STRAND

Pat 'O'Brien in Submarine D-l and Over the Goal" conclude ther engagement at Warner Brothers Strand theater tonight. Whether or not you're superstitious seven brings you luck in this instance. For the seventh time William Powell and Myrna Loy have been co-starred at the Strand tomorrow to Saturday.
 You remember this incompatible pair in After the Thin Man. and other delicious comedies. Well, ac- cording to the word from Hollywood, their seventh hit is their greatest.
 In featured roles we have Flor ence Rice, the charming daughter of Grantland Rice, noted newspa- per sports writer; John Beal fresh from his triumph in Madame X";; the grand old trouper, Jessie Ralph, Edgar Kennedy, the hero Of the slow-burn, Sidney Toler and Barnett Parker.
 Double Wedding" is smart, modern comedy with background of exciting New York locales. It was based on the internationally successful stage play, Great Love" by Ferenc Molnar.
 The companion feature will be Hold Elm Navy" a picture as big as Annapolis itself, with Lew Ayres, Mary Carlisle, John Howard and Benny Baker. It's all here-plebes on parade, midshipmen on review. young hearts beating high with the spirit of the academy, the excite ment of June week climaxed by the football classic of them all-Army playing Navy.

STATE

Announcement is made by the management of Warner Brothers State theater that starting this week program changes will be made each week on Friday and Tuesday (instead of Saturday and Wednes- day as in the paSt). Tomorrow's show which will include "She Mar ried an Artist" and Born to the West" will play two days only and on Friday that grand hit Wells Fargo with Joel Mecca, Bob Burns and Frances Dee will head the new program to also include John Barry more in Night Club Scandal
 An extraordinary bit of news to- day, is the fact that foreign &C., tress, in her first Hollywood picture, has not been asked to run the gamut of despair, register ter TOT, disillusionment, joy wistfulness, and passion in rapid succession, and top the whole thing off with lan- guid f1utter of the eyelashes. The player who has been fortunate enough to avoid all this is Luli Deste, the Viennese actress, who good-hu- moredly makes her American debut in Columbia's charming romantic comedy She Married An Artist" :" which heads the show at the State tomorrow and Thursday only.
 Too, Miss Deste bas been lucky in that her leading man is John Boles, who is easily one of the screens more suave and engaging actors. To- gether, they cavort through gay story of famous French designer who comes to America to look up New Yorks most renowned commer- cial artist, who paid rather close at tention to her in Paris five years before.
 It's hilarious film, gay. auda- cious and completely satisfying. Be- sides the very talented Miss Deste and MT. Boles, excellent perform ances are given by Frances Drake, Helen Westley and others.
 Performances tonight conclude the State engagement of "You're Sweetheart" with Alice Faye, Anna May Wong in Daughter of Shang- hai," Edgar Bergen and Charlie Me Carthy in TWO Boobs In A Bal loon" and the pictures of the Panay bombing and sinking.

POLl'S

A romantic drama of Park Avenue and Greenwich Village with an ex- citing undercurrent is presented in RKO Radios Wise Girl' at LoeW's Poli tomorrow with Miriam Hop- klns and Ray Midland in the top roles.
 The efforts of an elderly million aire to gain the custody of his or phaned grandchildren is the moti- vatlng influence behind the story. When his methods fail to secure the two youngsters, who live with their young and struggling uncle in a Greenwich Village tenement, his daughter decides to GO the job her. self, without regard to ethics.
 Miss Hopkins, as the Wise Girl, 3 is said to combine her dramatic and | comedy talents for one of the most effective roles of her career. And Ray Midland, fast winning popular lty, is considered an ideal selection for the role of the independent and defiant artist.
 Along with its romantic theme, it's abundant humor and its heart in- terest the picture presents a side of Greenwich Village life that is seldom revealed on the screen. The "Vil- lage" has it's sincere brush and pen wielders, who eventually rise to prominence, and this aspect is faith fully shown in the film, with Mil land, Walter Abel and Quinn Will Hams as three such unknown but genuinely talented aspirants.
 Two young girls who have never before been seen on the screen also have prominent roles in the offering. Betty Philson youngster from the New York stage, and Marianna Strelby, a twelve-year old Holly wood amateur, are cast as the two children about whose custody the action revolves.
 Henry Stephenson, Alec Craig, Darcy Corrigan and other we'll known players are in"Wise Girl" Edward Kaufman produced the pie ture, which was directed by Leigh Jason, and Allan Scott wrote the screen play from the original story by Charles Norman and himself.

Hollywood Harold Lloyd likes movie well enough, except that it keeps him away from his games. The comedian is such a fiend for new pastimes that one of the large game manufacturing com panies sends him a preview sample of each of it's products.
 He invents games, too, and is a prominent amateur magician. When I visited the Professor Beware" To- cation at a suburban railroad sta- tion, Lloyd was leaning against a box car entertaining a crowd of na- tives and actors with a mental-tele- pathy trick.
 The star does the thinking, and John Summers, a member of his staff, acts as swami and tells what he's thinking about. All Hollywood is mystified by the stunt because nobody has been able to catch Lloyd giving Summers any secret infor- nation.
 In Professor Beware" Lloyd is an Egyptologist searching for the missing half of an ancient tablet he has discovered, and all sorts of adventures befall him. The scene they were shooting on location is where a freight train pulls into Jersey Junction and railroad police swarm over it looking for hoboes. Lionel Stander and Raymond Wal burn climb out of a tank car and escape by putting on a blindman act.

Do you remember, do you remember, The orange blossoms you used to drink? When buying liquor was illegal And you made gin in the kitchen sink. Do you remember do you remember, How perfectly devilish you felt When you threw gaudy party Shaking long to make the ice melt? Do you remember, do you remember, All the oranges that you squoze? Just little gin and orange juice, my dear, Nothing else in the liquid goes. Time was when you were all for it This connection so easy to mix, But now in this mixing game You've learned few news tricks.
