Comedy Drama
At Local Theatre
t “Transatlantic M e r r y-G o
^ Round,” Reliance’s sparkling
now comedy drama with melo
dy, mystery and romance, stag
ed aboard a palatian ocean lin
er, comes to the Wanoca Thea
tre Wednesday.
A great cast of screen and
radio stars, hearded by Jack
Benny, Nancy Carroll and Gene
Raymond is seen in this Harry
M. Goetz-Edward Small pro
duction, which Benjamin Sto
loff directed for release
through United Artists.
H? Benny is seen as a genial
master of ceremonies, broad
casting from the high seas,
while Nancy plays Sally Marsh,
the star of his troupe, and
Raymond is seen as a young
Raffles who falls in love with
her.
Among the famous screen
and radio personalities, who
take part in Benny’s broadcasts
are Mitzi Green, in her first
grown-up role; Frank Parker,
The Boswell Sisters, Patsy Kel
ly, Jean Sargent and Jimmy
Grier and his orchestra. Ben
ny’s famous satire, “Grind Ho
tel,” is a high point of the pro
gram.
The passengers aboard the
liner include Sydney Howard,
who is known as England’s
Chaplin, playing a happy,
harmless drunk; Sid Silvers as
(Raymond’s comic confederate
working as a steward; Sidney
Blackmer as Lee Lother, a
scoundrelly Broadway racke
teer who is pursuing Sally;
Shirley Grey as a married wo
man who is infatuated with
Lother; Ralph Morgan as her
suspicious husband; and Wil
liam Boyd as an escaped gun
man who is stowing away
aboard the liner.
The mystery develops when
Lother is found dead in Sal
ly’s cabin. Suspicion falls on
each in turn, and it takes a
second murder to solve the
first. ,

The attention of farmers ev

There are, perhaps, many re
gions where it rs not feasible;
in other places, the plan will
work. It is the business of all
those who live on the farms
to-understand the program and
get in on it if possible.
“From time immorial,” says
Senator E. D. Smith, chairman
of the Senate Agricultural
Committee, “the farmer has
been exploited because he was
disorganized.”
'There is a bit of truth in the
remark, but it is not the whole
truth. The farmer is partly to
blame for the treatment he has
been given. He has much to
learn in a way of making his
voice powerful in government.
The lack of organization is
due to many factors but it has
continued, in part at least, be
cause farmers have refused to
intelligently study their own
problems and logically follow
the path necessary to cure
their evils.
