COSY THEATRE

‘■OUR RELATIONS.” Laurel and Hardy, the priceless pair of comedians, .have given many great comedy successes to the screen but never anything funnier than the laughter riot, “Our Relations.” As brothers meet their twins its a laugh in every minute of the screening. Even their wives don’t know or believe they had twin brothers. The associate feature is “Between Two Women,” a new screen triumvirate — Franchot Tone, Maureen O'Sullivan, and Virginia Bruce —is featured for the first time in the dramatic panorama of the lives and loves of those who heal the wounds of humanity in one of the world's largest modern hospitals. For his role. Tone steps directly from his admirable portrayal of the coward in “They Gave Him a Gun” into the sympathetic role of a young and studious doctor that furnishes opportunity for all the power of his dramatic ability. Virginia Bruce, through her admirable work as the siren in “The Great Ziegfeld,” won the role of a self-willed heiress, and Maureen O’Sullivan appears as Claire Donahue, a married nurse, secretly in love with Tone. In the supporting cast arc Cliff Edwards, as a newspaper reporter; Helen Troy, as the telephone operator; Janet Beecher, as the head nurse; Leonard Penn, as a sadistic surgeon; Charley Grapewin, Grace Ford, June Clay worth, Edward Norris, Anthony Nace and Hugh Marlowe.
