CAPITOL
“CRADLE SNATCHERS” “Cradle Snatchers,” now being shown at the Capitol Theatre, is the story of three wives whose husbands take a fishing trip. That is to say. they go fishing, but as a matter of fact they take three blondes on a little excursion. The wives discover the deception and hire three college boys to play the parts of sheiks to arouse their husbands’ jealousies. The boys are rather reluctant swains, who make love to the wives for purely monetary considerations, each having a sweetheart of his own. The husbands return to their wives and discover what has occurred during their absence, believing it to be real unfaithfulness on their wives’ parts. And while they are at the height of their denunciations and the wives and their hired lovers frightened out of their wits, the husbands’ blondes turn up. The resulting situations are hilariously funny, and as Percy Hammond in the “Herald Tribune” says, “It is a sermon.” But a screamingly ludicrous sermon.
