TODAY and Friday One brief, (laming moment and the world reeled before their eyes I 3 BRIEF th Gene Raymond Wll ALSO Arthur Jsrret In "BOAMIV THRU ROSSS" Cartoon, Jealous Lover, Newt COMING Saturday Carole Lombard in (Continued from page one) banker. No one else was permitted to enter the yard, guarded by police and federal operatives. M. F. Klnkead, Ramsey county at torney, came to the home shortly afterward. The door first was shut in his face. A few minutes elapsed before he was admitted. Hannl, asked if Bremer was all right, replied: "Yes, he is." Beyond that, silence veiled Vie ex periences of the banker since the gang seized him shortly after he had left his 8-j;ear-old daughter, Betty, at the exclusive Summit girls' school. Co-operation Refused At the home with Bremer and his father, were his uncle, Otto Bremer, chairman of the board of the Ameri can National bank, and head of the Minnesota Home Owners' Loan corpo ration. The Bremers, prominent Democrats, steadfastly refused to co operate with authorities during the banker's imprisonment, feeling at that time any police activity would endanger the victim's life. Dr. J M. Sprafka, who examined Bremer, 6ald his physical condition was "good." He had suffered a beat ing about the head, presumably when he was seized. His automobile, found shortly afterward, was profusely splotched with blood. The wounds are all healed now," said Dr. Sprafka. "Mr. Bremer is very, very nervous. I ordered him to bed for & good rest." Dr. Sprafka said the bankers' wife and their 8-year-old daughter. Betty, were in the house with the family. Bremer, the physician said, did not know the vicinity in which he was held captive in relation to Rochester, where he was freed. Bremer was held the same length of time as John J. O'Connell, jr., wealthy young member of a politi cally prominent New York state fam ily. This was t,he longest kidnap seizure since -the fatal Lindbergh baby abduction. Dr. Sprafka afterward said a ran- j.som had been paid but he did not mww now mucn. !" - 1 4 Days f PAUL l&lSv Sat- 1 NowPlaying CECIL B.DeMILLE'S Today & Friday Double Bill ALSO HOOT GIBSON In "THE FIGHTING PARSON" Plus Short Reels DANCE PRESENTING ARCHIE LEGG AND HIS 10 PIECE ROYAL SERENADERS FAIRGROUNDS PAVILION SATURDAY NIGHT The southwest's most colorful group of musicians and entertainers Men 50c Double Feature Tim McCoy plays the role of a race track driver in "Straightaway," coming to the Rlalto theater on the double feature program for Friday and Saturday.

Lee Tracy In Fast Role At Craterian All the trials and tribulations that go with editing an 'agony" column on a big metropolitan daily fall to the lot of breezy Lee Tracy in his new picture, "Advice to the Love lorn." And. we might add "and then some!" for it is no ordi nary lovelorn column that the brisk blond star conducts in this newest offering, which began a four-day run at the Craterian theater yesterday. As Toby Prentiss, he dishes out some of the goofiest advice ever taken to heart by a lovelorn soul. But it's all part of Toby's plot to wiggle out of a five-year contract that holds him to the detested post to which he was demoted as a pen alty for getting drunk and missing the year's prize story by sleeping calmly through an earthquake. Claudette Colbert Mary Boland Herbert Marshall William Gargan A Paramount Picture Ladies 25c Toby's plot misses fire, however, and his subsequent efforts to dodge his trusting correspondents and their irate mothers and at the soma time keep a weather eye open for a way out of this loathsome Job, make for a a-utth nf htffhlv H vrt i t na tion . I Toby's troubles are aggrevated by the fact that his sweetheart holds very definite and most flattering views concerning the Fourth Estate and refuses to marry him until he accepts a Job in her father's garage. It Is not until he gets himself In volved with a vicious racketeer and Inadvertently causes the death of bis own mother and the downfall of a lovelorn girl that Toby manages to straighten out .bit mad and madden ing existence. The role of Toby Prentiss is made to order for Tracy and his work easily tops any performance he has given. Tracy moves through the film like a wisecracking whirlwind. There is also a Mickey Mouse car toon, a comedy and newsreel on the same program. HOSS DEATH HALTS AUTO REGISTRATION Lee Garlock, secretary of the Amer ican Automobile association here, and who also registers out-of-state cars for the secretary of state's depart ment, said today that he had received word from Salem not to register any more out-of-state automobiles until further notice.
