'TARNISHED ANGEL STRAND OFFERING
'Lawless Valley" on Same Program Beginning
 Tomorrow

Today marks your final opportun- ity to see Mickey Rooney, Lewis Stone and other members of the Hardy family in their latest adven- ture, Out West With The Hardys";; also Preston Foster, Tony Martin and Phyllis Brooks in the hilarious comedy up The River" currently at the Warner Brothers Strand the- ater.
 Plenty of excitement and action is promised theater-goers who at- tend the Strand over the weekend for once again this popular theater brings to its patrons thrilling double feature bill that ranks with the best of them. Incidentally, both features will be shown in this city for the first time tomorrow and Sunday.
 Spotlighting the bill is the new and unusual drama "Tarnished An gel" starring Sally Eilers, in what is said to be her greatest and most sensational role, supported by such featured players as Ann Miller, Lee Bowman, Alma Kruger and Paul Guilfoyle.
 Ever since she scored her first great success in Bad Girl.., Miss Eilers has been noted for her pow erful dramatic performances, and in this her latest vehicle she has perhaps her strongest role to date, being cast as a night club enter tainer and a "come-on" girl for gamblers who in 8 series of thrilling adventures is forced to leave town and change her mode of living.
 The story presents in vivid fash- ion the operations of an underworld gang in religious racketeering, and how they work hand-in-glove with contortionists who pose as cripples and are "miraculously cured" dur ing the revival meetings, to the awe of the spectators and the enhanced profits from the collection.

NEW TECHNICOLOR
 FILM COMES HERE
Kentucky" Opens To- morrow at LOew's POli
 With Impressive Cast

Opening at Loew's Poli tomorrow, Is Kentucky, one of the most im- portant productions of the new 1889 Hit Parade. This picture has been photographed entirely in glorious technicolor and boasts an impressive cast of artists.
 The story opens, in the manner of a prologue, at the outbreak of the Civil war in the South. Kentucky is divided in its allegiance between the Union and the Confederacy, which leads to a bitter feud between two families that had been neighbors and friends for generations. From this point, the story spans several decades and resumes with tale of today. The manner in which a boy and girl, trained to despise each other, overcame generations of bit ternesS and isun d erstanding, makes heart-warming narrative and builds to the dramatic and col orful climax of the famed Kentucky Derby, actually photographed at Churchill Downs in glorious techni- color for the first time.
 Loretta Young and Richard Greene head an imposing cast in the romantic leads. Loretta accounts for one of her finest performances, and has never looked more breathtak- ingly beautiful, while Richard Greene adds another triumphant performance in the march that has made him the screens fastest rising favorite. Walter Brennan scores heavily with his most powerful char acterization in role that offers wealth of opportunity for grand trouping. Others among the featured players who account for particularly notable performances include Doug las Dumbrille, Karen Morley, Russell Hicks, Charles Waldron and Moroni Olsen.
 The second smash hit on the pro- gram. "The Girl Downstairs" will unfold the screens most delightful entertainment in some time, and features Franciska Gaal and Fran chot Tone.
 The picture gives the Continental Miss Gaal her best opportunities to date and she makes the most of them, endowing her performance as the scullery maid with charm, an in- gratiating spirit of comedy and a sympathic understanding.
 The story of '"The Girl Down. stairs" presents a gay young cosmo- politan who falls in love with the daughter of a wealthy old man in Switzerland. Tone is extremely ca pablo as the modern Lothario and Rita Johnson is delightful as the debutante. Walter Connolly gets laughs as the excitable father.
 Coming to a triumphant close at Loew,s Poli tonight is "Sweethearts'' Victor Herbert,s operetta filmed en- tirely in technicolor and co-starring Jeanette Macdonald and Nelson Eddy.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-01-06

Bowman, an infatuated play-boy, becomes involved with the police over the activities of her jewell thief employer and is forced to leave town. Unable to get work as an entertainer or actress because of police surveillance, she changes her identity and becomes a revival ist, soon winning fame and fortune by her "circus" tactics and her trickery.
 However, the police get on her trail again, as do her old associates and the story builds up a gripping conclusion that will have audiences sitting on the edges of their seats.
 Sharing romantic honors with Miss Eilers is Lee Bowman, Miss Miller and Guilfoyle portray Miss Eilers' companions in her so-called racket, and other important parts are handled by Jonathan Hale, Jack Arnold, Robert Gleckler and a new find" little Janet Dempsey, as a crippled girl.
