TWELVE TOP BANKERS IN
 PRODUCTION
Double Bill Includes Mar ry the Girl,'' and Where
 Trails Divide,' Coliseum

Marry the Girl" rollicking rce-comedy into which Warner Bros. have put a wealth of funny players, is showing at the Coliseum Theatre tonight.
 Rarely does any movie have cast including such top-rankers as Frank McHugh, Hugh Herbert, Mary Roland, Micha Auer, Alan Mowbray Allen Jenkins, Carol Hughes, Olin Rowland, Teddy Hart, Hugh O'Connell, Charles Judels and Louise Stanley.
 These, plus a director who spe- cializes in comedy - William Me Gam, whose most record work was "Penrod and Sam" m"-made the most of the opportunities afforded by a very witty screen play adapted by Sir Herzig, Pat c. Flick and Tom Reed from a novel by Edward Hope.
 In the second feature, there are two actors who fame playing the same part-that of the big brother in 'Tol'able David met on the set of Monographs Where Trails Di- vide" recently.
 They are Tom Keene, star of this fast moving feature When Trails Divide" and Warner Richmond, who is also featured in the same film
 Where Trails Divide" concerns the story of an aspiring lawyer, played by Keene, who tries to bring law and order to a western town without the aid of siX-shooters. However, when he finds his brother involved with some of the crooked politicians, he forgets his Black stone and loads his Colts.

DOUBLE BILL FEATURED AT
 CAPITOL NOW
Rhythm in the Clouds and 'Windjammer' Open
 Here Tonight

The Capitol Theatres offering for tonight and tomorrow is a double bill featuring "Windjammer" and Rhythm in the Clouds, a new musical from the Republic lot with Patricia Ellis and Warren Hull in the leading roles.
 The Republic studios, which have been specializing in gay and viva cious musicals of late, are said to have outdone themselves in this new production which has refreshing plot and plenty of tilting tunes, in- cluding Don't Ever Change" and 1.-TWO Hearts Are Dancing" by Lou Handman and Walter Hirsch, and Hawaiian Hospitality" by Harry Owens. All three of these songs are already popular on the air waves.
 "Windjammer," the second fea- ture, is an exciting saga of the sea, starring George O'Brien, popu- lar outdoor star, in one of his most dynamic roles
 Sequence after sequence is packed with break taking action and vig- orous romance with a background of the Pacific Ocean.
 O'Brien, who has won countless scores of fans as a hero of west ern films, proves himself equally reliable in this story of the sea. Seldom has he been more virile. The turbulent background of a storm at sea, involving an en- tanglement with a crew of surly ruffians, provides an ideal vehicle for his sterling talents.
