COMEDY BILLIS BEING FEATURED AS CAPITOL SHOW For an evening of laughs and re- laxation from your work and worries —and you do need this to carry on better—you won't find a better |place than the Capitol Theatre, where Edward Small’s riotous new comedy, “Abroad With Two Yanks"” opened last night to the delight of all present in the audience. It's one of the funniest films of this| or any other season. The male stars, William Bendix iand Dennis O’Keefe, are a perfect |comedy duo. There's Dennis the {smart guy, on to all the tricks of “getting a dame” and his buddy | Bendix, who is usually the goat. The picture opens with the pair landing in Australia for a well-earned fur- lough, and immediately the fast and funny action starts. These two are pals on the battlefield, but on a furlough the story is different. Then women enter the picture and things do get jammed up. The wo- man in this case is the feminine star lovely Helen Walker, and whag fan- tastic feats the boys stage in order ito win her! Of course, they wind up in the clink. The story is one that is difficult to outline. It is so full of hilarious |moments that are just plain fun and so fast that, in your men‘imem,‘ you forget where you or the story| is going. Suffice it to say that it's| one wonderful furlough, both for the onlooker and the actors. EX-PARATROOPER IS CAPTURED; WANTED IN SEX SLAYING | HADDON HEIGHTS, N.
