A LAUGH IS
COMING TO TOWN

Those who have laughed them
selves into a state bordering on apo
plexy at the uproariously impossible
antics of Joe e. Brown and Winnie
Lightner in such plays as Gold
Diggers of Broadway" Hold Every
thing" and Going Wild can have
slight conception Of what would
happen to patients unlucky enough
to elect themselves inmates Of the
health institute which the two run
in cahoots, as DR.. Winnie O'Neil
and 10 10, in "Sit Tight which
opens at the Apollo next Saturday.
There is an exciting love story,
too, in "Sit Tight, which runs its
rough course, not because Of, but in
spite of the two in charge. Claudia
Dell is the pretty little rich girl,
Sally, who, through her father, Sc
cures a better Job for Tom Weston,
played by Paul Gregory. Weston
refuses to take an unearned job,
and after quarreling with Sally,
leaves her fathers Office, which Is
in the same building as the health
institute.
on the.way out, he meets the in
gratiating 10 10, and DR.. Winnie,
who induce him to train for the
championship as a wrestler. Sally,
hearing of the plan hires a pro-
fessional tough to train with young
Weston, in an effort to show him
that he is not wrestler. The pro-
fessional mistakes 10 10 for Tommy
and this gives vent to SOM very
hilarious moments.
Others in the cast are Lotti Loder,
Hobart Bosworth, Frank Hagney
and Enitz Edwards. Lloyd Bacon
directed.

 To facilitate the cameramen's travel throughout the Alaska Rail- road belt, General Manager Otto F. Ohlson placed at the disposal of Eric Mayell and oscar E. Darling, a flat car, his own private car, and a locomotive, and shortly after the regular passenger train had departed for the Interior, the pho tographers and Colonel Ohlson's party pulled out.
 The flat car, with all photo graphic and sound equipment aboard and with the big camera at the apex point, was showed ahead of the locomotive, with the BIB No. bringing up the rear. The first stop was made at Law ing where Nellie, Neal Lawing. amid her great collection of all- Alaska game m big and little trophies, gave a vivid description of each and every one; Camera man Mayell was highly pleased with this picture, shot from the exterior against the trophy lodge on which, and in the foreground, the trophies were arranged. Darl- ing, the sound man, stated Nellie's voice recorded perfectly. Another movie sound picture was then taken in the kitchen of LaWing Lodge where the famous bell-fish line, with a live trout battling on the hook, was taken.
 The next halt was made at the Forest Ranger station where word was sent to Mrs. F. w. Williamson of the Williamson Silver Fox Ranch. With her remarkable fox 1 pet "Chummie," draped about her shoulders, Mrs. Williamson spoke into the mike" describing items of interest of silver foxes in gen. eral and "Chummie" in particular Mrs. Williamson's voice also re- corded perfectly, said Technician Darling.
