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."

Why We Think the Fox Theatre Chain
and Holly Theatre Are A Menace to
Medford and Vicinity and to Us -- the
Independent Theatre Owners ....
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.
Yours for a Greater and Better Medford
