Clever Music In Jack Oakie Comedy On Holly's Screen MUSIC Written hv MnV rinrArvn nnH Harrv Revel, two nf AmoH'i song writers combined with comedy iuriiiuiiea Dy an an-star comedy cast headed by Jack Oakle, Jack Haley. Ginger Rogers, Thelma Todd and Gregory Ratoff are the main lngredl- I ent of the fast and furious screen musical -comedy "Sitting Pretty," now playing at the Holly, Produced for Paramount by Charles R. Rogbrs and directed by Harry Joe Brown from an original story sug- j gestea oy Nina wucox rumnm, "Sitting Pretty" boasts a good sup porting cast Including Lew Cody, Jerry Tucker, Walter Walker and two well-known radio features, the Pick ens Sisters and tht Beverly Hill B1L Uet. Gordon and Revel, authors of "Underneath a Harlem Moon," "An Orchid to You" and other popular tunes have written several numbers for this picture Including "Good Morning Glory," "You're such a com fort to Me." and "And There's a Blue bird at My Window, and a Sheriff at My Door." Two smacking good pro duction numbers are backed up by eye-filling sets and one hundred of Hollywood's most talented and rav ishing girls. Jack Oakle and Jack Haley are a couple of likeable muggs from New York's Tin-Pan alley who finally sell a song and go to Hollywood, A melodrama of roaring rails, "The Return of Casey Jones" completes Manager Marsh's double bill. Clark Gable and Jean Harlow Now On Rialto's Bill Clark Gable and Jean Harlow are re-united as co-stars by popular de mand In "Hold Your Man" In the Rlalto Theatre's new double feature program tomorrow. "After the Ball" is the other feature. The smashing success of "Red Dust", In which the two stars were last teamed, brought such a response from public and exhibitors that the producers started scouting for anoth er story suitable to their talents. "Hold Your Man" has an under world flavor and Is a rapldly-movtng, rowdy, worldly story of timely tempo. In it the platinum-haired Miss Har low plays the role of a gaudy creature who is willing to allow herself to be come the "lure" tn a love racket for the sake of her man. Gable, as the man in the case. Is a llght-moraled chap who finds his real worth when the girl is sent to Jail because of the trouble his racket gets her into. "After the Ball" has Esther Rals ton in a gay, light-hearted comedy. Basil Rathbone, who was with Norma Shearer In a couple of pictures, Is the leading man. ' "Doctor Bull", which has Will Rog ers In a typical Rogers role, and "The Death Kiss", play for the last times tonight at the Rlalto. date. One one half of the program, Kay Francis plays the part of "Mary Stevens, M.D." and on the other Clara Bow is the flaming carnival dsnoer of "Hoopla". "Mary Stevens, M.D., Is not only a drama of the life of a woman doctor but also a glowing romance, In which the delectable Kay Francis Is teamed with Lyle Talbot. Thelma Todd Is the "other woman" in the case. Whether there Is any room for love and marriage In the life of a profes sional woman Is one of the questions that rises tn the course of the picture. It Is easily the best thing Kay Francis has yet done. Clara Bow In "Hoopla" brings that fiery temperament and ever changing personality back to the screen In the motion picture version of the famous play "The Barker." &Markgf Livestock.

WE think the past operation of the Fox Theatre Chain in Medford is enough to put the stamp of disapprov al forever upon them, for their whole purpose and aim seems, to us, to be along pne line of thought, and that is to control all the theatres here. THEY purchased, last year, all the Major film product, forcing the closing of the Holly. George Roy, who was operating the State Theatre, was forced to quit, and the Roxy was forced to show pictures at ten cents and was barely able to remain open. They were unable to pay any decent salaries and were in a most precarious condition. ' THIS was all done by Fox with staggering losses to themselves; so we believe that if ever there wasjsuch a thing as unfair competition, this is it. WE believe that every admission paid into the Holly Theatre is a direct thrust at our very vitals, and appeal to you the citizens of our own city to spend your money with the independent, homeowned theatres. BOTH Mr. Newman and Mr. Rosenberg called upon George Hunt, agreeing to maintain the same policy and prices as Hunt's Craterian when they opened the Holly Theatre. This agreement they have already broken by double billing and really, you can expect anything. You have heard of "bread wars" when bread was sold a low as one cent per loaf and, frankly, it is possible that theatre admissions might go that low in Medford. THEY may show pictures that you wish to see, but in '.liis case, we ask you to wait for their showing in our second-mn theatres, which will show them shortly after, ward.
