STATE

The big parade of hits is on at the Warner State theater and the crowds you see attending currently are hocking to see Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in Swing Time"
 Astonishing dancing, delightful romance an da fast moving story with the screens finest music, have always been features of an Astaire- Rogers picture and in Swing Time" these qualities have been enhanced by an even larger percentage of comedy.
 With Victor Moore, Helen Brod- erick and Eric Blore given lavish opportunities in support of the stars, laughs run in steady stream throughout the film. Moore, whose work as Public Enemy No. 13" in the New York stage hit, Anything Goes, firmly estab- 1islaed him as Broadway,s most con- sistent comedian, provides large share of the mirth as a bungling vaudeville magician whom the no less convulsing Astaire takes under his wing.
 And Miss Frederick, who ap- peared with the Astaire Rogers duo in "Top Hat, and Eric Blore, who was with them in "Top Hat" and "The Gay Divorcee" both con- tribute plenty of fun to the many screaming situations in which As- taire and Miss Rogers find them selves.
 Song hits, introduced in the pie ture, include Waltz in Swing Time" and the dance music for the Pick Yourself Up," Never Gonna Dance" and the "Banjangles of Harlem, :" dances, besides three others.

GREENWOOD NOT
 TO BE CANDIDATE

Boston, Sept. 28.-(UP)-Mayor Robert E. Greenwood of Fitchburgh will withdraw as an independent candidate for U. s. senator in the November election, 1t was reported reliably today.
 Greenwood, son-in-law of U. s. Senator Marcus A. Coolidge, was defeated by Governor James M. Curley for the democratic senatorial nomination in the recent state pri- marieS. He entered the field as an independent candidate, but a pro- test against his nominatoin papers was made by the democratic state committee. Nevertheless, Green wood boiled more than 100000 votes and his candidacy was considered an important factor in the election fight.
 Proceedings in state supreme court to prevent hearings on the protest by the state ballot law com mission were abruptly halted by Greenwood,s counsel today. Shortly before witnesses were to be sworn in before Justice Stanley E. Qua, City Solicitor Samuel M. Salny of Fitchburg told the court that he had been instructed by Greenwood to drop the case.

POLI'S

Today and tomorrow are the last opportunities that Waterburians will have of seeing "Picadilly Jim" featuring Robert Montgomery, Frank Morgan, Billie Burke and others, and here is without doubt one of the most hilarious comedies that has ever been screened. The companion feature is one that ranks in every detail with the first and it is none other than that juvenile favorite Jane Withers in another of the films you love to see her in, the title of this one is Pep per" and she has as her henchmen Irwin s. Cobb and Slim" Summer vile.
 Wednesday bring another change of program, two films will be the attraction that are superb, one TO- mantle comedy crammed with songs and laughter, and the other a very dramatic tale of the death house.
 The first film is Walking On Air" and featured are Gene Ray mond and Ann Sothern, it is the tale of 8 girl who is being forced into marriage with a foreign noble- man, and who does relish the idea, she starts out to secure an imper- senator, who will mimic and make unbearable, to her parents, the man they have selected, she selects Gene Raymond and how this blonde fav- orite leading man cuts up all through the action of the feature is a caution, and tends for your great enjoyment.
 The companion feature is Final Hour" a dramatic tale of racket, evasion of the law and fixing, even so much that a woman is in the death-house, innocent, and yet no way seems to be open to save her until the man who adores her, finds g solution, featured in this film are Ralph Bellmay and Margaret Chur- chill.
 Wednesday night will bring arl- other great Broadway stage show and with 1t the added attraction of Gus Meyers and his fiddle and then for further enjoyment there will be Freddie Hall and his weekly song fest.
