CIVIC’S NEXT CHANGE
“PARAMOUNT ON PARADE” Fifteen entertainment interludes, with more than 36 stars and featured players taking parts, make up Paramount’s great entertainment film festival "Paramount on Parade,” which comes to tho Civic Theatre on Thursday. . An Australian, heard here only’ as an amateur, is Leon Errol, who—going to America 20 years ago—has long been one of the foremost musicalcomedy comedians in that country'. Considerable interest therefore attaches to the speaking appearance he
is now making: in "Paramount on Parade.” - One of his mediums in this is a little hospital sketch The laughs he gets with his easy, unforced methods fully explain the eminence he has achieved in a keenly competitive profession. Stars individually and collectively are for ever present
in song, comedy and spectacle. Strikingly original are some of the humorous. sketches. For example, George Bancroft, in “Jf We Only Followed Our Impulse,” and William Powell, Clive Brook, Warner Olund, Eugeno Paulette, and Jack Oakie in a criminal-detective mystery burlesque. Hoars of laughter are the accompaniment in both cases.
