CRYSTAL PALACE AND EMPRESS
Wliat Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer did j with the stage in “Broadway Melody” j they have outdone with the college j in “So This Is College,” which is now j at the Crystal Palace Theatre, Mount Eden, and the Empress Theatre, New- j ton. For sheer entertainment value, this j new talking-singing-dancing collegi- j ate feature lacks few ingredients and ! scores a winning touchdown for thrills and suspense in the dramatic football climax. In bringing* to the screen three new faces, the director has shown rare casting ability. Robert Montgomery and Elliott Nugent, both well known j to Broadway stage audiences, are un- ) known to the moving picture public, but their debut as the “Damon and Pythias” of the U.S.C. football eleven should start them on a sure road io screen success. The introduction of little Sally Starr as a new discovery is a happy one.
