NEW ORLEANS IS
New Andy Hardy Film Coming
MACDONALD-EDDY
Together for the sixth time,
in a picture said to surpass even
their greatest triumphs on the
screen, Jeanette MacDonald and
Nelson Eddy are at the Crater
ian Theatre for three days start
ing today in "New Moon", a
story set against the colorful
background of early New Or
leans. The plot tells the story of a
lady of noble French birth and
a man who, masquerading as
a bondsman, manages to elude
the guillotine by dropping his
official title as the Due de Vil
liers. His dream of a republican
form of government is realized
when, cast upon the shores of
an island remote from shipping
lanes, he sets up a community
with the members of his ship
wrecked crew and the passen
gers of the boat, "New Moon",
. which he and his men had seized
on the high seas. The action
moves from New Orleans to the
island and is replete with many
romantic as well as comedy sit
uations. The varied musical score by
Slgmund Romberg is one of the
finest ever presented in a Mac-
donaldrEddy musical. Miss Mac-
Donald s solos include the fa
mous "Lover Come Back to Me,"
"One Kiss", "Paree", and "Ron
dolet". Together with Eddy she
sings "Wanting You", while the
Largo number is sung with
a choir. Eddy's songs include
"Softly As In a Morning Sun
rise", "Stout Hearted Men" and
"Shoe Shine Song" and a male
quartet renders the lilting "Marianne".
The supporting cast Includes
Mary Boland, George Zucco, H.
B. Warner, Grant Mitchell and
Stanley Fields.

brings the ninth of the popular
series, "Andy Hardy Meets Deb
utante", to the Craterian Wed
nesday for a four day showing. '
The story takes them to New
York where Andy is faced with
a problem very serious to him
but full of laughs for everyone
else. Back in Carvel he has be
come smitten with pictures of a
glamorous New York debutante
and when his one-sided romance
is discovered by his home-town
sweetheart and his chums, he
answers their heckling by boast
ing that he really knows the
debutante. That's where Judy
comes in and fixes things for
Andy and the "glamour girl"
to meet and save Andy's honor.
to a job as cafe singer in a small
Arizona town, when her old jal
lopy breaks down in the middle
of the desert. A young rancher,
Bill Anders, gives her overnight
shelter only to have her descend
upon him again with a whole
family of itinerant crop-followers
who are. prospecting for
gold.
Lee Bowman, the young Arch
duke of "Florian," wins his first
male lead as Bill Anders, and
Slim Summerville is his comic
hired hand, Fred Gubbins, Vir
ginia Weidler as Jubie Davis,
daughter of the prospecting fam
ily, completes the quartet of
principals.
A desert gold strike brings
rejoicing and celebration only
to result in equal dejection
when it turns out to be a fluke,
with ore not worth digging for.
Then Maisie must start solving
problems all over again and
her thousand end one fans will
begin one of their most delight
ful encounters with the popular
honky-tonk queen.
"Gambling on the High Seas",
starring Wayne Morris and Jane
Wyman, plays as the companion

Recently the screen has seen
Marlene Dietrich in a western
role and Edward G. Robinson
portraying a kindly doctor so
it isn't surprising to learn that
the "Dead End" Kids and "Little
Tough Guys" have been re
moved from their New York
gutter roles and transplanted to
a California ranch in their new
est co-starring feature, "You're
Not So Tough", which heads the
double bill coming to the Rialto
Theatre for Tuesday and Wed
nesday. They are cast as a group
of itinerants who live by their
wits and, who, in the course of
the story encounter every ob
stacle that met the Joads in
"Grapes of Wrath". Henry Ar-
mctta and Nan Grey have roles
with the popular young stars.
"Millionaires in Prison", star
ring fast-talking Lee Tracy, will
play as the companion feature
with "You're Not So Tough".

lead you away into the land of

run today at the Roxy Theatre,

technicolor. The grandest car
toon feature since "Snow
