This new laugh film "Firemen,
Save My Child will be shown at
the Gala Theatre next Sunday.
AS uniformed laugh makers, Bee
ry and Hattono today stand without
peers In the film world. After an
nearing in doughboy garb and then
in naval whites and blues, they have
temporarily left the federal service.
This time they're wearing the fire
fighters garb,
What these two have done with
fire trucks, hose and water is de-
ciared to keep the audience con-
vulsed in riot OF laughter from the
opening shot to the final fadeout.
They find themselves indicted into
the fire department wholly without
their own volition, and from the
time they make their first slide
down the pole in answer to an
alarm, they proceed to crash through
regulation and tradition with such
careless abandon that they all but
wreck one of the country's finest
fire departments.
