NELSON EDDY 1 ~ STARRINGIN | CAPITOL BILL buper Lavlsh Musxcal ‘Ro- salie” Also Has Eleanor Powell in Big Cast The world’s largest night set is introduced in the super-lavish mus- sical, “Rosalie,” which co-stars Nel- son Eddy and Eleanor Powell for the first time. The new picture comes to the Capitol Sunday, opening a three-day engagement. The set, covering some acres, represents Romanza, a gay and mythical principality. Featur- ing 1,500 bit players and 500 Al- bertaina Rasch dancers, the set w: filmed entirely at night. In order to do this it necessa row lights from eve: in Hollywcod. This is only one of the spectacular musical numbers to be seen in the film adaptation of the former Ziegfeld success. | With a cast including Eddy, Miss Powell, Frank Morgan, Edna May Oliver, Ray Bolger, Ilona Massey, Billy Gilbert, Reginald Owen, and dozens of others, the musical ex- ceeds even “The Great Ziegfeld” in its magnitude and brilliance. The story has West Point and the Continent as a background. It concerns a West Point cadet who falls in love with a princess and flies across the ocean to be with her. But the royal family has other ideas and it looks as if the foot- ball-playing cadet is going to pass the rest of his life alone in an rmy camp. amusing events PREVIEW TONIGHT—1:15 MATINEE INDAY—2 P.

With Bing Crosby and Martha Rave in the star positions, the cast includes such popular entertainers as A Devine, Mary Carlisle, Wil- liam Frawley, Fay Holden, Samuel S. Hinds, William Henry and others and also has specialty bits from that famed comedy . team, the Calgary Brc . the noted eccentric danc- ing team of Amos zmd Arno Al- phonse Berg, Tex Mor , Fran- ces Faye and Ed Rl(‘k’\ld. In addition there is an aggrega- tion of some seventy-five beautiful girls and handsome young men known as the “Sing Band.” This group uses no musical instrument yet “plays” popular music by imi- taling the various instruments a dance orchestra so closely that it is impossible for the human ear to tell the difference. The “Sing Band” rende new musical hits written expressly for “Double or Nothing” by the song teams of Johnstone and who gave the world “Pennies From Heaven,"« Siegel, and Ralph Freed and Bur- ton Lane “Double or Nothing," gay and irresponsible story of four persons vieying with a crooked lawyer to get a million dollar ey the first film in which Martha Raye plays a star role away from Bob Burns, It is also the first Croshy picture in which Bing uses the same feminine romantic lead for the sec- ond time.
