How Guy Kibbee loves d protects this tiny waif he had picked out of the sea years before, how he loses her to a vixenish old truant offi- cer and eventually wins her back| again is revealed in the fascinating plot of “Captain January.” Shirley performs a series of tink- ling new steps, including a delight- ful novelty called “The Multipli- cation Table ance,” and sings| three grand new songs. The Lew Pollack, is “The Right Some- body to Love.” Slim Sommerville, Buddy Ebsen, lovely June Lang and Jane Darwell are the principal supporting play- ers in the picture, directed by Da- vid Butler. | Unlike any picture to come to the sound screen, “Let’s Sing Again” is a musical drama, and not a musi- lcal picture of the type so well- known to the cinema-going public. ! Lengthy chorus and ensemble num- bers are absent. The six melodies, three of which are original popu- ‘lar tunes, are sung as pait of the| !drama of the story. “Let’s Sing {Again” will introduce to the Coli- iseum Theatre audiences the won- ider child star who achieved nation- al air wave renown on Eddie Can- tor’s radio broadcasts, Bobby Breen. This eight-year-old mime stars in “Let's 8ing Again,” with Henry Ar- metta heading the featured cast. Bobby’s songs are an integral part| of “Let’s Sing Again” each of which is pertinently concerned with the story of an orphaned lad who is” guided by a circus handyman and eventually reunited with a long lost father. MRS, LAVENIK HIGH, BUT MRS, PETRICH WINS Mrs. Kaufmann Leadsi MockingBirds in Triumph at Oriole Pin Session Showing the Rookies just how it should be done, a trio of Orioles shattered the five-century mark at the Elks' Saturday evening, Mrs. Lavenik found her top score of 540, including a high game of 212, wasted when her Robin team- mates did not give her quite enough support, and Mrs. Tom Petrich, roll- ,ing alone for the Waxwings, scored a sweep over the Robins, with her place total of 517. In the opening match, Mrs. Rob- ert Kaufmann, counted only one less pin than Mrs. Petrich, as she led the Mocking Birds to a two out of three game victory over the Towhees.
