Musical Show Coming to Craterian "Hot Licks. as provided by those four purveyors of isushter Hugh Herbert, Henry Armetta, Gregory Rat off and Mlscha Auer give Ella Logan, dlmunltlve newcomer to the screen, some weird musical back ground for her torrid song numbers in "Top of the Town," coming Sun day to the New Craterian theatre. . A swing time musical, an ultra modern Jazz hit with a chromium plated finish, "Top of the Town" Is what might literally be called a "Jam Jammed -Jamboree," with seven new LARGEST GROUP OF BEASTS OF J The largest group of ferocious Jun gle beasts ever assembled In the his tory of the -world will be seen both in the menagerie and performing In the huge triple steel bar enclosed amphitheatre when the great Al G. Barns and Sella Floto combined cir cus' visits Medford, Tuesday. May 18, at the circus grounds near Jackson school. The uniting of these two giants of the tented world has created one of the country's most complete and fin est traveling zoos. Many rare Jungle denizens, as gnus, giant tapirs, yaks and emus, as well as scores of cam els, tigers, zebras, lions and all the other better-known, but seldom-seen wild animals are Included. Five hards of India and African elephants are also part of the mammoth display. The hundreds upon hundreds of world-famous arenlc stars who are a part of the colossal program form the greatest aggregation of talent ever to be seen under one canvas "big top." One of the outstanding features Is' the amazing, sensational performances given twice dally by Bert Nelson, the greatest wild animal trainer of all times, with 35 untamed. spitting and fighting tigers and lions. The act, which has never before been attempted, is made possible only be cause these great circuses pooled their vast resources to purchase the Jungle bred animals. Packed every moment with danger. It Is an exhibition of man's' daring and power. Viewed with absolutely no danger to the audience. It Is a performance that will never be forgotten. Mr. Nelson Is a young man still In his twenties. Dally, and with a smile that nothing can erase, and with only a whip and a chair for protection, he puts his snarling charges through their dif ferent routines. His Is the daring of youth and It IB safe to say no man will ever try to emulate him. The meanest animals In the world, who stoutly refuse to be subjugated, do their utmost to kill, only to end by performing the tricks young Mr. Nel son Insists upon.
