Claudette Colbert and Joel McCrea are co-starred, with Mary Astor and Rudy Vallee appearing in support. The tale is a typical Preston Sturges laugh-fest in that it con- centrates on jokes — practical and otherwise—and lets the serious go by the boards. It will be remem- bered by film fans that Sturges provided plenty of fun with his “Sullivan’s Travels,” “The Lady Eve,” “Christmas in July,” and “The Great McGinty.” “The Palm Beach Story” is said to top them all with its hilarious picture of a married woman— Claudette Colbert—who believes she can help her husband in his busi- {ness by divorcing him and being |simply a sister tq _him. Joel Mc- Crea plays the husband. — FISHERMEN'S SUNDAY AT LUTHERAN CHURCH | Next Sunday, February 20, is being | set aside as a special day for fish- | ermen at the Resurrection Lutheran " Church as they prepare to leave in the near future for the fishing banks. | All fishermen of the Channel area are cordially invited to this service, which, besides the special sermon for the occasion by the pastor, will | TI0 CENTURY STARTS TONIGHT OWL SHOW TONIGHT 12:30A.
