 Coming tomorrow for two days, Tuesday and. Wednesday, Eight Girls in A Boat" with Dorothy Will son, Kay Johnson, Douglas Mont gomery. Walter Connolly, and Bar bara Barondles.
 The story is based on the Eu- ropean film of the same title. It adheres closely to the foreign pro- duction. The original is by Helmut Brandis with the adaptation and screen play by Lewis Foster and Casay Robinson.
 The story tells of Christa Storm a young student at a select girls school, where thoughts are all of romance. But the strong walls keep men out, and the stern rules for bid even thoughts of love. Yet Christa does meet a boy, falls in love with a result, unforeseen but inevitable.
 The boy fails her; she can not bear to tell her father and Christa is gripped by fear, lest her secret be learned. Alone without hope she breaks under the terrific weight of her burden. However with her con- fession comes one of the most un- expected climaxes ever screened.
 For co-feature we offer "The Man Trailer" with Buck Jones. The western star is seen as a hunted outlaw, who is intent upon robbing a stage coach of a shipment of gold. Pretty Cecilia Parker gives a good account of herself as ''Sally''.

 Madame Renaud was shown to a table overlooking the dance floor. Her husband would join her later, she said.

 Meanwhile. in the heart of the Paris financial district, Monsieur Renaud, bank president, leaned back in his chair and laughed at two detectives who had been try ing to tell him that his wife was running around town with a hand some gigolo.
 "I know it's your job to find her missing diamond necklace" he laughed, "but to suggest that she's in love with a gigolo - ex- plaining the loss in that way, 1t is ridiculous"
 The detectives insisted that she had been taking dancing lessons every morning from this mysteri- ous man, and to prove them wrong, Renaud phoned his wife, Liane, while they waited.

PALACE

At Polls for the last times to- day and tomorrow Sylvia Sidney and Frederic March in "Good Dame" also Jean Parker and Tom Brown in 1.-TWO Alone.

You'll laugh as you've never laughed before at Will Rog- CTS mixing love and drama. fixing his young friends romance, sing ing his troted to victory in a whirlwind finish for one of his fun- niest pictures. The supporting cast in this truly great picture con- sists of Louies Dresser, Evelyn Venable, Kent Taylor and Stepin Fetchit.
 The co-feature is ''Devil Tiger" Asia's fiercest jungle beasts clash ing in mortal combats never belor witnessed by human eyes, astouno- ing sights, sensational thrills hith- erto never seen by any man who lived to tell the tale of beasts mad with blood-lust for the survival or the fittest.
 'Devil Tger' is the record of group of people who cut their way through the tangles of the O2slatlc jungle, woven by untouched nature for thousands of years. It is the picturization of mans latest battle with the clements, that have baffled explorers for centuries. It is an expedition into bare danger, with nature and natures killers as the enemies that will not quit fighting until they are entirely sub- dued.
 This ist he setting for a story and a battle that thunders hlgh above any of the trials to which mere man has ever been submitted. It is not simple tale of a group Ill quest of terror. It is more the steady pounding of catastrophe at- ter catastrophe on the spirits of three intrepid souls until they are all but swallowed up by the rav- ages that are the jungle.
 Animals, reptiles, insects as large as your hand! These were the daily fare of the three. thrown from the safety and comfort or civilization into the menacing ele- ments of wild world they barely knew. Swamps, torrential rains the moulding rot of ages! Such was the daily accompaniment or their adventure.
