Holly Theatre Will Re Open
Wednesday For Showing
Of Clever Mother-ln-Law
Comedy.
A triumvirate of exceptional star
power brings Clark Gable, Myrna
Loy and Jean Harlow In "Wife v.
Secretary" to the Craterian theatre,
where' it start a three day run to
day. Fa6t-paced, up-to-date film enter
tainment, based on Faith Baldwin's
widely-read Cosmopolitan Magazine
story. "Wife vs. Secretary" shows
how a series of events Innocent
though they might be. caused a wife
to become suspicious of her bus
band's secretary particularly when
the secretary is as desirable as Har
low. Thoroughly modern, with laugh
' situations . mixed with the heart
throbs, set against the spectacular
background of New York's skyscrap
er world and the more exotic set
tings of Havana, the film play shows
Gable as the wealthy publisher, very
much In love with his charming
wife. Myrna Loy, but caught in an
emotional crisis by the presence of
bis secretary. Jean Harlow.
May Robson, Hobart Cavanaugh,
George Barbler and James Stewart
head the supporting cast.
On Wednesday only, the Craterian
will have one of the- screen's favor

ton, with Peggy conklln. Laura Hope
Crews and Grant Mitchell also fea
tured. In "Hpt Master'! Voice."
That proverbial fear of one's mother-in-law
and her caustic tongue,
which seems to be a deeply-Ingrained
part of our national conscious
ness, furnishes the theme of "Her
Master's Voice." '
Horton plays the part of Ned "ar
rar, suffering from the combination
of too, much mother-in-law and the
fact that he's fresh out of a job.
Mother-in-law is one of those de
lightful persons who only stops re
minding Ned that he's out of work
when she shifts over to the theme
of "oh why did my daughter ever
marry such a man."
How Ned finally proves to every
one's satisfaction that he really has
"what It takes" forms the hilarious
and surprising climax to the film.
"Her Master's Voice" will also be
shown Wednesday night only at the
Holly theatre.
Archie Legg Music

mittee In charge of arrangements for

A new milestone In the brief but
spectacular history of the motion
picture will be marked with the
opening Thursday at the Craterian
theatre of the screen's first all-in
Technicolor outdoor picture, "The
Trail of the Lonesome Pine." Fred
MacMurray, Sylvia Sidney and Henry
Fonda are starred.
With color used on the screen as
It la in nature as an Inevitable,
natural background, rather than as
an exciting new novelty with which
to experiment, "The Trail of the
Lonesome Pine" accentuates the story
first of all, allowing the color to
take care of itself In Its own natural
way. The result is a picture that
even in the standard black and
white would make fine entertain
ment. With the added effect gained
by color, the film has started a new
era in picture production and we
can expect many of next year's more
important film plays using the
Technicolor process.
Set in the beautiful Cumberlands
(actually filmed In the high Sierra),
"The Trail of the Lonesome Pine"
presents Miss Sidney and Fonda as
members of the same mountain clan,
who all their Uvea have loved each
other and warred together in a
neighboring family. Ancient ways are
changed however, when MacMurray.
a young engineer, arrives to con
struct a railroad line through their
hills. He wins Miss Sidney's heart.
while Fonda, in bewilderment, sees
the collapse of the, only code he
knows to fight and kill for what
he loves. The film reaches a climax
when Fonda sets out after MacMur
ray, and the rival clan simultaneous
ly starts after Fonda.

Rebel," which starts a three day run
today. Ably supported by a fine
cast which Includes John Boles.
Jack Holt, Karen Morley and her old
