Add to these the | college-girl type of sparkling dia- logue which Lynn Roberts supplies, the smart wisecracks and actions of William Henry, and the ipane re marks of “Elmer,” Max Terhune’ irrepressible dummy—and you have a very slight idea of what to expect from this hilarious comedy. Republic has turned out a film which appeals to everyone in “Mama Runs Wild.” Grandma and Junior can sit side by side and chuckle, laugh, and roar at the situ- ations devised and solved by Mary and Ernest before he finally defeats her in the mayoralty campaign of Paradise Park—the city just thi side of heaven. Don’t* miss laugh-provoker extraordinary! Second feature, “Hollywood Roundup,” is a Columbia picture, starring Buck Jones. Patrons will enjoy an unusual treat in this film which approaches “Westerns” from an entirely new angle. It tells a| bangup story of a Western cowboy | actor, and incorporates all the thrills of a routine Western plus the unu- | sual and interesting angles of pic- | ture making.

Paul Muni, who hasn't found one, is still in our midst. . . . And wasn't it Muni who, couple of years back, was all set to shake off the Hollywood gold dust? . . . Majority of actors, if they’d only admit it, are so thankful to be free of that “stage glamor” and live in a house they’d have to be dragged back to Broadway by wild horses—or lapsed options. . . .
