Comedy, Music In

There is an excellent blending |
of comedy and gay music in Mon- '
ogr;\nVs “Blues Busters," newest j
| in the Bowery Boys series, which |
j opens at the Marco theatre Sun-i
day.
The fast-moving, sparkling pic

Gabriel Dell in the top supporting
roles, unfolds against the fasci
nating backdrop of a dazzling
night club.
In this comedy, the 20th which
Jan Grippo has produced for
Monogram, Huntz is the focal cha

stems.
The point of the story centers
directly on Hall, us Sach Debussy

more exact, where his tonsils

A tonsilectomy leaves Sach
with an ineffable voice, a voice
which puts him into the milliun

"Pirates 01 High
Seas" at Viccar
Modern buccaneers operating
I from a submarine, a vast treasure 1
hoard of diamonds cached away
by a ruthless war criminal and
the fighting exploits, on land and i
sea, of Buster Crabbe, are but
some of the action elements serial
fans can anticipate with relish
when Columbia Pictures "Pirates
of the High Seas" gets under way
at the Viccui Theatri Saturday
Subsequent episodes of the serial
thriller will be played every Sat
urday thereafter.
Crabbe, famous Olympic swim
ming champion who scored so im
pressively in "The Sea Hound,"
returns to the serial screen in
another remarkable demonstra
| tion of his athletic prowess.
I Crabbe swims like a fish and
dives through the air like the pro
verbial man on the flying trapeze
in what is reported to be an awe
i some display pyrotechnics. Be
I sides, he engages in numerous
! hand-to-hand combats and has
j many narrow escapes from dis
j aster before the final defeat of his
! antagonists.
The story of "Pirates of the
High Seas," brought to the serial
' screen by the same company that
gave you "Superman." is replete
I with lusty action as Crabbe, dash
! ing commander of the schooner
; Viking, sets sail for the South
I Seas with a mixed complement of
I passengers. On board his ship arc
a war criminal masquerading as a
solid citizen; a prosperous adven
turer who secretly operates the
pirate submarine which continu
ally plagues Crabbe. and Lois
Hall, beautiful blonde sister of
Tommy Farrell, operator of a
small Pacific freight line who has
asked Crabbe to come to help
him fight off modern-day bucca
neers.
Crabbe eventually discovers the
prize at stake is a priceless col
lection of jewels stowed away by
the war criminal. Harrowing dan
gets are many and hairbreadth
escapes frequent as Crabbe roars
into action to overcome seemingly
insuperable odds!
