GRAND AND LYRIC
“MAKING THE GRADE” Theatre-goers have a rare treat in store with “Making the Grade” now at the Grand and Lyric Theatres. This picture is rated as one of the best laugh pictures of the year. It features in the leading roles Lois Moran and Edmund Lowe and is a product of Fox Films. Directed by Alfred E. Green, who has made several Ade stories into films, “Making the Grade” is a romance constantly punctuated by laughs. The story deals with the efforts of a little girl who operates a tea room to reform an insufferable young snob of great wealth. One situation follow's another, plunging the young pair into all sorts of difficulties. There is a sort of “Taming the Shrew” angle reversed, as it were, with the young woman as the tamer. An excellent cast has been given this picture and the interest never lets down. A tense underworld story of a young bank robber reformed by his wife is the second film at both theatres. This is “Ladies of the Mob,” starring Clara Bow and Richard Arlen.
