It comes Sunday, Monday and Tuesday to the Grand theatre. Singers, dancers and entertain ers, all stage and screen topnotch ers bestar the new Fox Film su per - entertainment, "George White's 1935 Scandals". They In clude Alice Faye, James Dunn, Ned Sparks, Lyda Robertl, Cliff Edwards, Arline Judge, Eleanor Powell, Emma Dunn, Benny Ru bin. George White, in addition to having conceived, produced, and directed the entire production, ap pears in the east. The 1935 Scandals, said to be more colorful than the first edi tion, has a stellar cast composed of stage and screen celebrities. The entire musical extravagan za was conceived, produced and directed by George White. Among the hit tunes specially composed for the new "Scandals" are: "According to the Moon light". "Hunkadola," "Oh, I Did n't Know (You'd Get That Way)", "It's An Old Southern Custom", "I Got Shoes, You Got Shoesles", "I Was Born Too Late". They were created by Jack Yellen, Herb Magidson, Joseph Meyer and Cliff Friend. In "Anne of Green Gables", which opens today at the State theatre, a worthy successor to "Little Women" in charm and heart appeal, comes to the screen. This simple, wholly delightful tale of childhood and early youth is certain to delight millions, for all of the charm of L. M. Montgom ery's beloved novel has been cap tured in the picture. The characterizations are par ticularly fine. Anne Shirley, Gil bert Blythe, Matthew and Mar iUa Cuthbert, and the other cen tral figures of the Montgomery novel, are depicted with convinc ing reality. The story, as millions of de voted readers will recall, concerns an orphan girl who is sent to a farm home in place of the boy who had been expected. Whimsi cal, Imaginative, sweet, but as fiery-tempered as her red hair de notes, she wins the hearts of the old bachelor and spinster who take her in. Her conquest of Matthew, the brother, is easy, but the bitter Marilla is harder to reach. A schodlroom quarrel launches the romance between Anne and Gilbert Blythe, its development being depicted as they grow old er. True love never did have a smooth course, even in charming Prince Edward Island, the rural background of the story, and an old family quarrel, which has lasted through the years, threat ens their happiness. Backgrounds representing the Canadian province of which the author wrote so feelingly in her story are lovely, Today and Mon. ...15 ni in on MYSTERY FANS have beea waiting for this thrilling mcccjmt to "Tb Cue of the HowUng Dog"! . . . dathing idol of detective fiction, aoivea ha most cariont case be tween cocktails and kiaaef Liberty Magazine Story I ! -. f ' i " &t( -A 5 j. s -jj a 1 1 '. rmi WA iKt rs.w . , WILLIAM MARGARET LINDSAY ALLEN JENKINS OONALO WOODS EXTRA "BURIED LOOT" Sensational Record Actual Criminal Cases When Mayor Juan Posadas, Jr., of Manila, P.
