STRAND

Some of the funniest and most unusual goings on ever recorded in a motion picture will be seen in Road To Reno" co-starring Ran dolph Scott and Hope Hampton, which arrives at the Warner Bro- thers Strand theater today and to- morrow for its first Waterbury showing.
 The film tells how Linda Halliday (HOpe Hampton), temperamental grand opera star, decides to go to Reno and divorce her young ranch CT husband, Steve Fortness Ran- dolph Scott), because he insists she shall give up her career and live, on the ranch near Reno.
 Linda believes she is in love with an attractive and wealthy young stockbroker, Walter Crawford (Alan Marshall, who follows her to Reno in the hope she will marry him when the divorce is granted.
 When Linda reaches Reno she meets her obstinate young husband, Steve, who indignantly refuses to give her 8 divorce. Then Linda and her divorce addict friend, Sylvia Shane (Glenda FarrelD descend on Eteve's' ranch. They stampede his horse herd and while he is away from home persuade his fun-loving but clear-headed Aunt Minerva tHelen Brcderick) to turn the place into dude ranch.
 Beautiful Hope Hampton scores heavily in this film.
 Randolph Scott gives a convinc- ing virile interpretation of Steve" Glenda Farrell shines as Sylvia Shane" the divorcee. Alan Marshal deserves credit for his difficult role, while David Oliver, who Is crashing his first major role, makes a re- markabiy comic Salty" the cowboy who fears all women but cannot keep away from them.
 Included on the same show is an- other firSt-run picture Crime TaKes A Holiday starring Jack Holt at the head of an all star cast.
