FOR RESERVATIONS PHONE 612 p | ! | FILM "PERSONAL COLUMN" IS AT CAPITOL THEATRE Something new, stirring and sen- sational in screen entertainment is promised when the psychological mystery-romance, “Personal Col- umn” comes to the Capitol tonight. | Enlisting a distinguished cast ot ! outstanding screen favorites in co- starring roles, such as George San- | ders, Lucille Ball, Charles Coburn, and Boris Karloff, this subperb Hunt Stromberg production pos- sesses in good measure every ele- ment necessary - for out-of-the- ordinary film fare. ‘The story concerns an American show girl working in London, whose best friend disappears, and is thought murdered, after answering daily newspaper. Lucille Ball plays the fast-talking, alert American girl to perfection. She is willing | bait when Inspector Temple (Charles Coburn) of Scotland Yard elicits her aid to round up a dan- ,gerous maniac responsible for this tand many similar crimes. During the course of Lucille’s hair-raising adventures, she meets up with many strange, suspicious charac- ters, like Boris Karloff, Joseph Calleia, George 2Zucco and Sir Cedric Hardwich. Even George i Saunders, with whom she has a swift, overpowering romance, does not evade suspicion. But it would be unfair to give jaway the denouement of this in- triguing mystery at this point. You must see this fascinating whounit and find out for yourself! LEADERS IN B. B.
