At Southern Pines Thurs., Fri., Sat., Jan. 23, 24, 25 8:15 Matinee Saturday at 3:00 At Pinehurst “Exclusive St-ry.” the attraction at the Pinehurst Theatre Monday, January 20th, matinee and night, is full of excitement, enough good act ing to satisfy all comers and lots ot; tense action. It is the story of a re-1 porter’s campaign to wipe out a ring j of racket operators. Stuart Erwin | plays a funny but believable reporter | who goes in to a rage when his pa- per makes him retract an exclusive story about a paving racket on the advice of Franchot Tone, playboy at torney. Madge Evans, daughter of J. Farrell MacDonald, a small grocer who is terrorized by a number of racket gangsters appeals to Erwin for help and shames Tone into accept ing a special prosecutor’s job to wipe out the rackets. Investigations carry Tone into all sorts of exciting ad ventures, finally ending in the “mar riage racket” with Madge Evans. Jo seph Calleia does brilliant work as a small time racketeer who is forced to extremes and each of his scenes re main in the memory as the high lights of the film. Erwin is splendid in a cleverly written part and so is Margaret Irving as his understand ing wife. Excellent support is contri buted by William Henry, Robert Bar rat, Louise Heng’, Charles Trow bridge, and Raymond Hatton. “Prcfessional Soldier," the at traction at the Pinehurst Theatre, Wednesday. January 22nd, matinee and night, is a very enjoyable com edy. As long as kids are kids, wheth er they are six, sixteen, or sixty, this I sort of show will be enjoyed. Al though the title suggests that it ; might be one of those Marines-have- . landed affairs, it actually is decided ly otherwise. In every way, idea of I story, the way it is tcld, style of i acting:, the dialogue, action and sit- uations, is geared to provoke laught- \ er. “Professional Soldier’’ is by Da- I mon Runyon, and in theme, is comedy 1 alternating with drama, plus intri- ; gue that brings on battle. The lo- I cale is a mythical kingdom with the I U. S. Marine Corps hymn its chief ’ musical acccmpaniment. Victor Mc- Laglen, professional soldier, is hired i to kidnap the monarch as part of a I revolution and plot. He finds the I king to be Freddie Bartholomew, an ; alert youngster who thinks McLaglen and his pal Michael Whelan are Dil. linger and “Baby Face’’ Nelson. For love interest it has a crmedy romance involving the soldier and the young Jung’s nagging, shrewdish nurse, which ^ the soldier of fortune’s greatest ._^:r.scc. /-'.so i: carries a legitimate •:r/.".r.c: Cl lav*, between -Jloria Stuart and Micheal Whelan, a j newcomer to the screen. “Professional I Gcldier” is pure fun, moving in a , way that vividly suggests that Mc Laglen and Freddie Baitholomew and I all the rest had a lot of fun while making it, and will prove a tasty tid- , bit for those who like to laugh. As I an added attraction will be “The j March of Time.” "Anything Goes.” the attraction at the Pinehurst Theatre, Friday, Jan uary 24th, matinee and night, af fords Bing Crosby his best role to date. It is adapted fr:m the well known musical comedy by Howard Lindsay, and Russel Crouse, with ly- 'ics by Cole Porter, and is full of hit tunes and plenty of gags. Bing i Crosby and Ethel Merman are fea- , tured, and the background is a trans atlantic ship. The comedy character of the story is established by the oicsence of Charlie Ruggles and Ar thur Treacher. The gist of the story is that Crosby is^madly in Icve with Ethel Merman, a young lady without tickets or passports; Crosbv, in turn, is being hectically pursued by Ida Lupino, blonde menace to his roman tic ambitions with Miss Merman. In turn, accentuating the comedy moti vation, Charlie Ruggles is being trail ed by a bunch of cops and detectives. Mixed identities are involved in the windup with Crosby winning the girl in a Paramount news truck for a novelty fadeout. Other members of the cast are Grace Bradley, Robert McWade, Laura Treadwell, Margaret Dumont, Jerry Tucker and the spec ialty dancers, Sanami and Michi. Among the many numbers, Porter’s “You’re the Top” and “I Get a Kick Out of You,” and the title theme song, “Anything Goes,” are featured. Promising to be a tuneful comedy "entertainment, this picture should please everyone.

The picture represents an entirely new technique in screen mus- I icals. Heretofore Motion Picture Pro ducers have been baffled by the dif ficulty of presenting songs without ‘ slowing up the story, but Ralph Rain- 1 ger and Leo Robbins have overcome this problem. They wrote the songs to tie in directly with the dialogue. The music becomes a nat;iral extension! of the lines Miss Swarthout departs [ for the first time from her accustom-! ed operatic arias and sings frankly,' "popular” numbers in at least two in-1 stances. Her other songs are of the operetta type. Her two popular num bers are “Thunder Over Paradise” and “Don’t Tell a Secret to a Rose.” The .qtory deals with the land grants made by the Kings of Spain to their subjects in far-off California. In addi- j tion to Miss Swarthcut and John Boles, the cast contains Charles Bickford, H. B. Warner, Grace Brad-, ley, Charlotte Granville and Don Al-' varado.
