in the theater I would tell you that
here is corking good hokum theater.
1t pokes more fun at colleges than
anything we have had on the
screen. Some of the comedy be
longs to the horse-laugh variety, but
it is always theater. And a funny
thing when you study the situations
on college Humor," as Jack Oakie
getting a bachelor Of arts degree
for spending four years in college
and then working as a truck driver
in a creamery after graduation, you
will find maybe they are not so
foolish and crazy.
1t is true, the scenic background
didn't cost much, and not one sec
Ond of any scene from a scenic
standpoint can compare to Gold
Diggers" or "42d Street"
And then, why is college Humor"
such a big favorite with the fans
over the country? Many answers.
First, the cast is popular proof.
Consider these names. Bing Crosby
is no longer camera shy and he is
one Of the best known radio
crooners. Then take Jack Oakie
as Barney, who thinks college is a
sort Of night club. This man has
made millions laugh on the screen
before and he will make more laugh
i'll college Humor."
And look at this team-Burns and
Allen. They haven't so much to do,
but Oracle is as crazy as ever. Then
for good measure we have Richard
Arlen, Mary Carlisle, Mary Kohn-
man and others.
Although the atmosphere of this
college is satire and %burlesque, yet
we are able to recognize its serious
oppoSiteS in real life.
The prize football player goes
crazy over a coed sweetie, The
sweetie goes ga-ga over a grooming
professor. Too much bottle Csald
bottle did not contain milk and our
hero is kicked out of college. Then
the big football game.
One of the numbers l like best IS
The Old OK Road" and it has
been we'll developed with practically
no scenic background at all.
1t is the human simplicity Of this
nutty and wild burlesque of college
life as it does not exist that makes
college Humor" such entertaining
theater.
Let me know if I am right or
wrong.
Now at the Lyric.

one woman and then slides into
the embraces of another discomfort
ed female. Just why Joan Colby
Miss Harding) wanted to annex
such a speciman of the male for a
lifetime companion is beyond me.
If she had to sin to get a husband,
why didn't she get a real guy, so
to speak. William Powell is not
happy as John Fletcher, a male
daisy. In fact, Powell has been
slipping III definite character WORK
lately, according to my way of
thinking.
Joan frames it so that her father
walks into Johns apartment while
the two are SHINING" some more or
getting ready to. Then the author
pulls a blaze shotgun wedding idea
and Joan marches John to the altar.
Even married, John still wants
to play in other women'S drawing
rooms and bedrooms. Joan does
succeed in getting him to attend to
his shipping business. And then,
John learns that his wife tricked
him into marriage.
Then the big bust-up with the
other woman not only around the
corner, but in the same room with
the wife. Oh, hum, Of course.
there is the silly Hollywood ending
for little wife and foolish hubby.
Sets are nice. Direction and act
ing better than the story. But wait
this picture has box office draw
ing power because Miss Harding is
in the cast. Struggle as she is ca
