TAKE MY WORD FOR IT-
Here is a whole program that is remarkable! "There's Always Tomorrow"
is as clean, wholesome, humorous and thoroughly enjoyable a picture as we
have ever run. "La Cucuracha" is positively dazzling in its beauty of color
and music. Don't wait ... the show only plays two days ... be one of the
first to see it. I heartily recommend the entire program and guarantee that
you will not be disappointed.
