Four Marx Brothers
Coming Here Sunday
"Horse Feathers," latest of the mad,
merry comedies of the Four Marx
Brothers, comes to the Fox Craterlan
Sunday, Monday and Tueaday.
Groucho, Chlco, Harpo and Zeppo
are again cast together In a picture
that affords them opportunities for
the same type of nonsense they pre-
-Mnted In "Animal Crackers," "Mon
key Business" and "The Cocoanute,"
their three previous movie efforts.
An amusing plot holds the picture
together. Groucho is ft college presi
dent because that's the. only way, It
seems, he can get his son, Zeppo, out
of college. Zeppo has been there 13
years.
- With the co-operation of Chlco,
village bootlegger, and Harpo, village
dog catcher, he ultimately accom
plishes his object.
Upon this frame U built many a
comedy situation. Oroucho talks at
his usual rapid-fire rate; Chlco puns
In dialect; Harpo says nothing and
chasea every blonde In alght; and
Zeppo makes love to the best looking
girls available.
James Hall In person and Conrad
Nagel'a latest picture, "The Man
Called Back," are on the Craterlan
bill tonight.
