L. J uiuy L.....J i i...J Monday and Tuesday at State Theatre; The stirring history of the discov ery of oil and the development of the oil industry in America serves as a background for the strange romance of Irene Dunne end Randolph Scott in "High, Wide and Handsome." The love between Scott, a hard bitten farmer of indomitable will, and Miss Dunne, a gay, light-hearted carnival singer, which Is accented and abetted by the haunting music of Jerome Kern, makes one of the most absorbing stories the screen has seen. Scott meets Miss Dunne when she comes to Titusville - with her show, and they fall in' love without know ing it, during her stay in town. The knowledge that they are in love does not come to them until they attend a picturesque barn dance together, at which Charles Bickford, who plays a villainous teamster, kisses Miss Dunne and starts a fight with Scott. Scott persaudes Miss Dunne not to leave town with her show, and they are married in a colorful ceremony at Scott's Pennsylvania farm home. Just after their marriage, while they are on a hill where they plan to build their new home, oil gushes from Scott's oil derrick, the first one in the country. At once the city is plunged into turmoil, with farmers all over the section drilling on their property for oil. .? Miss Dunne watches in bewilder ment while her husband becomes more and more oblivious of her, more absorbed in the growth of the new industry he has discovered.'

All the farmers who have suddenly become oil producers look to him for leadership, and event ually he finds it almost impossible to spend any time at home. He , is in articulate, Incapable' of making his wife understand his duty to -his friends, or his interest in the oil that can be affored by rich and poof alike!' When the railroads begin boosting freight rates in order to freeze out the farmers and control the oil busi ness themselves, Scott is so absorbed in his problems that he apparently forgets the existence of Miss Dunne, who is terribly hurt by his apparent indifference. He finally, decides to beat the railroad's prices by building a pipe line clear to the refineries, and plunges into the new task with all his energies. It is then that Miss Dunne realizes that the love to which she has dedi cated her life is a cold thing. Her husband refuses to share his interests with her, she feefs useless to him, and in a supreme effort to, recapture his love and gayety she runs off to sing with' a carnival once more. But, when danger threatens Scott, she realizes that her love for her husband is more important than any thing else life can give her and she returns to fight for him and with him. .. - Miss Dunne and Randolph Scott are supported by a fine cast; including Raymond Walburn, William Frawley, Elizabeth Patterson: and Charles Bickford.
