The story revolves around South African diamond mines, and a repro duction of one of the more famous of the mines has been created at Baldwin Park. “HE MARRIED HIS WIFE”— Once again Darryl F. Zanuck gives us a merry domestic comedy based on a hilarious idea: an ex- husband who wants to find a hus band for hi9 wife so he can stop paying heavy alimony but who balks when she turns down the colorless prospect he digs up for her in favor of a dashing, roman tic Romeo. The situations are a natural for rollicking comedy and one can expect them to be played to the hilt by the excellent cast. “TEAR GAS SQUAD” NEW JOY HIT— A coming attraction at the Joy Theatre is the thrilling Warner Bros. action film, “Tear Gas Squad,” starring Dennis Morgan, John Payne and Gloria Dickson. The plot deals with the rivalry between a sergeant, played by John Payne and a rookie cop, portrayed by Dennis Morgan. Gloria Dickson, whose family reeks police force tradition, rather favors John tnan the cocky rookie. It is when Dennis’ young brother is murdered that the young cop snaps into action. A everyone thinks they’re married . . . and they must keep up appearances. “The Doctor Takes a Wife” stars Loretta Young and Ray Milland.

Featuring Randolph Scott, Preston Foster and Margaret Lind say, the film is said to be as elec trifying as a power dive and a highly romantic love story as well. Inspired by today’s greatest avia tion exploit, this thrilling story is told through the eyes of the men who give these students wings. The locale is a small airport where a typical CAA college group is under going training and there is drama, romance and adventure to fire the imagination. “STAR DUST” INSPIRED BY FAMOUS SONG— What is generally conceded to be the greatest of all modern ballads, “Star Dust,” by Hoagy Carmichael and Mitehell Parish, has inspired a great picture, the 20th Century- Fox film of the same name which stars lovely Linda Darnell. The picture tells the story of plucky small-town youngsters scrap ping for fame in the great adven ture that is Hollywood—a story that might well be the tale of Linda’s own meteoric rise to stardom. $1.98 Style and «potlesa cleanlineas are imperative accessories to the fastidious woman.
