In Cast.
William Powell goes through
mntics ranging from getting hit
head caught in an elevator shaft
to masquerading as a woman in
the goofiest series of adventures
he has ever attempted in "Love
Crazy," In which he and Myrna
Loy co-star, again as husband
and wife, but this time under
turbulent circumstances. The
new pictures come today to the
Craterian Theatre.
Powell and Miss Loy start
the fun rolling by planning a
wedding anniversary in which
they do everything backward,
such as starting a dinner with
dessert and ending with soup.
Powell chews up a phonograph
record because he wants to
dance by taking it internally to
prove he's crazy when Miss Loy
decides to divorce him and he
learns that crazy people can't
be divorced.
His scheme kicks back when
the alienists get hold of him and
are completely fooled by his an
tics. They're convinced that he's
really crazy and then he has
the problem of avoiding the
asylum, with comical complica
tions piling one on the other.
The cast surrounding the two
principal funmakers includes
Gail Patrick as .Powell's ex
sweetheart who starts Myrna
out In a jealous rage to divorce
Friend Husband, Jack Carson as
Powell's friend and confidant,
and Florence Bates, who plays
his mother-in-law and who
comes in for a big share of the
opportunities for comedy.

"Caught In the Draft," star
ring Bob Hope and Dorothy La
mour, with Lynne Overman and
Eddie Bracken heading the sup
porting cast, comes to the Cra
terian Theatre Wednesday for
a four day showing, one of this
season's greatest screen attrac
tions. Joan Bennett And
Franchot Tone In
Comedy At Rialto
Both Joan Bennett and Fran
chot Tone, who open for today
and tomorrow only at the Rialto
Theatre in "She Knew All the
Answers", make refreshingly
different appearances, accord
ing to advance reports on the
hectic new comedy which is said
to create a new laugh team to
make the Powell-and-Loys and
the Russell-and-Douglasas sit
up and take notice that their
fun days are practically limit
ed. Miss Bennett is a wise-cracking
young Broadway night club
star who goes to work, both lit
erally and figuratively, on Wall
Street. Tone is said to be equal
ly enjoyable as a stiff-necked.
ultra-conservative Wall Street
broker that is, until Miss Ben
nett moves in and shows the
boys a few tricks.
"She Knew All the Answers,'
a love-and-laugh farce, is based
upon the Cosmopolitan Maga
zine story by Jane Allen. The
story is concerned with Miss
- of ALL the

She knew all the answers and most of them wera
"NO"Il . . . The laughs com fast and furious as

Hope is said to run a one-man
riot in this hilarious story of
rookie life in the army, tossing
the wisecracks where they may,
trying to marry Dottle, the col
onel's daughter, getting into and
out of one scrape after another,
and all in all bringing to the
screen one of the funniest pieces
of nonsense ever filmed.
Bennett's efforts to marry a
millionaire playboy with the
consent and approval of his dig
nified guardian. Her several
stratagems result in a wedding,
with the consent and approval
of the dignified guardian, afore
mentioned. And why not? he's
the bridegroom. To go on and
reveal anymore of the nonsense
to audiences would be to let
them in beforehand on one of
the gayest and happiest times
ever promised In a motion pic
ture theatre.
John Hubbard plays the
playboy and Pierre Watkin
plays the guardian and Eve Ar
den. William Tracy (Dude of
"Tobacco Road") and Thurston
Hall are added hither and yon
in the remaining featured leads.
One of John Nesbitt's famous
and popular Passing Parade
short subjects, titled "This Is
the Bowery", is added to the
program as well as a color car
toon and the latest news events
from far and near.
Canada has at least two army
divisions (80,000 men) stationed

Mr. McVeigh is already tired of
