kind of bathing beauty contest, called a "Summer Girl Contest," is one of the big features. In the cast are George Sidney, in the starring role, Vera Gordon, Mack Swain, Kate Price, Cornelius Keefo, Nora Lane, Virginia Sale and Tom Kennedy.
