STATE THEATRE
‘■THERE GOES MY HEART.” “There Goes My Heart” will be finally shown tonight at the State Theatre. “PASSPQRT HUSBAND.” It has been a long time since anything has appeared so funny as the gangsters’ dilemma in “Passport Husband,” which will be shown at the State Theatre tomorrow. Picture Stuart Erwin, a night bus-boy, married to a Spanish dancer who happens to be loved by two rival gangsters. One of these worthies, in the absence of the other, has had her married to Erwin to save her from deportation. Erwin, it develops, is the only person the gangsters know who has an unimpeachable record. On top of this Erwin inherits a pin-ball machine factory fro man uncle. The sad-lipped comedian who heads the featured cast of “Passport Husband,” is ably aided in the mad melange by Pauline Moore, Douglas Fowley, Joan Woodbury, Robert Lowery and Harold Huber. The hilarious aspect of a whole bankful of extortion money, with half the town’s leading citizens held as suspects in a weird series of clueless crimes makes “One Wild Night,” which is to be shown tomorrow night, everything that the title implies. June Lang, as an irresponsible reporter in quest of the great American news scoop, turns in her best performance in many a picture. Dick Baldwin gives his finest performance to date as a willing novice criminologist who has June in his hair —and in turn gives his chief-of-police father the screaming meemies by his well-intentioned efforts to solve a crime wave.
