GOMEDY PLAYS AT CAPITOL Many Film_‘F;orites Hold Out Their Palms in Epic of Chiselers “Gold Diggers of 1935, new film reported to be the last word in musi- cal spectacles, and replete with novel innovations, subtle humor, and ridi- culous situations, opened yesterday at the Capitol Theatre. While “Gold Diggers” . is funny, there is a serious romance running through the plot, with Dick ‘Powell and Gloria Stuart portraying the lovers. Frank McHugh and Dorothy Dare also have a serio-comic love affair. Incidentally, Glenda Farrell, the only “lady gold-digger” in the story, takes Hugh Herbert over the hurdles for a piece of change. Pcwell, a medical student who werks as a clerk in a fashionable summer hotel, is engaged by Alice Brady, parsimonidus wealthy widow, to escort her daughter, Gloria Stuart, on a round of festivities during the ummer, as a reward for Gloria's promise to marry Hugh Herbert, an eccentric millionaie who writes arti- cles about snuff, in the fall. After a number of climactic situations, however, she becomes reconciled to the marriage of Gloria and Powell, jon the ground that with all the | shocks involved in living it would be cheaper to have a doctor in the family. A score of other film favorites hold :ouL their palms during the progress of the gold-digging epic. RALPH WAGGONER GIVEN FAREWELL, TENNESSEE TOWN Ralph Waggoner, son of the Rev.
